Yuppie Larvae

The children of Yuppies.

These children/teens often exhibit ingnorent and self righteous behavior. Because of this, they feel that they are invincible and superior to anyone and everyone because his Dad will sue your Dad. In their struggle for superiority, they fall vicum to any trend. They feel the need to keep up with their peers in terms of fashion and technology yet have little respect for it (or the debt that their parents gather from buying it all for them). They will rarely wear anything but American Egale, Hollister, Abercrombie and Fitch, etc. and never be caught buying from the clearence rack.
Another charactoristic is that their parents will also call them names like "Joshie" or "__ie". "Dakoda", "Austin" or other Amarican geographical titles. Lastly, if their name is spelt in some weird and wonderful way that also is a sign of a Yuppie Larvae. Like Naethen (Nathan) or Deanna (Diana). This was done on the parents part to : 1.express creativity 2.make their child stand out or 3.ignorance.
Once fully grown they will to turn into the relitivistic money gouging yuppies that think everybody wants to hear their opinion and will sell their soul for a shiney penny.

Upon being challenged, the common larvae will raise no good points to defend his/her arguement and often will have to seek out assistance from near by friesnds or associates.

Yuppie Larvae

The term Yuppie Larvae originated in the 1989 film Ghost Busters two, in reference to obnoxious children at a birthday party. Other than this the term is not usually used in day to day dialogue. This may be because, the people who are around yuppie larvae on a day to day basis are used to these kind of children and may not think anything is out of place, those who are around the children, will be more annoyed at the parent's thus the children will be overlooked.

Yuppie Larvae are the children of white inner city (including inner city suburban) families who are middle class, typically of white collar professions of middle or upper middle management. Their parents must have an sense of entitlement or superiority including the perks that come with white privilege. They will generally have nice things, drive nice cars and be into the latest (expensive) fashions.

The children must be stuck up in some way, believing that if you are not one of them socially then you are below them. That includes the people who are around them in their daily lives, the people who are paid to make them more comfortable ("the hired help"). They may say "thank you" or be nice but they will never be humble and believe that everybody owes them.

Anyone who works in retail, or any other service industry will understand the wrath of Yuppie Larvae.

My students are such Yuppie Larvae, they talk over me and never listen. If I try to enforce the rules in the class, they make references to how powerful they believe their parents are in order to intimidate me. They are just a bunch of brats!
