Either real ("Spitting beverages across the table at restaurants") or made up, like these:
Easy way to mix house paint: Duct-tape it to the wheels of your car
Your favorite style of hospital gown: Wide, Wider or Falling Off Completely
Why are orange trees green-colored?
Cleaning vinyl LPs with sandpaper: Fine or coarse grit?
Maybe this one?

No, it looks like somebody had mangled up two random syllables to make up "Fransokyo".

As explained in the thread, it's the city in Big Hero 6. It is basically San Francisco if it was in Japan (so more high rise, pagoda shapes on the Golden Gate Bridge, lots of freeways).

('Food prices in Brazil', this is real).
In Brazil, an apple or a banana might be R$0.50, or 0.50 real. That doesn't mean it's half fake, though.

Wouldn't this mean that every single one of these posts that quotes either of the first two posts and/or my post be deleted? I mean, they all have the word "Alanland" in them. :bigass:

It is possible that he is a kid. I've heard that children when playing video games don't care about grammar simply because they want to have fun. It might be similar on Forums.
Any funny funny thread titles you find on other forums, or make up your own, like this:
Punishing uncooperative golf clubs: Snap them over your knee or throw them into the water hazard? (Not that I play golf myself but I like to watch the PGA Tour from time to time and I enjoyed that wild British Open this week! :clap:)
They don't have to be actual threads, of course.
My favorite thread on another board was simply titled "Drunk posting."
Not a thread title, but one of my absolute favorite newspaper headlines of all time: "Chess with golf clubs and a frilly dress in the rain."
This was the headline to a column a friend and former sports editor at a newspaper where I worked wrote about watching a golf tournament on TV and trying to explain to his mother what was happening.
Newpaper headline. The then governor of Wisconsin making many vetoes in the budget was the intended meaning of the headline, but the typesetter forgot to set an important space:

Guess when he has to use the bathroom, the act of him trying to results in an explosion. I don't think they'll be laughing when they've got all that brown smoke in their face.

That newspaper headline is from 1991. Probably a cut-and-paste job where the headline was typeset on a phototypesetting machine, such as a CompuGraphic TrendSetter, and the composition person had to cut it out, run it through the waxer, and then paste it on the layout sheet.

The smell of hot wax was OK. The smell of old phototypesetting paper developing chemicals, not so much.
