An Urbanist is a former inner city inhabitant who aspires to live the life of suburbia, yet retaining many of his or her original customs, manners and beliefs much to the chagrin of their established neighbors. The clues that you are living near an Urbanist would be: the presence of used condoms in the parking lot; the placing of the telephone in the open kitchen window so that all neighbors hear it; screaming and yelling at multiple sex partners (on different days, of course). Also, a variant of the Urbanist is the far worst Urbanista, who will sign an apartment lease for 1 or 2
people, but we really know that their
new dwelling is nothing more than a way station for their 20 and more
friends, extended family and other
terrorist cell members. You know an Urbanista is nearby when: roaches and other vermin suddenly appear; sandals are piled up
outside their door; no furniture, but plenty of floor mats inside; the building starts to
stink of food or human waste (what's the difference here, eh?).
Urbanist: That chicken
head in apartment
11 is a real urbanist, never
cleaning up the condoms in the parking lot.
Urbanista: Damn, tripped over those damn urbanista sandals again.
