cigarette boat

A type of speed boat originally designed for racing on the open ocean, 30-50 feet long and about 8 feet wide. Almost always equipped with at least 1000hp but often up to 2000hp, modern versions can go well over 100 mph. Drug runners made them famous in the 1970's and 80's but they are now popular as extremely expensive ($250,000+) show-off toys mainly for rich, otherwise blue collar people like construction contractors and business owners. The culture surrounding them strongly embraces decadent drinking, drugs, sex, and partying, and sometimes boating too. Most of them are used on lakes way too small and calm compared to their original purpose.

When I win the lottery I'm going to buy a cigarette boat and take it to the sand bar at Havasu.

Scottsdale

Scottsdale, Arizona. Even though it is just a dry, hot and dusty place with no natural resources, people there are often snobbish and think it is a very prestigious place to live because it has a lot of man-made features like golf courses and it is more expensive than other places in Arizona.

Those girls we met in Scottsdale were superficial bitches.

Minneapolis

Minneapolis, Minnesota. A fairly large city built in a place where it can snow any month of the year except June, July and August and the temperature can reach as low as -40F/-40C during the Winter. The culture is a strange combination of liberal politics and relatively conservative family values. A strong sense of self-important nationalism is present in the local culture and many years ago the residents dubbed it the "Mini-apple" as though it is somehow a smaller version of the Big Apple, New York City.

I froze my ass off in Minneapolis while everyone kept telling me how great it was there.

Fernet

Fernet-Branca liquer. An alcoholic drink with a cult-like following in some urban locales. Fomulated as a patent medicine in the 1800's, some claim it is like absinthe, but it is really just an after-dinner bitters liquer with the extra punch of a variety of 40+ secret herbs including some that are known to have psychological effects such as Saffron, Ginseng and St. John's Wort. It does seem to have some effect beyond just being alcohol but it's nowhere near as psychedelic or narcotic as it is rumored to be. Some people also consider it to be a great hangover cure.

I housesat for this guy in Hollywood and he had a case of Fernet in his liquor closet.
