A term which might have a lot of negative connotations attached to it, but really only means what it stands for - Young Urban Professional. In other words, it's anyone who is over twenty and under forty, lives in an urban environment and has a good career. This does most likely mean that they are fairly affluent, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they're self-centered, obsessed with showing off, pissy if they don't start off every single day of their lives with a latte from Starbucks, or anything else like that.
I plan to become a yuppie once I'm out of grad school, but that one little label doesn't make me a bad person.

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.

A yuppie is any man or woman who believes they are entitled to high end paying jobs with little or no experience. This is the “everyone gets a trophy generation”, which was created by the “latch key kid generation.” Parents of yuppies, while trying to eat their emotions of loneliness, successfully over compensation their children’s accomplishments and discounting their failures. Mainly because their mommy and daddy was smoking crack in the parking lot of a WHAM concert in the 80’s,while they sat on the living room floor alone eating Trix in a cup while watching the Smurfs.
Although Yuppies appear to have the latest in “trendy retro clothes”, in reality, they dress this way because they have no job and ransacked their grandma’s attic, grabbing what moth eating clothes they could. Then return to their unfurnished apartment, to which they will refer to as a “studio” that has a small eco footprint, which supports a generation that doesn’t need “physical things.” Another physical trait of the yuppie, is the more recent Pompadour Fade, or otherwise known as the grease comb over. Although trendy, it is actually by design, a health measure. By smearing grease in their hair, pulling to one side and shaving the side of their head, this allows for ease when checking for mites or lice, due to the fact that they are unable to have running water in their “studio”. This “Fad” will allow the perfect disguise to hide their true balding within the next 5-10 years.

Ben: Tom, you should minimize your green foot print and down size your home that you worked so hard for.
Tom: Ben, eat shit yuppie, get a job, wash your hair and tell your parents to get counseling.
