Pyuppie
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.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
This is for my granddaughter whom I used to call cutie patootie until she found out another meaning for patootie. Then she didn’t like the name so much! This will be a perfect gift for her! She is 16.
Love the cups :) It reminds us of our sweet momma. I thought everyone knew the word "mommicked" but evidently it is an Eastern North Carolina thing...My sisters and I all married Northerner/ Yankees and they had never heard of the word. Thank you for a tender memory.
Cup came in one piece and looks as nice as it does in the picture! Only note is just be mindful of any typos in the description of the definition, they will show up on the cup too! Other than that, no complaints!
This reminds me of the amazing teams i worked in!
great experience, with fast delivery. Thank you!
my grandma loved it!
My grandma is HOOKED
Based mug
This mug makes me happy :) reminds me of so many funny high school memories!
The mug came quickly and we love it!
These mugs are always good. I usually choose the neon green!
The mug is pretty and the writing on it is clear. It is of good quality and it makes me smile.
Well madder nice print. 8 0z cup. I'd prefer a mug but will be ordering 3 more. Just my cuppa tea (or coffee). Americans always make fun of some of the things I say. Recently my brother and I were talking about the Trawna Maple Leafs. I decided to look it up and sure enough there is was Trawna the city I grew up in. Now who has the last laugh.
I ordered pink but got purple, and the text wasn't very clean, but overall, it is a mug.
It was a gift for my sister, who wrote it. She loved it and so did I!
