Are you a yuppy?

[Maverick]

Yuppy = Young Urban Professional for those that don't know.

 

[StinkyMeat]

Yup

 

[notfred]

I'm young, live in an uban area, and I guess my job would count as something that makes me a professional (web developer for the US Gov't)...

Do I count?

[CraigRT]

Once you're married, you get to be a DINK.

And having kids disqualifies you too.

Actually, it doesn't really disqualify you at all....how often have you heard the phrase "that yuppie couple..." ?

I guess my wife and I are technically Yuppies. We're fairly young, live in Atlanta, and are both professionals.....but we certainly don't fit any of the negative aspects of the yuppie mold.

 

[NumbaJuan]

i have a yuppy grill in the backyard, you know one of those gas thingys..i think i'm half there

 

[Booster]

I'm not. Yeah whatever. I think i'm a young urban <insert the word of your choice here>.

 

[bunker]

Yep

LOL

Thanks, made me feel a little better about myself

Only problem is, once the lease is up on the F-150 the wife's gettin' a Volvo...there goes the non-yuppie status.

wouldn't she have to be working also for that to be true??

 

[BatmanNate]

I don't drive a BMW, have a cellphone, or frequent Starbucks so I'm going to have to go with "No."

*sigh* Can't you talk her into something semi-cool like an Outback or the new VW Tourareg?

Ford owns Volvo + Father retired from Ford = big discount on Volvo

Oh, right. Forgot about that. I can get Xplan papers, but I really don't want anything in the Ford family.

 

[chizow]

Blah, screw Bimmer, all my friends have one (or an Explorer)....Audi A4 Cabrio all the way

Btw, I own a single pair of jeans at any given time and wear them like its my God-Given right on weekends, so I guess that makes me a yuppy

[Stifko]

If you go by what the letters stand for, I guess I am a Young Urban Professional. I drive a bucket and live in a dive though. No Yup Frills here.

 

[radioouman]

So, I guess this thread tells me that I'm a DINK.

Married, we both work. We won't be over $100,000 per year though for a while, unless I can get my wife to finish that master's degree!!!! :|

 

[StageLeft]

I suppose so. Yuppies rule.

 

[308nato]

I own cows and get my hands dirty and stuff....so no for me.

 

[Spamela]

let's see: i love Ford trucks & would never own a BMW or a Mercedes.

so, definitely not.
