[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are numerous bold face names at various NYC schools. People who travel in those circles know who many of them are and which schools they are affiliated with. But it is very gauche to publicly specify who they are and what schools. And if you see them at the school or a school-related event, you don't fanboy over them. Just yesterday I found out about a fairly prominent name affiliated with my child's school who I wasn't aware of (we are fairly new). It came up in a natural context, not "did you know that this person is at the school? OMG!"[/quote] The way you talk shows how striver you are. It is perfectly natural to be curious about these people. It’s an anon board. [/quote] I'm not a striver. You clearly don't understand what the word means. You're low class. Respect their privacy.[/quote] Anyone who calls someone "low class" is usually the trashiest person around. [/quote] You called me a striver. Someone who calls someone names and doesn't even use the term right is low class. What else would you call it? I love when people initiate conflict with name calling then clutch their pearls and get defensive when called out on it. I'm not allowed to defend myself? Very Trumpy. If your initial response was just the second two sentences then we could agree to disagree. But you called me a name. Own it. And since you think it is OK to do this, why don't you broadcast what elite institution your child goes to with so many celebrities? I'm sure they would be proud to have a parent like you.[/quote] PP may not have been referring to you as a striver in the traditional use of the word which refers to socio economic class but maybe in other aspects…there are liberal justice strivers, political strivers, I need to take the moral high ground and correct internet troll strivers…you name the category, there are strivers. Lots of diversity in that sense. But best not to debate PP on semantics anyway that’s a distraction from why she finds you annoying [/quote] Original pp. yes, thank you. That poster who I called Striver expressed weird pick me, annoying energy in her post ‘so gauche!’ lol. And anyone who runs to call someone low class is usually low class and insecure themselves. Ie STRIVER [/quote] I'm new here but I generally find writing in all caps to be very MAGA. YMMV.[/quote]
