1. A Hemingway hero.
2. A University of Chicago undergraduate student during midterms/finals who drinks excessive amounts to dull the pain of academic rape.
3. Any University of Chicago student pondering the job market and realizing that she or he must remain in academia.
After my Stellar Astronomy and Astrophysics midterm, I decided that for the rest of my undergraduate career I would be a wino who only attends classes in the humanities.

A girl addicted to free wine. While intoxicated a wino will often spend their free time roaming aimlessly around the French country side and hooking up with guys in sleezy Paris hotel rooms. A wino can be identified by wearing a money belt.
Kathryn, are you such a wino because the wine is free or do you actually like the taste?

Women In Name Only

Men who put on women's clothing and perhaps surgically alter their bodies in order to persuade themselves and others that they might somehow be female.
What a triumph for equality that a WINO has won the gold in the 100m dash !!

Refers to Amy Whinehouse as a crack whore. Like when she is doing something incredibly stupid like walking down the streets naked, cracked out, and screaming for help, or getting caught on video smoking crack.
Wino lost another ten pounds today. When is she going to get off the crack?
