prep

Prep is a term that generally refers to a certain type of dress, thinking, and way of living. Generally, a preppy (the adjective version of the word) manner of dress includes pastel colors, usually matched in contrasting ways. Pink and Green are common, as are salmon, light blues, very light yellows and pale oranges. These colors are often on polo-shirts (something preps wear a great deal) and bermuda shorts. Khakis are also an integral (if not as often seen) part of a prep wardrobe.
As a style of thought, preps are generally come from a wealthy family and take great pride in this fact. Importance is placed on the company that produces their clothes, the amount of alcohol consumed in a single evening, the wealth of their mate of choice, and their ability to defy convention by wearing their color up or "popped" Many preps are considered "moochers" by both parents and associates as they very rarely work to maintain their lifestyle and instead rely on their parents to provide for them. This is almost universally true of all preps, wealthy men and women who earn their fortune are rarely ever preppy in dress or action.
Preps are regularly arrogant, vapid and shallow. They define their lives by material things and scorn those who do not follow suit. Conversation revolves around the same thing and generally only changes when their is a new party they have been to, or some other foolish and borderline hedonistic act they have participated in. Found in great supply on college campuses, much to the regret of all others.

Preps include the Forbes children, members of several fraternities and those who hold a country club membership not because of their love of golf, but because of their love of holding a country club membership.
