Who is snobby?

Check yourself OP. No matter if you choose public or private you are NOT going to make any friends with opinions like these. Gag.

We are not snobby. I actually think most people we knew in the Northeast were down to earth. DC feels like it is full of social climbers.

Totally. Snobby and INDIRECT. I miss NY/NJ.

Thank you. DH and I have lived all over the Northeast where there are an abundance of excellent public and private schools. We attended college and grad school with people from all over including many valedictorians from not so great high schools. DC feels segregated and very classist. The snobby people I was referring to don't have much accomplishment but their parents were able to send them to these prestigious elementary and secondary schools.

Troll. Ignore the post.

Harvard and Yale.

Thank you for making my day a little easier.

Yikes. I truly hope this is a fake. My definition of snobby: Leading with where you went to college and, worse yet, judging others by where they went (second tier, oh no!!!)

I have lived here more than 20 years, and if you are old enough (sadly, I am), your friends will end up accomplishing amazing things. But I can honestly say that I barely know where most of my closest friends went to college (even when they went to H or Y or P or S...I added S because you missed the West Coast...East Coast snobbery to boot!). And I certainly have no clue where they went to high school.

I went to Yale, my husband went to a state school, we earn way (way way way) less, and our kids go to public school. Obviously we are not the smart ones. But it works for our family.

Least effective, most difficult, and inflexible bosses I have ever had went to HYP schools. Attending these schools are not a straight line to success and happiness.

Op - we didn't go to HYP (gasp - might be considered second tier) and we earn more than you (sucks for you) and kids go to private school. Now who's the smart one??

We have friends who attended Exeter and Andover type schools but they are down to earth. We earn $1 million+ per year so we can easily afford private school but these attitudes are really turning us off.

What are these people so snobby about?

Shorter OP: Why are all these people snobby, when they have nothing to be snobby about, unlike my husband and me, who aren't snobby even though we actually do have something to be snobby about?

Excellent summary!

+1

OP is a high school student, probably a junior, and completely making up the facts to stir up some shit.

We're HY also. You're why that's embarrassing sometimes.
