This is a term used in the field of education, the acronym stands for; Not in Education, Employment or Training but young people have started to use it as a term for bums/layabouts with no future.

Another acronym from sociologists... NEET stands for 'Not in Education, Employment or Training'. I'm not sure, yet, whether it has any global significance or derogatory overtones. However, like chav, it seems to be particularly applicable to a social under-class lacking drive, motivation or ambition. I part this is due to poverty and lack of opportunity. But this burgeoning classification will soon become the darling of right-wingers.
Tokyo NEETs have recently been marching.

The North East in the UK has a pronounced abundance of NEETs

An acronym -'Not in Education, Employment or Training'. Todays use usually goes with that the person is still living off their parents income (living ith them is not a requirement, just makes it better). Thus is epically funny.

Dude: "Neet? Pfft hahah! A neet!"

Typically an adult girl, around the ages of 18-25, a NEET (Not In Training, Education, Or Employment) Are usually basement dwellers who have the messiest rooms known to mankind. They typically spend their every waking moment on their computer doing god knows what. Their rooms consist of a bed, with no stand, Simply a mattress, random clothes strewn on the floor, two or more PCs, several guns, tables with random food bowls, cans, and half finished projects on them, and a closet with a tsunami of boxes and random junk.

A NEET avoids the sunlight and outdoors at all costs. The outside world is cruel, and NEETs prefer to stay inside their rooms at all times. Showering is also very rare for a NEET, and as they never go outside, showering is rarely needed. NEETS are known to stink, but stink "good." They also typically love guns.

NEET girls are usually known to be the most based girls on the planet. They are known to have the wildest conspiracy theories you'll ever hear. Typical theories are usually of the skin walker variety, but they also might have others about the government and random rants about their favorite anime. NEET girls are usually very shy, but can come off rude if you fuck with them. NEETs are also known to hate wagecucks, so if you work a 9-5 job, BEWARE! Do not approach NEET girls unless you want your ass roasted off of you. NEETs are also known to make superior food, such as chicken nuggets, French fries, and Mac and cheese.
neet girls are fucking based.

Someone who against all odds has found a way to escape the grind. They aren't owned by a boss, they aren't losing sleep over grades, and they most certainly could be homeless. Also known as a lumpen.

Often used as an insult by salty workaholics to little effect.
"You really livin' that lumpen lifestyle lmao"
"yeah, that's right, I'm a proud NEET you Marx and Engels stanning bitch"

A neet is typically a teen girl or a girl In her 20s , shes obsessed with anime and video games. (people confuse gamer girls and neets often but they are VERY different)

Neets are basically no lifers that have a dumpster dump for a room but have like 3 monster gaming PCs which they spend all their days on. They are usually huge neon genesis evangelion and serial experiments lain fans and are nocturnal.

They are chronically online and some are even extremely famous for art , music , memes or even just posting random shit. They also have a scary obsession with guns (some even have guns)

This information is pretty much accurate since this is coming from a neet although I'm not famous so I'm not even a cool neet💀
Ew your room is so messy you must be what they call a neet
