Procrastination Station- June 17
Posted on June 17th, 2015
So, Yuccies are a thing now. Defined by David Infante as Young Urban Creatives, Yuccies represent the intersection of the Yuppie and Hipster lifestyles. They are also a point of contention. Are you a Yuccie? I am not. (Shocker, I know) But I’m not sure how I feel about that?
Ah, elections. While I was busy reading about Caitlyn Jenner (and ogling the photos– I covet that hair/makeup/wardrobe team), I digested Vanity Fair‘s musings on the disappearance of social issues as a major platform point and what it’s replacement will be. “What Will Be the GOP’s New Social Issue”? See for yourself!
As a completely objective third party, I was also amused by their coverage of dress code drama at the Yale Club. As a member of the Penn Club, which is right down the block completely different, I simply couldn’t relate. 😉
And finally… The Aspirational Yes. So very common among millennials. RSVPing “yes” to an event, when you really mean no, or at best a soft maybe. I avoid this like the plague because being seen as a flake is a huge fear of mine, but appreciated seeing the phenomenon documented.
See? I told you this week would be an improvement. Happy reading!
