The pursuit of a career in an area one is passionate about, often living on limited resources, when higher paying careers, though unwanted, are attainable
The juggling of several part time jobs, ideally related to one's passion, to earn enough money to live off of which allows time to develop a creative skill
The desire for a more fulfilling livelihood often stymied by crippling debt and/or self-doubt
A play on words based on the Austin-American Statesman newspaper in Austin, Texas.

A play on words based on the Austin-American Statesman newspaper in Austin, Texas.
Sheila hated her old job as a curriculum developer. Now she has two part time jobs teaching kids music and writing, and she has time to pursue her acting career. She's happier getting by on less because she's living the Austin-American dream.
Dylan's been working at the record store forever. He's an expert in music especially obscure stuff. He'll never sell out. He's living the Austin-American dream, for real.
Melody teaches art classes all over town and has shows of her own. She tried working at a collections agency once and walked out. She knows the Austin-American dream is the only life for her.
Janice wishes she could quit her job and become a fashion designer, but she has too much debt and doesn't think she could make money. She doesn't think the Austin-American dream is realistic enough for her, at least not now.

Get the Austin-American dream mug.The loud american is an obnoxious buffoon, one who, even though may be in a quiet room feels the need to talk at the top of their voice, also known to excessive bragging. Compounded when combined with the Ignorant american
NOTE: Not all americans are loud, some seem to be actually quite normal, it just seems the ones on holiday wherever i am happen to be of the LOUD variety.

Christened in 2007 by Pickles, the American Sip is the act of consuming vast amounts of alcohol in a single period without breathing. A liken to chugging, American Sippage is a way to super pass alcohol into the system. It is a two step process:
1. Open Bottle.
2. Relax throat muscles let the alcohol flow down.
It should be noted that the period of drinking alcohol must last longer than 15 seconds. Furthermore, the American sip only applies to liquor: think Jack Daniel's, Whiskey, Bourbon, Scotch, Captain Morgan, Tequila, Vodka.
It should also be noted the feminine version is called American Sipe.

1. Holy shit James just American Sipped fucking Jack Daniel's... TWICE! Like that took a good chunk out of the 26er.
2. Edwin clutched the bottle of Captain Morgan's, and standing with the strength of a thousand alcoholics, performed the American Sip, knocking the 40.oz bottle from half full to quarter in a single blow.
3. Cameron instinctively grabbed a bottle of Scotch from the dresser, and in an instant, and with the power of alcoholism, American Sipped the bottle out of this reality.
4. "I betcha that's water," Bob said to Jim.
Jim, "I betcha watch this!" and in one American Sip, the mickey of Smirnoff went from FULL to EMPTY.
5. And on the Old New Year, Vladimir managed to American Sip the Smirnoff 26er half way down in a single blow. Representing all proud Russian and alcoholics, everywhere.
6. Waking up, Denny instinctively grabbed the bottle of mixed liquor, the contents for which he did not know. And then he American Sip'd the fucker down to wash the taste of old marijuana and hooker spit away. As a consequence of his action he went fucking blind - but hey, if it's in a bottle, it's drinkable.
