Snobbery

[Gardenlover]

Are there any areas of your life that you feel like you may be a snob? A wine snob, coffee snob, chocolate snob, car snob, etc.

For example, I perfer Nespresso coffee. (but I drink all types of coffee)

 

[Catlady]

Not a snob at all. I buy what I can afford and usually that is something that costs 1/2 or less of the top of the line in that item.

 

[Grampa Don]

I don't THINK I'm a snob. But, I do enjoy Long Jing green tea that I buy direct from a company in China. Right now I'm having some regular Lipton black with a touch of brandy.

I'm a soap snob

If a snob means "picky," I'm a snob about a few things:
Coffee
Stereo sound quality
Firearms accuracy & reliability

Well I do regard some people, like the English, as socially inferior, but perhaps that's racism rather than snobbery!

As a Scot who spent much of his life in England, may I recommend the words of Burns...

O wad some Pow'r the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us!
It wad frae mony a blunder free us,
An' foolish notion:

I guess sometimes I'm guilty of being an RV snob. Wife will catch me snickering at some newbee and remind me there was a time, way back when I was just as ignorant of how things worked in an RV. Makes a point of telling me of all the dumb mistakes I've made along the way. Geeez, how is it wife's can file away all those memories just to bring them up and make us feel crappy?

 

[Keesha]

I prefer to use the word connoisseur myself and YES I most certainly am one and shamelessly so.

My cannabis is THE BEST!!!!
My hair products are THE BEST!!!
My tea or coffee is THE BEST!!!

Actually I feel this way about many things so if people wish to call me a snob I’m ok with that.

Hey buddy. We live for it! ☺

 

[Rosemarie]

Yes, I'm definitely a snob, and not afraid to say so. However, I won't risk offending those on the other side of the Atlantic by going into details.

 

[RadishRose]

I have preferences, but I don't feel snobbish.

 

[Lvstotrvl]

I’m a snob about my doctor, I think he’s the BEST!!

 

[applecruncher]

I'm probably a snob about personal hygiene and dental issues. People who have body odor or ugly teeth that haven't been taken care of turn me off.

I'm an American. We know that the rest of the world is inferior to us in every way. And, we excell, especially when it comes to pointing out the flaws in other nations. Now that being said, so you know we are not coming to the table with clean hands. But, when I visited the UK several years ago, there was a definite sense of place-everyone had his own place. There was such a definite strata- and a hierarchy of people. In the US, it doesn't matter how poor you are, you're "middle class". And we don't have titled people running around. In the US, if you aren't on YouTube or TV, you don't matter. People in the UK, accept their "place", and are happy with that. I'm not sure that's true snobbery.

Gary O, how long does it take you to get out of that tub?!!

Depending on the season
Summer; I dawdle, stand, stretch, sun off
Winter; less than 5 seconds

 

[Warrigal]

Snobs get pretty short shrift where I come from. I try hard not to appear as one.

"Quaffable, but far from transcending."
