  • Pop-Culture Urban Legends: A rather infamous rumor is the "fact" that the episode "City of Frownsville" was meant to be dedicated to the victims of 9/11, with the so-called "proof" being a memoriam card that looks like this. However, many fans have stated that they didn't recall seeing any memoriam card; not on TV recordings, not on the DVD, or even on any contemporary sources. As it turns out, that piece of trivia was made up by a fan of the show that edited various wikis, even including the aforementioned memoriam card, which is littered with spelling and grammar errors, is in the wrong aspect ratio, and has a R.I.P. to the World Trade Center, with the card using the British-English spelling "centre" instead of the American-English "center". The fact that the episode (along with "Sun Scream") was produced in 2004, three years after 9/11 occurred, should be another red flag, since 9/11 wasn't as tragic of an event as it was back in 2001; at this time it was merely a talking point instead of a massive catastrophe.
