What's the worst kind of snob? (1 Viewer)

[peaces]

See this system here? This is Hi-Fi... high fidelity. What that means is that it's the highest quality fidelity.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I'm generally a sports snob, definitely a baseball snob in all cases. I don't apologize for it. Italian food snob also. 

 

[Uwe Blab]

Anti-Bloodhound snobs in the Furry Community.  I mean, jfc, I'm supposed to sniff butts as a greeting...I'm a freaking Bloodhound.  Get off your high-horse, Mr. Badger.

 

[MarvinTScamper]

Of course you do.

I don't own any though.  It's fun to hear it though, since it was the only thing out there when I started listening.   Well, 8 track and reel to reel.  If you want to talk vinyl snobs on steroids, it's the reel to reel people.

[Thunderlips]

Almost any "taste" snob is a bit of a #####...beer snobs are probably the worst though.

How about pizza snobs?

 

[CurlyNight]

The human type..

 

[Mr. Ected]

Fitness Snobs make you feel worse about yourself just by looking at them, and then are more likely to sneer at your less than perfect lifestyle.

Ha - I bet you are fat - loser!

And...? (Not that bad actually, just need to lose some...like most!!)

How about pizza snobs?

This is a good one, tacos fall into the same category. Both are fungible, elastically priced junk foods.

 

[squistion]

How about pizza snobs?

Do you mean like with certain toppings or the type of pizza or pizza itself?

 

[Snoopy]

I voted food as more specifically, steak snobs as steak seems to make otherwise normal people snobbish.

I actually thought that was kind of funny. 

As far as snobs go, I would reiterate that experts with a lack of self-awareness that they don't know everything under the sun about a topic and are willing to listen to more laymen-esque people are refreshing as anything.  

As far as other snobs go, I noticed some baseball snobs. I remember when baseball snobs were arguing strikeouts were good outs; now we're arguing contact rates as a positive trait. There's a LOT of wiggle room even within categories. 

Here's what I'm trying to say: Pretend all you know is that you know nothing and you will always be advancing the dialectic on everything.

Other - religion snobs. The type that won't engage in a conversation or think for a minute that there might be something greater than ourselves.  Or be willing to discuss the possibility that there isn't anything else.  You don't have to believe either way, just discuss without getting upset or resorting to insults.

So do you think there are ghost snobs and Bigfoot snobs?

 

[MarvinTScamper]

definitely ghost and Bigfoot snobs.  Christ, roknrol is a anti tax snob.

haven't encountered those yet.

Boat snob and it's not even ####### close.  These mother####ers...

[Zegras11]

bewb snob.  I like them, I love them, can't get enough of them.

 

[MarvinTScamper]

@Joe Bryant 

He's more of down the middle boat company. 

 

[RokNRole]

People who drink that think alcohol isn't a drug and think they are better than people who use other drugs recreationally.

 

[Adam West]

Rush fans.

I've seen them over 30 times. Whenever they play "Tom Sawyer", that's when I go use the bathroom or get a beer. That song isn't for the REAL fans.

 

[Brony]

Food snobs, esp the organic anti - GMO, grass fed, wild caught BS ones.

I saw a story, probably on Reddit, written by a cashier at Whole Foods.  Some wackadoo customer would insist that they key in every code instead of using the scanner because he didn't want "lasers touching his food".

guilty as charged  (but i know alcohol is a MFer ... however, it's fun to look down me nose at tripping hippie jagoffs)

that ####### "Trees" song can go eat a bag of Richards  :X

Well now I stand corrected on their intellect

Certain toppings.

 

[chet]

British people who think their #### doesn't stink and that they're better than everyone else because of their accent even though their biggest accomplishment was being popped out of the right #####.  Want to see someone immediately judged?  Take a random Brit and plop him into a room of Eton #######s and Sloaney Ponies and watch them figure out how much beneath them s/he is in their opinion simply because of their accent.

[msommer]

tobacco Nazis & reformed smokers who wanna rip yer teef out and hang ya on a rack for enjoying a Marlboro RED

please GFYs  

Do your polluting in your own home away from my lungs. TIA

Yeah. We are air snobs. 

 

 

[msommer]

The shame I get here at the brewery for being a Wheat beer drinker is kinda funny to me.   

I'm a beer snob. But nothing wrong with a well crafted wheat beer.

Industrial piss beer must die.

May craft wheat live long and prosper

(Full disclosure: My next beer is my first attempt at a Witbier - so I may change my opinion radically over the next month or so)

 

[Dedfin]

I didn't realize it until now, but "assassination art" snobs are a little over the top to me.

 

[otb_lifer]

hopefully you are in the Kew Gardens area today - looks like a three packer is on tap  . #smokedawg4lifeyo

Nope, in lovely Elsinore, as a matter of fact. Enjoy your lungs while you have them

still have plenty of air - do a couple miles running five mornings a week   followed by rigorous cardio. 

tell ya what, i will exhale in the wind direction opposite of lovely Elsinore - have a great one 

 

[MattFancy]

It's tie for me between food and beer. Just eat/drink whatever makes you happy.

You too. You may not have so many left

 

[Peyton Marino]

As critical as I am at times, I see very little class snobbery in here.  That's just not correct.  Is it because I make fun of Squissy working at Arby's?  Well then, yes...it's all my fault. 

Is this a thing?

 

[NREC34]

I thought cigarette guy was shtick, guess not.   

 

[msommer]

Is this a thing?

Technically it is DD's thing....

 

[Self Important Snob]

you're all doing this wrong.

 

[cheese]

What's the best kind of snob? Stands to reason if there's a worst, then there's also a best. 

Most beer snobs I know will spend unlimited time and money acquiring beers that are awesome/rare and then can't wait to give it to you so you can agree how great it is. So I lean towards the snob that does all the work then gives me free beer as being the best.

I think you are right in a general sense.  Any of the "rising tide lifts all boats" types of snobs are great.  Coffee snobs and beer snobs fit into this category.  I think if it weren't for coffee and beer enthusiasts evangelizing this passion, then we may not be so luck to have good coffee and beer nearly everywhere in the USA, and instead drink folgers and budweiser forever, which would suck.

 

[otb_lifer]

You too. You may not have so many left

how many of us know if we do?

my guess as to my life expectancy is as good as your guess pertaining to yours. 

 

[El Floppo]

anti snob-snobs are the worst.

I don't know anything about anything and I hate that somebody else does... wah,wah,wah

 

[RokNRole]

think?  No.

Whom?

good coffee and good beer have always existed - if folk didn't have the wherewithal to unearth the treasures themselves, then they deserve Bud and Folgers.
