I'm not gonna lie, it's not just the white trash and rednecks that I don't really click with. A disproportionate percentage of minorities are poor, so... yeah. It is what it is. I won't be surprised if I catch some flak for that, but it's nothing personal. If you're brought up in that kind of "poor culture" (if somebody has a better term than that I'm all ears) then chances are we just don't have anything much to say to each other.

It's not about the money. It's the culture you're brought up in. I'm certainly not burning up the social ladder, but my family is still solidly middle class in mindset and so am I. Same thing with whatever you want to call "cool" people. I'm a dork. I generally have nothing much to say to someone who actually cares about wearing name brand clothing.
