I swear there’s a random college generator that someone uses when replying to threads like this. |

| The SJW twits are just as conformist as those wearing Docksiders and IZOD polo shirts. Fashion might change, but douchebags don't. |

Southern preppy (ie Alabama) and New England preppy (ie Colgate) are not exactly the same thing. A kid comfortable with one will not necessarily be comfortable with the other |

I am so glad you asked this question. The OP is posing a question. Maybe she's writing a screenplay and she needs to know where a character should go to college. Maybe she is settling a bet with a friend like, if you ask people what the most preppy college is, X is the first thing they will say. Maybe she knows a child, perhaps her own DC who has a preppy vibe and wants to find college that suits that. The insistence that OPs explain their life stories, are told their questions are bad questions, are told they are looking at things the wrong way (and these are the best possible consequences)... is what STOPS people from asking questions and seeking help. I do not like that. I like internet boards where people are approached with kindness and openness. People should be able to ask, hey guys what do you think about this, without insecure, critical strangers jumping all over them. Sure, there are are people who ask follow up questions to be more helpful. But what usually happens is finding out a little bit more about an OP just results in shots taken at them. So yeah, I don't like it. I care. I want this to be a place people can turn to for help. Not just the OPs but the many readers who can benefit from reading responses. Every OP, assuming they are humble in their request, should be helped. Not told their kid is a scumbag because he wears polo shirts. Which is what some people here are actually hoping for. |
