The Yuppie List Continues
Since 2006, here on Cup of Jo, we have tracked our embarrassing descent into yuppie territory.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, last night, we witnessed The Yuppie Comment of the year, if not decade. At a dinner party, over thai food and Blue Moon beer, we were told:
"We just went to a wedding in Sri Lanka, where our friend got so drunk that he fell off the edge of the infinity pool."
Wait, What? Awesome. Top that!

hahahahha....
i want to fall off the edge of an infinity pool!
As long as there is someone getting drunk and falling into something, everything should be okay!
i hope that that made your yesterday better!
wow.
holy *@!*. And now you've made me think of one I heard a little while back , it is still ringing in my ears. Shall I tell you?
yes, pia, tell!
that's a good one.
perhaps you've been directed this way before, but take a look here:

a cousin of your list, perhaps?
thanks for the fun post!
hilarious! yuppie-fabulous.
juliet, that is SO hilarious. i love that site!
Ha! I'll have to start tracking this given that a couple in my group of friends just bought their house--a first for all of us.
On to the conversations about private schools and skiing at Banff.
that absolutely rules. this is a really good game - i'm going to keep an ear out...
I love these. Keep them coming.
So this is what I witnessed, a conversation between two yuppie moms who I (embarrassingly) know, lets call one YUP MOM, and the other YUP YUP...
YUP YUP: "Oh my goodness, you are having twins, that is wonderful news! But my gosh, what a lot of work that will be. Will you have some help?"
YUP MOM: "Oh yes of course, we'll be having staff. The interview process will begin in a month."
top. that.
I was wondering about the yuppie list! That's excellent about the infinity pool...hmm, I'm sure I have some contenders. Round the table of a recent dinner party the burning question was; "how many Michelin starred restaurants have you been to and how many stars did they have." I'm sure there were some prize yuppie quotes in there, probably involving the word amuse-bouche...
P.S. YUP MOM is not Julia Roberts.
P.P.S if you include food discussions in the yuppie comments, then I am doomed. yikes.
How about hollywood yuppy: 'You have such delightful taste, would you help me shop for my oscar dress?' Me as a witness/ assistant to her twirling in various designer dresses. Sheesh...I felt like saying, what don't you take a long walk off a short infinity pool or something.

Love your yuppie list.
is it sad that i love these yuppie comments so much. beautiful, sad and hilarious.
I'm with Joslyn: Beautiful, sad and hilarious!!!
Joanna, have you been here:

It's hilarious and often true.
yup, we are slowly declining into full fledge yuppiness as well...alas at least we can laugh about it.
and i can also empathize with the baby fever, mine is out of control.
Too funny. And the blog that design addict mentions is hysterical - I was tears for about 1/2 hour reading through it with friends the other day. Sad thing is that it's really pretty spot on...scary!
i am loving this and i especially love pia's yuppie convo in the comments and the haricot verts! we all have our bourgeois guilt don't we...you should live where i live, they are slowly reeling me in, i am trying very hard not to become one of THEM!
hmm...
a) it was vietnamese food, not thai
b) how can they be yuppies, when they are wet the bed, limousine liberals!
somebody need a fact checker!
it tasted like thai:)
and i adore them tons, it was just a funny what-did-you-just-say comment. i am a victim of the same! :)
what a roar. thanks for the laugh.
Hi Joanna! I have been following for a while and decided this week to read all the archives! So forgive the totally anachronistic comment... but I've got a good one!
Cousin: ... So, because of our negative cruise experience, I ALWAYS tell my daughter to carry cash and an American Express card. I mean, you just never know...
Me: Wait, you mean your five-year-old?
