UMC
Upper Middle Class - the very top layer of the middle class.
People who think nothing of spending $4.50 on a coffee, think getting change from $10 for a sandwich/loaf of sourdough or $20 from a cocktail is a great deal, are prone to saying "Oh, I looooove foreign films", are overeducated yet underskilled, can't cook anything except toast because they eat out three times a day, adore Steve Jobs, say words like "problematic" when they really mean "bad", describe the inhabitants of their preferred Developing World holiday destination as "such a beautiful people", whose parents pay their rent and who rarely "check" their own "privilege", complain of being "soooo busy" while they are freelancing at a cafe, are generally kidults, etc etc etc.
