Get the get along like a house on fire mug.Across the Potomac from DC, is one of the wealthiest counties in the country as well as the smallest county in the world. Known mainly for its cemetary and the pentagon. It is where some of the best schools are located, and everything within it is reachable by car in under 15 minutes, by far one of the sweetest places to live. In the southern part of the county, many minorities can be found along with sports fields. In the northern part you can find a mix between the high-rises, brick colonials that are identical to those next-door and mansions. It is where you take DC being across the river for granted until you move away.

Get the Arlington, VA mug.Related Words
The act of dragging out a relationship with someone while having dishonest intentions. This can be applied to friendships or dating. The person stringing along the victim usually is getting something selfish or one-sided out of the situation such as sex, money or attention from others. This usually ends poorly for the person being strung along. The victim is sometimes aware of the situation but does not break the cycle due to them being a tool, insecure, spineless or gaining something less from the relationship such as not being completely alone even though they are being used. People performing this act are usually Chav's.
"You still dating Janet?" "Yeah I'm going to string her along until the sex runs out." or "I'm going to keep stringing along that married guy until he stops spending money on me or his wife finds out."

Get the tag along mug.Across the Potomac from DC,this is one of the wealthiest, smallest counties in the country,where some of the best schools are located, it makes Fairfax and the OC look like shit, and by far the sweetest place to live. In the southern part of the county, many minorities can be found along with sports fields. It also has it own transportation sysytem--the ART busses.Parts of it are getting to look more and more like NYC (rossylyn, ballston)and 95% of kid's parents work in DC, making a shitload of money. Arlington dominates the region in sports especially those PATRIOTS from Yorktown High School. Where small colonial houses are being replaced more and more by those ugly ass mansions which leave even smaller yards to utilize. It's also home to the PENTAGON-which in fact is NOT in DC. It's also where if you're a Republican, you are a tiny minority who has no say in anything and should hightail it to somewhere else in the state besides Northern Virginia.7 out of 10 eligible ppl voted for Kerry or Gore here and where everyone takes DC for granted, but still keeps the 'Skins faith going.
Person A: Oh,so yo'ure a redneck, confederate, illiterate, Republican from VA?
Arlingtonian: No, I'm from Arlington...
Arlingtonian: No, I'm from Arlington...

Get the Arlington, VA mug.The small county bordering DC to the east and Fairfax to the west. Commonly referred to as part of NOVA but really it's 400x more urban and developed then all the other SUBURBS that say they're a part of NOVA. The county has good public transport (but only in the relevant parts). Tourists flock to the small county to gawk at the Iwo Jima memorial, Arlington National Cemetary, the Pentagon and then stand in the middle of the metro platforms wearing neon shirts and looking at their phones because they can't figure out how to use a very simple system. In the north, white ass families live with kids who fuck around all the time because they have no access to transportation so they're stuck in their really confusing suburban neighborhoods. Also all the northern children think Clarendon is the shit because they're too scared to venture outside of Georgetown's borders and Nats stadium. The only kids who know where it's at live in walking distance of a metro stop (not including East Falls Church because that shit is nowhere near anything). The south of Arlington is disconnected but it has the mall, the Pentagon, the Pike and shit so respect to the people who live there. Every kids parents work in something fancy and there are a ton of military kids bc of Fort Myer. Even though it's better then the rest of NOVA (AND FAIRFAX where they claim is a good place to live but it's actually depressing and everyone is brainwashed into thinking they live near dc) it's still a suburb and sucks.
Me: Oh ya I live really close to DC
