A city in Northern England full of nosy parkers who can't seem to mind their own business. Examples include getting accosted by an angry security guard for flying a drone over the iconic castle for recreational photography. Another example is walking into a public building and standing next to a staff only door. The third example is walking into the local supermarket, clearly grown adult and picking up a tiny energy drink can from the shelf and getting asked for ID to prove you are aged 16 or older before you get chance to blink. Seriously, it's very typical of Lancaster.
Me: *Flies drone of Lancaster Castle*
Security Guard: OY! BRING THAT DOWN NOW OR IT'LL BE SHOT DOWN, THAT'S ILLEGAL IT'S CROWN PROPERTY!

Get the Lancaster mug.a guy that is popular but has an ever changing personality. whenever he hangs out with a new group of people he will subconsciously alter his personality those of the people around him. overtime, its rare to see him without a group of people, and if you do, he just looks like hes a lost wandering cat. typically short and dumb. however, in the right environment he could excel without being aware of what's going on.
Person 1: Why does Lancaster look so depressed?
Person 2: Yeahhh, hes always like that when hes not surrounded by a bunch of people

Get the Lancaster mug.A High School in Lancaster City that, despite Christian values, is actually 75% queer, 15% atheist, 10% thot, which consists of a girls basketball cult. This school, although seems fun, is actually full of JUUL fiends and a 95% illiteracy rate.

Get the Lancaster Catholic mug.A "top 10" university in the U.K. It's in the middle of nowhere, has really depressing weather, and student life involves getting stupidly drunk in grim bars in town, because there's honestly not much else to do in your free time. There's quite a few societies, but with the exception of international clubs, they mostly consist of weirdos who dress up as Harry Potter and do medieval reenactments. Classes and lectures are alright, but the campus is so big it that it can take up to half an hour to walk to class from your dorm. Highlight of the experience is making friends for life by bonding over the horrible weather and the terrible food they serve in northern England.
Owen:"Which University you going to mate?"

Get the Lancaster University mug.British WW2 heavy bomber designed by Roy Chadwick and built by Avro in the UK, as well as under license in Canada (Mk X). It evolved out of Chadwicks earlier design, the Avro Manchester, which was universally hated by all who were condemned to fly it, due to poor engine design. When Chadwick was able to get hold of 4 precious Rolls-Royce Merlin V-12 engines, he put them on the Manchester, lengthened the wings, and a legend was born.
The Lancaster was the mainstay of RAF Bomber Command from 1942 onwards, and was used for a variety of specialist tasks such as attacking the Ruhr Dams and sinking the Tirpitz. Its main role however, was in the great Area Raids which laid waste to many German cities by night whilst the Americans attacked by day.
It was the most effective bomb hauler in the Allies European Arsenal (the Boeing B-29 Superfortress could carry a larger bomb load, but was only employed in the Pacific against Japan towards the end of the War), and could carry almost twice the load of its US counterparts in Europe, these being the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress and the Consolidated B-24 Liberator bombers.
Approximately 7000 Lancasters were built, of which roughly 4000 were lost on operational service, i.e. shot down by enemy night-fighters, anti-aircraft fire, or crashes.
Although controversy still rages over the employment of the Lancaster during the Strategic Air Offensive against Germany (Lancasters were the only bombers used by the RAF for the Dresden Raid of 13/14 Feb 1945 for example), there is little dispute that it was one of the greatest aircraft designs of the Second World War.
