...Preps..?, ><" Options

[shortiiex]

yeah i agree with everyone else of the definition...
if you think preps are good then it's good but if you don't want to be one then it's bad

[xbr0kensmil3]

to me a prep is someone who's conceited and says the word like after every word.

[thait3n]

I guess the word prep, in generalization is. Rich, Snooby, Wears Uber Expenisve Clothes, Popular, Wild, Funny, Well Liked, Gets High? (at least my school is), Wealthy...

Meh, I dont have a problem with em. They are alright, but yah they can be total assholes to certain kids

[YourSuperior]

LABELS ARE BAD! DONT LABEL PPL!

[sandy_lumpy_shor...]

it depends on the way you look at life.

[Jinjjasanaee]

I think it's a good thing. It can indicate that you're a cultured person.

[rememberme]

Prep. Hmm. Some consider that a person being conceded, stuck up, a material person.

Fcuk them kinda people. =) have a nice day

[*instantmusic*]

if anyone asked what prep was the short for, whoever was asked would be bewildered. .: preparatory :.

preparatory: Relating to or engaged in [study or training] that serves as [prep]aration for [advanced education].

so next time a "prep" calls someone a "nerd"... say this:

this motha f*cka is lost!
[and put your hands over your head like your fainting]

[miss barnes]

preps..well at my school is usually determined by the way a person acts and dresses.

(to me) they're usually white, female, hyper acting and abercrombie/ae/hollister dressed

[mactjhs]

u no wut, I just thought of something...a prep mite be the ppl who label people as preps....so actually the stoners, goths, etc. are the real preps!! haha thats kinda mind blowing isnt it? but ive always kinda thought they were WAY more stuck up than the, persay, "preps" who were nice clothes, etc. but yea, I juss try and be normal! guess i usually get the label as prep! haha oo well! im also a band nerd so haha!! :-D

[sportschick1]

I dont know what these ppl are talkin about. You really cant classify anybody as a prep. ITs a person who has a lot of friends and you dont have to dress nice to be a prep i dress from hosslister and american eagle and im about as redneck you can get. Its mainly ppl who think there better than everyone else and stick there nose up to "small" ppl. You dont have to dress ncie or be popular at that to be a prep and just cause your popluar your a prep. You just have a lot of friends. Heck im popular.

[ItzOnlySydney]

eehh so hard to define i guess most popular girls are considered preps...not that i think the girls at our school are preps....

[ThePrincessofTKD]

being a prep isn`t a bad thing as long as you`re not the bitchy prep.

[Looow]

Taken from UrbanD

Woah. Harsh

[satisfied-tom]

preps at our school is considdered at bad thing. we think of preps as rude, ignoying, bitchy, etc..

at the last dance i was at they tryed to lift up my friends shirt.

[sammi rules you]

idk --- i guess there's no actual "definition" of a prep. when i think of preps, i think of someone that is over-the-top conceited, maybe wealthy [and rubs it in], acts a certain way because it's "trendy", and doesn't accept people [ex: nerds, geeks, goths, punks] because they are different.

that would be a snob..
not all preps are snobs..

i'm preppy :angry:

[tooeffingcrazy]

generally posers go to lots of parties wear such expensive clothes as Hollister, American Eagle, Abercrombie and Fitch, Express, Armani Exchange

I guess im a "prep"

[musicjunkie]

Hmmmm well, in my opinion prep is a very bad thing to be called. Where i come from its like the worst insult you can say to anyone. Well a prep is like someone who like is rich, popular, has tons of friends, looks down on people who have less than them, take everything for granted. Thanks to the media though, football players and cheerleaders are usually classified as preps if they ever look down on someone. Well i doubt thats the exact definition but thats what i have been told.

You people are talking about a select group of bitchy people that are uncultured and have their parents pay for everything and will probably never have to work a day in their lives. They just don't understand why most of America has to actually work for a living. But most of you are stereotyping most of the nation. They include people that pride themselves in dressing clean cut and being fashionable. And that UrbanDictionary.com definition is way off target. Preps are people that may shop at those stores, but most don't care how much their clothes cost. They care about looking good, even if that implies either spending $175 or $5 on a bag from Coach or Wal-Mart (just so you know, I like Wal-Mart!)

[aznxdreamer]

shops at abercrombie, hollister all the time.
too happy all the time
has too many friends
talks with an amazingly high voice
wears too much pink
matches too well
seems to always have an aberrombie bag with them...?

personally...im a walmart/ross girl.

[zbrittanyz]

How can you have too many friends? And what's wrong with being happy?

[angel-roh]

Prep is not a bad thing... i mean i dress all preppy... i dont call that bad... i mean i dont get mad if people calls me im preppy... but as long as you dont stereotype them from the wrong person, yeah they'll get mad.

[innovation]

there are two definitions of "prep:" the original definition and the teeny-bopper, commercialism-dominated, new-fangled definition. i cite urbandictionary:

preppy

definition one: One who is stylish and spends a lot of money on their clothing. Typically dressed in Ralph Lauren Polo, Lacoste, and Lilly Pulitzer. A true prep goes to a prep school, be it a day school or a boarding school. Most of these schools are located on the East Coast. They are not religiously affiliated. There is no such thing as a true public school prep. Preppies are subtly flashy, and tend to purchase things for comfort and style. Silver jewelry is particularly common, as are pearls. Flip-flops and ribbon belts are must-have accessories, as well as real (or sometimes fake) pearl earrings. Preppies take good care of their nails, but do not get acrylic fakes. Many get their eyebrows waxed. Preppies strive always to appear to spend less time than they do on their appearance, and do not brag or draw attention to their achievements openly. Preppy clothes never truly go out of style, but are frequently replaced. Preppies love their khakis, especially males. They will pay three times as much for a polo player, alligator, or palm tree on their shirts. Common vacations include, but are not limited too: Massachusetts coast, skiing out west (it is more expensive), and Caribbean island vacations during the winter (also very expensive). Most preps have, in their life, skied, and played lacrosse, tennis, and golf. Preppiness is found in its truest form after several generations of wealth in the family. First-generation preps tend to be flashy. True Preparatory (Prep) schools have near 100 years of “experience in educating young men/women” and nearly all of them send 100% of their graduates on to college. Preps tend to proceed to Ivy League, or other “big-name” colleges. Their level of intelligence varies greatly. They may have, but do not need, trust funds.


definition two: well, you know. the wannabe preps. they wear american eagle and abercrombie. they are sometimes referred to as "ditsy" or "slutty," but this description does not always apply. this public school definition of "prep" is often defined by one's clothes/makeup/general outward appearance, while the original definition refers to a general lifestyle.

[s0pnayish]

I get called a social at school. Social=mexican preps. The thing is I'm not mexican. Not even close. I found it annoying because I don't like being labeled.
