When a person with a full-time professional career (i.e. doctor, engineer, lawyer) spends all their extra money and free time on high end ski gear and ski trips. Professional ski bums live for winter and will spend any amount of money and PTO to indulge their powder hound desires. Within reason. Professional ski bums are differentiated from regular ski bums by their desires to also own a home, have a girlfriend, a nice car, a career, a retirement plan, and to smell nice.
Professional Ski Bum 1: I have saved up 20 days of PTO! We should take a killer trip to Chamonix this season!
Professional Ski Bum 2: I just bought a pair of skis during the DPS Dreamtime that would make shredding Chamonix sick!
Co-worker: So what are you doing this weekend?
Professional Ski Bum: I'm going skiing.
Co-worker: Skiing? But it's the middle of August!? It hasn't snowed for months, and it won't snow for a few weeks more!
Professional Ski Bum: Uhh, it's winter in Patagonia, and Bariloche is supposed to get close to 2 feet! FYI, I won't be in the office on Monday. Or Tuesday. And possibly Wednesday.

Someone who recognizes that the current Neo-Conservative trend of the use of force for political and economic gain denigrates the sacrifices made by those who died in legitimate conflicts where the freedoms of the US were actually threatened by an outside entity. Many so called 'Liberals A.K.A Antiwar protesters' are former soldiers who have seen the evils perpetrated by the use of the military and the devastation delivered upon innocent populations by the destruciton of their infrastructures in campaigns of 'shock and awe'ordered by draft dodging pieces of crap sitting in comfortable offices in Washington.
People who are considered by the ignorant 51% of Americans who voted for Bush to be 'Liberals A.K.A Antiwar protesters' are an invaluable voice of equality, tolerance, and peace in an overly bellicose society of obese morons who have lost sight of what America should be and bought into the mindless rhetoric of George W. Bush.
I am a Liberal A.K.A Antiwar protester because I understand the issues and am enraged at the license the American people have given to the Military Industrial Complex to wage wars at will.

Get the professional mug.1) someone who expresses dissent about a war, or the way the war is being fought, or the false pretenses used to justify the war, or anything about that war they dont like or are against.
in the case of Iraq, this would include people all over the world who did not like Saddam Hussein, but disagree with the principle of preemptive war. establishing the principle of preemptive war abandons international law- meaning any country can invade and attack any other country they claim is a 'gathering threat' -not even an 'imminent threat' according to their intelligence agencies.
preemptive war is the same logic that terrorists the world over use to justify their actions.
