Are you an elitist?

<p>Hell. Yes.</p>

<p>Yes, and to a greater extent since joining CC.</p>

<p>I laugh at poor people.</p>

<p>

Red Alert vs. Dr. Strangelove?
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? vs. Blade Runner?
Psycho(Robert Bloch) vs. Psycho (Alfred Hitchcock)?
The Verdict (Barry Reed) vs. The Verdict (Sidney Lumet)?</p>

<p>Of course the book is always better.
And I didn’t even mention the Godfather
I’m elitist about people who think that books are inherently better than movies.</p>

<p>I consider myself an elitist, but not so much in regards to academics or intellect. The thing is, only one person in my school has gone out of state to a selective college in recent years. That was last year and she went to Amherst. I’m going to Northwestern next year, which is considered a big deal at my school. </p>

<p>The elitist part isn’t that I was smart enough to go, because many kids at my school were capable of going. The difference is that I made the terrifying decision to go out of state, when my classmates are taking the traditional route to our state’s schools. (Which, admittedly, are kind of awesome.) I guess I’m proud of making the uncommon, scarier choice, and I like the attention I’ve gotten for it in my town. I’m afraid it’s gone to my head, and I’m a tad arrogant too.</p>
