Typical of the vulgar oiks at the Mail to consider income from working as defining class. Breeding, schooling and manners, that's what it's all about. You can be on £200k a year but if you wear brown shoes with a dark suit or a single cuffed shirt you're still not at the top of society. Fucking plebs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up eating whatever was on special offer in Farmfoods that week. Same, with the voucher out the paper for a fiver off if you spent over £50 taken along. Random shite and unplanned purchases would be thrown in towards the end of the shop just to make sure of breaking the discount threshold, rendering the actual 'saving' void as it was mostly pish that wouldn't ordinarily have been bought.

Anyway I've just enjoyed a £4.50 slice of artisan Italian cake with my coffee. Edited July 13 by Lurkst 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking plebs. There’s an old adage that the working classes define class in terms of money, the middle classes define it in terms of education and the upper classes define it in terms of breeding Obviously that logic doesn’t stand up to rigorous examination but it captures a certain truth 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murphy1970 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 In Ayrshire, it’s hero worshipping Rabbie Burns with all the attendant Lallans scots, whilst correcting the plebs pronunciation. From doon ma wey the poem the lass o ballochmyle should sound like The Coturn wids ur yella seen, but try saying it that way and the grammar/language police (bourgeois division) will set the dugs on ye 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kind of folk who put on a cringeworthy Scots accent around non-Scots (either irl or on the internet) when they wouldn't normally speak like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
