Spokane

You know that a city is truly awful when, even on the main street, buildings are boarded up and the parking lots boasting the most cars are Goodwill, Pawn One, the army surplus and Spokane Discount. That’s right; Spokane Discount. This town is trash. Another good indicator of trashdom is when the prize for being the twentieth caller to the local Top 40 station is a free tattoo at Silver Safari. And what does the dumb cow who wins want to get emblazoned on her skin? “Cherries!” she cries. “On the back of my neck!” I guess that will look really good when you’re lining up at Social Security with your two grade-schoolers, eight months preggers, Ford Pinto rotting outside with a “This is America! Speak English!” bumper sticker stuck on its ass. Don’t for a second imagine that you could leave your snotty offspring in the car, however, because Spokane has enough registered sex-offenders per capita to keep the Spokesman Review’s opinion page occupied until the next time a homophobic mayor solicits local high school boys online. I’m sorry, did I get a little off track? The only track I’m really interested in is I-90 West. Let me reiterate: I hate Spokane.
People who use the work "Spokompton" to describe this awful hell-hole are usually not trying to be clever or bad-ass. They're most likely just trying to explain how ghetto Spokane is. "Spokrapton" is my personal favorite and I like to think I made it up, but I imagine others have come up with this monkier before.

Spokanicharlestonian

(also maybe referred to as "charlestokanite", however, this falls into the category of slang)

A reference to the widespread bonds of friendship, and culture formed between inhabitants of Charleston South Carolina, and Spokane Washington This does not simply refer to a couple friendships formed, but a widespread phenomena which arises from the fact that in the United States Air Force an extremely common assignment combo is Charleston AFB, then Fairchild (Spokane) AFB, and back to Charleston AFB. Specifically, this culture exists because of the moving back and forth across the country of Air Force personnel and their families, and the resulting interaction with both Charlestonians and Spokanites. It is this interaction that has formed a distinct bridge between the liberal, coffee-loving, granola eating personality of the northwest, and the laid back, redneck, sweet tea slurping which defines the south.

Unique features of the Spokanicharlestonian culture include:

-a running discourse drawing paralells between muddin', and snowboarding
-a general obsession with the other city
-a thriving trade via UPS of sc goodies such as boiled peanuts or grits, for wa goodies such as exceptional coffee.
-extreme dependence on the social site "facebook" for the maintenance of said culture
ajay: dude, i heard they might start building dutch brothers coffee places on king street in downtown charleston

Spokanistan

Another nickname for the city of Spokane in Washington State USA. This nickname began growing in popularity when some Spokane residents began to notice similarities between their surroundings and the pictures of dusty towns in Afghanistan being shown on TV news.
I'm in Seattle for another week, then it's back to Spokanistan until June

I was born here. And for all you other people with your definitions on how bad this place is.. go slob on a knob. cheese and rice. ha. Spokane has amazing weather. awesome festivities. Nice people. Dick's hamburgers. ZIPS. Great malls. The gondolas. Gnar river. Those cool vines that crawl up the walls along the freeway. silverwood is a hop skip and a jump away. River Front Park! I mean come on people! sure they have a meth problem and every other drug problem but what city doesnt have a few crackheads running around...or hundreds. The tiny hick towns in MT. and WY. and all the other states with low pop. but guess what i'm sure they're some tweakers even there. So grow a pair, and enjoy spokansas for what it really is!

Spokane

Spokane is a scenic and beautiful city in many ways,geographicaly speaking, yet it is a VERY VERY ridiculously exploitational and ultimately dysfunctional in its mentality/economy and also very dysfunctional within its societal behaviours in business and on many more personal levels. There are WAY WAY WAY too many people here, of all ages, who do almost nothing exciting or productive with their lives (which definately does NOT include ME). They seem to enjoy to continue to make their repeated punk ass weak ass attempts at screwing eachother in "supposedly" fair business...NOT. This town is NOT fair...Yet neither is Life...LOL... Trust ME, I work from my home, TRY IT here in Spokane and you too will know EXACTLY what I REALLY mean. The mentality of MANY people here is plain ignorant narrow-mindedness and stupidity to be further brutally honest. I dont hate people I just hate the way most of the people here think. IDIOTS... I feel like I am surrounded by genuine idiots most times here...lazy ass low lifes who very rarely respect the prices of a self employed artist who almost forever struggles to "Make It" working from his home, yet they seem to endlessly continue to bow down to the corporate giants and their $ET pricing, yet they take every chance they think they got to kick ME in the nuts over my ALREADY fair pricing...like it is a negotiation or something...NOT. The Cottage Industry needs and also EXPECTS its pricing to be respected, and yet to also continue to remain FAIR...Like I have always been, with these rude unappreciative cheap ass brow beating jerks. Spokane can kiss my ass.
meth, rape, freaks, crappy amateur hour grafitti everywhere
no decent paying jobs exploitation ignorance narrow mindedness massive conservatism Undeserved Rudness Spokane Sucks

Spokane

The northwest's answer to Savannah, GA, except way lamer. Really boring, not worth visiting or living in unless you've got a completely boring personality and completely lack individuality. Full of hicks who think they aren't hicks because they don't have a southern accent. 50% of the teenage/young adult population consists of white people who act like black people, and since there aren't any black people to put these white people in their place, they continue to act like complete fucktards until they decide to put on suits and work or fall into the path of cocaine and meth. A large margin of Spokane consists of pot smokers, both teens and adults, and these are the coolest people you will find here. The rest will call the cops on you for lighting a match in the middle of the street(I've been threatened before for doing this.) Gets occasional good concerts and is pretty safe despite its trashy appearance. Rich people are under the impression that its a nice city, but that's because they never leave their little bubble of ignorance known as the upper-middle class. A lot of people love to refer to the city as spokompton or spocompton to make up for the fact that they're all a bunch of idiots. Sometimes known as the meth capital of the world, which is simply because there's really nothing better to do around here. Infamous for rape, along with lots of prostitution on Sprague Avenue.

Aside from all of that, the weed is pretty good here, and its what keeps the non-oblivious population of spokane going.
1. Spokane wouldn't have a meth problem if it just had a fucking amusement park instead of some bullshit red wagon and a merry go round.

2. If you want to live in a happy little bubble of retardation and ignore bad people like negroes, hippies, and liberals, Spokane is the place for you!

3. I'm just a really bitter person.
