A person with multiple personalities; a professional/respectable persona as well as a wild and extreme persona (often related to substances and the opposite sex). This person has mastered the ability to know when and where to display each persona. With some people they are respectable and professional, with others they are hard-partying and raucous.
Respectable-degenerates tend to show both personalities, only to other respectable-degenerates.

She is so smooth that many people think she is a prim and proper lady. Her friends see her on nights out and on vacation when she gets properly crazy. We know she is a complete respectable-degenerate.
My boss and I were out at the bars and clubs last night. He was doing all kinds of drugs and trying to hook up. Today we are both in the office looking fresh. Everyone in the office thinks he is totally professional, only the two of us know what a respectable-degenerate he is.

When you have to decide between sitting multiple cars usually each having 1-2 people already, meaning that you are showing "more" respect to the car that you wish to sit in. Usually solved simply but can be thought about rather seriously.
Mike and Tony were both going to Caribou Coffee in their cars with no passengers, they were leaving from my place, so I would sit with Mike and say see ya there Tony to balance the Passenger Respect, possibly giving disrespect.

Get the Respect mods daymug. This is one definition that doesn't speak for everybody, but is a universal common sense definition. Knowing that everybody is not the same, doesn't think the same, doesn't do things the same way without trying to convert the other person to your way of doing things is respect. Once you try and convert other people to your way of doing things, you don't respect them. This applies to people who wear masks, it also applies to people who dont wear masks, and try to run off the people who do wear masks. It also applies to race and statues. Thinking someone should respect your race and your martin luther king statues while trying to get Confederate statues removed is not true respect. Expecting someone to compromise before you can respect them is not respect, it's the opposite. Compromise or expecting others to compromise is also not a sign of growing up.
Elementary school kids learn how to call people sir, ma'am, mr., and mrs., and doing so is not a sign or a symbol of true respect for somebody else, which is why false respect or pretending to respect someone is not better than no respect or disrespect, and is sometimes the exact same thing.
