...forgotten in the shadow of those who come before and after them. Yuppies are expected to make it through somehow, become an accountant, and show up for Thanksgiving with a crock-pot or two of mashed potatoes as bland and frothy as their own lives. Yuppies have had no Great War or Great Depression in their time; their Great Depression is, as Durden says, "their entire lives." A yuppie's existential malaise springs from the very stability and conformity that defines him or her as a yuppie: day in, day out, day after day after day, it's the same...
Listen! We have heard how, in bygone times Christ cast out the merchants from his temple, overturning tables, kicking coins across the ground. We have heard how, unwet by waters he walked the whale-road, showed great courage. That was a good king...

Imagine my outrage, then, upon seeing an avowed liberal, wearing the "coming out day" sticker, nonchalantly destroy two Republican candidate posters Tuesday evening. This movement must abandon its false pretense of open-mindedness. The increasingly bogus "queer" agenda won no supporters and gained at least this opponent today...
