Pickering 

Pickering is a city 30 minutes East of Toronto. Its home to an Nuclear Power Plant and a strip club called The Palace. The Palace is a home away from home for the band Down With Webster as they are regulars at the gentlemen's club. They reportedly spent 90% of their record advance money on a platnium membership, which gives them a year-round reservation for the best seats on perv row.
Dude A: "Why are you going to Pickering?"
Dude B: "The Palace, bro."
Dude A: "Say Hi to Down With Webster for me while you're there."

Pickering 

A ghetto wannabe town. Almost all the black people in the south half don't know how to act, think they are so fucking hood and tough, while living in rich areas like maple ridge or major oaks. Pickering isn't ghetto, it has one of the lowest crime rates in all of durham region. Ajax is more ghetto than Pickering. Any gangs you will hear of in Pickering, are fake. One of the high schools Pine Ridge Secondary School, is nicknamed crimeridge just because a guy got shot on the ball court once. This occoured over 15 years ago. Sure there is drugs, but every school has drugs. Every town has drugs, and it's not even known a lot. Kids will have the mentality that they're living in the ghetto when they have never witnessed a shooting. they think Pickering is hood when they have never stepped foot into Thorncliffe Park, Regent jungle, Flemingdon, or Scarborough. Overall, Pickering is a bullshit waste town, pretty much the Drake of Cities. (Drake is known for being a fraud, caliming his ghetto credability while having grown up in Forest hill, the richest area in toronto, thus meaning a ghetto fake or wannabe. This is how Pickering is the Drake of cities.)
PS most of the black kids are also mainly from the carribean and are racist to any other race or peoples, including africans.

Pickering Taxi 

Slang for a Hearse. The term was coined in reference to Pickering in North Yorkshire.

Due to the town's aging population the death rate appears abnormally high and as such students will frequently see "pickering taxis" driving around the streets on their lunch break.
Pickering is so full of old people every other vehicle is a pickering taxi.
