secessionist

A person who isn't happy with the established order and is obsessed with revisiting a time when they imagine life was better. Often relating to Jacobean times when Scots believed the Stuarts promised nirvana and a utopian ideal. Currently the Stuarts have been replaced by Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP.
The secessionists reckon anyone who disputes their cause is a mere quisling, a misguided twat.

Recessionista

A person who evokes being affected by the recession because it's the 'in' thing to do, especially if they have no real need to. They may even pay more for the privilege of having just the right down-market accessories or habits. (Reference the evolution of the hipster.)
We're going to Mel's Diner tonight. The decor's a little shabby, you know with the recession and all, but they have the most fabulous oysters served in replica sardine tins.

Recessionista

A person who is able to stick to a tight budget while still managing to dress stylishly.
She's superstylish, always able to buy a round of drinks and still seems to be wearing a new outfit every time you see her. She's a recessionista, that New York marvel who's a magnet for a good deal. And in this economy, she's got a lot to teach us.

Sessionist

A session musician who doesn’t have time to say “session musician.”
Spence Peppard plays guitar in the studio, but since “session musician” takes entirely too long to say, he fancies himself a “sessionist.” What a dope.
