Refers to the way we tend to look at other peopleâs lives and other things that we don't have in general through rose colored glasses.
Comes from the idea of looking at a neighbours lawn and seeing it as better looking, healthier and overall greener then your own when in reality youâre just ignoring anything negative about it and downplaying everything positive about your own.
Friend#1: Youâre so lucky, you went to a great college, have money and youâre so smart and will probably accomplish more by the time youâre 30 then I will in my entire life.
Friend#2: Are you serious? Iâve always envied you. People expect so much out of me. Iâve never been able to have a life because of studying and other schoolwork. If I get less then an A, people freak out like I got an F. I may accomplish that much, but with all the pressure on me Iâll probably be insane by the time Iâm 35. In so many ways, I wish I could just be a regular guy with normal expectations and a normal life.
Friend#1: Wow, I honestly never looked at it that way. I guess it's true that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

A lovley folder in various versions of Windows and another prime example of Disobedient Computer Syndrome.
Will appear in your 'My Documents' folder whenever you open display control panel or open programs like Photoshop etc.
No matter now many times you delete it, it will re-appear.
Another example of how Windows wants everyone to do things its way and cannot understand that maybe just maybe people want to store their images in another folder.
My Pictures always appears in My Documents wether you want it to or not. You have no choice; resistance is futile.

Pretty much what your average College or University student must learn to subside on because rent and education costs leave them basically in poverty.
What lots of teachers are known to say: Believe me guys; I was a poor student. I remember living on Kraft Dinner for weeks to afford my books.

That feeling you get when you see, experience, read or hear something that causes you to die a little inside and/or lose more of what little innocense you have left.
Some people accuse others of soul rape when said others disagree with something they're produced. The idea being that they're expressing a part of themsevles and in saying that part of wrong, the others are harming them on a deep inner spirtual type of level.
I suffered a serious case of soul rape when I accidently stumbled upon porn of classic 80's cartoons.

Usually occurs sometime in your twenties, a few years out of school and still feel as though you're waiting for you're life to begin.
For most people it will be arround twenty five years of age (give or take a year or two) as this tends to be when you're way of thinking is starting to change beyond that of a high school or college student. Most people realise they've reached this age if they talk to teens online and realise their way of thinking/talking/interacting etc is considerably diffrent and/or they're starting to refer to teens as 'kids'.
It's an age where a lot people start developing a more realistic outlook in life and start feeling that if they haven't accomplished certain things in life they thought they would by then that they may never (Even though this isn't true and they still have a long time to attain their goals and dreams).
This tends to be the age where regets about decitions made in High School, College etc start becomming more appart. The classes one didn't take, or could have tried harder in, the teams one didn't try out for, and wished they had and so forth can sometimes cause a lot of regret and even resentment of those that are doing things one wishes they'd done.
Some people will respond to a quarter life crisis by rushing into various landmark type goals in life (ie, getting married, moving out from your parents house, getting your first house, getting your first real job, having kids).
This could be because their friends have accomplished one or more of these things and they're worried their falling behind them.
It may also be because they're afraid that if they don't accomplish these things by the time their 28 or so, they may never.
Others respond to it by growing depressed and blamming others for their pervieved failures in life.
People tend to move beyond this life crisis when they realise that, a lot of people feel the same way and/or are in the exact same position, so they have plently of company (misery loves company) and/or start to realise that perhaps some of their hopes and dreams were a tad bit unrealistic and that they're just getting a reality check. Once one realises that life hasen't neccessarily let them down and that their hopes and dreams were just that, hopes and dreams, but the reality has simply granted them a more down to Earth/realistic life, they'll accept it and hopefully be happy for what they have and stop lamenting over what they never could realistically have achieved in life.
Person1: What's wrong man?
Person2: Sorry, I'm just kinda depressed. I'm 26 years old yet I feel like I should have been way more then I am by now.
Person1: I hear ya man, welcome to your quarter life crisis.
