Bobo

Bobo is a portmanteau of the words bourgeois and bohemian.

The term is used in David Brooks book 'Bobos in Paradise' to describe the 1990s descendants of the yuppies. Brooks's thesis is that this "new upper class" represents a marriage between the liberal idealism of the 1960s and the self-interest of the 1980s.

Bobos, often of the 9-to-5 middle/upper class, claim highly tolerant views of others, purchase expensive and exotic items, and believe American society to be meritocratic.

Bobos hate 'conspicuous consumption' but will splurge on the "necessities" of life. Bobos consider money as a means rather than an end in itself.

Bobo can be used in place of the word yuppie, but it has a fresher and less negative of a connotation.

Aminah: Do you want to go to that french-japanese fushion place for dinner?
Sasha: Eh...I'm craving something local.
Sasha: ...maybe that raw food place you dig in the village?
Amy: Fantastic.. that way we can pick up some beer from Trader Joe's on the way back to the crib!

bobo

Short for "bourgeois bohemian" in fact another form of poser... pretending "acting" to be a dirtbag or grunge type, often in ski towns or outdoors activities areas - climbing, wind-surfing, kayaking, etc ... being the most hip, non-capitalist, vegan, supporter of causes. Often found in the hippest places in Latin America, Palestine, Africa, acting like the locals. When they are out of money and when the going gets rough they do not sell their truck or pawn their skis but go to the bank, discretely find their credit card or have their parents bail them out, supply an airline ticket or hospital bill. A covert "trustafarian"

She's not a dirtbag snowborder... she's a DuPont, a bobo...

bobos

Abbreviation for Bohemian Bourgeois. People who were hippies in the sixties, grew out of that, got a computer, and a 70 hour work week but still wanted to be "kinda funky" and "see the world". so they wear long skirts, grow a skullet, buy veggies at the "market" and fill their homes with overpriced expensive crap from 3rd world countries. To get that 'exotic look'.
