recession video

a wave of music videos by mainstream artists with uncharacteristically low budgets, giving a somewhat cheapened feel to the video. signs include single venues, maybe one or two cars, a lack of jewelry (excluding jewelry owned by the artist beforehand), animation, and a cheaper grade of video vixen.

Thing 1: you seen that Every Girl video? that shit was TOO nice!

Thing 2: man that was a fuckin recession video. it was one car in a warehouse with fuckin cartoons and like 50 off-the-corner hoes. shit was wack.

Recession whore

A person who uses the recession as an excuse to free load off others without shame or feeling of resentment. This is used to prevent a person from using their own money and spending or using other people's money. It's pretty much like selling yourself (like your time, looks, etc.) for free stuff in order to survive the recession.

That girl is such a recession whore, she only uses him when she wants to free drinks.

recession

Recession is the decline in a country's gross domestic product (GDP), or negative real economic growth, for two or more successive quarters of a year. The term recession, however, has been utilized in recent decades by politicians to distort the economic outlook and reframe in more positive terms rather than have to address the looming economic depression.

Ralph: Dude, the feds just lowered interest rates and backed a takeover of a large investment bank after acknowledging that we might be in a recession.

Ted: This recession's been going on since Bush took over. How long until we call it an economic depression?
