What percentage of the British public are working, middle and upper class? 

 

Statistically speaking there must be a sizeable number of middle class folk on this forum

 

Heard on the radio yesterday that nearly 60% of people consider themselves middle class.

 

We're odd as a country in that loads of people want to pretend to be more middle class than they are, and loads of others want to pretend to be more working class than they are.

 

We don't have any traditional working class jobs any more which makes it harder, I guess. Dave in Carphone Warehouse has an Audi on tick and he reckons he's now middle class. Despite the fact if he wasn't paid for a month he'd be living under a bridge giving handjobs for a tenner. Whilst Oliver, whose Dad owns half of Hertfordshire, is putting on a fake regional accent and pretending his town was full of gangsters when he was a kid.

The Sloane Ranger middle classes

See the poor as all work shy arses

They like to down

With a sneer and a frown

And read about benefit grasses

 

 

If you can make those three rhyme then you're definitely a southern, middle class, shandy swigging ponce.

So does John 


It’s not a jacket, it’s a coat. And my facial hair is pure ginger. Not a speck of grey on there.

The Middle Classes...

 

I hate the Middle Classes.

The way they recycle with a nod to their crowd.

As though a plastic tofu box has saved the earth for all. 

 

I hate the Middle Classes.

The way they vote to the left with a sense of righteousness.

As though choosing equality confirms some misguided superiority. 

 

I hate the Middle Classes.

The way they speak with a tone of the disingenuous.

As though they’re tolerating you behind a mask of derision. 

 

I hate the Middle Classes. 

The way they mate, procreate and communicate. 

As though they’re members of some sacred old world order. 

 

I hate the Middle Classes.

The way they move through life like sheep driving Volvos. 

As though waiting for death is the only way to really live. 

 

I hate the Middle Classes.

The way they’re party to a system that keeps them down.

As though ‘middle’ is a rung on some ladder of perceived achievement. 

 

I hate the Middle Classes.

The way I was born into their sensible shoe masses.

As though I’m supposed to be like them and not like me. 

 

Not even reading that, just reached straight for the neg button. Keep the blog off the forum, it’s an unwritten contract you signed up to.

Where would this bridge be? Just out of interest.

They're ferral when hunting for bargains. When working class people it's a case of "it'd be nice to get something cheap", when middle class people do it it's Knights Templar sacking Jerusalem type shit.

 

Just been in card factory in Allerton and it was a maelstrom of fur hats and pure aggression.

Clinton's is where you need to be rich, three grand for a card. You know somewhere is a rip off when they have codes instead of prices. If Red Phoneix wants to talk conspiracies I could well believe the Clintons own Clinton's, backed by the build a bear group.

My dad had a newsagent when I was a kid. The mark up on cards is astonishing. About 90%. Soft Porn is the same. No price sensitivity from buyers particularly in the pre pornhub days.  The other thing with 1980s soft porn mags was that they reused the same images year after year so eventually you were probably knocking one out to an image of a model who had subsequently died of a drug overdose.
