Holden Morrisey Caulfield 

Holden Morrisey Caulfield, appears in J.D. Salinger's Slight Rebellion off Madison, published in the December 22, 1946 issue of The New Yorker. This was the basis for several chapters in the book, The Catcher in the Rye where Holden has a date with Sally Hayes.
Holden Morrisey Caulfield usually wore his chesterfield and a hat with a cutting edge at the “V” in the crown.

Holden Caulfield 

The most real literary character I've read from the novel The Catcher in the Rye. JD Salinger, the author of Catcher himself, often referred to Holden as a real person, saying things like, "No, Holden wouldn't like that."

Depressed throughout the novel, he takes jabs at the injustices around him, calling many people and things "phony," and while usually true, stating this only made him more depressed.

People he liked included his dead brother Allie, his kid sister Phoebe, and Mr. Antolini, a teacher at a former school of his who cleaned up the dead body of Kevin Castle after he killed himself by jumping from a dorm window.
Some quotes of Holden Caulfield:
"Goddam money. It always ends up making you blue as hell."

"High school's full of phonies, and all you do is study so that you can learn enough to be smart enough to be able to buy a goddam Cadillac some day, and you have to keep making believe you give a damn if the football team loses, and all you do is talk about girls and liquor and sex all day, and everybody sticks together in these dirty little goddam cliques."

"Sex is something I just don't understand. I swear to God I don't."

Holden Caulfield 

to 'pull a Holden Caulfield' is to go on a trip with no real aim in mind; a day trip (or night trip) that is completely reliant on one's stream of consciousness; based on Holden Caulfield's random journey through New York from J. D. Salinger's novel, "The Catcher in the Rye."
We had no idea what we wanted to do or where we wanted to go, so we pulled a Holden Caulfield and rambled around for a while.

caffiend 

(CALF-feend)

A hybrid between the two words Caffeine and Fiend (as in crack fiend). Your typical Caffiend is characterized by one or more of these behaviors.

1. They will get extremely irritable if denied their daily dose of coffee, tea, soda, or any other products that contain caffeine.

2. In addition to the above behavior, some caffiends may find themselves spending large amounts of their income on all manner of energy drinks, no doz, and other products with higher concentrations of their favorite drug, in an attempt to find more energy and vigor, as their tolerance for caffeinated beverages has by this time almost certainly rendered all but the most powerful sources useless in their never-ending thirst for the next best pick me up.

3. Going without sleep and replacing it with caffeine is probably the most common sign that you or someone you know is or is becoming a caffiend.

Office employee A : " Your telling me"
