The period in your life occuring between 20 and 30 years of age, when you realize that a quarter of your life is over and :
a) You've done nothing constructive with it
- AND -
b) You've set yourself up for another quarter just like it.
You may be experiencing a quarter life crisis if :
a) You ever ask yourself what the h*** you are doing with your life
b) You regret half of the last 10 years
c) You consider changing jobs/homes/partners/all of the above to somehow improve your life
d) You feel lost and confused 23.5 hours out of a 24 hour day
e) You wonder how you will ever find job security/afford a house at today's prices/find a partner if you're working all the time/get out of your parents' house if your debt is costing you every dime you make/afford rent while it keeps going up/find a job that pays the bills/pay off your debt/all of the above. Usually all of the above.
Often confused by kids with adolesence, puberty, or hormonal problems. Feeling "misunderstood" and dressing all in black is not a quarter life crisis - it is being a teenager.
Basically, you wake up one morning and think to yourself, "Man - I'm totally screwed." You then proceed to consolidate your debt, look for a better job, and spend more time sleeping - because when you're asleep, you don't have to worry about how screwed you are.

Get the Quarryville mug.Related Words
This is a guy that a girl keeps "on the bench" or at an arm's length just in case she breaks up with her boyfriend. He usually is crazy about her, very good looking and very eager "to get into the game". Just like a backup quarterback in football.
Maggie asked Scarlett, "You just broke up with Ted a week ago, who was that hunky guy you were cozy with last night?"
Scarlett replied, "Oh, that's Chuck. I've known him for a while and called him into the game." Maggie exclaimed, "That was quick!" To which Scarlett replied, "Well, honey, you don't win championships or the Super Bowl without a backup quarterback."
