A city across the train tracks from Mountain View. Full of old people and rich white kids who act ghetto because they know they're so far from the hood they won't get shot.

Jul 26 Word of the Day
Noun: a friend who is usually only called upon by a friend when a more primary/prominent friend is unavailable.

Taken from the term “second string” in an athletic competition situation. In football, if the star quarterback gets injured during a play, the second string is called off the bench to replace him/her. A “Second String Friend” is essentially benched until needed, if ever.

Synonyms: Plan B, Second Choice, Secondary Friend, Benched Until Needed
I got a call from X the other night. She had an extra ticket to a concert she bought for a friend, but they couldn’t make it so she called me to ask if I wanted to go because I am her Second String Friend.

A town in the bay area/silicon valley in northern California. It started as a apricot orchard or something, and grew into the glorious haven for upper-middle class citizens in the area we now talk about. Mostly full of old people who are real assholes, 5th graders to seniors who wonder around the town being douches and smoking weed, and their parents, who seem completely oblivious to what goes around in town. Not much happens in this town, its a big heap of boring shit. The town thinks that a hotel would be a better thing to have than a movie theater, which shows how far up its own ass this town is. Los Altos is full of spoiled white kids with a few minorities thrown in their, and there is really no diversity in the town. Los Altos is the town that everyone who lives there is well off, and can the people can practically get whatever they want. If you want to live in Los Altos, have fun with... whatever we have in this town.
Person 1: Hey man, did you hear about all of that hardcore shit coming from Los Altos?
Person 2: No

Los Altos, California is a city that borders Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Mountain View, and Palo Alto.

The TOWN of Los Altos Hills is for rich people who literally have a supreme court case allowing them to mandate homes be half an acre or larger.

The LAPD are probably bored out of their minds, hoping to bust an aigga robbin' the hood. Or maybe they're protecting San Carlos, CA from anti-tech vandals. Hope for the latter. Pray for the latter.
I grew up in "Loyola Corners" of Los Altos, CA from 1985-95, and it had a reputation of being the "hippie neighborhood".

Then we moved to Shallow Alto because of the "school" "system".

Palo Alto sucks, Los Altos rules.
