What do you the most judgemental about?

"I judge people who are no longer poor but feel like reminding you of the times when they were poor and they "struggled" to get where they are."

You have no idea, you spoiled do-nothing/expect everything. Does their reminding you make you feel like you should actually WORK for what you have? What a concept!

I know people in this area who could have never paid rent without their parents. And they were NOT saving the world in the meantime. Useless, indeed!

I judge people who don't recycle.

I judge people who say "___________ much?"

"Presumptuous much?"
"Bitchy much?"

UGH!


Annoying much?

I would bet that the school snob poster is also one of those women who claims that she doesn't have other women friends because women are too catty. Or I bet she has a truckload of frenemies. People who genuinely believe that they are better than other people are not well-liked, nor are they well-respected.

No, actually; I have plenty of women friends. And, I hate to break it to you -- there are plenty of "school snob" people just like me. And I'm not looking for your friendship or respect; you need not worry.

Ha. You're not making yourself look any better. Who knows, maybe you do have friends, but nice, good people do not like people like you. They may tolerate you and they may even promote you, but they do not like you and they do not want to be like you.

Hmm. I think you've missed the point of this entire thread, which is not to make myself "look any better," but to reveal what I'm judgmental about. (Apparently, my school snobbery really hits a nerve with you; I'm guessing it's because you already feel defensive about your own background.) Regardless, I think you're also missing my point above, which is that I really don't care what you think. If it makes you feel better to think that "people do not like people like [me]," feel free. I'm not going to try to convince you otherwise. I do think that you lead an awfully sheltered life if you think there aren't plenty of people exactly like me. We like each other. And many of us live in Washington. And many of us are nice to your face even if we think you're a dimwit in our private thoughts. That's the beauty of judgment; you can keep it to yourself in the real world.

I judge uber-liberal people. I work hard for my salary. I struggled to put myself through college and I deserve every penny I earn. I think it is ridiculous that I need to share my income with the baby-mama who can't pinpoint who the baby-daddy is... Those who are into wealth redistribution need to get on the next flight to communist wherever, asap.

You just proved her point.

LOL!!

I am the "I judge conservative people..." poster. And I am both amused and confused. I thought the purpose of this thread was just to put your topic of bias "out there", not for someone to get their knickers in a bunch over what is stated.

And for the record, many "uber-liberals" (I can not believe I just typed "uber", talk about an overused term! blech!!) also work hard for their salaries as well as struggled to put themselves through college. This is not something that is unique to conservatives.

Okay, good stuff on putting your bias "out there" -- NP here, and here's mine: I judge people who are stupid enough and/or uneducated enough and/or ignorant enough to think that being either a "conservative" or "liberal," in and of itself, makes you an a-hole. There appear to be plenty of you here on DCUM. Mostly of the self-identified liberal persuasion.

And I judge people who attend poorly ranked graduate school programs. I'm a school snob. And a conservative. And possibly an a-hole. But I went to really good schools.

Well, you're an a-hole, but at least you know you're an a-hole. Do you see any irony in the fact that you just talked about how only stupid people judge others for being liberal or conservative, and then went on to bash liberals?

But good for you for attending a top ranked graduate program. That makes you special.

Um, this is where my fancy education suggests to me that I am actually "special" -- I understand (a) what irony is and (b) how to read properly. I made no such blanket statement bashing liberals; I merely suggested that those making blanket statements against groups on this forum are of self identifying as liberals. Perhaps you are not intelligent enough to understand the distinction?

No, I think your head is far up your own ass you just don't get it. And no I'm not stupid. I went to a good school. But I don't hold it against anyone.

Don't worry, nobody here is looking for your friendship either. And I seriously doubt your friends are very good friends. The school snob stuff is superficial. Being well educated does not make you a better person than others. It just makes you better educated about certain things.

Well, you're right that there are a lot of you out there, that you gravitate toward each other, that a lot of you are in Washington, and that you're mean to people behind their backs. Agreed. Not sure why you think that's okay, but... we definitely agree on those points!

I judge women who wear tennis outfits to drop off/pick up their kids from school.

You know what, if you had half the common sense of the people you put down in your "private thoughts" you'd realize that you're not actually keeping it to yourself. Those of us who you belittle, who actually are not idiots but the way, we just didn't go to Harvard, we see it on your face every time we interact with you. And we don't care what you think of us. What bothers us is that you think so highly of yourself when you're not all that. We KNOW you're just being nice to our face. Believe me, we know.

I think it's the opposite. School snobbery reeks of insecurity. It's just like some (some!) breastfeeding moms who feel so superior to formula feeders... they hang onto the one triumph they think they have because, deep down, they don't think they've got anything else.

NP here. If you think that people do not realize how fake you're being, you are very wrong. I know so many people like you, and yes, you are very "nice." And I'm "nice" back. But think about it, you probably know I'm not sincere, just like I know you aren't. So don't pretend that because you went to a good school and think you are so smart that others aren't perceptive of your snobbery.

Oh, we know there are plenty of you out there. And plenty of you live in this area. And there are PLENTY of people in this area who are intelligent and went to good or great schools and aren't snobs about it.

Also, don't think that people who are responding to you didn't go to good schools. We did. And we understand there is so much more to intelligence than just getting an Ivy League degree. And we know there are plenty of fun, interesting, intelligent people out there who for whatever reason went to "lesser" schools. Your narrow-mindedness when it comes to the name of the school someone went to shows a startling lack of depth of thought and understanding of other people.
