The siterunner interprets the Richie Rich universe as a CrapsackWorld where the Rich family has gained a total monopoly on every sort of product imaginable, and have created a very large gap between them and the poor. Meanwhile, the family also conducts horrifying genetic experiments, including but not limited to pun-based animals and [[TheyKilledKennyAgain recreations of Richie himself]]. All this and more await within the archive of the blog.
