A small city in southeastern Los Angeles (The TRUE SOUTHEAST L.A - meaning there is a different gang in every block of the city and it is certified ghetto in the 323 area code) where its main inhabitants are mexicans and central-americans and their fucked up ghetto children (but mainly mexican of course). Many chicanos/latinos from here are proud to be from this city but have issues themselves involving unemployment, drugs,pregnancies aka baby momma drama, gangs, and other ghetto issues that plague any city in the 323. Most kids growing up here have friends and family in the surrounding cities of Bell,Bell Gardens, Huntington Park, Cudahy, South Gate, and East Los. It is one small city with plenty of hoods and everyone knows everyone because half them bitches are mitoteros aka fuckin' brown nosers that are always up in people's business.

There's also free wifi throughout the city, a nice new park by the LA river, and its one of the few cities in LA that grant immigration Amnesty due to the fact that the cops were harrassing the immigrants that lived there and the corrupt ass politicians and cops were booted after a decade or two of being greedy bastards.
Person 1: where you from man?

person 2: I'm from the true southeast LA homie. I'm from Maywood.

Person 1: Orale! I remember that rally on slauson ave. where the gavachos were pissed cuz they granted immigration amnesty and shit.. crazy shit que no?

Person 2: yup

Person 1: Don't let the cholos shoot you foo, peace.
Maywood by maywooder June 28, 2010
A Maywood is an unlucky reaction to facial hair some women may have. It occurs on the inner thighs, and is therefore caused by receiving oral sex from someone with huge sideburns or a large beard. It looks like a normal rash, presenting the standard red and white pigment change. It is easily cured with either a cream, or simply shaving the beard off.

Marywood University 

Marywood University is a coeducational, Catholic liberal arts university located on a 115-acre campus in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Established in 1915 by the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and currently enrolls approximately 3,500 students on a national award-winning campus considered one of the most beautiful in the northeast.

Although the college is considered a Catholic college, many of the students that attend, do not associate with this religion or participate in the religious affiliation on campus.

According to the Princeton Review, Marywood is number 14 on the list of cold stone sober, however this is not true. The University is famous for covering up their students drunken mistakes rather then letting the public know their students party. Reputation is an important thing to them. Scranton has a great college life and finding parties to attend is not hard to do.

Despite being a smaller University they have 9 residence halls in which students may live.

Marywood also offers a wide variety of food for their students. There are 5 different stations which serve a wide selection of food every single day. And unlike most colleges, the menu changes every day. They also have a sandwich station, salad bar, and an ice cream bar.

There is also The Atrium, Connections, Study Grounds, and First Stop.

Marywood is a division III school.
There are 8 Varsity Mens sports and 9 Varsity womens sports.
1:Hey where are you going to College?
2: Marywood University!

Marywood University 

A small, private, Catholic college nestled in the outskirts of Scranton, PA. It is half druggies and half religious freaks. People attend Marywood because scholarships are handed out like lollipops. Also, they don't want to have to admit that they attend Lackawanna Community College or Scranton University. The advisors are notorious for screwing you over in every way possible.
"I go to Marywood University because I love Jesus, plus i got a $100,000 scholarship."

"I live in Scranton, PA. Don't worry, it's for my education, not enjoyment."

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
