Welcome to Astoria. An N ride 5 stops from Manhattan. If you live here and you talk to somebody else who's not from Astoria, the first question you will automatically hear is "Are you Greek?". If you're a white kid, you went to McClancy or some other Catholic School, if you're not you went to LIC or Bryant. You know about Ravenswood and Queensbridge. And you realize that the streets closest to the East River are fucked up.
But Astoria is still the greatest
Astoria by A. S. June 19, 2006
An area on the western side of Queens, New York City. Your only zone schools are LIC and Bryant High school. One of the most diverse neighborhoods with almost every ethnicity possible. You know about Astoria projects, Ravenswood And Queensbridge. HAs many beautiful places such as Astoria Park which is the place to be during the summer. Crazy nightlife, teenage drinking and a hookah bar on every block, Astoria is one of the places to be.
We out to Astoria later or what?
Astoria by aqszfinest January 31, 2009
A neighborhood on the western end of Queens, New York. Renowned for its large Greek immigrant population, Astoria is also a traditional Italian stronghold. More recently, the area has become a gloriously polyglot mixture of almost every identifiable ethnic group on the planet while also providing residence for large numbers of white middle-class twenty- and thirtysomethings from the rest of the United States. Currently favored for its relatively low rents, relatively low crime rates, European-style cafe culture, and phenomenal variety of ethnic restaurants and grocers. Shows a pleasant tendency to be immune to the average wave of mall-culture gentrification; Starbucks and the Gap may be present, but not in a way that overwhelms the whole situation. On the other hand, the subway situation is marginal at best and often infuriating.
Average person on 30th avenue: God, what am I going to have for dinner? Pizza, Chinese, something at a cafe, Indian, Mexican, Japanese, Greek, Thai, Brazilian, five pints of Guinness, something from that Latin place, a burger, vegetarian...if only the kitchen in my apartment wasn't so useless.

Resident watching hordes of Italians hanging out of cars, waving flags, screaming, laughing, dancing, screwing in the streets: I guess the World Cup final is over.

Upper West Side resident visiting Astoria-based friend: Your rent is HOW MUCH?!?!?

Resident heading back home after a show at the Mercury Lounge: Friggin' impossible stupid N train....

Resident headed to work on a random morning: Friggin' impossible stupid N and W trains....

Astoria Greengrass 

The object of hatred for thousands of women across the planet! The cause of mass suicides of hundreds of fangirls! An irritating, undeserving, rat faced...okay okay I'll do it properly...

A pure blooded Slytherin witch with dark hair, and a very good looking one too (dammit). Younger sister of Daphne Greengrass and two years below Harry Potter at Hogwarts.

Known for being the bloody lucky woman who gets to marry (the extremely hot, attractive, gorgeous) Draco Malfoy (curses! damn her!). She bears his son (damn her again!) Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy (who blatantly goes on to marry Rose Weasley, just thought I'd put that in), who starts at Hogwarts in 2016.

Regarded with emotions ranging from slight jealousy to EXTREME HATRED by fangirls all over the planet, and subject to many plots in which she dies horribly so they can take her place (haw haw). Well, what do you expect WE wanted to marry him for crying out loud!
Potthead No.1: So what do you guys think of the Epilogue?

Potthead No.2: I love it! I'm glad Draco becomes a slightly reformed character, as he went through a lot, and he wasn't evil in the end. I always thought he had a crush on Hermione but I'm glad he finds happiness with that Astoria Greengrass, whoever the hell she is...who is she anyway?

Fangirl No.1: SHE'S A BITCH AND I FREAKING HATE HER! ARRRGH!

Fangirl No.2: I KNOW RIGHT! HOW DARE SHE MARRY MY FICTIONAL HUSBAND! SHE MUST DIE!

Fangirl No.3: *reads epilogue* NOOO! THE BITCH! THE BITCH! *kills self*

fache-couture 

French slang, which translated, means "bull's fashion" but basically equates to "hyper trendy" or overly trendy. Used when a person wishes to express distaste at the latest fashion trend/fad, because it seems that everyone has a certain item of clothing or is wearing it. This term is most frequently heard in Paris but is slowly spreading to other parts of France.
1. That Burberry scarf is so fache-couture.
2. That purple American Apparel hoodie is so fache-couture.
