Yuppie Apocalypse

"mmm Yar, I think I have a window... Let me check... yes a window, yes I have a window.... do you have a window? If you have a window, I think I have a window too... mmmm yar, so we'll pencil in for that window then? mmmya o.k. Minty... Chow"


In 1986 'Yuppies' were flourishing in most big cities around the world, even to the point of being considered a "pest". Like locusts, anything green was consumed and assets were stripped, devastating communities everywhere. Yet it is now estimated, that they could all become extinct, as soon as 2015.
The onset of technology, coupled with the devastating "Yuppie Flu", has all but finished-off, this dying breed.

In a classic, rose-tinted, recollection of those selfish days, a new trust has been set up, to try and reintroduce the Yuppie to it's natural habitat. Wine bars are now being reconstructed, with ample Spritzers and plates of Quiche for everyone with shoulder pads or red braces and the biggest **** off phone, you can get.

Their ad campaign goes as follows: "Remember a Filofax is for the year... not just Christmas... Please give generously to the Westminster Society Hedge Fund."

On the other hand you could say to yourself, that "You Reap What You Sow" !
