movie poverty

When a character in a film/tv show has little to no income, yet lives in a place that would cost them thousands of dollars in real life. This also applies to material possesions i.e. a character driving a brand new car whilst working as a bouncer at a local bar. The phrase was originally coined by TJ Kirk a.k.a. The Amazing Atheist.

Person 1: How does Patrick Swayze's character in Road House afford a Mercedes solely by working as a doorman?
Person 2: He suffers from movie poverty bro.

Santa pooed

To clime someone’s roof naked, particularly while the fire is inflamed, for the purposes of pooping down the chimney to set fire to ones excrements, while shouting “ho-ho-ho”. The challenge originated from the day someone was dared to complete such a challenge to do so without singing the hairs of ones ass.

Charlie went on dude bros roof and Santa pooed that old mans flaming fire so hard!

Poverty Belt

Poverty Belt is a growing term being used by people who live in the northeastern US to describe Central New York. Central New York is a geographical region of upstate New York which lies between the Catskill mountains and the Adirondacks. It is comprised of the cities Albany, Utica, Syracuse, Binghamton, Buffalo and Rochester (which is often referred to as Crotch-Chester). Common characteristics of this region which account for the sobriquet include scarcity of jobs, high unemployment, a shrinking population and a crumbling infrastructure. The "belt" part of the term comes from the way the aforementioned cities are horizontally situated close to the New York state thruway which runs from East to West through the middle part of the state.

-Where do you come from?

-Central New York.

-Syracuse a tough place to make a living.
-Why's that.
-It's situated in the Poverty Belt.
