When somebody finally realises that they are over 25, still hang around in the parks trying to get laid, still live with their parents, and need to do something more productive with their life.
Man i've wasted my life trying to lay young chicks, i could have been earning a living than earning the reputation of a sleazy pervert

The QLC is when you realize that you have to be Responsible. It is when the job you accept is the beginning of a Career Path. It is when the guy/girl you date might be The One. It is when you realize you spend more time at Happy Hour than anywhere else because it is the only place people complain more than you. It is when you know every word to Avenue Q: I Wish I Could Go Back To College.

Mid-life crisis (MLC, not to be confused with TLC) is a very common among people ranging from 30-50 years of age. In every aspects of our lives, mid-life crisis finds its voice through every passage of our lives. People with mid-life crisis falsely believed that they are young (from ages 15-25). They drive a Corvette, Mustang, and other sports vehicles. On a daily basis, people with mid-life crisis can be discovered/hunt down on regular college campuses. People with mid-life crisis can be best described by using the term-"middy-life." Middy-lifes have an untrammeled desire to achieve a feeling of youthfulness and horniness. The effects of mid-life crisis can lead an individual to evolve into a pedo bear.

the time when, halfway to the midlife crisis, you realize that you have spent the last 10 years drooling over playboy bunnies that you have no chance with, drinking enough beer to intoxicate an entire middle school, and fantasizing about a house and car that you could have bought if you wouldnt have spent $120,000 on a private university or two instead of becoming a plumber (seriously, master plumbers with five years experience make 46000 without a degree); also right about the time when college/high school girls start calling you "sir" and stop thinking you are anything but the creepy dude at the club
College grad: Boy, I would love to have a a Lexus IS300 with chameleon paint.
Owner of Lexus IS300 with chameleon paint: I can't even read.

"My parents told me I can do anything with my life, be anyone I want to be and that the possibilities are endless...not like in their generation"
A new term for those born in Gen Y. It refers to the time when you have completed college or University and you have no clue whether you want to get married, be single, find a career, travel the world, invest, spend, start your own business, move to another city or country, settle in one place, go back to school, pay back debt... basically an exciting yet horrid time when you are happy one day, suicidal the next, and during it all.. all you can think about is... "If my 20's are supposed to be the best time of the life, then why I am so fucking CONFUSED?"
