So Many Identities…

The period between when you turn an adult and when you finally settle down to an monotonous existence is most undefinable. However, that does not stop some of us from defining and redefining those tumultous times. You have heard of Yuppies. But have you heard of:

Dinkys (Double Income No Kids yet)

Sinbads (Single Income No Boyfriend Absolutely Desperate)

Sitcoms (Single Income Two Children Oppressive Marriage)

Whoopies (Well off Older Person)

TIREDs (Thirty-something Independent Radical Educated Dropout)

I am not even thirty yet and I am already TIRED.
