The Workingclass never wash and they all smoke. They stink and have skin diseases. They are all alcoholic and eat unhealthy food. They are all fat and they have rotten teeth. Most have false teeth and their homes are filthy. They are cruel to their pets and their children. They don't work and they are all racist. They watch TV 15 hours a day and they never read. They wear clothes from Primark and they have dandruff. I am so glad that I am not Workingclass anymore.
In Canada many people do not refer to the 'bathroom' as a room at all but an action. "I have to see a man about a horse", "I have to carve a bit of wood", "I have to read up on the stock market", etc.
I actually hate inverted snobbery! (I don't like plain snobbery either but inverted snobbery REALLY pisses me off). My grandparents lived in council houses in pretty much working class towns in Yorkshire, but my parents are teachers and we live in a nice house, and my friends always hold it against me and assume that my life is perfect just because 'I'm posh'. I really can't stand it when people assume things about me...especially when I'd never do it to them!
I am an American who has lived on and off in the UK. The very word "posh" dramatically defines a class attitude difference between us. The term rings of negativity. In the US, there is no equivalent term. The first time I heard "posh" as a description I asked "do you mean successful?". Even the British term "working class" I find funny. It seems to imply the pub job you got right out of sixth-form is harder than the intense 100+ hours/wk needed to stay in any upper-level finance position.
what class am i? my family is working class and we had no money, i've lived in council flats & been on the dole but i'm at university now! apparently going to university makes you middle class? i'm confused!
As a Canadian whose family has intermarried with British people I find this subject fascinating and impossible to fathom. It seems to keep your society so distracted and divided...and for what.
There are common people like me and everyone else but no there's a class that's even lower called chav or scum. England is goind downhill cause of these stupid native people that can't be bothered to look after their kids or even bother to smart up a little bit. This whole have a drink and a laugh atittude is fucking stupid
Love it or hate it, class system is almost everywhere (even winthin the institutions, like school). So, don't complain.... just enjoy the damn thing!
Although, for some odd reason, characters in Agatha Christie books are more posh than members of the Royal Family. Royals are very down to earth people.
Britain, the only country in the world where one can locate class from just from a few words? Hardly. Perhaps to a greater extent, this is true in the UK, but we see it everywhere.
My mother, instead, is of the opinion that "anyone better of than I am/has better manners or posture than I do/doesn't lop off the end of words randomly/has a better education than I do/etc is a snob". Pisses me off.
i loved this! lol. my Grandparents are quite posh british-canadian. as a kid when i went to they're place i never knew what the hell a serviette was lol, i just thought it was a british word, cuz they also did things like call french fries 'chips'. lol
Actually, real British toffs would never dream of uttering the word "serviette." They'd call it "napkin." No offence intended to your Grandparents.
I am unashamedly working class so I always use the latter. :) Having said that, I'm at university which means I have been shouldered into the middle class now! My Dad is a bottle maker and my mum works as a matron on the NHS. I'm an English student. :)
