I suspect that the stickers were placed by young punks,
Trustafarians, young recent arrivals, who want to see the
neighborhood be cheap and down for their own selfish reasons, so

allowances and/or don't hold full-time jobs. THE STICKERS are a
marketing campaign.
I imagine there are just as many or more more who want the opposite
to happen for *their* own selfish reasons.
I also recommend the Squatter Days documentary. It might just provide
some insight into these UC residents who you appear to hate so much.
Thanks Kyle for pointing it out!! It's a really good film.
I used a similar term to Trustafarians to describe The Hooters when
they were popular. Unfortunately I can't remember it now. I thought
it was ridiculous to write and sing "All You Zombies" when they lived
in Bryn Mawr. Also, there's a hilarious Sparks song called Suburban
Homeboy from their brilliant album Li'l Beethoven. Going for 35 years
and still making great music. If anyone want's the song, I'll send it
to them.
I am a suburban homeboy with a suburban 'ho right by my side
I am a suburban homeboy and I say yo dog to my pool cleaning guy
I hope I'm baggy enough for them
I play my Shaggy enough for them
I'll pop a cap up some fool at the Gap
'Cause I'm a suburban homeboy
I am a suburban homeboy with a suburban ho right by my side
I am a suburban homeboy and I say yo' dog to my detailing guy
I bought me cornrows on Amazon
I started listening to Farrakhan
My caddy and me he looks just like Jay-Z
And I'm a suburban homeboy
I am a suburban homeboy with a suburban ho right by my side
She's known as Miss Missy Tannenbaum and she's one freak bitch, ain't
no lie
She's from the projects in St. Tropez
She looks like Iverson in a way
She yo yo's me and I yo yo her back
And I'm a suburban homeboy
We are suburban homeboys
With our suburban ho's right by our sides
We are suburban homeboys and we say yo dog and we mean it, by God
We've got an old school mentality
Oxford and Cambridge mentality
Props to our peeps and please keep your receipts
And we are suburban homeboys
