A person who does anything they can to avoid doing work. A person who doesn't do a big project till the last night, and then does it half-assed and turns it in. A person who writes urban dictionary definitions instead of studying for his finals. A person who would rather smoke weed and play video games all day than do anything else.
me,

Imma slacker, never did I have a lot of dough
Imma slacker, smoking pot and watchin' videos
Imma slacker, go whichever way the wind blows
Those just tuning in I'm just letting' ya know
Imma slacker, every time I take a look around
Imma slacker, stuck upon my face is a frown
I don't do enough, I just fool around
Ya'll can go to hell, how does that sound

I was going to write a definition for this word. It's kind of interesting. Fuck it, I'll do it later.

One who prioritizes doing nothing.
Square: Oh my God, this Tuesday was so stressful! After waking up late at 5:27, I rushed to the gym and almost missed my 6:00 Pilates class. After it was over I quickly took a shower, brushed my teeth and shaved. I then realized I had left my Xanax back at my condo. Speeding BACK to my housing unit, I ran and picked up the meds then turned around and headed to off work. Getting to the office by 8:43, grabbed some coffee then headed into the 8:00 sync meeting where we reevaluated the pending transaction with the Taipei plant, discussed the new format for the personnel records and talked about regional integration. I met with a client at 10:45 and then proceeded to work through lunch, stopping to eat a low-carb, transfat free, Vitamin D-enriched salad at my desk at 3:15. I rescheduled the next meeting with my life coach, paid my bills through the end of the month and organized my cubicle. Leaving the office at 7:00, I had dinner by myself at 7:45 and read the paper before getting back to my home at 8:50. I went on the internet to complete the homework for my online MBA program before catching up on The News Hour. How was your Tuesday?

Slacker: Today's Tuesday? Oh, pretty chill I guess. I woke up sometime in the afternoon, ate some Doritos and played video games for about 5 hours, then masturbated to a ton of internet porn. I ordered pizza and watched Netflix until you interrupted me for this hypothetical discussion. Was planning on drinking later on, maybe after I jam out on my guitar or go skating.

A slacker is someone who while being intelligent, doesn't really feel like doing anything. A good example would be someone who gets Bs and As, while doing absolutely nothing other than playing video games on occasion.
Being a typical slacker, Yuri didn't feel like doing his english report. Fuck it. Not doing it would only bring him down 3 points. Besides I'm playing video games.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
