Tight Artist
a turn of phrase coined by the tight arts appreciation society used to describe a person who is a veritable expert in the art of frugality.
a play on words, it acts to quash the stigma attached to a person who would normally be referred to in a vulgar manner as a tight -rs-. the word -rs- in this instance, is changed to arts – a phonetical similarity yet with an intentionally stark reference in meaning. unlike the personal traits of a tight -rs-, the tight artist’s sparing and economical ways are celebrated and revered. it is a hearty attempt to upturn the negative connotations attached to those who are thrifty.
through this process of destigmatisation, a tight artist, by definition, becomes a person who saves money in creative ways. this is a rather more pleasing and palatable definition in comparison to that of the vulgarly named tight -rs- – someone disliked for being tight, stingy or miserly with their money.
a tight artist is not stingy. just savvy. because saving money is an artform.
“wow, greg! that’s a great savings idea. you are a true tight artist! thanks.”
how did you afford that? man – you’re obviously a tight artist. i wish i could be smarter with my money.
