If the meaning of the 'yuppie' acronym is 'young, urban, professional', is it safe to assume you're the antithesis of one, and hence an old, rural, union-laborer?

(hey, a new acronym - orulie!)

HOLY CR*P!
People can bash hippies here but yuppies are off limits! What's the world coming to! hahaha!

But seriously folks, While I am young, I did grow up rural, I am about to be rural again, and I am certainly not a 'professional'.. very unprofessional I am.. ha ha
Whatever the 'group label' of these people, my point was they're inconsiderate. The fact that they're usually yuppies is just an amusing coincidence.

Just asking a question ma'am. But down here in the So Cal, where trends start and migrate in all directions, we haven't used the term 'yuppie' since the late '80's.

Hey! Be a trend setter in your province and stop now, way ahead of the trend curve!

And by the way, we now use a term called "whizzeldoink" to refer to people we used to call "yuppies"; give it a try at your next concert outing.
