Loquo: We left the hotel with more bags of sh*t than we came in with. The cleaning lady came in, and the room was already clean. LOL, man we elgin-ed everything!
DP: Did you elgin the free towels down at the pool?
Loquo: Naw, man, I forgot. Next time, though!
DP: Man, I wheeled the whole cart outside; threw it in the truck; passed out towels like beers, when I got back to campus.
A: Right on, dog!

n. An act of cultural vandalism, Originates from the actions of Thomas Bruce 7th Earl of Elgin, in removing much of the sculpture from the Parthenon in the early C19 to decorate his house in Scotland. Debts later forced him to sell the above sculptures to the British Museum where they become known as the Elgin Marbles.
Also Fr. Elginisme

The Cuneiform tablets available on Ebay are yet another example of unchecked Elginism in the 21st century.

The largest city Northwest of Chicago. It is home of the Elgin watches, with 11 companies nation-wide. Has 3 public High schools: Elgin High, Larkin High, and Gifford Street High/ Central (for the little bad ass teenagers). Elgin has a community college. People from Elgin/ Elginites, get along very well with people from Carpentersville, Rockford, Bensenville, Waukegan, and Chicago. Now just like any other large city Elgin has a high crime rate. Elgin also has a very nice side of town and a very grimey side of town. Also known as the cutt. In around the 70's gangs started getting big in Elgin. As of now the MLD's "run" Elgin. People might also know Elgin by its nicknames like: Evil~E, HellGin, Da Gin, Da ELG & Da E~Town. Now people who never lived in Elgin should never look down on Elgin. It has upcoming musicians, athletes etc. I will always love Elgin this is my hometown. I'm repping Da Evil~E like a mascot!

A ghetto ass city in Illinois with a whole bunch of hispanics and blacks. Has a east side and a west side. West sides bad but the east side is where all the tweaks, hoes, alchoholics & gangstas are. It has a poulation of about 150,000 people and about 90,000 are criminals. Theres about a killing every other week. But even though with all this crap in this city I still love it.
