pretend-to-work truck

Pick-up type truck driven by unemployed construction worker seeking to project an air of employment.

'Work-truck?' He hasn't worked in years. More like his wife's 'work truck' or his pretend-to-work truck.

Pretendult

An individual with pretensions of adulthood and independence, who in actuality has their bills and lifestyle needs provided for primarily by their parent's resources. A person who cannot support their lifestyle on their own, but actively overlooks or minimizes the fact that their parents are providing for them, often through a long-distance monetary umbilical.

"I'm totally going to be making a trip out to Mexico soon, I'm gonna be living it large." -Unspoken is the detail that they are being taken by their parents as part of a family vacation.

-Any college student or beyond who has their rent paid by their parents, but ostentatiously complains about how 'tough' their situation is, as though they were the ones handling it.

-An average member of 'Generation Fail', who has been paid through college but failed utterly to be marginally independent, is often a pretendult.

pretendation

my friend made up this word, it means the state of pretending something.

(taken from a real MSN conversation)

Me: Haha, remember when you were in love with Adam Pascal when you were 12? He's like in his 30s.

Her: LOL! Most of that was fun pretendation!

Me: Sure.....
