Someone in my office just called me a yuppie. we were talking about voting and she said, thats who the yuppies vote for. and I said I'm not a yuppie and she said you certainly are.
Would you view being a yuppie as a bad thing?
Re: am I a yuppie?
My dad always uses the term yuppie- and he's referring to people with SUVs and nice houses. Starbucks coffee- those types of people.
I don't think you're a yuppie.
But I would love to be a yuppie- in my dad's definition.
I wouldn't describe you as a yuppie.
apparently yes. but I always thought a yuppie with someone with new money that thought they were better than everyone else

In a way that could be true, I guess. I think it's more like a young professional person who is moving up in the world, so to speak, and consequently feels affluent. Yuppies are typically thought of as being very materialistic and very much into how other people perceive them. I think about American Psycho whenever I hear the word.
What did you learn because all I've taken away from this post is confusion.
Before today I have never even heard of the term yuppie before so even though the definitions are a little blurry, I get the main idea....kind of....
