Slavery

Holding a job.

Having to work.

Going to school.

Marriage.

Life.
Sadly, the vast majority of us are in slavery, whether it be based upon the necessity of a college degree, the expecation that one be in a lifelong relationship, need for financial resources (money), religious beliefs, social viewpoints, or whatever pointless reason.

It's very sad, but very true.

fella

Something girls used to refer to their boyfriends as - possibly back in the 50s or 60s.

Something that home-body girls still call their guys in modern times - usu. after becoming engaged.

Personal plea: Please, get with the times. No one but your grandma has any excuse to talk like that.
He's my fella. Isn't he dreamy?

set

Short for "television set". (or TV set). You know, that thing you watch when you're just chilling out at home.

Frequently spews forth dismal reports on the state of the world, pop-culture airhead fluff (such as reality shows), and who can forget the soaps.
"There's only one set, so whatever you watch, you know I have to watch it too."
-- Weird Al, "The Brady Bunch"

It could also be used for work, but it is most often used for class.

housemate

This term, commonly used by college-age students, is someone you share a house with (or, less commonly, an apartment).

These people were, to my knowledge, formerly known as "roommates," in virtually all contexts.

Housemate seems to be merely one of the many trendy terms being tossed around these days.

Here are possible reasons for this word's existence:

A) Perhaps it's supposed to have less of the negative stigma that the word "roommate" seems to carry with it.

B) Also possible is that roommate implies a closer relationship/friendship than simply housemate.
John, Dave, and Bill were looking for another housemate to share in the rent.

That guy across the hall, he's my housemate.
