Middle Trash 

Broadly denotes several divergent subcultures, most highly concentrated in college dormitories (or fraternities), indie rock concerts, and fixed gear bicycles. Bred out an almost brazen sense of immunity and entitlement, middle trash people sometimes joke that they live in a dirty house, binge drink and gorge on free samples because they are starving college students. This is usually stated with a smug irony, since their education is often well financed by parents or scholarships.

This excuse, or others that justify behavior that they would find reprehensible in those who didn't attend college or voted republican, is actually only invoked to defend a very small amount of middle trash behavior. This occurs because a surprising volume of wasteful fads, terrible bands, classist vitriol or noxious political doublespeak are integral to a proud self-image, often as someone outside the mainstream or simply smarter, more interesting and better than other people.

Finally, middle trash can also describe various exploitative and anti-nuanced appropriations, such as ironically flashing gang signs or wearing a kimono.

I went away for a week and the house reeks of garbage. My roommates are total middle-trash.

I just didn't like that the Chappelle's show was so popular with the Middle Trash.

Upper Middle Trash 

People who are on their way up but are still stuck with poor white trash behavior. People with enough money to buy a new car but not enough for health insurance. Pimps who pretend they are business executives. Night club owners. Gap managers. The entire porn industry.

Central California is populated by Upper Middle Trash.

Middle Class Trash 

An individual who is self absorbed and disinterested in others situations simply because they can be. They can often be heard dismissing others opinions and beliefs simply because they don’t agree with them. They think they’re in a higher class than they really are.

This guy just walked into Panera and went straight to the front of the line, when someone tried to say something to him he let them know he was a preferred customer. I thought everyone had a Panera card, that guy is Middle Class Trash.
