A town of about 30,000 residents in southwest Pennsylvania 90 minutes east of Pittsburgh. Its claim to fame is the Johnstown Flood of 1889, in which more than 2,200 died--the deadliest disaster in the U.S. until 9/11. The people are very nice in Johnstown, PA, but the town is extraordinarily religious, maybe because there is not much to do other than go to church, bowling, or to a dive bar. Newcomers may find it difficult to break into the well established social groups, since most of the residents have known each other since childhood. It has quite a number of large cemeteries. The population is mostly white. There are very, very few sidewalks and limited public transportation in this very hilly town. Unemployment is a serious problem here and the average wage is almost unlivably low, but housing costs are low, too. The main sources of employment are health care, defense, telemarketing, and retail.
I'm reluctant to stay in Johnstown, PA, because I will die broke, bored, and lonely.

Faux Pas means literally translated 'False Step'
It is when someone make a 'Social mistake' such as doing something unaccepted or saying something wrong.

A place where everyone is either fake, a bitch, or retarder. It's a shitty town, filled with scum bags and two faced bitches with the personal hygiene of chimpanzee.
" look at the dirty monkey." " No son, he's just from Easton pa."

Ranked 87th and 88th best town to live in during 2007 and 2009. Home to Emmaus High School, one of the richest, snobbiest, and well educated schools in the state. 70% of the school is upper-middle class or flat out loaded (all the snobs, jocks, and spoiled kids), 10% think they're ghetto cause they live on the other side of the tracks (1% of that is actually ghetto, typically originally from NY), 10% are hardcore/scene/emo/metal/hipster and the final 10% is smart kids that are poor who get scholarships to good schools and become parents to the other 70%. Has large influx in a newer population from New Jersey and New York. Mostly non-violent town, however the residents love their drugs, especially born from the 80's on, but not as bad as Salisbury and Bethlehem. Known for having good burn runs from the south of emmaus into vera cruz. Nothing ever to do, but close enough to get to Philly or NY. Cops get new cruisers or SUVs more often then rich people get new mercedes. The young population all drive Honda or VW's with fart can mufflers and race them on Lehigh st. people in emmaus like to waste money on something to make them look better than someone else.
I'm visiting family in Emmaus PA, their guest room is bigger than any room in my house/appartment.

A classical suburban hellhole located directly beneath the big brown shitstain on your map of Pennsylvania, known for it's extended use of bupes (once Heroin) and the red-blooded conservative bastards who illogically hate the Mexicans because of it.
Lewistown is occupied primarilly by pretentious, white, protestant, xenophobic, working-class individuals who have no clue what the word "xenophobic" means. The local high school students have begun to take pride in their football team's unbelievable losing streak.

A typical conversation in Lewistown, PA:
- "Gee, I sure hate those Goddamn Mexicans."
- "Yeah, they come up here and steal our jawbs down at the chicken plant.. Goddamn spicks."
- "Boy, I'm glad I got that out of my system. Let's go shoot up some heroin!"
- "Awright, as long as you didn't buy it from no Goddamn beaners."

A major breach of etiquette. In other words a social blunder.
Girl: Can I play the guitar next to Keith in church?
Boy (loudly so that every churchgoer in the congregattion can hear): So you fancy him them?
Now, my boy, that is a faux pas.
