[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's on the trashy side if, say, you are a hotel that advertises breakfast with orange juice, but you water it down to save money without acknowledging that to your guests. If you are doing it for yourself, or for other people not paying for it and expecting undiluted then it isn't trashy. It's just diluted.[/quote] That's my point. Cutting/diluting orange juice has trashy roots -- poor families would add water to the jug to "stretch" what was left in the container, right?[/quote] Ah. Thinking something is trashy just because sometimes some poor people have done it is called "class insecurity." It means the person who thinks it isn't secure in their station of life. I think the real marker of low class issues is in questioning whether it's "trashy," i.e., a signifier of lower social class. So it's not the doing of it, but the focusing on the doing of it.[/quote]
