as is

The way things currently are, the status quo.

The X

Abbreviation for King's Cross, Sydney, which is a red light district near Sydney's downtown area. While it is known for its strip clubs, streetwalkers and brothels, it is also home to many popular bars and nightclubs. The major landmark of King's Cross is a large, iconic neon Coca Cola sign that overlooks William St.

Walking through the Cross at night, most people are either completely fubared, or they're making transactions involving sex, drugs or kebabs.

"I was wandering through the X at 3AM last Friday, munted off my face, when some guy kept pestering me to go into his strip club. After I'd told him I wasn't interested for the 17th time, he asked if I wanted a kebab instead"
