Talk:yippie

RFV discussion
"An expression of excitement." I think they meant yippee:; or is this used too? (It seems to me that yippee is always stressed on the second syllable, while yippie from its spelling must be stressed on the first.) Equinox ◑ 19:34, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * When used ironically (usually muttered or spoken quietly, not yelled), it is stressed on the first syllable, so I supposed the spelling would change from yippee to yippie. "Hey, guess what you guys! We get to work overtime this weekend!" "Yippie. Lucky us." —Stephen 20:44, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Rfv-sense: A person who straddles yuppie and hippie mentality or lifestyle.

This seems like a re-interpretation of the term. I am skeptical. If attestable, the purported definition seems to suggest a separate etymology. DCDuring TALK 19:07, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Blend of yuppie and hippie, I assume. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:37, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
