It's the case for all post-communist nations. They wallowed in poverty for so long that they now believe only the amount of money defines a man's worth.

I was only responding to Spellus's claim how several people in this thread earn more money than me. I did not start this.

Really? What exactly would you call it when you started calling people lower class? :huh:

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Class is not (only) about money.  :huh:

Yes, but you come up deficient in this department.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

It is kind of sad that Marty fall back on income as the measure of a man.

Agreed. We all know it is determined by how many tank divisions he commands.

I figured he'd measure it by how many boy toes he can jam into his mouth without passing out.

Are you suggesting Marty has a big mouth?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Then what is your claim to being upper middle class? :hmm:

I assumed that was what you are talking about.  I have no idea how you are upper class by any metric other than raw income.

His sense of entitlement, his looking down on anyone he views as "inferior", his sense of being cultured and worldly, his disdain for religion, his general snobbery, etc.  He's playing at being an 18th or 19th aristocrat.  Let's just hope he doesn't think he has a Liberum Veto in regards to anything.
"Everything that brought you here -- all the things that made you a prisoner of past sins -- they are gone. Forever and for good. So let the past go... and live."

I think it's safe to say that there's not a lot of class on languish.

I used to post on Languish while in class.
