[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many Catholics live in the Blessed Sacrament parish, which is a good chunk of Chevy Chase on both sides of the DC line, and have for generations.[/quote]

And that group loves WASP cos play![/quote]

UMC Catholics have been doing the WASP look for so long I don't think it counts as cos play anymore, does it?  [/quote]

Yeah, WASP is more of a mindset than a rigid definition.

I come from the WASPiest family that ever WASPed (there are not one but two towns in the DC area named after my direct ancestors, you can see my family name on plaques all around DC, and my family sat on every board and belonged to every club at one point or another) but as far as I'm concerned as long as you are overly concerned with social status, enjoy casual alcoholism and racism, (usually at the same time) never ever discuss anything emotional or substantial with your parents, spend more money looking like you do good "for the community" than actually doing good for the community, have a strange obsession with early American furniture, and seriously think you're progressive because your beliefs have finally caught up with actual progressives from the late 1960s, then as far as I'm concerned you're an honorary WASP.
