But it is kinda funny to hear all the stereotypes about spoiled rich pricks judging the world from their posh subdivisions who have no clue what it's like outside their sheltered lives. Especially considering this spoiled rich prick doesn't have a penny to his name that he didn't earn, came from small town America but worked his way out of it, and has worked construction, waited tables, lost my job during a recession, paid my own way through law school, and so on; my neighbors are straight off the boat from Ecuador but are a self-made doctor and engineer; my other neighbors are a school teacher and woman who was first in her family to graduate college who started her own company; and most in my neighborhood are similar.

You'll find a lot of that in areas that are stereotyped as "rich prick" neighborhoods although you'll find some bona fide rich pricks too. Just like if you go to downstate Virginia you'll find a Joey Wahoo for every Tom Kazanski, but you better believe you'll find both.

Anyhow this whole thread has me shaking my head but I did learn a few things. If anything that making fun of dickheads like Kazanski might rub decent people the wrong way, and that the internet is full of histrionics, stupidity and stubbornness but its always good to remember there's a human on the other end.

I think KCHoo hit the nail on the head and wins a gold star -- his posts were probably the only balanced and inoffensive posts in the whole thing (although I respect Joey and get that he's just venting -- he's allowed to do that and know enough about him to know he's a great man).
