Why are the working class innately superior to the middle and upper classes?

Apparently, it's better to be in the working classes. If you're not, you're some sort of fraud.. You're not even a part of the real Cork.

What fucking nonsense. It stinks of inferiority complex.

But what say you?

Hi there,
Funny, as someone from a working class background, I seem to recall a fair bit of bias going the other way: when I attended UCC (yes, they let the likes of me in), I can recall being offended by posters advertising a debate showing a cartoon of a team of anthropologists by the North Main Street meeting a group of apes heading down from the other side of the North Gate Bridge....
Now, I realise that this may have been intended to promote debate, but it was a bit offensive! I mean, it wasn't even FUNNY!

Thats why they wouldnt do it

I was pretty much in the same boat as Corkman but when I went to UCC got on with most people in my class no matter where they were from , didnt really come into it

bar 1 time when a hockey-chick in my class said to me "At least I'm not from the North-side"

to which I responed "At least I'm not a cunt"

I guess we all have our crosses to bare.....

It always interests me to see the contrast between the calibre of car that turns right going out the western road to go off up the "Shanakiel escape", and those that opt to continue out towards Victoria Cross towards the south-western suburbs. It hasn't changed much over the years.

At what point do you cross the line from working class to middle class?

Ballincollig is lower-middle class.
