It's like the Gap selling shirts that say "Fight Khaki!"

Yesterday, on the Upper West Side, I saw this:


It's a t-shirt, sold in Urban Outfitters, that says "Die Yuppie Scum."

Who on the Upper West Side is going to buy that -- other than teenagers buying it with their (yuppie) parents' money?

Can you imagine?
"Mom, can I have this $140 faux-vintage lace dress that hangs like a sack so it looks like I really scavenged it from a thift store? I need it for school."
"Okay."
"And these $22 striped, fingerless winter gloves? You know, for winter?"
"Sure."
"Oh, and this cool Die Yuppie Scum t-shirt!"
"Um, let's not."
"Whyyy? You never let me have anything I want!"
"Shut up, or you can drive the old car when we get to the Hamptons."
