Mantana

Another nickname for Montana since the average male to female ratio is anywhere from 5:1 to 30:1 depending on which "neck of the woods" you live in. Also, when people think of Montana they usually think of an iconic image of a rough-hewn cowboy on a horse riding through the mountains like a Marlboro man. It's considered man country because you have to be reasonably tough to live in Montana through the winter months.
"Come to Mantana..,where you don't lose your girlfriend, you just lose your turn!"

"No, I wasn't referencing the movie, Brokeback Mountain. Most Mantana men are NOT gay."

grocery-getter

A boring looking mini-van, station wagon or SUV used mostly to acquire groceries for the household to transport kids around town. Usually a grocery-getter vehicle is driven, unfortunatley, by a pill-popping soccer mom and/or bored housewife in a loveless marriage. Grocery-getter vehicles are generally not very sexy looking and are selected for their practical utility like transporting spoiled kids, various equipment and groceries of course.
"Her husband bought her a real grocery-getter didn't he?"

"What is up with Anne-Marie? She was zipping around in her grocery-getter all jacked up on something this morning... nearly ran me over, dammit!"

Woman: Those are alright I guess. Ooh, I like that silver Toyota Sienna! Can I test drive it?

Guy: Sure...a more fancy grocery-getter if you will.

Woman: Uh, yeah (rolls eyes and sighs). You know I'm not a mom and I'm not married Mr. um...

Guy: Just call me Larry.

Woman: Right. On this test drive try not to talk. You already put your foot in your mouth as it is.
