What snobberies do you have that you cant vanquish even if you try?

I was raised by a snobby professor who enthusiastically corrected my enunciation growing up. Not once did he correct me for not emphasizing the Ts in words like this.

When someone pronounces hard Ts in the word important, I feel like they’re trying to hide a poor or lower class upbringing, and they think this is one of the things they should do to fit into their new SES.

The cultural outlook that those who try in school are "brainiacs" and are to be shunned as uncool versus those who don't try and are therefore cool.

Parents who refuse to say NO and helicopter moms.

My snobbery, after living in the US for several decades is yes, Americans are often loud, fat, eat unhealthy food, have limited vocabulary and are culturally bereft.

Sure, I hate face tattoos but wasn't it Post Malone who said he got tattoos on his face in an effort to cover up his ugliness? Meanwhile, despite the tattoos he has a reputation of being incredibly kind and respectful towards everyone.

He would still be kind and respectful without the face tattoos. Face tattoos mean you've given up on ever fitting in as a normal person, or you have been raped in jail.

Man life is too short to worry about “fitting in”. Make choices that please you. You get one life, how sad to spend it trying to fit in.

I don't want to fit in with people who have been raped in jail. No.

Sorry, you lost me. Who was raped in jail?

That's the origin of face tattoos. Jail.

It actually originated with indigenous cultures, you boiled potato.

I'm very thankful that people who do not wish to have children do not have them. I'd much rather not see children mistreated because they were not wanted. You're a horrible person for thinking that everyone should have children to meet some kind of societal norm.

Societies for thousands of years have been skeptical and wary of childless people. For very valid reasons.

Nope, only psychos like you. People do not have children for a million different reasons. You should learn how to mind your own business. I'm extremely weary of stupid people like you.

There are no million different reasons, there is always one reason: God/nature/higher power decided that these people do not need procreate their own type. The cycle will end with them. But poor idiots think it is their decision.

Hmmm this is an interesting one. As a younger woman (20s/early 30s) I always thought there was something a bit off about people who remained childless past the age of 40. going through my 30s and having my own children I have tried to reserve judgement and quash these feelings. But observing my own circle it seems the functional, successful ones all have kids and the ones with severe mental health issues or other life impediments have ended up childless.
I also wonder if it is a chicken and the egg thing- are the childless mentally unbalanced older women I know that ways because they never had kids? Or did they not have kids because of their own limitations?
Anyway something to ponder. I would never admit this in real life because it is very in PC. We're supposed to be in admiration of women who are childless and "free".

I tend to agree for the most part. I know there are people where life circumstances get in the way. I have an older, childless aunt but she was in a dangerously abusive marriage as a young woman, got divorced, didn’t date at all for around 10 years as a result, but did end up re-marrying in her mid 40s to a man who already had kids (albeit older), she is now in her mid 70s, still married, and loves being a step-grandma. There’s definitely some of that out there with the older generations. Also a lot of people who are middle class and couldn’t afford to treat their infertility issues.

But I do think with most people, it’s their own mental limitations that lead them to not have kids and most of them never seriously date or try to get married either. I wouldn’t say I judge it, but I’m also not going to take life advice from them. To me, they’re living in a state of perpetual adolescence with the same naive arrogance of your average 18-25 year old.

You are absolutely judging them. You are judging them because of your own intellectual and emotional limitations that prevent you from realizing that there is absolutely nothing wrong with not having children, whether by choice or because you are unable to biologically. I do judge and feel pity for people like you who simply can't imagine living a life that is at all different from your own.

Quit trying to hijack the thread with your meltdown. I frankly don't care if someone is childless, I don't treat them harshly, I just don't want them in a position of authority over me and my family and I'm not going to take what you say seriously. Having children changes you in ways childless people can't imagine. I don't need to explain myself, it's pointless to try.

We get it. Your only accomplishment was getting knocked up. As a parent, I always avoid parents like you.

Strivers who attempt to highlight their spending habits through pricey or logo’d purchases make a negative impression.

Since my career is in the nonprofit arena, one thing that really irks me is when the most vocal preachy purist judgmental social justice warriors live in fancy houses in largely segregated neighborhoods and send their kids to very expensive private schools. The hypocrisy is so obvious when they don’t walk the walk yet they scream the (hypocritical) talk. These same people tend to draw real lines thanks to their own bias against certain colleges, states, or entire swaths of the country. To wit, an objectively impressive applicant had applied for multiple positions at my org yet none of the hiring managers brought them in for an interview. HR flagged it for me because they couldn’t understand why this candidate wasn’t rising to the top for at least a first interview, and I agreed…but suspected it was because of where they went for undergrad (think: red state). I pulled a hiring manager aside to ask why they hadn’t interviewed this person and they stumbled over their fake excuses. My suspicions were confirmed. In the end, we interviewed and hired the objectively outstanding candidate. Again, a few SJW colleagues allowed their bias to cloud their judgment. So frustrating.

They’re probably all people who post here too.

I dont mind that.
But I do think less of the intelligence of those who say “impor-ent”. A lot of white southerners do for some reason. Maybe it was in cotillion.
