Favela Chic

What is Favela Chic? Favela Chic is when you have lost everything material,
everything you built and everything you had, but you’re still wired to the gills! And really big on Facebook. That’s Favela Chic. You lost everything, you have no money, you have no career, you have no health insurance, you’re not even sure where you live, you don’t have children, and you have no steady relationship or any set of dependable friends. And it’s hot. It’s a really cool place to be. --Bruce Sterling via FarmVille: a Gothic fantasia
