Not to know what is middle class

[Goldchilled7up]

Inspired by another thread in chat, what does middle class mean to you?

I seriously don't know. Aibu?

I think it is a bit sad if people are genuinely choosing things like musical tastes and size of tv based on what class they think they belong to.

Can we play bingo?

Waitrose

Boden

National trust properties

Anymore for anymore?

I have 3proper 4x4's in bits on my drive.

If you have to, or have to rely on someone else to work you're working class!

I think 4x4s are a bit of a red herring (and I had a Chelsea tractor so have nothing against them), as really people from every class go for them, from Wayne Rooney to the queen!

4x4 is not the mc car, its an aldi estate

well it is very popular around here

long standing middle classes don't have 4 x4, and don't dress the kids in Boden
that's right, they have filthy old estate cars and scruffy kids with snot on their faces and shout 'what?'

lol FGS

"That's like saying you don't believe in
cheese. Or Manchester."

This made me spray coffee across my living room!

An aldi estate? Do Lidl do one too?

Blingy new cars are a dubious indicator I'd say. The older the car, the higher the so called 'class' IME.

living room? now that's mc
i hope it was cafetiere

Actually nelly you are right- people who have money, and are I suppose upper middle class do not give a stuff about image and other middle class badges!!

sorry x post with Nelly...

meow cat, please note I didn't claim to have the answer and considering I've worked in factories, ware-houses, call-centres and retail prior to training as a teacher, then by my own description I have moved between classes.

Class may be outdated and may be perceived as prejudice but to claim we live in a classless society is just plain wrong.

Lol at 'aldi' estate.

Aldi is quite MC though.

Lidl is middle-class IMO. Tesco is working-class.

Having a shiny new range rover sport, designer hand bag and kids in Boden immediately marks you out as being a bit new money at my daughters prep school. And actually the mums like that are the most snobby and least friendly. Sorry if that offends but it's true.

Proper mc folk look like tramps ime.

Green. Yup.

And 'farmers' markets' and delis etc too try-hard / pretentious. A carrot is a carrot.

Sainsburys is MC.

opps

audi....

must have been thinking of my shopping list

ninah it was! Have now mopped up most of it while DH giggled at me

A cowboy walks into a German car showroom:

"Audi"

(Nothing to do with class, just tickled me)

haha lol
here, let me seduce you with a garibaldi, don't go!
