Prep

A noun- A person who goes to a prep school.

A girl that wears knee high socks, sweaters, plaid skirts and buckled shoes. Not to be confused with someone that wears short shorts, brand name t-shirts(or tank-tops), and wears gallons of make-up. This would actually be called a slut, hooker, whore, or popular girl. If someone goes to your school(and your school isn't a prep school) then they are NOT preps.

"We'll meet back at my place to prep for the hearing." (Max Fairbanks from the movie What's the worst that could happen?)

prep

Preps are from rich families, academically gifted, and destined to make a lot of money just like their parents. It is ridiculous to say that they are 'ditzes' and 'sluts'. You would not make it into a prep school if you were either of these things. And preps do not wear American Eagle. They shop at Neiman Marcus. Also, it's not like preps want to be anything else. Whenever somebody comes to a prep school dressed ghetto/goth/hooker, they are either immediately ostracized and made fun of, or more commonly they prep it up too. ;) Also, it is ridiculous for people who pierce holes through their lips and noses just to fit in, to call US posers.

Come to La Jolla Country Day, where we don't care that a bunch of goths wearing dog collars and chains, in remedial 4th grade math, make fun of us! Prep and proud.

prep

A Young student in high [school] or [college] who: 1. Performs well academically 2. Plays sports such as Crew, Tennis, Golf, or Lacrosse 3. Comes from an established "Old [money]" background 4. Is favoured by their [school], church, and other local establishments 5. Is good looking 6. Went to/ goes to preparatory [school] Of course, a prep need not have ALL these qualities but many do. A common misconception about preps is that they consist only of the Patrician New England "Old stock" establishment. While this is generally true to a large extent this is not to exclude the types of preps who come from the Southern and Southwestern regions of the US (who more closely resemble the "popular" [definition] of preps but we'll get into that in a minute). Students who fit the [definition] of "[preppy]" can be found in any part of the world, including the upper circles of Europe, and Latin [America]. Preps have historically been White Anglo-Saxon Protestant, however, this criteria has somewhat changed in recent decades of racial/ethnic integration. Preps represent all sides of the political spectrum, the more liberal ones being found in Connecticut or Massachusetts, or the more conservative ones being found in Georgia or [Texas]. Preps vary in their attitude towards others and range from being completely condescening to being all inclusive. The majority of preps are fairly indifferent to those outside of their own type, usually not out of snobbery, but out of their tendency to be more private as individuals. Perhaps the biggest debate involving preps today is the definition of "prephood". The New England preps often state the the more common definition of prep defined by [people] who wear Hollister, [Abercrombie] & Fitch, etc. is a false construction, whereas the "true prep" actually wears brands like J Crew, LL Bean, Eddie Bauer, and Ralph [Lauren]. Whlie a true prep is more inclined to match the latter definition, there is not a rigid line between types and many preps actually wear a mixture of the two styles, wearing the established brands for [school] or church and the newer brands in casual settings. Of course, it is important to note that true prephood is NEVER defined by clothes alone. Finally, preps are often seen as conformists, but in reality, this perception comes from their emphasis on constructing highly esteemed careers and willingness to accept the concept of the "establishment" as an inevitability. Thus many preps aspire to go into business, medicine or politics later in life.

I pretty much [match] the [definition] of a prep and am pretty [proud] of it. =)

This definition is too long for this mug.
