Gone At North

A term used in baseball to describe a weak ass pop-up that would be a homerun at an undersized baseball field.

Link: "I'm tired of Cooper flying out every at-bat. I think I'm going to bench his ass."

Lawson: "Don't beat him up too bad. That one would've been Gone At North."

Fist of the North Star

Fist of the North Star (北斗の拳 Hokuto no Ken?) is a Japanese manga series written by Buronson and drawn by Tetsuo Hara that was serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1983 to 1988, spanning 245 chapters, which were initially collected in a 27-volume tankōbon edition by Shueisha. Set in a post-apocalyptic world that has been destroyed by a nuclear war, the story centers around a warrior named Kenshiro, the successor of a deadly martial art style known as Hokuto Shinken, which gives him the ability to kill most adversaries from within through the use of the human body's secret vital points, often resulting in an exceptionally violent and gory death. Kenshiro dedicates his life to fighting against the various ravagers who threaten the lives of the weak and innocent, as well as rival martial artists, including his own "brothers" from the same clan.

The manga was adapted into two anime TV series produced by Toei Animation which aired on Fuji TV affiliates from 1984 through 1988, comprising a combined total of 152 episodes. Several films, OVAs, and video games had been produced as well, including a series of spin-offs centering around other characters from the original story.

Hokuto Shinken (officially translated as the "God Fist of the North Star", among other names) is the primary fighting style in the series. A martial art which is 18 centuries old, Hokuto Shinken uses the body's 708 vital points to destroy or heal from within. The art can only be passed down from one master to a single student, and thus the dispute between Kenshiro and his adoptive brothers becomes the central plot during the first half of the manga's run.

Georgia Tech of the north

Phrase used to refer to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or MIT. It is one of the country's top engineering and research universities, behind Georgia Tech. The prestige and technological emphasis of MIT leads many in its body to refer to it as the "Georgia Tech or the North", a reference to the Georgia Institute of Technology, another world recognized university in the southern United States.

MIT is consistently ranked in U.S. News & World Report's top ten public universities in the United States.

I got accepted into the Aerospace Engineering program at MIT, the Georgia Tech of the north.

Arden, North Carolina

The city of Asheville's bitch to the south.
Home to TC Roberson High School, a main rival to Asheville High. TC Roberson has won more state championships than Asheville and their other rival, Reynolds High School, combined.

Hey, let's go down to Arden, North Carolina to mess some people up!

niles north

A rich school who spends their money on everything except the god damn bathrooms. Bought and demolished houses to build a $5 million pool, yet can't extend the stalls large enough so someone can actually fit inside. One of the most diverse schools in Illinois, yet you only see ghetto football players and annoying white cheerleaders.

Peter: did you see that group of ghetto football players and white cheerleaders?
Nathanael : Yeah they must go to Niles North
