Observations from mingling with the DC area elite

They are Type-A strivers, so yes probably more fit than the average city.

They are definitely not nice and gracious; maybe fake nice at best.

The overt striving is so embarrassing. I envy those who got to live through the period in which it was poor taste to try too hard. Man, that's the main reason I really envy those with generational wealth.

- Everyone is good looking! I have seldom been in rooms with people who are all good looking!

- Everyone is so nice and gracious. The politest people I have socialized with in the US.

I think you have the wrong club name? DC Elite are not hanging out at that club.

This is a joke, right? DC is just about the ugliest elite in the country. And by far some of the striviest. Thought everyone knew this. Visit the South OP, insanely good-looking people… or LA, Chicago, NY, London… or just about anywhere.

I have never been to CCC.

My first thought when I read this?

Someone’s jelly.

+1 DC has lots of uber wealthy people who don't even try to look good. Women with short hair, no makeup, and hiking clothes to go to a party or out to dinner. But they're worth $10M+

In any other major city in the world, people with money try to look good. Here, it's just about money and job that's prestigious in a nerdy, hyper-educated way.

OP, you forgot to mention that CCC is 95% White, with the notable exception of the staff. I'm sure it doesn't bother you right now, but maybe you should think a little deeper about why that is?

Not at all. That crowd is not very enjoyable.

Nope. Not much to be jealous of there.

I’ll bite. So what? White people can be attractive, fit and gracious.

The racial pie chart is completely irrelevant to OP’s point.

This just in! Rich white older people look pretty good and aren't fat! And also have good manners and know how to act in public!

And Howard University is 95% black. It doesn’t bother me.

You sound racist and ugly.

You mean jealous people who can't even pose as a striver wannabe because they are too far down the social hierarchy, so the best they can do is hate on it.

This is not anthropology. This is a short and superficial anecdote.

Your point?

We all knew what OP was talking about but you have to split hairs and be an a$$. I suppose that makes you better than her?
