Yuppster 

(noun): A genre of stereotype that is usually a young suburban white male. A devolution of a yuppie and a hipster. Can be characterized by the wearing of their sisters pants, v-neck shirts, 40 year-old lesbian haircut and ironic eyewear. Listens to music too cool for you on University independent radio. Babbles about the environment and being a vegan, as if anybody gives a shit. WARNING: Adhering to the yuppster ways is hazardous to your health . Loss of testosterone due to tight pants and frequent neck problems from constantly jerking your head back to get your bangs out of your face.

Chase: Ooohh yeah, total yuppster.
Clint: Man, id love to kick that guy in the nuts!

Yuppster 

A Yuppie who, due to the post-2015 mainstream popularity and visibility of subversive culture through the internet (especially social media platforms), claims ridiculously to be a Hipster; while still embodying the conservative, self-seeking, mainstream, group-think, socially exploitative, advertisement-culture-admonishing, misogynist, patriarchally-conformed perception of suburbanite middle America.

Yuppie + Hipster = Yuppster

A captain of gentrification and social appropriation.
Suburbanite Becky/Bro: "I know all about Capitol Hill (Seattle), I've been here three years. Can't you see my privilege tattoos? This culture is about me now, or at the very least, policed by me."

Old-School Queer: "Wow, this yuppster embodies all the forces of ignorance, oppression and appropriation; and has just described themselves as a member of the timeline group that caused the gentrification and mass eviction of Capitol Hill. Where's my homemade guillotine?"

A professional working hipster. Yupsters are generally in their middle 30's to very early 40's. At the leading edge of Generation X, yupsters came of age during the first wave of indie rock and hip hop. Informed by their teenage-twentysomething, DIY, cheap and chic style, yupsters have incorported their edgier pasts into a new form of an extended youth culture of hip clothes, avante rock, indie hop and creative class professions. Yupsters have successfully opened sleek boutique hotels, cool bodegas, retro diner style restaurants, vintage clothing stores, kitschy bric-a-brac retail spaces, tongue-in-cheek bars and lounges, haute hair salons, trendy record stores and labels, hip coffee bars and bakeries, plush pet shops and ironic graphic and design firms. Other yupsters are employed by corporations that are drawn to the creative talents of a casually styled, slightly aged, still youngish, urban workforce. Yupsters live everywhere, but in the United States, they tend to gravitate to the cities of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Minneapolis, Austin, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland and Seattle. Yupsters who have children fashion them to look stylish and trendy (e.g., skater, mod, late 1970's). Yupsters who have pets adorn them with trendy collars and accesories (e.g., modernist collars and couture pet bags). Yupsters who drive, own vehicles that range from the modern and savvy Volkswagen Passat, Mini Cooper or Vespa to the well kept, vintage Volvo or Vespa. Yupsters define their style by combining the high and low of the vintage and modern. A yupster would deny being a yupster for fear of questioning originality, admitting to ridiculous hair and aging into middle age.
I realized I was a yupster when my friends and I opened up a hip bodega in an old storefront. We sell PBR alongside Veuve Clicquot, imported cigarettes, organic produce, free range meat and snacks from Mexico, Germany and Japan. We hired a DJ to play nostalgia music from the 1950's on Wednesday afternoons and another to play no wave and hip hop on Friday evenings. Our delicatessen is open late and features macaroni and chesse, Indonesian street food, Southern-fried chicken and burritos. Our bodega has a Myspace.com account.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
