Richest state in the nation, but also one where most of the wealth is concentrated. Connecticut is known to most as simply a few wealthy towns in Fairfield County. Most of the state is less rich and unknown to the rest of the U.S, but the people in Fairfield County are so rich that the statistics are skewed. CT's cities are among the poorest in the country. The Capital, Hartford, is the 2nd poorest city with a population over 100,000 in the country and has been on the nation's 25 most dangerous cities list for a decade. New Haven and Bridgeport have also had historically rampant crime, and New Haven was the crack capital of the country in the early 1990s. Poverty and crime are primarily concentrated in these cities and some of their inner ring suburbs (e.g. West Haven; East Hartford; New Britain), but their overall metropolitan areas are among the richest in the nation. Connecticut actually has very little rural land, as the 4th most densely populated state in the U.S., but is rather, undergoing intensive urban sprawl in all its metropolitan areas, especially the Stamford area, where New York City residents are moving.

Get the Connecticut mug.Related Words
The act of finding a consenting homeless person who is willing to engage in sexual congress in the nearest dumpster. Once the homeless individual is willing you use bungee cords and two shopping carts to make a cage to trap them in. You will then proceed to defecate, urinate and ejaculate on them while calling them ethnic slurs native to the Boston region (ie butter nubs, slabbering gutter goat, and Morgan Freeman.) When you finish he will ask for a dollar but you will tell that hobo to get a job, because he is indeed a lazy bum now covered in cum.
"After I put that hobo in the shopping cart I gave him a Connecticut ShoppingCart. I shit on his face and called him Morgan Freeman. Can you believe he wanted money after that?! Just like that lazy freeloader to take a free load and want a handout."

Get the Ethiopian Connection mug.Not unlike the giddy, starry-eyed state of a couple who have newly fallen in love, forging an indestructible bond known as a "love connection" (see Chuck Woolery's popular 1980s game show for examples), a glove connection is the unbreakable bond between me, myself, + I.
More to the point, it is the special bond between one's self + one's own genitalia; a bond that is strengthened by the act of self-love (masturbatory exercises).
