“don’t care what hotel I stay in as long as it doesn’t have those roller barn door bathroom doors.”
Barn doors on bathrooms are an evil that must be stopped.

I know, right? Who thought those were a good idea?
OMG so true about the doors. And I have to live with them for the next two months!
I’ve learned one very important thing on this thread… I’d best not travel with most of you!
A certain kind of a clothes snob. I couldn’t care less if what you’re wearing is expensive or designer, but if you’re over 16 and wearing something with a Disney character on it I will judge you.
My friends consider me a wine and beer snob I think. I home brew and like what I brew. If I have to buy it will be craft beer (except for Corona with a wedge of lime). I can’t afford real expensive wine so my tastes gravitate towards food friendly wines from a variety of places but especially Italy and Spain. Cava over Chamapign, a Garnacha over a French Rhone, a Montelpuciano d’Abruzzo over Chianti or Brunello and I’ve developed a love of Barbera and Dolcetta. I can find tasty versions for under $20 and sometimes $10. I like big Cabs and blends but I find the foods they go well with kind of limited.
Yarn snob. Only natural fibers, nicely spun. No project is worth the time if the fiber I’m knitting with is cheap.
I am a snob about folks that are snobby about clothing brands or living anywhere except the coasts. I prefer a wider view of the world.
Travel. I am an anti Disney snob. I have been as a child and can not understand why anyone would go there rather than to a real place with a different culture or natural beauty. (Not a popular opinion, I know.)
Just for all the cleanliness snobs, I read this thread as “What Kind of Slob are You?” and thought finally! a post I can get my teeth into.
Bean snob – can’t do canned. Scratch or IP .
Text snob – if your text is more that 20 lines, it means just call.
On the fence acronym snob – use them (see above) but recently had to look up “mtfbwy” and did so tentatively.
Anyone else particularly mindful before posting after reading about the Grammar Snobs:)?
I am a snob in thinking I am a good evaluator of whether someone will get into certain schools.
@mathmom - and I thought I was the only one who felt this way!!
I’m enough of a NYT crossword snob to not be impressed by early week puzzles - not challenging enough.
I’m a Friday/Saturday puzzler myself…
My mother is a grammar snob. Big time.
My kids call her Grammar Judy.
I don’t think she’s picked up on it.
Haha! I’m late to the game, but I’ll play.
I’m a book club snob. I begin reading my club’s choice in bed, and invariably, by the second page, I tell my husband that “I hate this book already.” I got my degree in Literature, so I only enjoy reading worthy books, haha!
However, the flip side is that when it’s my turn to choose the book, I will almost always go for something that no one EVER wants to read. One of my favorites includes the little-known classic, The Riddle of the Traveling Skull by Harry Keeler. I spent a lot of time trying to find the best so-bad-it’s-good book out there, and this is it.
I’m up next month for book club, and I have asked everyone to read a Harlequin Romance of their choice. We are going to compare the lustiest “love” scenes and see how often Fabio turns up on the cover. :))
I haven’t read through every posting, but I suspect this is a new one: Keyboard snob.
I bought the mechanical keyboard I use at work rather than use the standard choices. I evaluated dozens of mechanical key switch types before finally choosing one, which has a wonderful tactile feel and satisfying click.
I am a total grammar snob! I cringe when I post via phone and find a typo!! Facebook has definitely fed into that. “*You’re” LOL
Well I care about the Kardashians. I have always wanted to find an appropriate place to put up a “No Kardashian Parking Anytime” sign.
Movie snob here, but in my own weird way. There are actors, writers, directors, and genres I’ll forgive for anything, and others I just won’t watch no matter how good the reviews are.
I’m also a mild-to-moderate writing and layout snob. I’m no graphic artist and there’s lots of room for improvement in my own writing. But when I see an ad, website, or solicitation letter that looks like the product of an enthusiastic 7-year-old, I’m out.
