The Tower Formerly Known as Sears

A moniker for the recently renamed Willis Tower in Chicago, formerly known as Sears Tower from 1973-2009.

Used by Chicagoans to avoid using the name Willis Tower.

Similar in structure to The Artist Formerly Known as Prince, which the music artist Prince crafted for legal reason to produce music outside the control of his corporate music label, until such time as he could regain his rightful name.
Passenger: Could you please take me to Willis Tower?
Cabbie: What you talkin bout, Willis?
Passenger: Oh, I'm sorry, I mean The Tower Formerly Known as Sears.
Cabbie: Sure.

scarsdale

Is a town. It deserves criticism for giving rise to people like whoever posted the 11th definition. Otherwise, it is a town full of a decent amount of normal people and a decent amount of snobs, but nevertheless stigmatized and stereotyped because of a small percentage of its population.
"I am from Scarsdale"

"Oh! You must be a ungrateful snob because you were born in particular region of the country where some other people are!"
