[[Stanley the Tool]] named this world as '''Stupidworld'''.	+	The Universe [[Parson\|Parson Gotti]] came from. Circumstantial evidence suggests [[Charlie]] and [[Judy Gale]] may also be from this universe. It's generally similar to the [[Real World\|real world]], but part of the same fictional metaverse of Erfworld (the story). [[Stanley the Tool]] named this world as '''Stupidworld'''.
		+
		+	Given that Charlie (like Parson) understands leetspeak, as well as the Stupidworld references inherent in Erfworld names, it is likely he is familiar with Parson's World. Further evidence for this supposition comes in the fact that Erfworlders are conscious of Charlie's "otherness," much as they are conscious of Parson's "otherness." Like Parson, Charlie seems to have some capacity bend, or work around the rules of Erfworld. Moreover, he appears to feel some degree of kinship with Parson. Finally, Judy's account of the history of Efbaum implies that Charlie held a role analagous to the Wizard of Oz. Just as the Wizard was a man from "a" stupidworld, who found himself transported to the fantastical land of Oz; so also Charlie may be a man from "the" Stupidworld, who found himself transported to the fantastical land of Erfworld.

	Given that Parson comes from Ohio and Judy comes from Kansas, it is likely that their home planets are one and the same. However, Judy is unusually short for a Stupidworlder and her name is the sort of reference Parson would be capable of recognizing as one of Erfworld's jokes, possibly implying an alternate version of Stupidworld. On the other hand, Parson also has a reference for a name, with "Parson A. Gotti" being an anagram of "protagonist".

On the other hand, Parson also has a reference for a name, with "Parson A. Gotti" being an anagram of "protagonist".

	Given that Judy wears an old fashioned dress, is surrounded by Wizard of Oz references, and her description of Kansas as "flat, windy, pig-boop smellin’ rural Kansas", it is also possible that Judy is from early 20th century Stupidworld, as opposed to Parson who is clearly from the early 21st century.
