An MTV "reality" show which presents a highly accurate portrayal of what "the real world" is "really" like. Upon college graduation, we're all inevitably thrust into this scary "real world" where a music channel jets us off to an exotic locale and puts us up in an obscenely gorgeous house overlooking an equally obscenely gorgeous beach. And just like in the "real world" we get to experience this standard of living without paying a single dime in rent. I shudder with terror every time I view it because it serves as a constant and painful reminder of what I had to endure in my early 20's when I was living in a Tuscan villa for free. But that which doesn't kill us, makes us stronger.
If you didn't sense the heavy sarcasm in my "Real World" definition, then you most definitely are NOT living in the "Real World".

When MTV first broadcast "The Real World" it was a cool show. Now it's scripted like all the other so-called "reality shows" on TV.
Every season of "The Real World" has the same damn characters:
1) THE SUAVE BLACK DUDE;
2) THE STUPID WHITE GUY;
3) THE HOUSE SLUT;
4) THE "TOKEN" (token gay, token Asian, etc.);
5) THE WEIRD ONE;
6) THE NAIVE KID/GIRL FROM A SMALL TOWN; and
7) THE CRAZY ONE.

1. The world outside the Internet.
2. The world outside the education system/academia.
3. The world as experienced by those who are not wealthy and have no friends in high places.

1. Sorry I haven't been in the chatroom lately, the real world got in the way.
2. All those bleedin'-heart intellectuals ain't got no idea 'bout the real world.
3. She has such an easy life. She should try living in the real world sometime.

An oxymoronic depiction of seven young adults who are paid to live together and squabble over rediculous subjects. These seven people in no way represent a typical cross-section of their peers.
There is absolutely nothing real about the real world. Wanna see the real world? Try watching a guy work his way through college by surviving off of 25 cent ramen noodles. That's the real world beeyaitch!

I turned on my tv this morning and the real world was on. I turned on my tv 7 hours later and the real world was still on. I turned on my tv 23 hours later and the real world was still on. I shoot my tv.
