Doing research on my home town, I found this.
Edited on Fri Feb-02-07 05:34 PM by graywarrior
Lynn, MA
A dunghole masquerading as a city a few miles north of Boston. The population of Lynn is made up entirely of prostitutes, drug addicts, drug dealers, illegal immigrants, con artists, pregnant 14 year olds, deadbeat teenage dads, welfare cheats, and vagrants. The only industries that flourish in this squalid cesspool of a city are prostitution, drug dealing, arson, and pit bull fighting. There was hope for Lynn when a massive fire leveled much of downtown many years ago. Unfortunatly several more conflagrations or possibly a dirty bomb are required before this sub-human, third world hell-hole can be salvaged.

Bwaha hahahah aha hahahah ahaha ah aha a O, Jesus that's funny....*snort, hic, snort*

And every word is true.

Well, most of it.

4. Look, by the same writer. And my sister lives in Nova Scotia, It must be us.
Greatest & most beautiful province in Canada. No people, we all had to go to Boston to find work, but the most breath-taking scenery in the world. Too bad we're continually screwed over by a**hole politicians in Ottawa, and powerful interests in western Canada who sh*t on us. Nova Scotia (and NB & PEI) are even more isolated from the rest of Canada by those crying limp-wristed pussy frogs in Queerbec who won't stop whining, so pretty soon we'll have to join the U.S. and become the 7th New England state. They do more for us than the rest of Canada anyway. Hell, we're already part of Red Sox Nation. We'll NEVER be fans of the Blow-Jays or the not so dearly departed Expos. Nova Scotia rocks, the rest of Canada can kiss our asses.

9. Found my town there too...
Sheboygan 1 up, 3 down

A small, boring little town north of Milwaukee, and south of Green Bay. Theres nothing in Sheboygan, yet Walmart wants 2 Supercenters. With little to do at night, teens play drinking games, eat at Jalisco's, or hang out at friends houses. Meanwhile people that can legally drink find themselves at bars, killing there livers, and spending way to much money.

"What should we do tonight?"
"I dont know, sheboygan sucks"
"Does anyone have booze or a party?"
"Nope"
"Lets go to jalisco's then, im hungry."

:rofl:

12. Here's what it says about Calgary
Concrete city located 51°03' latitude and 114°05' longitude in Alberta, Canada.

The city is a giant network of poorly planned and poorly maintained road systems, causing mass congestion in a city with only 900,000 people. It sports a bare minimum 'tram' system which does not even reach the airport, and is often littered with homeless people who can ride the trains for free in downtown.

The homeless dominate the north-eastern downtown core, and even have their own purpose built hotel, with rates starting at $0 per night. The homeless population can be seen killing each other outside the Cecil Hotel.

Older suburbs are beginning to show their age and are the shanty towns of Calgary. Lack of city investment is aiding their rapid demise, and fueling the local criminal population.


Pretty close, especially the road system part. Then I looked up "Calgarian:"

A typical Calgarian forms part of a giant collective or hive mind. Unlike the Borg, it is almost impossible to become assimilated into this 'old boys network'.

They have robotic tendancies and will eat meals at the same time as their peers. Everything is perfect for the Calgarian, and they rarely find the need to discover the world beyond the Calgary city limits; preferring to visit the zoo for the 1019th time.

The Calgarian often drives a large pick up truck, although rarely uses the rear box to transport cargo. SUVs are becoming more popular, and often driven by mothers.

The lower class Calgarian is often distinguished by their appearance; often sporting a large greasy mullet topped with a 'Molson Canadian' baseball cap. These are often spotted around areas known as Dover or Forest Lawn.

Musical tastes are limited to country, 'lite rock' and US-style Hip hop and clothing fashions are often 2-3 years behind other major centers in the world.

That was great hockey last night eh?


That's dead-on.

13. this about peoria.
Edited on Fri Feb-02-07 06:57 PM by xchrom
1. peoria
24 up, 28 down

Used in place of "shit" or "ass" or any other word that denotes a foul odor. Derived from the fact that Peoria, IL has a distinct, nasty stench that can only be experienced if you live there.

Man, it smells like peoria in here!
Dude, you need to shower... you stink like peoria!
by I go to BU, I know Sep 28, 2004 email it




2. Peoria
15 up, 28 down

The city of Peoria, Illinois. Also known as P-town. Basically a real-world equivalent of Spoon River, as the bulk of the population consists of people with little money, a McJob, and no hope.

Peoria is also the home of Bradley University, a pretty good private school. However, BU is overpriced and full of jocks, preps, and emo kids.

"Why did he hang himself, officer?"
'Well, he lived in Peoria."

25. Would you believe I first heard that on a Honolulu city bus?
And I grew up in Conn., or as it's also known, Massachusetts Jr. Turned out the driver was from somewhere in Mass. originally, and this woman in front was from Lynn.

27. Mine is dead on
Pickerington

"Boring little city. However, no matter how much people hate Pickerington, they are still thankful not to be living in Reynoldsburg. People who live there are also constantly mocked for being better then everyone else....at everything.

Friend "Man i hate living in Pickerington"

Friend 2 "But at least you dont live in Reynoldsburg. Look on the bright side, by living here, you are better by association"



Kind 0f a neighboring city/school thing...plus, where I live is a snotty enclave of a lot of people who live WAY beyond their means...ginormous houses, cars for every family member...no furniture.
