An annual survey conducted by Business Insider magazine has concluded that Ashburn, Va. is the nation's most obscene city -- stealing the crown from last year's winner, Herndon.
The survey used comedian George Carlin's famous "seven dirty words you can never say on television," plugged them into Google Trends, and then assigned a score to cities across the country based on the frequency of foul terminology in their Web searches. This year, Ashburn took the prize.
(Herndon stayed on the list, taking third place, according to the survey.)

That is just bizarre. I live in between Ashburn and Herdon, double whammy!Actually, you're safe. Since their evil forces cancel each other out, you're in the "Neutral Zone"!
That's the good news!
The bad news is: you can't ever leave! If you go outside the Neutral Zone, you're sure to be "roasted"!!!
