Recession Lexicon: Recession Roadkill
“Recession roadkill” refers to the laid-off, the unemployed, and those generally getting run over by the merciless wheels of the economy. The term has been popping up lately on the blogosphere (Jim Cramer’s blog on TheStreet.com; Miss Pink Slip ).
Ex: Being recession roadkill has allowed me to indulge my daytime soap fetish.

The only problem with being “recession roadkill” and having a daytime soap fetish is that the recession is likely to accelerate the disappearance of more and more daytime soaps. (Apparently the cast and crew of GUIDING LIGHT were notified today that the show is being cancelled as of September.) On the other hand, those now called “recession roadkill” who live in New York or Los Angeles will have a better chance of meeting their favorite soap stars on the unemployment line.
