whatever you want it to mean. A generation X that thinks outside of the box or has abandoned many if not all of the norms/precepts of a postwar generation

Postmodern is a term that therefore refers to violations of whatever laws or theories or traditions or established thoughts even before they were created. Postmodern is whatever you want the truths to be. They will always be true to you anyways. So what? Who cares! This is deviance.

A brand new definition entered on this website full of obsequious obscenities, rascism and buffoonery meant to stroke one’s ego until a substantial number of thumbs down replies tears at the very fabric of one’s well being.
Boy, that last Postmodernism post didn’t have a single shit, fuck, piss, dick, cunt or cauliflower in it. I’m gonna rip them a new asshole with a thumbs down!

The feeling that plagues art students when they realize all the work they have ever done is postmodern and not as awesomely original as they first thought. They may find themselves thinking, "How can I do something that's not postmodern?" Which is sadly the most postmodern move they could make because postmodernism is a critique of previous art movements and or cultural phenomena.
girl 1: aw man I just realized the dress I decorated with smiley faces from those plastic bags I collected is sooo postmodern.
girl 2: Yeah analyzing the facial differences of the smiley faces found of a common place consumer product is pretty postmodern I would say
girl 1: what do I do to not be postmodern then?
girl 2: Sadly there is nothing you can do. But on the bright side at least your not a hipster who is oblivious to how postmodern all their unoriginal art is. Don't get into postmodern depression now cheer up!
girl 1: Postmodernism sucks man but I love it at the same time :(

A dance form claiming that any movement is dance, and any person is a dancer, with or without training. As a reaction to the compositional and presentation constraints of modern dance, postmodern dance hails the use of everyday movement as a valid performance art.
The term could also be used as a more sophisticated way of describing "dancing like crazy".

A person in the 21st century who takes progressive moves to help live in better accordance with the natural environment.
A person who cares about the environment AND their personal hygiene.
A person who believes in all the hippie ideals of love, peace, flower power and unity but still takes showers and/or shaves.

Instead of buying a band new shirt that says, "Recycle" she went to the thrift store and bought a shirt that was ACTUALLY recycled. What a postmodern hippie!
