Definition: pyuppie (‘puppy’) n.: an acronym for a ‘post-yuppie’, a pyuppie is a young, educated, disenchanted urban professional who, in lieu of taking a reactionary stance against materialism and pop-culture to cope with feelings of disillusion with the ‘white-collar sweatshop’, adopts a playful acceptance of traditional yuppie values to blend cultural lines through postmodern channels (such as parody and pastiche). Whereas yuppies define themselves through the very social order and materialism they appropriate, pyuppies define themselves more so through their own particular surface arrangement of the symbols provided by yuppie-esque materialism and culture without taking deeper meaning from them. However, unlike various reactionary juxtapositions to yuppie mores (e.g. punk, hipster, green movement, i.e. Chuck Palahniuk’s 1996 novel ‘Fight Club’), pyuppies welcome and convert yuppie symbolism, creating a transgressive existence that is neither overtly high nor low society.

Get the stabbin' puppies mug.The Soccer Puppies is a nickname for the Fort William Football club in Scotland, based out of Fort William in Lochaber, Scotland, as well as their ultras.
The name derives from their performance in the 2017-2018 season, when they finished with -7 points. A consequence of an SPFL penalty when Fort William FC fielded an ineligible player for 3 games (losing 3 points per game). That ineligible player was in fact a golden retriever, who was given a custom jersey, and added to the roster under the pseudonym, Buddaigh MacDug.
From his tenacious performance, and the subsequent shame of having the worst single season record of any football team - ever - the team was given the moniker "The Soccer Puppies" by the Scottish Football community.
