North St Louis County

The area bordering some of the north part of St Louis City County (City Districts 5 and 6) within the jurisdiction and geography of St Louis County, Missouri. This includes Ferguson, Florissant, Bridgeton, Berkeley, Bellefontaine Neighbors, Riverview, Glasgow Village, Spanish Lake, Dellwood, Pine Lawn, Moline Acres, Castle Point, Normandy, etc. North St Louis County has some interesting history from radioactive waste being dumped at multiple sites to the stories of long term local families. Most of the municipalities in North St. louis county report crime rates both non violent and property that are higher than state averages for Missouri. This area is also heavily associated with black populations within the Metro area; however some areas like Bridgeton have maintained solid levels of black and white people for a decent amount of time with Census data without sharp declines of white populations like those noted in Normandy, Riverview, Glasgow, etc. The quality of public education is varied. Many landlords from out of state and sometimes out of country also mass-purchase properties in these communities without giving a damn about being responsible, and the properties get overtaken with crackheads and others who will become a neighborhood nuisance. There are many people who just can’t afford to move somewhere else but they are good people. Some parts of North County are also nice, and there are houses and neighborhoods that are safer within it.

Ex 2:
Martina: Did you know there’s actually a decent little farmer’s market in Spanish Lake that sells raw honey made on site?
Derrick: I didn’t know we had stuff like that in North St Louis County!

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!

Beavis: Um, okay. (heh heh heh heh).
