Lawn Guyland

the way people from long island, new york say the name of their hometown.
“did you see her huge teased hair? she must be from lawn guyland.”
the way in which everyone not from long island insists long islanders pr-nounce “long island”, regardless of how they actually pr-nounce it.
“where are you from?”

“long island.”

“bahahahaha, you just said lawn guyland ! and i’m not just saying so because i heard somewhere that people from long island do that.”
the supposed way that all long islanders pr-nouce the name “long island.” its mostly made up by nyc residents who like to poke fun at the long island accent (which can sound like a mixture of italian, jewish and new englander accents). despite this stereotype, most people who live on long island pr-nounce long island as long-eye-land.
i have lived here for my whole life, 21 years, and i have never said “lawnguyland”
the greatest place in the f-ckin’ earth!
floral park/huntginton in da house!
a place that new jerseyans are very fond of making fun of, even though the stereotypes and behavior of people from this locale and north jersey are almost indistinguishable.

see also staten island (which at least gave the world the wu-tang clan thereby somewhat justifying the continuing existence of the place).
guy from north jersey: look at that douchebag! he’s got to be from lawn guyland!
guy from south jersey: dude, he isn’t acting any differently than you and your friends! does that mean that you’re also a douchebag?!?
guy from north jersey: shut the f-ck up, man!
