Spooner

One who was brought up with a silver spoon in their mouth. An individual who was on the receiving end of free post-secondary education courtesy of Mummy and Daddy. A spooner is often heard spouting philosophical nonsense such as "Age is just a number and it's all in your head" and "It is what is, chief."

That young, professional engineer who views his paycheck as an entitlement sure is a gosh-damned spooner.
