It occurs to me that my description - "thirty-something urban dweller" - could reasonably be shortened to T.Ur.D. It further occurs to me that this sets up a natural grudge match with another acronymic sewer-loving city-dweller, namely the C.H.U.D. or Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dweller. Frankly, I'd put my money on the cannibals. A hungry monster is a crafty monster.
The rest of my description is the obnoxiously pretentious phrase "knowledge worker", which really just means I'm a thinking man's wage slave. In that spirit, I propose the slang term kno' ho', mainly so I can run around saying annoying stuff like I'm a kno' ho' fo' sho'. I really think that one could catch on. I'm heading to Urban Dictionary right now.
Watch out for the C.H.U.Ds.
