cape cod

small peninsula off massachusetts that sucks money out of tourists and retired millionaires to survive, since the traditional fishing industry is slowly dying - native cod all but wiped out. beautiful beaches protected by the government since the 1950's, but that meant the locals had to give up their beach camps. basically we hate tourists but without them we'd be totally impoverished. there is nothing for kids to do so most of them destroy their brains with drugs & alcohol. everyone says they're going to leave but never manage it and stay working as a landscaper/fisherman/carpenter/waitress/cashier etc. the winters are horrible and in the summer tourists are everywhere. real estate is too expensive for anyone to have a nice house. all the land not protected by federal government is being gobbled up by rich people from far away who want to live "out in the boonies". cape cod has conservative strongholds like chatham in the south ("a quaint drinking town with a fishing problem") and liberal strongholds like provincetown, mecca for artists and homosexuals, in the north. primarily white, but recently there's been an influx of brazilians. the predominant subculture is punk, since we're all so angry at our lives but can't do anything about it. people who leave tend to stay gone. local slang includes "wicked" meaning extremely, "pisser" meaning awesome, and "wash-ashore" for someone whose family hasn't lived on cape cod for more than, say, 50 years or so...

tourist: cape cod is so beautiful and peaceful!
local: *gags*

cane toad

Anything that is taken out of its natural environment, placed in another suitable one, and gets on the fast track to total world domination.

Originates from the sugar cane toad, a native Hawaiian toad that was introduced to Australia to help control beetle population and has never looked back.

Guy 1: Did you see that new guy from Japan? He doesn't even speak English, but in a week he's already been promoted to head of our department and I hear he's knocked up the VP.

Guy 2: What a total cane toad.

CAPE COD

Cape Cod has bumper to bumper traffic in the summer, and empty roads in the winter. Tourists show up for the good weather and run and hide before the snow comes.

Cape Cod was covered in snow and no one was there to care.

Caine

A really great guy in general! Not just a slang word for Cocaine. He is a guy with good intentions. Very Smart and funny. The kind of person you can talk about anything with. Caine's have awesome personalities. Though they can be a little overly sensitive at times. Everyone loves Caine. Caine's are also very attractive. Not only for their looks, but for their personalities as well. Caines are HILARIOUS. They really know how to have a good time and are usually very friendly. In relationships, Caine's are usually very faithful, but tend to flirt a lot with other people. Caine's usually have a lot of people crushing on them.

Person 1: OMG! look there's caine!

Person 2: oh, i know! He's so hot and funny..

Canned Laughter

The worst invention since the A-Bomb.

Used by almost all American comedies which if you listen closely enough you can hear the winding of the laughter going round and round.

If you hear canned laughter dont expect to laugh.

Expect to be forced to laugh.

Then again the British are just as bad.
