I saw people mentioning "Gas Town" like it's a well-known meme and every time I searched it the top result was the GAS coin and I was like what's going on, why is everyone talking about a meme coin, what's even the root that is being memecoined here.

Well now I know and I need to puke, thx David, I love/hate you
