Pencey Prep

1. Name of a (fictional) school that the character Holden Caulfield is kicked out of in the classic novel "The Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger.
2. Name of a band formerly fronted by Frank Iero, who is one of the guitarists for internationally popular alternative rock band My Chemical Romance, the front man for hardcore outfit Leathermouth, and owner/founder of Skeleton Crew Records and Clothing Label. The book came first, so it's assumed that Frank and his band mates are fans of "The Catcher in the Rye".

One of Pencey Prep's most popular songs goes by the title "The Secret Golfish"...yeah, I don't get it either.

Person 1: So there's this band Pencey Prep who are really awesome and I think their name is just so creative!
Person 2: Uh, yeah, they're pretty good. But Pencey Prep was taken from this old book...
Person 1: *kills Person 2 with blunt object*

Serial Monogamist

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.

Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
