Such condensation in three itty bitty words. But I'll admit I've used it.
Ok, I butchered condescension. OOPS. In my defense, spell check butchered it.

I've lived in the District for 24 years, and I've always called it The District.
"Downtown" is Farragut/K Street.

Everyone says they are:
thin: naturally though, the baby weight MELTED off at 10 days
very good looking and youthful: ppl CONSTANTLY comment that they are 25 but they are actually 48
upper middle class but struggling: only make 340k a year but between house payment, preschool tuition and annual pledges, and more IVF things are TIGHT.

"Larla" -- We get it. Your taste in children's names is far, far superior to everyone else's taste. You do not need to demonstrate it by referring to every other child by this name. You can stop using it. It's not funny. It's self-referential to a thread that wasn't funny in the first place.
"the poors" -- Bad grammer doesn't improve snotty, inaccurate references to a huge socio-economic class that is extremely diverse. You are demonstrating your ignorance, not your wit.
What are yours?
People that can't spell, and then will quickly say it's a typo (it's clearly not), or point out that they are not writing a thesis.
Grammar.
Stop whinging.

but what really bothers me is the constant use of "entitled". It's like people don't know what it means and use it as the default term to any behavior they dont like
I got that. It's still stupid.

snarky - OMG this word makes me want to vomit. It's cheesy. spare me. find a real word.
walkable - I already don't like you. You are the type of person that I cannot stand.
the district - It's "DC" or "downtown"!!!!!! Get it right if you want to live here.
Washington - like state? on the west coast? Again, its "DC" or "downtown"!!!

I don't care for the many abbreviations. It's not hard to type out "husband", "wife", "son", daughter", etc.
