WASHINGTON—According to a report released Tuesday by the Brookings Institution, a Washington-based think tank, the recent influx of exceedingly affluent powder-wigged aristocrats into the nation's gentrified urban areas is pushing out young white professionals, some of whom have lived in these neighborhoods for as many as seven years.

It's like an alternate dimension.

Or a bad episode of Star Trek with William Shatner.

Toss up.

There is no such thing as a bad episode of Star Trek with William Shatner.

I think I spied the Queen peeking into Berman Realty earlier today...

Fun-knee!

But, do I detect a photoshop job? Look at the guy in the grey suit - look at the crook in the dude's right arm/elbow - looks like someone, a woman perhaps, should be holding that arm. Right?

Aren't a lot of the cuts in The Onion photoshopped? It's still hilarious. I think more people should wear those colors and tails.

other than the lack of baby carriages

it looks pretty real to me

Dear me! Hubby and I were photographed without our permission! And Uncle Albert without his pince-nez... Auntie Gertrude will be appalled I tell you, appalled! Where is a decent barrister when one is needed, eh what?

Ha ha I love this!

Nice!

I would personally LOVE it if this really happened. After all, I could always get a job as a scullery maid while I'm still sort of youngish.

Subject: ha

Great picture, i guess i have to start wearing my 3 piece suit and top hat more often-...
