    hahah the imperial government of norton 1
    promises to pay the holder thereof, the sum of 10 MUTHAFUCKIN' DOLLA'S! in the year 1880 with interest at 5 per cent, per annum, from date, the principal and interest to be convertible, at the option of the holder, at maturity, into 20 years 5 per cent. Bonds, or payable in GOLD MUTHAFUCKIN' COINS!
    Given under our royal hand and seal
    hand dated and signed by Emperor Norton himself.

    insanity.
    also this is clearly 10 dollar banknote number 6, as indicate by the number 6 up in the top left corner.

    Jim Norton is a comedian who wants to shame fuck Ann Coulter. Funny stuff.

    Frank Chu is a pretty awesome crazy person. I see him almost every day.
    Frank believes that he and his family have been filmed for years now without their knowledge and the show has aired as "The Richest Family". He found out that he was a star (and appeared on the cover of Newsweek, Time, etc.) because California Correctional Officers who were really movie stars who were really KGB agents told him---through ESP. In fact, nearly all the movie stars have ESP. Frank is not from another galaxy and never contends (sic.) to be. He hasn't even visited them. He is aware of them (possibly) through ESP being sent to him by Soviet ex-presidents (alive and dead/resurrected) and KGB agents. Clinton, Hillary, and even Chelsea are "guiltied" of being in collusion with the first 12 galaxies away from our galaxy, while Frank is being aided by the Zegnotronic (120 galaxies away)

    Chu's eccentricities are also reminiscent of San Francisco icon Emperor Norton. Like Norton, Chu is embraced by the city, and he dines and drinks for free at various city establishments.

    That is not right
