Slobs Versus Snobs: Difference between revisions

*This was actually pretty [[Serious Business]] in the ethnic/political/religious striving in Seventeenth century Britain. The High Anglicans, and Catholics were on the "snob" side while the dissenters on the slob side. The former favored more church pagentry and the later less (hint "high church" people like [[Incredibly Lame Pun|high buildings]] and "low church" ones like low ones). It also included the [[Old Money]] on the snob side, the [[New Money]] on the slob side. As well as the farmers on the snob side and the towns folk on the slob side (apparently going with whomever was the big dog on their particular turf) and thus directly related to old money vs new money). The Celts had more chance of being snobs and the English of being slobs (though part of that may have been the conquered taking an opportunity to gang up on the conqueror while he was busy). Finally the King was on the snob side and the Parliament on the slob side. In those days of course both were equally snobbish, however as Parliament drew apart in more democratic days and even then had the Commons it fits if you squeeze it.
