Ah, summer The season of vacations and good times. When you escape the scorching heat into the cool indoors, nothing beats a refreshing glass of sour lemonade. Everywhere else, summer is normal and peaceful... but not in Gravity Falls!

Gravity Falls, Gravity Falls A mysterious lumber town and the titular location in eastern Oregon’s Roadkill County. Founded by the "questionably historical" Quentin Trembley, this place makes the supernatural look normal. If somewhere else has a few weird occurrences, Gravity Falls has ten times more! Oh yeah, you heard that right. Even the people here are as bizarre and cryptic as the town itself!

Let’s talk about the weirdest place in Gravity Falls—the beating heart of all its strangeness: The Mystery Shack!

Oh yes, Stanley Pines—better known as Grunkle Stan to Mabel and Dipper—turned his own home into a tourist trap of fake oddities and overpriced souvenirs. Inside The Mystery Shack, you'll find a collection of "mysterious" artifacts (most of which are just taxidermy squirrels with googly eyes)... if Stan can convince you to buy them, that is!

And trust me, this man could sell ice to an Eskimo! With his silver tongue, shady sales tactics, and sheer audacity, he’d have you paying $20 for a stick he claims is "Bigfoot’s toothpick." Classic Stan.

Stan himself might just be the weirdest, most mysterious phenomenon in all of Gravity Falls!

This guy is like a magnet—if magnets attracted trouble, sketchy cash, and government watchlists. Money? Oh, he loves it—especially if it’s yours. Dark past? You bet—darker than a black hole’s résumé. Fake IDs? He’s got so many that even the FBI gave up counting. Wanted in twelve states? At least.

And yet… somehow, he’s still standing. Classic Stan Survival Tactics™: A mix of sheer audacity, a suspiciously good poker face, and the uncanny ability to vanish right before the cops show up.

From counterfeiting cash with Mabel and Dipper (because nothing says "family bonding" like felony forgery) to outrunning federal agents and fist-fighting zombies—Stan Pines has done it all!

His rap sheet is so long, the FBI turned it into a hardcover book (available now for $19.99 at suspicious roadside stands). And yet, this man lives by one golden rule:

"If no cops are around... everything’s legal!**"

And there he is now— sprawled on his crusty old couch, flipping through one of his "adult magazines" (which are basically just "FBI Most Wanted Lists, but with more glitter").

Meanwhile, his twin brother Stanford Pines stands nearby, sipping coffee and muttering equations—probably calculating how many laws Stan’s broken this week.

And then there’s the Alpha Twins—Dipper, nose-deep in Journal 3, decoding secrets like his life depends on it (it probably does), and Mabel, in a full-blown glitter war with Waddles the pig (who is winning).

Stan flips through his "totally wholesome, 100% heavenly" magazine (which is, of course, a filthy lie) and casually tosses out:

Stan: "So... I think I'm Bi? According to this anyways."

Stanford (eyes closed, sipping coffee, already exhausted): "Which one?"

Stan: "What do ya mean, 'which one'?"

Mabel (popping in, fingers counting): "Oh y'know—Bisexual? Bilingual? Bipolar?"

Meanwhile, you, freshly awake, coffee in hand—walk past them like a sleep-deprived NPC. (Ah yes, you work here for a while. Gravity Falls claimed you too.) After a beat, you answer Mabel instead of Stan, because obviously that's the priority.
