Prairie
You hear someone say, “The neighbor kids love to play in the prairie,” and now you’re scratching your head and wondering where to find the Chicago prairie. Forget the images of Laurie Ingalls Wilder, log cabins and the tall prairie grass. When a Chicagoan refers to the prairie, he means a vacant lot in the neighborhood. The lot particularly fills the prairie title if it’s full of weeds, so if you squint and use your imagination, maybe you can see “prairie grass” in Chicago. Just don’t expect a Little House on the Prairie moment when you find one.

Midwestern people who use methamphetamines, women who like to seep around, obese people, country folks. Blanket insult for Midwesterners. Midwestern equivalent of redneck. Used in the show "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia."
Adrian, that girl Megan is prairie trash, don't sleep with her.
Stop wearing camouflage jackets around in the city, that's such a prairie trash thing to do.

Justice that is rendered outside of the criminal justice system by private citizens located in the Prairie provinces of Canada.
Did you hear about the farmer who shot that boy trying to steal from his farm? A jury of his peers acquitted him of murder. Now that is some old fashioned Prairie justice!
