local

someone with no personality, unique (but not really) to your area. they all look the same, talk the same, dress the same, and like the same things. they only listen to mainstream music, shop at PINK and hollister, drink gallons of starbucks, and, worst of all, think they're "alternative," "edgy" or "qUirKY" in some way. the word is often used by twitter stans to describe people outside of stan culture. see also: basic, normie, thot

local

local is a word mainly used on stan twitter to describe someone who says they 'stan' a specific person after a large achievement for that person (e.g when Ariana Grande dropped 'Thank u, next' she gained a lot of so called 'stans', you would call those people locals as they only like her for her huge hit instead of for the rest of her music/personality). It shouldn't be used to describe someone basic or someone who uses specific emojis (;

'wow please say that louder for the locals at the back'
'you're such a local'

localization

The act of making a product suitable for a culture foreign to its native region. For example, translating and recasting the voices of characters in an anime to English. This can also include some other modifications, such as changing a play on words or a common idiom native to the original region that wouldn't make sense in a foreign language, or even censorship of certain images and actions like removing a cigar from a character or replacing piles of bones with loaves of bread.

The Japanese and Korean localization of League of Legends excluded Graves' cigar because depictions of smoking would bump the rating of the game to 17+, making it inconsistent with the American version's rating.

The American English localization of the hit new game "Britain's Bikini Battlers" removed the "u" from color, flavor, behavior, harbor, honor, humor, labor, neighbor, rumor, splendor, favor, endeavor, clamor, glamor, valor, vapor... well, you get the picture. Also, they replaced the word "arse" with "ass" and got rid of the joke about Tories running through wheat fields.

local

someone in your area who is very generic who has no individuality. they only like anything that’s popular or overrated. they’re most likely not educated on important subjects or simply don’t care about them. locals tend to listen to post malone, drake, migos, cardi b and similar artists. they like the most mediocre memes or they don’t know what a meme is at all. they have an unfunny sense of humor. they try to be “relatable” or “quirky” but they’re just cringey

Person 1: “Ava is such a local! She thinks that she’s funny and ‘quirky’ because she posted that unfunny meme the other day!”

Person 2: “I know right! She has no personality.”

Locals

A better way to say "normies". Locals are the type of people who don't have a unique personality. They aren't really unique but for some reason, they try to be which doesn't end well. A sure way to make a baby grow into a local is by raising them into a small town and making them part of many communities as they grow and grow older. They are like bandwagons, but they don't copy everyone else. Sometimes you'll wonder if they are actually siblings with other locals or in fact twins. Or hell even clones.

God, Lincoln has so many locals, I wish someone was different for once. Wait, did you see that girl? She doesn't look from around here........maybe she can get me away from these overdramatic locals!!!
