Pesto havarti & french bread for your afternoon snack.
I was going to rant about how I generally hate snobbery. Sometimes it comes out on OT from certain peeps & it makes me angry. But then I thought about how I can be snobbish about certain things. So if you see me make a snobby, unnecessary comment that might offend someone, let me know. I usually try to keep a hat on any snobby thoughts or comments. Making a comment will only hurt feelings.
Anything you are openly snobby about? Anyone that's openly snobby to you?

This blog is a collection of things on my mind. Could be serious, could be rambling idiocy. I invite you all to read, debate, ridicule, *whack*, and even give me a little love.

Who's being a snob? I've actually been on OT today and didn't notice anything other than maybe a couple posts on Smooth's thread.
I like that you practice not being a snob. I can get WAYYYYY snobby at times and need to get that under control. Never outwardly. Mostly just thoughts.
It is beneath me to respond to this topic.
Oops.
I am never snobby. At all.
I tend to think snobby thoughts, although I rarely act on them. HOWEVER, one thing I do think and tend to act snobby about is dirty, filthy children and adults. You know the ones who, even straight out of the shower, just look filthy. Ick.
Oh, and I asked about Beloit because one of the girls that now works for me (hopefully not for long however) is from there. And the stories she's told....wow.
I don't really think that I have anything to be snobby about. I don't think I'm snobby. Bitchy? yes, I can be bitchy and sometimes insensitive but not snobby.
I am something of a food snob in that I like to cook from scratch. This is not to say that I require everyone else to cook from scratch, but sometimes I think that other people think I'm lording it over them that a) I can cook and b) I have time to cook.
And I'm not!
You know what? My in-laws used to think I came from a snobby family. In fact, SIL still seems to think that my father and mother didn't want me to marry DH because he wasn't rich enough. What SIL refuses to acknowledge is that Mom and Dad worked for the money they have. I remember not being able to afford things. I remember empty cupboards. She always talks about how they never had to worry about finances.
Oh! Story!
She talked to my Dad briefly at the wedding and said something like "They'll last forever" and Dad said "We'll see" (so she said the first time she told it). And the years have gone by, the story has changed and it turns out that Dad told her how DH and his family weren't good enough to mix with our family and how she totally told him off.
The drunker she is, the better she gives it to Dad for being a snob. *snort*
I think she has an inferiority complex.
I'm pretty snobby when it comes to bologna. I don't eat it. I don't touch it. I don't even want to look at it.
People are sometimes snobby to me regarding my clothing choices, my music choices, my book reading choices *grin*, etc.
I can come off as snobby, even when I don't *feel* the least bit snobby. I have no idea why this is, or how to change it. I guess just being more aware can help.
*sticks nose in the air and walks out of blog*
Last night's powerball winner is from Wisconsin and they haven't claimed the prize yet. Was it you?
I'm pretty much too clueless to notice if someone is being snobby to me.
I am very snobby myself though and only comment on the very bestest of blogs.
mmmmmm bologna
First, I think I might come across as snobby sometimes. Don't know why, nor do I care. (JK) I think it's cause I'm matter of fact about a lot. And I've been very blessed in my life, so I might take some things for granted.
Carie, the winner wasn't me, although I have bought tickets along "the miracle mile" in Fond du Lac in the past.
Thanks for all your replies to this (and btw, tkit, it wasn't anything in particular last week, just certain people I was thinking about on OT-and a few that rarely post anymore- that can be snobbish). I find the topic fascinating.
Momma-Beloit is pretty crappy. It has enough of the Chicago drug traffic and gang growth (like Kenosha and Racine, WI) that it's kind of a hole. It's always been pretty industrial anyway, so it just keeps sliding downhill. I think their only savior is the private college.
It's easy for me to be snobby since I m so much better than everyone.
Do you know that this is the first time I saw this? I don't think your blog refreshed all weekend for me for some reason!
Does that mean I don't have to update today, zombs? :-)
