Now it gets a little complicated. There are a whole whack of stories to choose from. I'll try to organize them.
Laughing Matter is a series of stories about a fictional suburban town. Located to the north of West Utopia, East Utopia is both affluent and egalitarian. Every house is built on the same model with a variety of facades to help the citizens find their way home. Every lot is exactly the same size and shape. There's a parkette on every corner. But life is East Utopia is decidedly different.
