  2. Haha no, it's slang for "Bourgeois-Bohème," which is a pejorative term for yuppies.

    And to translate for the rest, because it's mostly slang...

    Ploucs: hicks
    Bourges: bourgeois
    Chalalas: Jewish "princesses"
    Touristes & Racailles: Tourists and scum
    Banlieusards: commuters
    Pédés: gays
    Fringues: duds
    Personne n'y va: nobody goes here
    Coupe-gorge: Cut-throat/dangerous
    Putes: whores
    Vieux: old people
    Reste du Monde: the rest of the world
    Pauvres: poor people

    I love this map because it's pretty much true...you'd have to live here to know, though.
