A derogatory term used to describe young, rich, and normally stuck-up people.
Yuppies (or: YUPS) are in the age group of 22-32, live in large, expensive subdivisions, and live with general technology and wealth. Yuppies commonly drive foreign luxury cars as well as small SUVs, such as a Honda CR-V, Toyota Rav-4, or Jeep Liberty. Yuppies are often seen at nature centers, walking trails, or beach-side campgrounds. Yuppies often pay $300,000 for houses with an extremely small yard and no foliage.
Yuppies get along easily with other yuppies. However, anyone "below" them on the social chain they will not talk to.
Yuppies may be male or female, however, when a female yuppie becomes pregnant and has a child, she then becomes a soccer mom.
