<p>OK…enough of the morning munching…it’s time for a TEST! For the OP, this might be a helpful assessment and coaching tool before you send your dd out into the world, including tips on how to best interact with doormen (and plumbers too!)

<p>What was your score, toneranger???</p>
<p>I’m a “slight snob”. The question about someone wearing a really bad outfit did me in…yes, I might laugh internally. I just love what people choose to wear. Like when ladies choose to wear sequinned cocktail dresses to work…they either didn’t go home last night, or else they’ve never noticed that no one else wears sequins to work, or else they have noticed and think that there *should *be sequins at work…I just love the psychology of it all.</p>
<p>Sorry, wjb!</p>
<p>I’m kind of sorry I wrote about food; I’ve got someone working on the house (inside), so don’t want to pull food out in front of him, but I’m starving now, and thinking of omelettes!!</p>
<p>MP - I was also rated a “slight snob” - huh- and yes the clothing question did me in too. Of COURSE, I would notice. Character flaw I guess…I can’t help but comment on some of Michele’s clothing choices too - not really snobby - just fun.</p>
<p>Oh drat – I don’t even register on the snob scale. Guess I’ll never meet OP’s D. </p>
<p>Bring on the (Dunkin) donuts.</p>
<p>Oh, crud; now I want a doughnut! Thanks a lot, CBB!</p>
<p>The key question: How did you respond to the “what do you think of people who didnt go to college” question. And wasnt there another one similar to that about intelligence???</p>
<p>I watched the video with the OP’s D in it, and she
seems like a lovely girl, not the snob type at all. I have a feeling that the OP is trying to mold her D into something that D is unware of. Awhile back when OP was making list’s for potential colleges, she put Harvard as HER choice for D!</p>
<p>But I could be completely off base for I am just a …what was that term Soozievt used, oh, “poor schlug”. Yep, that’s me.</p>
<p>BTW, I love the picture of the lady with the sunglasses and scarf at the top of the quiz.</p>
<p>I got a “4” - slightly snobby (same feeling about noticing a bad outfit but keeping it to myself). I did chuckle about the choice of responses on the “didnt go to college” question-- where one choice was “they can always take out a loan and go back to college”. Many of the the cc crowd would probably not select that option. Take out loans? No way. LOL</p>
<p>What video are you referring to, GA2012MOM?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Is it really snobby to know that you’re smart? I am very aware that I have the good job that I have today solely because I am smart…not due to money, or family connections, or looks, or athletic ability, or a prestigious education…I’d get a zero in all of those categories. Back when I was applying for jobs, we all put our pictures on our resumes…there I was in my little man suit with my little bow tie and my hair in a bun…I always think that the firm that hired me must have looked at the picture and said, “Hire her. Someone this dorky has got to be smart.”</p>
<p>I know I can’t be a snob as I don’t see a doorman on a regular basis.</p>
<p>Ever the climber, I do love a good scone. But also doughnut holes. Alas, you can take the girl off of the farm …</p>
<p><em>in a sing-songy voice</em></p>
<p>missypie wears a little man suit!</p>
<p>There, I said it out loud instead of laughed to myself. Maybe I CAN be a snob! :D</p>
<p>I got a 15, can I hob nob now?</p>
<p>(O.K., I admit, I cheated. I gave them the answers I thought they wanted to hear. But I am very upset I did not get a perfect 16. If I re-test, do I get to report only my highest score? What if I come from an URCC*?) </p>
<p>*Under Represented Country Club</p>
<p>Donuts…</p>
<p>So stinky boy (at hob nob school) runs a race every year and decides he wants to drag his hob nob school buddies with. He drags some on his many adventures. I am sure their parents are lovin’ the education he is giving them!</p>
<p>It’s the Krispy Kreme Challenge:</p>
<p>[Krispy</a> Kreme Challenge - ESPN Video - ESPN](<a href=“http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/video/clip?id=4025177&categoryid=null]Krispy”>http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/video/clip?id=4025177&categoryid=null)</p>
<p>Goal run 2.5 miles, eat a dozen doughnuts with only water and THEN run back 2.5 miles.</p>
<p>Race had 5300+ entrants this year and stinky boy’s goal was to be in the top 100 times- and HE DID IT. Without seizing or barfing or cramping…</p>
<p>Now he wasn’t the fastest in the running, but he was one of the fastest in eating and swallowing and keeping down all those donuts.</p>
<p>And he owes it all to that fun eatin’ club he belongs to! Just think if OP’s daughter attends she can participate in such upscale, culture-aware charity fund raisers…barf and all!</p>
<p>Kat
and he eats each one at a time, cuz anything else is cheatin’!!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Alas, the little man suits were retired some time ago…hence the demise of stores like Mark Shale and Harolds that never quite got over the fact that even the “more mature” ladies don’t wear them anymore. But here’s a fine bit of snobbery: I love the thought that I am a partner and I just dare anyone to comment on what I’m wearing…I truly wear whatever I want. (Of course, I’m still a very conservative dresser, so no one would ever comment anyway…)</p>
<p>There’s a race for doughnuts?!?!?!</p>
<p>(Wishes the handyman’s truck didn’t have her car blocked in the driveway; would like to race to Dunkin’!)</p>
<p>If snob is important don’t go to any you named, pick a small conservative LAC the people have bought there way into. Clearly you have not looked at the student profiles of the schools you listed.</p>
<p>There was a time when I used to make scones on Saturday mornings. So good! But I guess that doesn’t make me a snob unless “the help” makes them for me on Saturday mornings.</p>
