a survey: do i seem posh?

just out of interest.



  • yes miss

    • Not particularly

      but I went to public school so my radar fro such things is rather dull.

    • Does one*

    • never met you so impossible to say

    • well i didn't think you did

      before you found it necessary to ask us about it. i'll always think of you as the posh one from now on.

      • what are we basing this on?

        your profile pic? artist ratings?

        No not unduly so.

        Neither posh nor common.

      • ^ excellent line of thinking

        • Not posh pe'say

          just not common

          • ^ sexy

            • I think you seem about 23% posh

              • You're from north of the Watford Gap

                That means you can't be posh unless you're from Harrogate!

                ;)

              • ^ he started it

              • You're no chris_is_cool

                but you come over as being a bit poosh

              • you can always spot the posh ones

                cos they start surveys about themselves.

              • you aint so bad yourself

              • Oooh yes this ^

                you must be posh, because you're drawing our attention to it.
                You're like the female equivalent of zxcvbnm

                • i think you seem overly judgemental.

                    • do you want to be posh

                      ?

                      • sorry

                      • yay!

                      • not posh

                        just bog standard lower-middle classed

                      • no, zapsta called me posh,

                        and i wanted to find out if it was common thought amongst you lot.

                                    Who exactly called you posh for you to think that?

                                    • Common this, common that

                                      I think the lady does protest too much. Sorry, *doth* protest.
