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

Also to add - having real wisteria trailing over the front of your house easily adds £20-30k to its value. Fab.

The Royal Family. Inbred arriviste Nazis with a taste for paedophilia and philandering.

It's possible to write a valid criticism of the Royal Family and why we don't need a Royal Family without resorting to nonsense like this.

Nobody does it because they think they're being posh. It's so they can walk barefoot in their home on a floor that hasn't had street grime walked into it

Stirring the pot OP, I love it.

• range rovers - particularly with blacked out windows
• perfectly preened lawns / astroturf
• electric gates & tarmac driveways
• flashy open-plan kitchens with the latest range cooker
• platinum jewellery
• tiffany & co.
• overconsumption in general (clothes, food shopping, cars etc)

Those Tiffany heart necklaces.

Loads of presents

Private schools. Signing up for one of these is admitting that your child is too much of a dullard to succeed on merit.

Ooooooo. Low blow.

Nothing good has come out of private schools, I tell yah! 😆

Range rovers
Personalised number plates
Obviously branded clothing or bags
Fake nails
Too much make up
Fake eyelashes

Going abroad on holiday. (Reserving the right to decide arbitrarily that various locations “aren’t really abroad”.)

Mocking people for having out of date opinions is very non-U

What should one say?

Anything that barks with an oodle or a poo in its "breed" name. Either have a labrador, a poodle or a cocker spaniel.

Ascot and Wimbledon

Stunt ingredients 😂

Designer bags / watches / accessories
Horribly tacky and crass.
Outside bar. One of my pet hates, just awful.

Oh, are we U people allowed to be openly cunty about non-U now (as long as we preface it with "lighthearted")?

Traditionally we've kept that kind of talk behind closed doors, but I suppose, now Starmer's in, the proles will be in no danger of rolling out the guillotines for a bit.

Absofuckinglutely

Volco was the old money choice until it stopped selling estate cars, got rid of everything that wasn’t a 4 cylinder engine focused on not at all posh SUVs. To top it all it’s now Chinese. I rather fear there are no proper old school posh cars..indeed, a large German estate is probably the nearest thing you’ll get nowadays. But not in the awful new money bling spec trim with privacy glass thanks.

OMG you just love me. You would faint and get the detol out.

Bugatti's

Spar tea bags

Fairy liquid

Flushing toilets

Toilet paper

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

👏

The Wombles of Wimbledon Common are we?

Or the Wombles of Wimbledon, common are we?

I'll get me coat.
