People Explain Which Things They Are A Complete Snob About

I love to read and I love films and filmmaking. You best believe I still collect physical media –– it's fantastic. I like actually owning something I'm passionate about, for starters. And as a big movie buff, not everything is available online or via streaming services!

I probably would find myself right at home in the mind of Redditor BobcatBuckeye, who asked the online community, "What are you a snob about?"

it turns out there's plenty, and people have their reasons. Read on!


"I don't understand..."

I don't understand how people can't tell the difference between aspect ratios and just sit through the whole movie with it wrong.

"If your bathroom..."

Bathrooms. If your bathroom is disgusting we cannot be friends.

"It doesn't have to be expensive..."

Coffee. It doesn't have to be expensive stuff but my god you can taste when it's cheap.

"Not at all."

Interior design. No vertical blinds. No toilet seat/tank covers. No pedestrian "Live. Laugh. Love." signs. No builder-grade anything. It doesn't have to be expensive. Not at all. But it has to be thoughtful.

"I'd rather..."

Sushi. I don't want a "good deal" on sushi. That actually terrifies me. I like top quality fish. I'd rather eat sushi less than go to a bargain restaurant.

"Wearing clothes..."

Wearing clothes where I am an advertisement. Sorry Old Navy and Abercrombie.

"I pride myself..."

I pride myself on my ability to cook a damn good steak. I have completely stopped eating steaks at restaurants because every time I do I think "I could have done better and it would have cost half as much."

"I once made an impassioned speech..."

Penguins at Christmas time. Penguins live in Antarctica, people! I can accept the whole flying reindeer and Santa crap, but including penguins is just crossing a line. It makes no sense!

I once made an impassioned speech about this at the office Christmas party, and now I get penguin themed gifts, cards, and wrapping paper at every opportunity.

"I will drink..."

Tea. I prefer to drink loose leaf tea. Unsweet if it's a pure tea, lightly sweetened if it's a flavored tea.

I will never drink tea from tea bags.

I will drink brewed unsweet tea from restaurants if it's the only non-soda option. If they accidentally give me sweet tea, I'll drink it because it's not worth complaining, but I really prefer unsweet.

I will NEVER drink tea from McDonalds, as they burn their tea then add too much sugar to hide the burnt taste.

"I would never willingly..."

Restaurants. I would never willingly go to an Applebees or Olive Garden. I like trying new places to eat and am not afraid of spending money. It's like a hobby.

Video Of Little Boy Sobbing After Finding Out Trump Is A Real Person Goes Viral—And We Totally Get It

Whether it was Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, or some other important facet of childhood, most of us found out when we were kids that something we loved did not exist, and it was absolutely devastating and world-changing.

But imagine there being something that you deeply disliked or feared, only for you to find out that it actually exists on the same plane and in the same timeline as you.

Woman Stunned After Best Friend Of 23 Years Ends Friendship Over Her 'Mom Shorts'

We will all have friends who come into our lives for a reason, for a season, or for a lifetime. There are those situational friendships, like from work or school, that dissolve when we exit that space, and there are friendships that might form from knowing the same people.

Then there are those tried-and-true friendships that we think will truly stand the test of time—but even those sometimes fracture under pressure. And sometimes for the most ridiculous reasons.

MAGA Fumes Over Fox Gun Control Talk

The nation is reeling after yesterday’s mass shooting at Annunciation Church in Minneapolis, where a gunman opened fire during a Catholic school Mass, killing two children and injuring more than a dozen others. The tragedy has not only shaken the community but also reignited the national debate over guns in America—this time sparked by an unlikely voice.

Former Republican congressman and Fox News host of Sunday Night in America, Trey Gowdy—long seen as a staunch defender of gun rights and a past recipient of National Rifle Association contributions—surprised many of his own allies when he called for a national reckoning on firearms access.
