control freak 

An insecure person with serious issues, who thinks they have to control people all the time. If they are not in control, they panic and grow angry and aloof. They have the it's-my-way-or-the-highway philosophy. In love relationships a control freak often tries to control his woman out of insecurity and lack of trust.

My roomate is a control freak and somehow thinks he is my father. He asks me where I'm going, who I'm meeting with, what I'm doing, when I'll be back, what I'm looking at on the internet, tells me how to wash the dishes and how to load the dishwasher, and even questions my spending habits. His serious control issues are making me want to move out.

Milwaukee 

The largest city in Wisconsin (580,000), situated on Lake Michigan, 90-miles north of its big brother of Chicago, Illinois. Although the city proper population has fallen, the metro area is actually more hip than places like St. Louis, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and Detroit, and is easily a smaller version of Chicago. It has a decent nightlife with its bars and stuff. The Milwaukee area is home to much beer production and Harley Davidsons, the most obnoxiuos monstrocity God created. Milwaukee--in many respects--is a very decent metro area of 1.6 million to live in, due to its proximity to Chicago and cheaper cost of living. It's even a good alternative to living in Chicago.

Milwaukee was the setting for Laverne and Shirley and Happy Days.

Milwaukee may not have the urban sophistication of New York, Boston, Phil, San Fran, Seattle and L.A., but it is decent and owes its decency to its proximity to Chicago. Milwaukee owes Chicago a whole lot of gratitude.

customer service 

Something that isnt what it used to be. Customer service workers get paid to lower themselves and kiss ass to ungrateful, stupid pricks known as the "public." Customer service workers only have their positions while obtaining a college degree, so they can get out of customer service hell and kiss ungratefull customers goodby for a real job that offers a future and more financial security.

Customer service workers get a bad rap from the ignorant public. They like their position no more than the patrons who look down on them. I used to be in customer service (the food/restaurant industry), and would spit in the food of idiots who would piss me off and look down on me for providing a service for their pathetic, ungrateful ass. When working in customer service, you immediately see how stupid people have become today.

Gary 

A city that much of Indiana wishes belonged to Illinois and Chicago. A terrible city and industrial wasteland in northwest Indiana, next to Chicago, and one of the worst cities in the country to live. It is like 90% black and has a terrible crime problem. About 100,000 dirt-poor blacks live in this decaying--actually dying--Rust Belt city on the southern shore of Lake Michigan. Gary was once the largest center of steel manufacturing in the country, until the 1960s, when the jobs were lost to overseas competition. The jobs and many people are gone and NEVER to return. Thank God that Gary does NOT represent the rest of Indiana. I'm sure that much of Indiana wishes Gary would belong to Illinois--let Chicago have it.

Gary is a bad city, but the hometown to the Jacksons: Michael, Latoya and Janet.

Newark 

The largest city in New Jersey (280,000). A city of grime and grit, just 10 miles outside New York City in northern New Jersey. It is the headquarters to a number of banks, insurance companies and pharmaceutical corporations.

Newark, despite having numerous corporate headquarters to large companies, has much potyential but is a city of grime and grit instead.

Constitution 

Something liberals know nothing about but think they do. A historical document drafted in 1787 by the Continental Congress in Philadelphia, and the foundation of American law that liberals consider irrelevant today because it does not coincide with their misguided views. The liberals only use the Constitution to twist its wording and further their agenda i.e. using SEPERATION OF CHURCH AND STATE to ban anything considered religious from public, and turning FREEDOM OF RELIGION into Freedom from Religion.

The U.S. Constitution is NOT law (despite what liberals tell you), but merely the foundation of our laws. The U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence are the greatest documents the human race has seen.

small town 

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.

A small town is the total antithesis of a big city, and is not necessarily a bad thing.
