Can't find a word? Make one up.
Friday, September 25, 2009 at 12:55PM That's what I just did. What's the new, 21st Century term for a Yuppie? I don't want to use Yuppie. That conjures up bad hair, bad clothes and worse music. And, I think (but I'm not sure) drug dependence.
I checked www.urbandictionary.com and couldn't find it. So I've made one up. The word already exists, but I'm giving it a new usage.
Coffee.
Definition: A single, professional, urban woman who works too hard, stays up too late and consumes too much coffee in pursuit of her lifestyle.
Usage: That new chick in M&A is a total coffee. She never sleeps or takes a break. She seriously needs to chill.
Please use at will. But remember where you learned it, of course. I have submitted it to the urban dictionary. I hope it makes the cut.
