a really really stupid piece of shit play/musical/movie that is obssessed over by drama nerds in every suburban high school in america. i mean honestly, its alright for girls but when i see a guy in his skin-tight black shirt with the word "rent" in spray-painted stencil, i just wanna go up to him and say "before you ask, no. i won't suck your dick, and you can't suck mine". its basically about this group of homosexuals who live together and give eachother AIDS, then they dont want to pay rent on their apartment. So if you like AIDS, gays, and transvestites, see this peice of shit. Otherwise, if you're normal, see wayne's world instead.
"Dude, my girlfriend is in drama so she made me watch rent with her last night. It sucked but she did give me head afterwards, that was the best part"

A mainstream musical posing as revolutionary with excellent melodies and dance and sound, but cliche, hackneyed, ridiculously abstract lyrics, interwoven with a few good songs. A good show, but terribly overrated. A good message, but relayed in a terribly melodramatic way. Interesting characters, but terribly underdeveloped. Glorifies neediness and the misuse of condoms leading to AIDS. Appeals to drama freaks who are often preppies in disguise. The great irony of the year (2006) is seeing girls in their Billabong shirts and Abercrombie and Fitch mini-skirst singing "La Vie Boheme." As a wise man once said, "Rent is worse than AIDS."
Ok, so, I went to American Eagle Outfitters and bought the CUTEST DRESS and I'm gonna borrow my friend's combat boots from Hot Topic so I can sing "Take Me Out Tonight" from Rent, my favorite musical, with a bunch of attention whores.

In middle school, it was Rocky Horror. In high school, it was RENT. RENT is what passes for counterculture these days. A 19th century musical about tuberculosis stripped of its dignity and painted up with AIDS and cheap whore makeup. Every white suburban kid with a DVD player goes absolutely bonkers for this travesty, and such a reaction probably stems from the darkest, deepest part of the brain known as liberal guilt. Of course they don't want to pay their rent. They're too busy buying smack and singing about how tortured they are by their artistic spirits. Give me a break.
RENThead: do you want to watch RENT with me?
me: what?? no, i'm leaving
RENThead: we're on a moving bus
me: PAVEMENT IS MORE APPEALING

A sucky movie based on a play every white teenager I know who lives in the suburbs thinks is spectacular. Apparently breaking a nail helps you to identify with AIDS patients.
Full of ridiculous dialog and okay songs, plus the most ludicrous ending ever created (raising your dead hooker friend from the grave through song)

A pointless movie/musical in which homosexual and HIV/AIDS infected people decide they're not going to pay they're rent. They dance around and sing while they rebel about how they're not going to pay their rent.

If you still live at home or already moved out and are supported by your parents, they can be affectionately reffered to as your "'rents" as an abbrevaition for your pa'rents / those who literally pay your rent.
"No, I'm not going out with Barbara tonight, the 'rents are taking the whole family to dinner in London" or "John: "Can we borrow your family car for the trip down to Bognor Regis?" Me: "I'm not sure, but let me ask my rents and then get back to you ..."
