*Bee*'s definitions
A neighborhood in (sort of south-west) Brooklyn, New York. Inhabited by mostly Italian, Jewish, and Chinese residents, and more from Europe, The Mediterranean, and more. It is true that it's not that welcoming to dark skinned people (Shh. It IS true, unless you're a tanned Italian ect.). Bensonhurst is located between Dyker Heights, Midwood, and Gravesend (that general area).
a) The people in Bensonhurst can give you cold stares until you feel nothing but hate inside.
b) Bensonhurst would be a nice place to settle down, if you fit in.

Get the bensonhurst mug.Talented and lovely musician. Best known as the guitarist/singer of rock trio Babes In Toyland who had a little fame in the 90's. Kat has a completely unique voice, from a sweet tone to a powerful howl. She is also a kick ass guitarist, she burns grrls like Avril Lavigne and Courtney Love, who try to play agressively. Basicly invented the babydoll or kinderwhore look, which was later ripped off by Courtney Love.
Kat Bjelland be yellin' all the time.

Get the kat bjelland mug.A nation of people who are originally native to what land is now America. But this also includes places like Mexico, Cuba, Venezuela, and so on.
The southern Natives were nearly and mostly destroyed after the Spanish explorers came over on boats, bringing with them deadly diseases (smallpox, scurvy ect.)
The Natives in the -what is now the United States and Canada- practically suffered the same tragedies.
There are many different tribes, each tribe has their own language, traditions, beliefs, and inhabit a certain area. Unfortunately, a lot of these things are lost. But still, some has still continued on to this day.
With heavy stereotyping and lack of education, people often misunderstand Natives. For example: Reservations aren't accompanied by brightly lit casinos. Dancing around a drum (usually at a pow-wow) is a spiritual experience, it's not silly. There are urban Natives. Virtually no Native has a "flat ass". People sacrifice so much and work hard for their families, but the idiots are responsible for the stereotypes, make this literally impossible to believe.

The Cherokee is just one Native American tribe. Arguably the most spread and most famous. A Cherokee is not a car!

Get the chick band mug.An "Acronym" for "Brooklyn". Widely used by people who feel need to prove they're from there. Or just lazy people, and some stupid people. It is sometimes used on MSN Messenger and various cell phones (Virgin Mobile, Fido ect.), txting back and forth. Maybe even spraypainted on buildings, and scribbled in bathroom stalls.
Some of us find "Bklyn" an absolutely horrendous and disgusting abbreviation for "Brooklyn". Annoys me more than "the big apple" does.
