Subtle signs of class

What class ain't----Lauren Sanchez dancing on a yacht...

My mom, who grew up barely middle class (her dad was a public school teacher), invited a Catholic friend to our Passover Seder after she expressed curiosity. When the friend was getting ready to leave she mentioned dying eggs for Easter the next day, so my mom gave her all our extra hard boiled eggs. I remember thinking that was really classy of my mom.

Why do you attack the woman but leave out the morally corrupt male out of the party?

Point made here by you. You might be wealthy, but you are trash. No person with class would post what you posted.

Being extremely wealthy doesn’t mean you have class.

If you make your own FU money, the little "classists" on this forum don't matter to you.

And yet, here you are.

Love your mom!
Such a great role model.

Gold metallic painted concrete lions at the gate of your Mansion driveway. Actually, real gold ones wouldn't be UC either.

Art includes antiquities, framed handwritten poems signed by Maya Angelou, and mounted heads of animals killed while hunting.

What on earth have you been reading

People with class don’t buy a Hyundai.

Are on the walls. It doesn't have to be originals, but not some random Thomas Kinkade or similar that you picked up at Home Goods. Professional family portraits/self portraits on the walls vs the LifeTouch school photos and family vacay pics.

If there's a dog, it's well behaved. Never jumps on guests and obeys commands to sit and lay.

Big loss of points if there's a TV in the living room. TVs are for the family room, not formal living room.

Shelves and surfaces aren't cluttered with random knickknacks from travels.

If a piano is present, it's in tune. Nothing more telling than a guest setting down to play something and it being out of tune.

That's a provincial, suburban mindset right there. A lot of us live in cities here... there's only a living room. And the tv is in it. Oops!

Yes. Not to mention PP’s weird country phrasing of “setting down to play” piano.

Also, having family portraits of any kind displayed in public spaces is gauche.

^^^ photos, that is.

Being concerned with morals is super middle classed.

The pathetic middle class alone are concerned with morals?
All others are immoral.

The rich are immoral grifters. (A little extrapolation there.)

Actually, the wealthy aristocrats didn't have to be concerned with morals because.... they are born to that station in life and didn't need to care what other people think.
In Brideshead Revisited, the Lord of the manner remarked how his future middle class wife's concerns with the immorality of his sister living with her lover was "so middle class".

This.
