URBANISMIC 

URBANISMIC, from someone who is interested in elements of URBAN life, but, not as committed or inspired as some of the URBAN CREATERS who produce new words.

Urbanastinating

Addictively wasting hours on Urban Dictionary when you have very important, urgent work to do, even though the mental hiatus could result in suspension, contract termination, social expulsion or in some cases death.

(verb) Urbanastinate.
Ryan: "Check out this new word I found on Urban Dictionary last night"
Andrew: "No ways man. Last time I was caught Urbanastinating in my cubicle I was given a final warning"
Ryan: "Dude, thats why I always urbanastinate in the privacy of my own room"

New Urbanism 

New urbanist villages contain shopping centers and community centers. Many people may work in the city, but there are job opportunites within the village. Also, not all new urbanism developemnents are built in the suburbs, many redevelopment projects are built in the downtown section of cities as well.
