It is the general attitude of the student body.  I guess you took exception to the statement since you went there and now your DC is.  I am sure I would be offended, too.   You are probably likable to each other.   If you are one of the few who don't have this superiority complex, then great.  I actually know someone who went to Harvard for undergrad.  He is great person.  But he also complained people there were snobs, and he hated every minute of  his experience there.  He went onto a different grad school for his Law degree, not Ivy.  He's much happier.

If most of your friends are also Ivy grads, then you probably can't tell whether you are all likable or not to the general public, and actually, you probably don't care.  But as I said, if you are one of the few that is likable, then that's great.

As I said, everything we say is a generalization since no one has absolute knowledge or authority over any subject matter.   But my general opinion of Ivy grads is that they are snobby, hence not likable IMO.

You should be embarrassed by this. Seriously, none of this makes sense. You can't proclaim on Ivy student body traits if you never attended an Ivy. Then, you combine your acquaintance with maybe 5-10 Ivy grads with your overweaning confidence that this limited familiarity entitles you to made broad [b]over-[/b]generalizations, and so you go ahead and assume that I, my DC and my friends are all unlikable. Really? Guess what, your post with these silly [b]over-[/b]generalizations make you seem extremely silly, and unlikable. [/quote]

That poster sounds so simpleminded it would be funny if she wasn't an adult.

Her posts ooze with envy and insecurity. She has to make ivy leaguers unlikable in her mind in order to feel better about the fact she will never be one.

And with her flawed logic and inability to reason, one can easily see why.[/quote]

This oozes snoby to me.[/quote]

I'd rather be snobby, confident, arrogant, whatever...

Than insecure and envious of those who are able to attain that which I am not.

I'd rather ooze snobbiness than insecurity and jealousy. And please never let me be STUPID!

Yawn.

Are you finished now? You are boring us.[/quote]

Who engages a bore ?

You're beyond dumb.[/quote]
