so i live in a shitty apartment building in a not-so-pleasant part of town. crackheads, gangster wannabes everywhere, you know the deal. however, a huge office building recently went up around the corner, meaning that the properties here are suddenly very attractive to yuppies (the landlords at my building are chomping at the bit to evict people, renovate their place, and jack up the rent as per usual in these situations). apparently some have already moved in, because today as i was leaving the building, there was a man and woman in expensive clothes walking in front of me. each of them were carrying a couple bags of garbage. i didn't pay much attention until i saw that they weren't walking to the alley that leads to the dumpster, but instead brought their trash to an old couple that was nervously pacing beside a caddy. i watched, confused, as the young couple handed their garbage to the older people, then proceeded to turn around and walk back into the building. when i passed the car, i made eye contact with the old man and immediately a look of relief crossed his face. "excuse me?" he asked, "what do people in this building do with their garbage?" i pointed to the alley next to the building and told him that's where the dumpster was. he didn't seem to like this answer, and his nervousness returned as he exchanged glances with his wife. "it's not very far," i said, trying to reassure them. "the dumpster's just on your left at the end of the alley." he shifted on his feet uncomfortably and looked down the street, as if someone would come help him with this problem. i didn't see any point in standing and staring, so i continued walking down the street. as i looked back, i was shocked to see them put the garbage in the trunk of their car and drive away. i'm thinking that these young people were so stupid and/or scared of being robbed that they actually called their parents to take their garbage away! :rofl:

Fucking yuppies... I just moved to the "Third World" part of town(Doner Kebabs, internet points, chinese shoe shoops) and the locals don't give a shit about me(I aldready made friends with the KEbab's owner actually:rolleyes: ), but I'm sure those yuppies wouldn't go outside after 7PM...

i personally have no problem with yuppies as long as they don't ride bikes, i despise people in cities on bikes. i like shopping at whole foods/wild harvest. yuppie supermarkets are much cleaner and they do make much better neighbors IMO.

Exactly...Who the fuck would want THAT in their neighborhood? They got people throwing their trash out and shit...in my day we let it pile up until one of us got the plague, then we knew it was time to go to the dumpster. Then the rats would usually eat the dog, but we didn't cry...because crying is for Yuppie pussies.

Trust me, dude...as hostile southern said above...

My street has a couple really white-trash families who barely take care of their property. They don't cut their lawn ...just have weeds for a garden... leave all their bikes and shit and toys out in the yard.

I put a lot of money and time into my house, and by them not taking care of their lot, it actually diminishes the value of MY house .... not to mention everyone else's around theirs ...not to mention makes it unpleasant for me to come home and have to look at my neighbors mess.

If you're going to be all white trash and leave shit out in your lawn, go move to podunk nowhere and put everythiing you own out in the yard. You won't be pulling down everyone else's property value in the process.

Those are all buzzwords of the Homo-Yuppie Commie-Nazi agenda, you're falling into the trap man. You let them pillowbiters in your city they'll make it all nice, sure but they're probably more afraid to take out trash then the fuckin yuppies. One day it's getting an old man to throw out the garbage and then the next thing you know they're butt-fuckin on your front yard.

I dont undestand this skinhead mentality that some peoplehave that you have to be some sort of working class hero thats always just shy of the poverty line and lives in the shitiest "most authentic" neighbourhood. I think its just middle class kids that never new what it was to grow up poor and in a shit neighbourhood or else why would you aspire to it? :confused:

LOL... what's the Louie CK joke about that? He's joking about how there's people out there that are upset that there's gay people, and how he doesn't get it.

He's like "It would be one thing if you were mowing your lawn, and there were two guys fucking and you had to go around them or something... or in the morning eating your cereal ....and like two guys dicks touched right in front of you, and blocked your spoon from the bowl."

You know what sucks about moving out of a predominately black neighborhood?

No more block parties or hood rat parties down the street. If I did not have a child, we would stay put. I prefer living around the darks. My little girl has no friends her own age here and, without fail, the teenagers speed around with no regard to the smaller folks who might be on Big Wheels.

That is the true test of becoming an adult, when you begin to hate teenagers.

I love our neighborhood. About 5 or 6 years ago, it was a complete shithole. All the houses were run down and it was poverty stricken as hell, or so I've been told since I didnt live here then. But you could tell that when we moved in, this place used to be a dump. Now there's refurbishing of houses up and down the street. Our street consists of old black people, middle aged blacks with small children, art student fags, some greeks, punk rockers and us. It's awesome. We still have a decent amount of crackheads and nare-do-wells, but theyre usually just wandering through to a different part of town and knock on wood, we havent had our vehicles broken into so far.

plus, they're ghetto thug repellent. if you look at Asbury Park, NJ 10 years ago, it was a desolate, crack-infested, gangland shithole.

since the gays moved in, the main strip has undergone a serious transformation (i barely recognize anything anymore), and the waterfront and boardwalk are being developed finally for the first time in at least 30 years. the gang activity has gone down, and most of the junkies are gone too. it's still a bit if a shithole, but it's gotten 1000% percent better since the rainbow flags started popping up. ghetto thugs flee at te hsight of the rainbow flags, becasue living in a gay area destroys their street cred.

now yuppies... for the most part i agree that they make the neighbourhood safer, more desirable to live in and whatnot. they drive up property value, they provide jobs. from an economic perspective, they're great. but personally.. i just can't stand to be around them. for the most part they're arrogant, ignorant and think they own the world. they come into my neighbourhood (only ever in big groups) smash shit up, insult everyone and go back to their $300,000 homes, and you know they wouldn't do that shit if it was their neighbours that had to clean it up. i've never gotten along with a one of them... and while i hate crackheads, prostitutes and street gangsters, i feel a hell of a lot more comfortable drinking in a dive with a bunch of welfare bums than in a fancy (more expensive) bar with these arrogant pricks.

but to each their own... again, i'm not disagreeing with them moving in, as this is by and large a positive effect.

some people seem to have misinterpreted this as some big fucking statement against yuppies moving into poor neighbourhoods. that's not what i meant at all. i just think they're amusing.

Frealz. My mom sold our condo for like 290, in a complex that is known to have the highest percentage of drug dealers and drugs in general in town.

Even in a shitty town like mine, the yuppies managed to save some space in the hills and make their million dollar homes. Bastards.

Yeah I bet this guy thinks a yuppie is defined as someone with average income, living in an average home, driving a Honda Accord and wear a suit to work.

Seriously dude, a real yuppie is not what you have in mind. They live in (at least) $800,000 home with 2 BMW's, an SUV, membership at a private beach, at the country club, golf on weekends, yoga classes during the week, and a Guatamalan housekeeper. Does your "yuppie" neighbor have all that?

i always thought a yuppie was simply a young professional with an income between $40k and 120k... but i googled that shit, and it looks like you're right. deepest apologies to any yoga-doing, golf-playing jerk offs. :tongue:

edit - i'm a chick btw.

those ppl are def yuppies. but then you have the bike riding kinds (i cannot stress enough my hatred for people who ride bikes) who are yuppies soley on the way they act and what they buy, but not nessasarily their money. i think those ones are worse!

when i hear the term yuppie, the super rich doesnt exactly come to mind... it could range anywhere from cokewhores who think they are paris hilton to faggots with gotti boy haircuts, then you have the super rich. the bottom line is they all look down upon our lifestyle so fuck them with a boatpaddle. they can have the neihborhood but they will never take my pride or hatred.

That is the true test of becoming an adult, when you begin to hate teenagers.

Teenagers. Y'know, I can't quite remember when I started to find them annoying, but I do. Pretty soon we'll be the bastard neighbours calling the cops on house parties.

Dude, just wait until our babies grow up into teenagers, we'll have these annoying shits in our own houses! Oh man, I can wait a loooong time to hear

"Oh Mo-ther!"

That's really gonna suck, when I become Mo-ther. It's inevitable with teenage girls, you might luck out since you have a boy.

you'd be suprised what they will try and take these days. and as far as who's interested, i talk cause i love the sound of my voice and put my opinion out there, not to entertain anyone.

i personally have no problem with yuppies as long as they don't ride bikes, i despise people in cities on bikes. i like shopping at whole foods/wild harvest. yuppie supermarkets are much cleaner and they do make much better neighbors IMO.

I remember when I worked for County Roads I would be up in the middle of nowhere (Bald Mountian) working on some obscure patch of road that no-one could get to without 4WD. All of a sudden like three yuppie couples would come biking down the road in yellow jackets and vests ... wave ... then dissapear down the road?!!

Trust me, dude...as hostile southern said above...

My street has a couple really white-trash families who barely take care of their property. They don't cut their lawn ...just have weeds for a garden... leave all their bikes and shit and toys out in the yard.

I put a lot of money and time into my house, and by them not taking care of their lot, it actually diminishes the value of MY house .... not to mention everyone else's around theirs ...not to mention makes it unpleasant for me to come home and have to look at my neighbors mess.

If you're going to be all white trash and leave shit out in your lawn, go move to podunk nowhere and put everythiing you own out in the yard. You won't be pulling down everyone else's property value in the process.

Damn man, why you gotta talk shit about my place like that?
