Quincy, Illinois 

A city near the Mississippi River that is hands-down the worst place on earth.

Everyone here is either:
A)old, sick, or both
B)FSD
C)drunk or on drugs
or
D)dying to get out

Quincy is horrible. If you don't make it out by 25, you're stuck here forever. It is a cultural abyss. Trends make it here about 3 years after they've been popular everywhere else. Everyone mispronounces everything. Everyone goes deerhunting. The men have no limits to their stupidity and the girls are either super Christians or total whores.

Don't ever come here.
Please.
Quincy, Illinois is a great place to be from, but a horrible place to live.

Quincy, Illinois 

The place where dreams come to die.
A cultural wasteland with no redeeming qualities.
The 'city' is pretty much ruled by crotchety old people who are easily annoyed. People are devoid of any form of entertainment besides movies, church, and eating themselves to death at the many resturaunts and bars, (They out number ALL other businesses). We have a college that requires religious courses to attend and a community college that just plain sucks....

The WEATHER makes front page news, for christ sake!

Nothing ever happens here.
Except birth, meth, teenage pregnancy, and death.
There are more dead people here than living.
Total living: 40, 100 Buried: 42,000 IN ONE cemetery!
We have at LEAST five.

Agree with definition #1. Worst place to live. Best place to die.
I REALLY hate myself;so I'll commit suicide. Drugs are too pricey, guns are too quick, and slitting my wrists too messy. I know! I'll just move to Quincy, Illinois!

Officer I was just visiting family in Quincy. Is the beating and prison really called for because of a failure to signal?
Have you seen those b-movies where the hot girls go through the small town and get arrested for trumped up charges and forced to do hot late night kinds of things. That's Quincy, Illinois only to everyone hot or not and no cool sex to speak of unless your consider the reaming you get at court.

Yes could I get the Johnny law special with no lube please.

Quincy, Illinois 

A place where dreams can be restored. When you don't like the way it is change it. Give your best.

Many people here are hurting. The drugs and negative lifestyles are a cry for help. Burdens weigh heavy. Men are thought to treat women like crap because of the example they have in their lives. Women accept harm and destruction in their lives because they see their mothers accept it. Quincy isn't a horrible place to live we just need change and God to change our hearts on how we view Quincy. We can make a choice, either sit and watch it fall apart or get out and make a change.

God is only limited by your faith and belief. He can make the change.

Kansas City, Kansas meets Paola, Kansas.
Q: Have you ever been to Quincy, Illinois? A: Yes. I saw a burned out stolen car down by the co-op.... It was like a mixture of KCK and Paola.

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
