Hasta la arriviste, baby!
You guys had somewhat of a snow day yesterday, so let me see some good effort today.
Reynolds in Marketing recently won the lottery and became the latest tragedy of the arriviste as relatives and former friends came out of the woodwork to pander for his windfall.
Without even reading your example, the first things that came to mind were the arrivistes in the White House — Barry & Michelle.
In the South, someone who comes into money and is showy about it is referred to as “new money”. Those who tend to spend lavishly and make sure others know they have it to spend quite often don’t have it for long...
Don’t say “snow” or any cold stuff, pleeease-Spring is here right now-62 and sunny...
Obama’s arriviste minions
Think everything is a perq-
They expect to have them
Without doing any work
They believe they’re elevated
Instantly into high society-
And pretend they never heard
That French word “bourgeoisie”
Or maybe translate it into
Regular English this time-
They can play society trash
But don’t do it on our dime...
I’d like to say “arrivederci” to the arriviste in the White House.
