Stoke-on-Trent 

Although Stoke-on-Trent was voted worst city to live in, it isn't entirely true. Most definitions give the bad side of Stoke. However, I've seen the good side. Parts of Stoke that I've seen can be lush, green and full of wildlife. It can be a peaceful area full of polite old people. Plus, the oatcakes are DIVINE. Seriously. Have you ever tried cheesy oatcakes? People up there are also much more polite and intelligent then the plonkers down in, let's say, Basildon. Stoke also used to be one of Britain's main pottery manufacturers, are you forgetting that? It holds a big piece of England's history, and if you can't see that, fuck off back up your arsehole.

Stoke-on-Trent 

City in central England that is home to the most violent and hardened football fans in the country. Everyone that comes to Stoke should cower in fear. Officially the worst city in England and in the worst county Staffordshire. Anyone who doesn't like the place can fuck off back up their arseholes where they crawled out of and give up on being a stuck up cunt. Oh Stoke-On-Trent, is wonderful, Oh Stoke-On-Trent is WONDERFUL.
P.S. And its home to the Staffordshire Oatcake!!!! The most delightful snack available!!!!

Stoke-on-Trent 

A city in Staffordshire, England. Stoke is famous across the world for it's pottery industry. Many fine brands such as Wedgewood and Spode originate from Stoke.
However, the pottery industry is currently dying a sorry and painful death, due to Mexican sweatshops being a far cheaper source of plates and cups than England, with all it's health and safety laws and 'minimum wage' bollocks.
This has resulted in Stoke, formerly a haven for academic under-achievers due to the thousands of manual jobs in pot-banks, becoming a ghost town populated by recently redundant, now-unemployable, skilless (unless you see 'Fettling and Sponging' as a skill) troglodytes wandering about having fights with each other and/or students from the two local universities.

'Stoke-on-Trent' is also Mockney rhyming slang for 'Bent'. If you ever visit the place, you will see what a splendid aptronym-cum-epithet this is.
