One of the richest, pure raced communisities in the world. The residents usualy have a rather short sighted view of things, but overall, despite being slightly self centered, are good people. Do not expect to see many minorities, and any that you do have either been dregded of any ethnic traces, or are shunned quickly from the "in" crowd. Numerous exclusive country clubs dot the landscape of Lake Forest, or the "LF" as residents call it.
There are two major high schools in the area, a boarding school called Lake Forest Academy, where most of the students are boarders from out of state. The other high school is the public school, called Lake Forest High School. This establishment provides a good mix of rich children and the leff afluent of the area. "Dude, let's hang out in LB (lake Bluff) this weekend, I just need to get out of Lake Forest for awhile..."

April 28, 2008 Urban Word of the Day
An infatuation that develops out of close-quarters operation with another person. "I swear I'm in love with this girl from Philosophy class. I've been sitting next to her for like three weeks and it's obvious we're meant for each other."
"Well do you know anything else about her? I bet you've just made up a life outside of class for her in your head. You're getting caught up in a short-sighted proximity infatuation man, just wait a couple weeks after class is over and you won't even remember her." |

THE TRUE DEFINITION OF PUNK.

A Punk Manifesto by Greg Graffin I have never owned a record label, nor directed a successful merchandise company, so I don't pretend to be an expert on marketing. I have evolved through my craft as a songwriter, but others have labeled it and marketed it and made it neat for consumption. Although I have made money from Punk, it is a modest amount when one considers the bounty that has been bestowed on the companies that promote Punk as some sort of a product to be ingested. It has always been my way to de-value the fashionable, light-hearted, impulsive traits that people associate with Punk, because Punk is more than that, so much more that those elements become trivial in the light of human experience that all punkers share. Since it has been a part of me for over half of my life, I think the time has come to attempt a definition, and in the process defend, this persistent social phenomenon known as Punk. It is astounding that something with so much emotional and trans- cultural depth has gone without definition for so long, for the roots of Punk run deeper, and go back in history farther than imagined. Even in the last two decades, it is difficult to find any analysis of the influential effect that Punk Rock had on Pop Music and youth culture. And rarer still are essays detailing the emotional and intellectual undercurrents that drive the more overt fashion statements that most people attribute to Punk. These are some of the w... |

| 42. | ecotard | ||
|
Someone so enamored with ecology that they cannot understand common sense or reality. Example; Ecotards = idiots that burn down wood-frame buildings under construction to protest environmental policies. This irresponsible and short sighted act, not to mention being highly illegal, puts innocent lives at risk, wastes forest products that it would appear that they would want to protect, causes air and ground water pollution, causes increased insurance costs to the entire building industry and related increased building costs to society as a whole. These are some of the issues that an Ecotard does not comprehend in their single-minded and ill-conceived quest to "protect" the environment.
