A Massachusetts Chain food store that doesn’t like advertising, and offers shitty quality products because you get what you pay for. Their chicken smells and tastes rancid, veggies don’t last long, and I’m surprised I didn’t get food poisoning from their seafood. The store is predominantly low income, blue collar, and suburban living humans. Nothing in that store is gourmet and it smells. Their meats are packaged instead of the butcher case. The vibe is shitty and I now understand why nobody in Boston food shops there. They have no city vibe whatsoever. It’s a sad and ghetto store.
One time my older brother asked if I wanted a ride to the grocery store. I said sure. Then he asked which Market basket I wanted to go to, and I looked at him crazy and said I’m too good to shop there. I go to Whole Foods, there meat is very gourmet and they care about you. He tried to talk me into shopping at a nasty store, and that everything there is all the same. I laughed and said No thanks. It’s my money. He still took me to wherever I wanted to go to.

Get the Market basket mug.A term describing the so-called "marketing strategy" of spammers who "advertise" or plug) their products and services by using people’s email addresses to send out bulk mail messages to all the contacts they've hijacked, pretending the email was written by the person who's identity they have hacked into.
This is done to suggest a person has tried and tested the product and to spread bogus word of mouth virally. This is entirely fraudulent and can potentially hurt a person’s reputation, but thankfully this method is used by individuals and groups who are just as stupid as the people they are trying to scam (i.e. catering to the lowest denominator). For this reason, the spam message itself is usually as easy to detect as the cheap knockoffs (or stolen goods) they are trying to unload on unsuspecting victims.

Get the off the meat market mug.It's when a guy takes a full beer (preferably Guinness) and empties it in a womans vagina during intercourse. The man then proceeds to drink the alcohol from the opening as it flows out in similarity to a waterfall.
An Irishman is having sex with a lady, and decides to pour his beer right down her vagina in order for him to go drink, and lick it out while pleasuring his companion. This is then called an Irish Waterfall (Irish fish market, Luck of the Irish, Drunken Irishman).
