A basic and boxy housing style that was prevalent in East Vancouver, Canada, during a housing boom in the 60's and 70's. Cheap and easy to build, houses were 2 level structures with a basement that was easily converted into an illegal rental suite.
--Hey man, I heard you just bought a house.
--Yeah, it's a Vancouver special. I hope to flip it quickly but the basement suite should cover the mortgage in the meantime.

Tucking one's erect member into ones waistband to avoid detection whilst in public.
My date with that really hot girl would have gone bad if it weren't for the Vancouver maneuver.

gods gift of beautiful scenery on the west coast, home to hippies on the small islands of denmanand hornby and weed growers alike plus a large population of hicks on upper vancouver island around the comox valley and surrounding areas. Being on the west coast yields more rain on vancouver island than the rainforest during a monsoon season and the combination of that rain and the limestone landscape makes vancouver island a rich karst region with an estimated 2000 or so caves to be discovered. The island is also a place to find some amazing scuba diving and artifical reefs such as 2 sunken battleships near the city of nanaimo. The island boast a rich variety of beaches, rivers, lakes, mountains and skiing, campsites, fishing, and plenty of protected parks making it a beautiful place to call home.

One of the most depressing spots in the world. It is stated as the 4th largest city in the state of Washington, when in reality it is just an extremely large suburb of Portland Oregon. Vancouver is primarily a residential area, with everyone typically commuting to portland for work (Hence the term "suburb"). The most common nick names for Vancouver are "The Couve" and "Vantucky", the ladder of which refers to the staggering amount of white trash that call Vancouver Home.
Anyone who says they love Vancouver has either never been outside the city limits or is referring to Vancouver's big sister up in Canada. In fact in a recent survey, 9 out of 10 people said they would actually up and leave town if they had the means. The other 10% began sobbing and shaking uncontrollably, knowing that it would never happen.
If you looked at young woman who had just recently moved to Vancouver, and checked up on her 10 years later, you would find that she would be living in a decrepit 50s style ranch house with an abusive husband, 6 children, a diseased Pitbull and an addiction to some sort of illicit drug.
Vancouver changes you.
Many experts have tried deducing why Vancouver is such an overwhelmingly boring and depressing place. Some point to the weather. Others blame the lack of entertainment in Vancouver.
In short, Vancouver Washington may well be one of the worst places on earth.
"Hey have you been here before?"
"Where?"
"This place. Vancouver Washington."
"Nope, my buddy said it was a total hell hole though."
"Oh ok."

When you make plans with a small group of friends to have a board game night, cocktails, etc, only to have them all bail within an hour of the start-time. It's typical of the Vancouver social scene, which ensures people don't develop deep connections.
"Hey man, sorry I can't make your party tonight. Got something else going on."
"C'mon man, you RSVP'd two weeks ago. If you don't come, I'm gonna Get Vancouvered by everyone!

Typical Asian girl who grew up in Vancouver or the neighbouring suburbs. Loves expensive brand names, clothes from Aritzia, and always carries an expensive bag such as Gucci or Chanel. Usually done up spending lots of money on hair, nails, and makeup. Has a group of Asian girlfriends whom you'll always see with her at Asian night clubs. Concerned with money and very superficial, tends to date Asian gangsters who will buy them whatever they want. Often doesn't go to college, instead choosing to live off their parents/boyfriends or work at nail/hair salons, retail stores such as Bebe.
Girls who work at Bebe in Vancouver, The group of Asian girls at Asian night clubs who act like they're all that, Typical Asian gangster/drug dealer's girlfriend, Daughters of well off Asian parents who make a living off of drug-related activity, Asian girls at Metrotown who walk around with fake eyelashes, done up hair, fake boobs, and wayy too much dark makeup for the day time, Vancouver Girl

A god forsaken town located in the PNW on the Columbia River. It is often referred to as "the couve" by locals. Located right at the border of Washington and Oregon, it is often confused with it's sister city Vancouver Cananda. Vancouver is named after Captain Vancouver duh who came down the Columbia River and built Fort Vancouver. Vancouver is a growing city, Clark County where it is located is the fastest growing county in Washington.
Vancouver is half trash/half suburbs. East Vancouver is full of suburbs and housing developments. Alot of scene kids, and goth kids live here. West Vancouver is full of trashy houses and alot of meth heads.
Not everything about Vancouver is bad, it is located right across the river from Portland, Oregon. And there is always the river which is nice to look at.
It is too bad that nearly all kids/teenagers hate Vancouver with a passion and the most common phrase heard is "Are you going to Portland?" Or "I fucking hate Vancouver" Most teenagers dream to escape to Portland or perhaps Seattle. For the most part, only older people like Vancouver, and they suffer to make their children live in this city.
Tragedy strikes Vancouver often it seems, as two teenagers were murdered this year, and it seems as though there are more shootings/baby killing not abortions and roberys every day.
One is lucky to escape Vancouver.
Scene kids:
scene kid #1:"hey man, are you going to the new bleeding xxx my heart show in Portland"
scene kid #2:"No man, my mom fucking grounded me, all I did was borrow her eyeliner"
everyone else:
kid #1:"I'm bored, there's nothing to do"
kid #2:"I know, I fucking hate Vancouver Washington, I can't wait to move"
