A satirical look at late 20th century yuppie consumer culture

Yes.

>>85243719
That wasn't satire.

There's nothing wrong with being a yuppie.

debate me

>>85244346

You're a pussy faggot that only cares about queer shit and talking softly, while your micro-penis is afraid to pee too loudly in the bowl and you'll never be able to truly keep up with the trends, you skinny fat pear shaped dipshit.

>>85244551
being a yuppie simply means you are young with a high paying job

projecting much?

>>85244346
Do you like Huey Lewis and the news?

>>85243719
Extremely kino.

>>85244346
I wish I was a yuppie. Young, upwardly mobile, professional. Those are good things, not bad things.

>>85243719
yes and I'm literally Niles.

They weren't young. They were trying to climb the social ladder, I guess, but they're really not yuppies. I don't even associate the word with Frasier and don't understand people who do.

He's a psychologist and radio talkshow host.

Probably stigmatised by the middle/upper class who's turf was being moved in on, and the lower class who were jealous. People don't like seeing others be successful. Especially if they're younger.

He's not a psychologist, he's a psychiatrist.

>yuppie
Literally means young urban professional, i.e. doctors, lawyers, accountants, psychiatrists, etc.

Granted, they're middle aged and not young but still yuppies.

They have all the trappings of 90s yuppies right down the conspicuous consumption and obsession with wine.

What even is a yuppie? How did you become one? What is the modern equilavent of a yuppie?

>>85246901
Yuppies still exist. They're just richer now since 2008.

>>85243719
sorry but the cranes were not yuppies

>>85246507
>family from Manchester with blatantly Australian and Scottish accents
The show never had a history of pandering or dumbing itself down, and then pretended like its audience were complete dipshits when it came to Daphne's family. I still haven't figured it out.

>>85246940
In what world does wearing $5000 armani suits and hosting fancy cocktail parties not make you a yuppie?

i love frasier

>>85247050
Yuppie =/= affluent. They are middle-aged.

>>85244346
No debate, let's have an axe fight.

>>85247050
They are not young urban professionals, they are middle aged.

>>85247137
>>85247091
They still have all the characteristics of yuppies despite not being young.

>>85247162
So they don't have all the characteristics of being a yuppie. They're missing the most important one.

Looking at the op picture if I did not know any better I would assume it was from a British sitcom, definitely not American.

Newfag foreigner itt. What is the meaning of word kino here? As far as I know word kino means movie in russian.

>>85247251
lel,
kino, first and foremost, is whatever the poster using the term likes
beyond that, something well done, the opposite of schlock or hackery

Now that the dust has finally settled, was he, dare I say it, /ourguy/?

>>85246964
It's a production in-joke. The actor that played Martin is actually from Manchester originally, while the actress that played Daphne was from an entirely different part of England. So they decided because Daphne's accent is complete bullshit, they'd do the same with her entire family.
