martha's vineyard

I live on Martha's Vineyard year round and I have to deal with all the tourists (by the way, some of whom are not all that bad) and then I get to live there through the desserted winters...and it is still my favorite place on earth. The natives are highly misunderstood. None of us are rich, we are scraping to get by because the Island is so expensive. We make our money through the tourism and we grin and bare it all for 4 months a year. The upisland beaches are gorgeous, and upisland in general is the place to be...avoid the crowds at all costs. But honestly, if you are looking for a place to hate on, look somewhere else. This is island is gorgeous and welcoming.
And yes, Nantucket has nothing on Martha's Vineyard.

Martha's Vineyard

A beautiful island, which has retained its charm and character throughout the growth of its fame. The summer visitors who stay in "MV" may be in fact equally as wealthy as those staying in the flashy Hamptons, but despite popular belief the Vineyard does not have a hoity-toity feel, and residents and visitors alike are friendly and do not appear snobby. Another major difference between the Vineyard and some other wealthy beach towns is the type of people -- Martha's Vineyard is a summer getaway for old money, as opposed to the nouveau riche of The Hamptons. You'll also find that those who spend summers in MV tend to be democrats. After celebs such as Clinton and the Kenedys began vacationing on the Vineyard, the news of this charming island spread and yes, more and more tourists have arrived. However, they have managed to keep almost every chain hotel or restaurant off of the island, there are virtually zero traffic lights, and large advertising and signage is limited. The charm of Martha's Vineyard definitely remains.
I'm heading up to charming Martha's Vineyard for the summer.

Martha Zolanski 

Martha is another one of Nicki Minaj's various alter egos. She's Roman Zolanski's British mother. She can be heard at the very end of the song 'Roman's Revenge' and was also seen for the very first time playing Nicki's fairy god mother in 'Moment 4 Life.'
Person 1: I love Nicki's voice when she becomes Roman Zolanski!

Person 2: Yeah me too! Not so sure about his strange British mother Martha Zolanski though.

Martha Howe-Douglas 

The woman in the group known as six idiots and 'them there'. She has played many roles in the film they made (Bill) and is the protagonist (and also the antagonist for a bit. Just watch it) in Yonderland. She also plays one of the ghosts in BBC ghosts and was in horrible histories.

She is rada trained (apparently) and is also an incredibly talented actress (apparently) and hot (apparently (not that I'd know anything about that hah...)).
Person 1: who played Cleopatra in horrible histories?
Person 2: Martha Howe-Douglas
Person 1: and who played the presenter, Sam in horrible histories?
Person 2: also Martha Howe-Douglas
Person 1: I refuse to believe that

Martha Stewart prison 

It's where rich people/celebrities go when they're convicted of a white-collar crime. Unlike regular prison, the conditions there are quite comfortable, and are comparable to being under house arrest at a country club. Sentences tend to be short as celebrities tend to not have to face the full wrath of the law like us commoners do, so they typically only get 1-2 years, or 4 if they did something truly heinous.
Commoner 1: "I can't believe (insert celebrity name here) only got 2 years in that Martha Stewart prison. They flattened a group of kids boarding a bus because they were hammered behind the wheel!"

Commoner 2: "Well I still can't believe (insert other celebrity name) only got community service. HE DEFECATED THROUGH A SUNROOF."
