Supposedly ’posh’ things you think are common *trigger warning this is light hearted*

[ReadingWorm]

Obviously lighthearted and no need to explain your rational. But what are things that some people consider high end/ posh/ classy/ aspirational (I know they are not necessarily the same thing) that you don’t like/ think are tacky/ common / etc.

Again this is light hearted. We can complain but we must never explain!!!!!!

Here is my list.

Molton Brown hand wash
M&S food shop
American Style Fridges
Having a tan
Talking about exercising
Beauty Advent Calendars
Designer toasters and kettles
House of Fraser department stores
Posting photos from 1st class travel on instagram
Referring to your car by its brand name
Talking about your ‘forever home’
Shopping in Space NK
Visiting Disney World
Listening to Classic FM

Chandeliers!

Well if nothing more comes of this thread , at least everyone will know where their local miller and carter is

increasingly Farrow and Ball paint

Nicky Haslem is a man btw

Hotel Chocolate
Sonos music stuff
Harrods

😂

It’s a man innit? 🤔

I had the best plum I've ever had in Lancaster. It was completely perfect.

Pandora
Range Rovers (especially white ones)
Dubai
Children wearing clothes with designer labels

Balloon arches

I haven't read all the thread but I am yet to see anything that I would actually call posh in the first place

Unless you mean Ferrari's or mansions

Are hot tubs or fake tan ever posh?

Speak for yourself. I'd gladly wear a pair of pants I dropped on the way to the car. Brush any gravel off - they're fine. I'm not going to imbibe a deadly illness through my bum cheeks.

Mmm, a strange choice of car to sneer at isn't it.

DH hit a piece of metal in the road at 60mph. It took out two tyres immediately, despite that he was able to manoeuvre to the side of the dual carriageway. When the police arrived they said it was a good job he was driving a Merc as it probably saved his life.

So common

Ah, a man Nicky. Well there you go. MAle designers in my experience often think they are classy, but they aren't really.

I have a S__G kettle.

Used to be designer but a couple of the letters fell off. 🤷🏻‍♀️

He's 84 & was being ironic

What a ridiculous generalisation. Bit of jealousy there I think.

Well there you go.

Does it make a difference that he is 84?

Not really, he's always been a bit like that

@Gloriiaa

I would naturally say The kitchen, the lounge etc. but just didn't understand your point when
presented like that. My mind went to the usual MN 'why is it the woman's kitchen??'...

Pergolas with fake wisteria

But then central Europeans would always eat gateaux with a pastry fork. A spoon is either too large or too small.

Sounds fab @m00rfarm !
