The propensity of some longtime residents to lose perspective about how good they have it compared to most of the world (and other, less privileged SF residents) and start complaining about trivial shit. SFEB often sets in during the fifth year of living in San Francisco and becomes incurable by the tenth year.

entitlement whoring

When someone roves the countryside screwing up everyone else's life because they feel and behave as if everything is owed to them and they owe nothing, by the mere fact of their existence, and just feeling like it should be that way. Lifting a finger to pay their own way, and cover their own ass, is beyond the pale. This behavior is predominantly prevalent in the United States, occasionally employed by princes, kings, assorted royalty, empirialists, colonialists, conquistadors, the Spanish Inquisition, the Holy Roman Empire, but mostly just prevalent in America.

romantic entitlement

Two ethical problems that arise when an individual asks someone out. They include:
-The assumption that if you ask someone out, then they have to say yes to the person who asked them out. However, this is not true as it is up to the person getting asked to decide. They should say no if they don’t like you to avoid causing both of you to suffer a lot of unnecessary pain down the line.
-The presumption by one or both of the people involved that it is acceptable to spread bad rumors about the other person if the person asking the individual out gets rejected. This leads to unnecessary conflict and distrust of each other which benefits neither of you. Just because it didn't work out does not mean that they are entitled to spread bad rumors about each other or that you two can't be friends anymore.
Romantic entitlement causes a lot of unnecessary suffering to a large number of people. People should try to avoid making these presumptions about romantic relationships in order to reduce their own and the person they like's suffering.

elder entitlement

A thought process / frame of mind that most if not all baby boomers have in which they feel they are entitled to do whatever to whom ever they wish without consequences due to their status as elders in society. This thought process transcends race ,religion, culture or sexual orientation. The common denominator is the fact that they are elderly. Other lesser forms / sub-cultures of this frame of mind exist within younger generations such as millennial and gen Z as well as different races and sexual orientations but are minimal as others of the same sub types quickly quash the nonsense and get their respective sociters back in line and place.
Person 1.Goddamn... you see grandma just push our cart out of the way and cut infront of us ?
Person 1. MA'AM..WE WERE ALREADY IN LINE.

Elder. FUCK OFF.. I'm in a hurry. You can wait.
Person 1. MA'AM.. I'm trying not to be rude. Please don't swear at me. Please get out of line and go to the back. Be considerate of those you you just cut infront of.
Elder ..FUCK OFF!!!!
Person.. wow.. your elder entitlement is really showing today. What an old bitch.

sense of entitlement

A mental disorder shared largely by inner city residents. Symptoms usually include the following:
