an island off the coast of Georgia (USA, not the former Soviet republic)
Simply put, it is the most beautiful place on earth.
And no, I don't live there (but wish I did). Only a few people live there, most of it is national seashore. The rest of the dry land is forest of huge old oaks with animals running around. And wild horses running wild on the beach.
Very few people live there. It's mostly federal land and they allow only 300 peeps in at a time.

Get the Cumberland Island mug.An accent found in the Northeast part of the country. Often put in the category of the Boston accent. IT'S NOT!!!
Depending on where your from in Rhode Island, the accent differs. If your from Johnston, Cranston, north providence, Scituate you will have an almost New York accent due to the high amount of Italians and strong mafia ties.
EX: tree=three, true=through, yous=you all, stahp=stop, yeeaaa=yes, uge=huge
If your from any other part, you will either have a Boston like accent or a neutral accent. Rhode Islanders are known for having the highest percentage of Italians in the country.
They are also known for having one of the most powerful former mafia bosses in history, Raymond L.S. Patriarca.

Get the Ban Islam movement mug.Widely considered one of the hottest things on the planet.
Often used to describe the "hotness" of other things through comparison, almost always in a attempt to add realisation to a previous exaggeration.

Dude, did you see that chick?! That was one of the hottest pieces of ass I ever seen, well- I mean... Not Scarlett Johansson in "The Island" hot, but damn!

Get the Scarlett Johansson in "The Island" mug.Amazing Island is a video game, circa 2004, developed by Hitmaker/Ancient, and was published by Sega. The entire basis behind this game is that the tribe of Maboo, the main NPCs in the game, are dying out, and need to be saved and restored from the Evilings, who were the ones that origionally devestated the Maboo population.
The game play seems sort of similar to that of Mario Party, in the sense that your goal is to beat out Evilings at mini games in order to free the Maboo, however another intersting twist of this game is the deep character customization. While the main character is an 11 year old boy/girl (option bestowed upon the player) you use a monster that is either assigned to you, created for you, or created by you, through which to play the mini-games. This character customization style seems similar to that of Magic Pengel, circa 2003, published by Agetec. The style is as follows:
The player unlocks frames for his/her monsters, these frames include places for legs, heads, bodies, and other body parts depending on the frame. The player draw whatever s/he desires onto these frames and the game attempts to figure out how the monster would move about the three dimensional enviroment based on the design/framework of the monster. However this is more conforming than that of Magic Pengel, as Magic Pengel did not include frames, offering more freedom, and didn't simply mirror the drawing for the other leg/s / arm/s.

Get the Merritt Island mug.You city people are complaining that we invade you clubs and ruin them every weekend? Well then why don't you just get the hell out of the Hamptons and Fire Island b/c you crowd it and stink up our beaches every summer. You cause traffic every weekend. No one likes you.
The majority of you people who claim you are from NYC are either from one of the four boroughs that no one cares about, or from Manhattan, but you are originally from some hickass town outside of NY state in which you moved to the city to say your from NY.
Like a lot of other people have pointed out, Long Island has its rich areas and its poor areas. I live in a town on the south shore which is split: somewhat rich-middle class. The southern part of the town on the water is where kids have parents who will buy them a car, but not a fucking Porsche or Corvette...maybe a used Chevy from the early 90's. I live in the northern part of town where kids have to start working when they turn 14 if they want a decent used car by the time they are a senior in high school.
You also can't say that Long Island is ALL rich...you can't walk down the street in certain towns at night without being mugged. You NYCers should know this b/c certain Long Island towns are repeatedly on NYC news and newspapers. I would love to see some of you walk down the street in Central Islip, Brentwood, Wyandanch or Bay Shore and then we can talk about crime rates.
And if you have ever even been here, you would NOT call Long Island rural in comparison to other suburbias. Long Island has the highest population density for suburbs in the country, and you will not see any farms until you pass Patchogue, and compared to Upstate (north of the Tappenzee Bridge), it does not even come close to rural.
No one here thinks they are part of the city and we live here so we don't have to be a part of the city...you can ask ANY Long Island kid where their parents or grandparents grew up and they'll tell you the city, and obviously, they left the city for a reason.
