Slacker
意味: A person who avoids work or effort — someone who does the bare minimum.
'Slacker' became a defining term for Gen X in the 1990s, championed by the film 'Slacker' (1990) and grunge culture. While originally negative, it took on a countercultural cool during the '90s — the idea that not caring was a valid life philosophy. Today it's used more straightforwardly to describe someone who is lazy or unmotivated.
