[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who go to elite schools but won’t say it are weird. Eventually, it will come out, and then you just look stupid. You may think it is self-effacing/humble, but it’s implicitly arrogant. It’s like you’re hiding that you belong to an elite club, then you’re outed. Obviously, there’s no reason to be embarrassed about attending such a school, so it seems like a humblebrag. And, if you think you’re protecting your conversationalist, you must assume they are fragile, which is also insulting and pretentious. If attending a great school is part of your life, just own it. [/quote] True, but it is bizarre how you always know someone went to Yale within ten minutes of meeting them. Idk what Yale puts in the water but it includes some sort of mandatory disclosure on the part of their students. [/quote] Not sure what's the big deal if someone doesn't want to give YOU the answer. Of course, you'll find out within 10 mins. [/quote]
