Ticonderoga

A small town located in upstate New York somewhere in the balls of the Adirondak Mountains. Ticonderoga is basically the Bronx of small towns in upstate New York. Kids roam the dirty streets of downtown Ti with zero ambition. Everyone walks around like they are in fear of fellow pedestrians even though everyone knows everyone because no one ever leaves the town once you are in it. The amount of water that is consumed compared to the amount of alcohol in this town is approximately 2:1. The one possitive thing about it however is that every female displays whoreish behavior, so there is no shame after you just shagged one of Ti's finest because.. " Hey, they're all whores anyway so what did I actually do wrong. " The guys in this town however.. wait.. nevermind.. Oh yeah and there alot of drugs and underage partying that goes down. The local cops won't do shit because they are a joke but you might want good cardio when the state troopers roll up becuase those bastards are like sprinting deer and you are on a treadmill mother fucker.

Tesco Value Lemmings

The Tesco Value Lemming is the natural evolution of the ordinary lemming, sped up by the effect of nuclear radiation from Tesco's main power source. The Tesco Value Lemming is blue and white, and leaps off doorsteps and low shelves.

Occasionally more daring ones can be bred which will jump off fences, windowsills or use tiny bikes to leap over pits of spikes or flames. They are generally taken as the alpha males of the group, or "shop floor", until the mis-judge a jump and plummet to their death in the frozen foods section.
