Comes from aviation. When a plane lands at an airport, the tower usually gives the pilot directions to his gate. If the pilot can't remember the directions he can request a progressive taxi, where the tower guides the pilot to his gate (turn left... go straight 200 yards... turn right). This is a nuisance to the tower because it requires that someone usually focused on difficult job of directing traffic in the sky to divert their attention to something stupid like giving simple directions on the ground.

Get the Secular Progressive mug.University educated younger working professionals often living in newer, trendy, upscale type of neighborhoods. Most believe their higher education puts them a good cut above most poor in society and will lead them to a peaceful, quality, happy successful existence in life. Some men living this type of lifestyle can often been seen riding bicycles and often enough put an 'S' on the back of their car windshields at least in Albuquerque, NM or put something about 'Superman' on their license plate to boost their ego or accomplishments. These types of people are the new super hero's in society at least to their own type. Contrary to what most believe they are NOT liberals but more conservatives. They try to 'defy all stereotypes' so the critics can't possibly classify them into any negative based category of which has worked well. It is a trendy respectable thing for them to advocate positive change for humanity or environment but they often look after their own interests in practical reality.
