a phrase used to identify a fool who is arrogantly in charge of nothing important, or someone trying to protect something that has either little or imaginary value. They could be dangerous if the item of value or position of power is challenged. Often said from a distance or after a weird confrontation.

examples are:
Gang members who "own" the block.
People who get engaged to married folk.
Anybody who goes on Jerry springer or the Maury Povich show.

A town with little to no value. Very likely that a stop in the hodunk town will bring weird occurances along with a banjo song from deliverance. To be used only while on a road trip.

A fun and interactive Facebook game. Gaining coins and XP is the main objective of this great game, and also to continue to reach higher levels. The higher level you are, the more options of seeds, animals, trees, etc you can buy.

If there was a hell this town would be the gate way. Most of the IE or 909 is a better and safer place to live because all the trash sold their average houses and moved to a new 3500 sqf track home in Hesteria opps I mean Hesperia.

Nestled in "Limestone Country", deep in the heart of South Central Indiana, you'll find Bloomington. Home of Indiana University, Bloomington also earned the "Tree City USA" designation, in 1979. We don't like to brag, but, Bloomington was the location of the last television assembly plant in the US, before RCA's French masters decided to move operations "south of the border". Keeping in tune with nature, Bloomington has adopted an "organic growth strategy," for city planning. Haphazard street nomenclature and numbering are the norm. Just try to get from West 3rd St to East 3rd St, it can't be done. If you got some cash, the East Side is the place for you. Your kids will go to the best schools and you'll have great access to the Mall. It's a transplanted suburbanite's wet dream. If you're in a slightly less money-fied situation, may I suggest either the North or South Side. If you're willing to roll the dice, with respect to your kid's education, the West Side offers you the best real estate value in Bloomington. The-smell-of-freshly-burnt-rubber-from-tires-of-the-truck-driven-by-the-redneck-who's-currently-flipping-you-off, is a strong indicator that you've made it to the West Side. The campus area is predominated by lazy money douchebags who are fixin' to get their comeuppance if they show me the slightest amount of disrespect. Drinking is like a religion with these people.

Lowlife scums. Like to wear cheap or over expensive crap, such as "nike", "kappa", "adidas", "reebok" "umbro" and many more...
Start fights with grungers/moshas/punks and goths for absoloutly NO reason.
Manage to cram FUCK in every other sentance. think its funny to act dumb which comes naturally to them.
Townie girls come in to types.
1. Slut like, big mouthed wear hardly any clothes. Bleached hair, to much make up and are turnin yellow from all the fags and not enough sun light.
2. The ones that act like men and wear tracsuit bottoms, have their eyebrow pierced and have nothing better to do except for stealing and hanging around in no particular place of value. (eg. bus stops)
The male of the species are not very varied.
they all skank like they have a bad limb, wear clothes that are really baggy in the middle but really tight at seams and joints. They talk like Ali G, and wear alot of "bling" which we accosiate as cheap painted gold plastic, bought from the local market. they think it's hilarious when something goes wrong, crave attention and think they are "bad boys" or "wellard". Often try to be black (stupid wannabe niggers) and wear thinks from america (basketball vests which are waaaaaaay to big) and have writing containing places in america but being townies they have no idea where they are.
They wear their caps way to high and then where their hoods over the top.
JAHAN IS THE STUPIDEST KNOB EVER
Grungers and other non-townies are all unsafe a...

Mount Vernon is a town split in half. A bridge divides this 4 square mile town between a ghetto and a pretty nice surburban neighborhood. Unlike some of the definitions of my counterparts, the dividing line is not black/white, it is between urban/surburban. My whole family is "white" and I grew up on the ghetto side. So, by default, there must be more than one or two white people. Sorry guys your definition is inaccurate.
Mount Vernon also has an underfunded public school system, which suited me just fine. Life is what you make out of it. You can grow up poor on the ghetto side of mount vernon go through an underfunded school system and still make something of yourself.
