A term used for the region around Albany, New York, for describing its washed-up, has-been (if it isn't actually a never-was, never-will-be) nature and unsuitability as a place to grow up, raise a family or grow old. The trash is whiter than the snow. The guidos/guineas/wops rival those in NYC for inability to be severed from their families. Most whites are actually at least as racist and/or homophobic as the stereotypical Southern white. The school districts are overwhelmingly segregated. If I could go back in time, be reborn elsewhere and never live in the Crapital Region, I would make that choice right now. Remember that Albany is an anagram for "by anal," which is how you take it when you live in the Crapital Region.
Crapital Region residents think the world revolves around them. Last I checked, it revolved around the sun.
Get the crapital region mug.
