[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be very anticlimactic to read about the couple that met in [b]community college[/b], both of whom [b]work in management at Chilis[/b], and who are [b]a month behind on the rent for their efficiency walk-up [/b]because they spent too much extra money when they went to their parents timeshare this year.  The couple is planning to [b]honeymoon in Disneyworld[/b], apropos following their[b] Disney-themed wedding that will include an open bar.[/b][/quote]

[quote=Anonymous]Seriously, why does everybody assume that all posters on DCUM are loaded, in posession of an ivy league degree and trying to spread hate? For starters, i cant believe I am being accused of lying about how much money we have in the bank. Not trying to be a rich girl poseur.  Trust me, if I had a comfortable buffer I would flaunt it.

I said that it would be anticlimactic to read about a couple like my husband and I. It would. If we married tomorow, our marriage announcemnt would tell of our undergraduates degrees from state schools [b](jmu and odu),[/b] and the irony that we both[b] worked at chilis in Fairfax different summers[/b] but never met. We [b]married in a hotel ballroom in fair lakes[/b] and now[b] live in a townhouse.[/b] Our jobs are both just ok but let us get home by 6 and spend time as a family. And [b]we have equity in our house like mad and are close to paying off our student loans [/b]so just wait!! Who knows what new day will dawn that will make us exciting to read about!!!  [b]We did honeymoon in Europe[/b] so there is that but otherwise...not selling any newspapers.

Go find an imaginary slight elsewhere.[/quote]

First, I didn't assume that you're loaded. I just assumed that you're not in the same socioeconomic class as the kind of people you mocked in your first post, and it turns out I was right. Secondly, own the shit you post instead of doing weird backtracking. You were obviously mocking the kind of people you talked about in your first post. Your followup post mentioning that you went to James Madison instead of community college and honeymooned in Europe instead of at Disneyworld does nothing to reinforce your claim that you were simply talking about people like yourself.

And if $94 is truly your balance across all accounts at your bank, you should be spending your time working out your finances rather than mocking the working class on message boards.[/quote]
