For some reason, this, from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, has been on my mind recently...
The Outside of the Asylum

The Outside of the Asylum is the home of Wonko the Sane. Designed to keep the outside world enclosed when he realised that it had gone mad, it was made entirely inside out, going so far as to make a visitor park on the carpet. Outside (the house, not the Asylum) are bookshelves, paintings "made to soothe," and some semi-circular three legged tables. The roof is decorated with upward hanging chandeliers. Wonko refuses to ever leave the Outside of the Asylum.

It is inside the Outside of the Asylum (if that hasn't confused you) that there is a garden area, with small trees, brick walls, and some well kept gutters.

The Outside of the Asylum is in California, looking over the Pacific Ocean.

Americans often assume people from other parts of the world will have the same general knowledge as them, but we don't. For example, I always knew Florida was America's penis, but didn't realise the Florida panhandle was its scrotum.
