Toad suck, ding dong, and Booger Hole are pretty weird.

If you have been to northern Cal, you'd know that Garlic City proves itself to be so: there's garlic smell all over wherever you drive in the city.

And I don't  know why some Cal residents were against the Siriracha maker for creating such chili smells from its factory.

I hardly smell Siriracha in California. I remember the 90s my family and I always visit my relatives in Stockton and Fresno we always smell quav nyuj nearby the highway. We saw cows munches on the grass field.

Garlic city is not a city but Gilroy is, but that isn’t weird lol

Oh I know that Harney Lane well. When I lived on Bernay Court in Stockton, I used West Lane to get to my school, Tokay and would cross that Harney Lane every time...

Yep, mini Napa (Central Valley version)...
