Traditionally, the largest concentration of blacks in Los Angeles, California and the city‘s most economically-depressed area. It has transitioned into a center for Latinos today and are now the area’s largest minority. South Central has been notorious in the media as a haven for violent crime, gangs, drugs and riots (the most recent in 1992 was the worst). Watts is its most well-known neighborhood. South Central Los Angeles is now referred to as “South Los Angeles” and is a loose term that includes all of south Los Angeles, south of The Santa Monica Freeway and downtown and includes independent cities within the region: Compton, Inglewood, Downey and Bellflower. It was depicted in the movie “Boyz n the Hood.
South Central is about the worst place for anybody in any city to live. Ghetto and gangsta at its finest.

Get the south central mug.“The west’s most western town.” A very nice community in Arizona and a suburb of Phoenix. Population of 230,000. Contrary to popular belief, Scottsdale is NOT rich. Beverly Hills, Malibu, the Hamptons on Long Island and a penthouse on Park Avenue in New York are rich, but NOT Scottsdale. Yes, it is a very nice, growing community, but there are plenty of communities in this country that have much more wealth per-capita than Scottsdale could ever dream about, which makes it only upper middle-class. The only people who think Scottsdale is rich are either Scottsdale residents themselves who don’t know any better and haven’t been anywhere else, or people from other parts of the country who only follow the hype. Most of Scottsdale’s “rich” live in “North Scottsdale,” (still part of the city) and are so high and mighty that they look down on someone from even “South Scottsdale,” which is still very nice in and of itself.
Scottsdaleites are known around the Phoenix area as being haughty, materialistic, fake and shallow. The men judge their worth based on the size of their penis, the size of their SUV, the size of their bank account, the size of their home and the size of their woman’s boobs. The women do not fair any better. They are often stuck-up tramps who think money, sex, materialism and partying are the only things that count in this life. Most women from Scottsdale would NEVER considering dating/marrying a man who is only your average Joe and didn’t have what they did. And a Scottsdale resident would easily look down on someone who shopped at Walmart (although I'm anit-Walmart myself).

Scottsdale people can take their money and their fancy cars and stick them where the sun doesn't shine. Don't bring your arrogance and money around these parts of town 'cuz people will jack you for it.

Get the Scottsdale mug.A state with extreme scerenity, significant sunshine (over 300 days of sunshine a year in Denver) and the best opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. The Rocky Mountains make it the state with the highest average elevation. Denver, its capital and largest city (population 570,000), is called the “Mile High City” because it’s capitol is exactly one mile in elevation. Denver is consistently ranked among the top of America’s “fittest” , “thinnest” , and “most educated” cities. About half of the state’s 5 million residents live in the Greater Denver Metro area. Other important population centers include Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Fort Collins—all of which are located on the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains. Colorado has extreme variations in climate. People in Denver can get a tan and snow ski in the same day. The enormous flat plains of eastern Colorado get huge thunderstorms in the spring and summer that make for a great lightening show and tornadoes. Colorado is where the song, America the Beautiful was written. “For purple mountains majesty above the fruited plain” describes Colorado to a tee. Beef cattle and wheat are its two largest agricultural products.
I wouldn't mind living in Colorado. It's progressive, has a reasonable cost of living and generally friendly people.

Get the Colorado mug.It amazes me of all the silly descriptions of a small town by ignorant people on here. No, I dont live in one, but I did for a while. They are not all the same. Yes, some are poor, but some are also very affluent (Lake Zurich, Illinois for example).
A small town is the anithesis of a big city, which is not necessarily a bad thing. A small town is a community where people are a generally friendly, laid back folk, and where everybody knows almost everybody there. If you stop and ask for directions, the person giving you the directions will probably turn it into a conversation. The community is probably a speed trap, but the police who give you a speeding ticket are often known and called by their first name. You are usually not afraid to unlock your doors (although I wouldn't do it). Most businesses in town are family-owned ma-and-pa stores threatened by the Walmart nearby, which is probably the community's largest employer. The Mayor probably has another job on the side. You also know your'e in a small town because the people raise a stink over a new business coming in, fearing that it will create "traffic congestion." Some small towns can be suburbs or exurbs of a large meropolitan area.

Get the small town mug.One of the funniest and most clever 1990s sitcoms airing on ABC. The show centered around the stand up acts of comedian, Tim Allen. His character, Tim Taylor hosts a Detroit cable tool show called Tool Time. He is very masculine and interested in all aspects of the male mind: he is always building a hotrod in the garage, is sexist, HATES the opera, grunts, loves tools, loves sports and loves building things. He is however blessed with ineptitude. His ineptitude includes anything from glueing his head to a table to falling through a roof or a portapotty to dropping a two-ton beam on his wife's car. Home Improvement had a cleverly-written script and writers. It won a number of Emmys.
Home Improvment was a great show. Gags from the show:
1. the neighbor, Wilson's face NEVER being seen
2. everybody screws up Wilson's advice.
3. Tim's wife Jill cant cook.
4. Tim is always building a hotrod in the garage.
5. Tim's cohost, Al has an obsession with flannel.
6. Tim is always making fun of Al, his mother-in-law and basically anything he doesnt understand
7. Wilson's amazing knowledge of culture and history.

Get the American Airlines mug.An insecure "pretty boy" who is trying his dambdest to prove his masculinity even though he loves shopping, is trendy, ALWAYS concerned with his appearance, especially his hair and knows more about women than most gay guys. Some may believe a metrosexual is a homsosexual passing himself off as straight or is on the verge of homosexuality.
A metrosexual, in my opinion, lacks masculinity and needs a hormone shot. He may claim he is straight for the time being but, in reality, is probably on the verge of coming out of the closet.
