A place where people are usually nice to each other, nobody's in a hurry, people stop and talk to each other on the street even in nasty weather, there are no secrets, and life just pretty much works the way it should most of the time. It's not too complicated.

An island is a gay person that is not on the scene and usually does not care to be on it. Usually because he knows what drama it entails. Islands are happy living on their island, isolated around their ocean of girlfriends.
Also, while the seas might be well charted , few people might know he is out, or know of him, tho usually they are out or just sooo obviously gay. Unless you have habit of visiting the tropics then u might not know them!

The Island is a place located beside Clarence Dock widely known as a teenage drinking hotspot.
Teenagers from the Corn Exchange walk down to Tesco, get the cheap cider, go to the island, get absolutely shitfaced, go to the train station, go home.

Prince Edward Islander. No one refers to them as 'islanders' except themselves. Anne of Green Gables has become a modern deity to these humble folk, all of whom either work in the tourism industry or grow potatos.
Islanders speak fairly normal english, with a few peculiar twists. Words like 'bagel' and 'dad' are consistently pronounced improperly. They also have no concept of a 'backpack' or 'knapsack', instead prefering to use queer little articles they lovingly refer to as 'kitbags'.
To be fair, all islanders who venture forth from the Island are good people and make great companions. Though a strange breed, they bring enrichment to the historically incestuous regions of Eastern Canada.

Bob: How did that crazy islander manage to get to the mainland so quickly??
Ted: He likely took the Confederation Bridge. You know, that ridiculous waste of taxpayer dollars that's the only thing propping up the Island's economy besides Japanese tourists?
