Apr 7, 2006 The Quirk™ coined the term "geriappies," a combination of the words "geriatric," and "young professionals," i. e. aging yuppies. i22loy™ then sub-coined the term "geriuppies™." to refer to people who are more uppy than aging. How do you know that you're a geriuppy™/geriappy? -- If you go home from Eastwood around 10 pm, when waves of yuppies are finding it hard to park, then you're a "geriappie." -- If you stay at Eastwood as long as the yuppies, and notice that you seem to be in the older tenth of the population, then you're a geriuppy™. If you're reading this online, congratulations, you're a geriuppy™! Geriatrics don't use the internet. And geriappies are too busy changing the world to read a blog. Who said that geriuppies™ are better citizens than geriappies? If you're qualified to join Biggest Loser and your good-looking and buffed husband and his good-looking and buffed friends think that you're beautiful or sexy, then you're a fox.
