What is a "chuppie"? And if you are one, how does that make you feel?
Edited on Thu May-18-06 06:16 PM by HypnoToad
It's the new funky fad term invented by corporate-americans!

And if Corporations are the same as people, how come their executives never go to prison, get to be immoral and unethical, amongst all sorts of things? If you ask me, corporations are subjective when it comes to being treated as a person and when treated as a non-person.

But sorry to digress. Is it just me, or is "chuppie" an insult to their latest prey: Chinese yuppies? Don't you feel welcomed, being considered solely as a walking wallet and all? Sounds chitty to me.
