Pretty much. Well after we graduated and her mom unfortunately passed away way earlier than she should have, the dad sold their house and had one built on a piece of land somewhere. It looked nice, about the same size as the old one, but it had a beautiful library the kitchen had a viking range. In the grand scheme of…

PDX girl here and laughing at the truth of our Coscto-jeans-Columbia-sportswear elite! As a kid, the kids who wore Columbia rain jackets were clearly the rich kids!

So I gather you were UP! all night? 

This is so savage and I love it! I knew a girl like this in College. She was from old, old, OLD, Upstate New York money. Like, her family probably had money before NY was a state. Her wardrobe consisted of Juicy Couture sweats and Nike Sneakers and she thought she was the authority on fashion. 

One of my friends in high school was the daughter of the guy who owned the toy company that bought and produced/sold the supersoaker.

Hair salons in NY that are trying to stay afloat at lowered capacity while also dealing with the increased costs and stress associated with all of the new state regulations for COVID-19.

And they’re often the oldest of old money.

In my experience, the third type isn’t rich rich. I could always guess a person’s net worth by how they treated sales or wait staff. Medium rich and they were without exception raging don’t-you-know-who-I-am assholes. Very rich and they are almost always polite - maybe not kind or likeable, but not rude, either. And…

This is exactly accurate. The richest people look homeless, why? They have nothing to prove.

100% this. I grew up in the PNW, and while it’s not old money, there’s a lot of very wealthy people out there. All of whom wear Columbia fleeces and jeans from Costco. Then I moved to DC, where I experienced a lot of the white button-up crowd. Both groups look down on your third “white trash” description.

Yes. And there are actually rich republicans that believe in climate change but also vote R because they’re afraid of minorities and they don’t want to pay taxes.

My in-laws have a house in a tiny Florida beach town that has this random ass strip of McMansions. You will see solar panels on top of a house with a Prius…

Oh good, another empowering article about the way women look.

I spent the majority of my life living near a couple of the richest zip codes in the country. Rich people style comes in a few flavors:

Ummmm I appreciate the bare minimum effort to Journalist (Which Is Your Job), I guess

Why are you surprised that receptionists at random hair salons are not wasting their time entertaining a random phone caller’s random questions about extensions at the RNC?

At the college where I teach, a student can ask for an incomplete. If the teacher agrees, they have up to six weeks into the next semester to complete the course to the instructor’s satisfaction.

Nobody wants to fail a student. Absolutely ask for help and more time. 

So, I find the pomodoro technique super helpful for tackling big tasks.  It’s helps me focus and power through.  Just by starting, it takes my anxiety down a notch or two.  

I don’t know- that’s Larry Flint’s publication, right? He’s been a long time proponent of calling out the hypocrisy of the anti-sexual-liberation christian types. He took Jerry Falwell to the supreme court, too.

Sounds like his religion have him entitlement and supremacy. A lot of these Christian men think they’re King David.

Sounds like his religion/upbringing gave him a lot of self-loathing.
