I don't like to think of them as slacker type characters, but I suppose that's the most common way to look at it.
I feel these characters have found the everyday 9 to 5 lifestyle undesirable. Ron Livingston's character, for example, even found work he could enjoy. But the bottom line I suppose is that they don't care for the mundane day-in day-out same ol' same ol'. Some see them as slackers, but it just shows me there isn't just one way to live a happy life.
