Get the unfortunate looking mug.Older, pop culture phrase referencing the 1977 film of the same name starring Diane Keaton. Used to describe a (still) all too common cultural phenomenon and stereotype, whereupon entering a local watering hole, one spots a noticeably middle aging female who, without asking her, one can already glean the following details :
1. she's endlessly looking for a new job or career;
2. she's incessantly looking for a new romantic partner (or the next good lay she can drum up);
3. she's constantly looking for the next place to live (in the immediate vicinity or ANYWHERE for that matter);
4. she's perpetually looking for that 'next big thing' she can't name or describe (and obviously hasn't found yet and, like a character out of a Fitzgerald or Richard Yates novel, probably never will - 'where ARE all those golden people in that golden place ?');
in a phrase, she's a female sad bastard. She's looking for mr. goodbar.

There's Jane - again - blonde hair and blue-eyed, sitting at the bar, martini or glass of wine in hand and that all too familiar look on her face; an expression that evokes a thousand words, phrases and even questions but can be succinctly boiled down to the following : what's the matter, hon ? looking for mr. goodbar?
