When your college roommate keeps you out of the room because they need it for sex
Tommy: dude, it's 11pm. Aren't you going to bed?
William: I've been exiled, man. Trent brought in another bitch.
Tommy: what?! But that's the third time this week!.
William: I know. (sighs)

social exile

being physically exiled from where you go to school or where you live because of the poor decisions you made. This includes social banishing from your former group of friends, being forced to move to another state in the middle of nowhere. Social exiles usually get 'day passes' to return to temporarily return from their place of exile, and expect for their former friends to simply socialize with them just because they're back. Social exiles get extremely disappointed when they realize that life continues on without their presence and no one has really missed them.
Jenny from Gossip Girl is a social exile. She now lives in social oblivion. She occasionally got a day pass to return to New York and left the Upper East Side every time with her tail between her legs.

Claire fucked up her relationship with everyone she knew and she pissed her guardians off. She failed at committing suicide. Because she fucked up at life, she was socially exiled to Nowhere Arkansas, population 25. She was given a 'day pass' to return to Coolsville and was dissmayed when she realized that no one had forgotten nor forgave what she had done and that no one cared for her anymore .

the exies

Simply one of the best bands ever.
Short for the existentialists(A philosophy that emphasizes the uniqueness and isolation of the individual experience in a hostile or indifferent universe, regards human existence as unexplainable, and stresses freedom of choice and responsibility for the consequences of one's acts)
In proper English, it is philosophy, everyone is different, humans are basically unexplainable mistakes, although band members themselves don't take it quite so literally, basically they are just John Lennon fans.
The Exies are:
Scott Stevens - vocals, guitar
Freddy Herrera - bass, vocals
Chris Skane - guitar, vocals and they KICK ASS
"Are the exies on tour any time soon? i simply can't wait to see them live and be deafened by my fave songs.
