        That’s what any rich and entitled person would say.

        A former boss of mine who owned his (very large and expensive) house plus three other houses that he rented out, plus 51% stakes in two companies which were both worth at least €10mio each also claimed that he’s “upper middle class” and that the things he feels entitled to are just what regular middle class people are entitled to.

          May I counter that with, what you said is what any up their own arse cunt would say?

          Just because youre boss is a knob, doesnt mean that everyone you meet is a liar. What the utter fuck, dude?

            There’s literally research on this topic that clearly says that most people count themselves as middle-class, no matter if they are part of the top 0.1% or of the bottom 10%.

            This is not made up.

            For example: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/10/survey-31percent-of-millionaires-say-they-are-part-of-the-middle-class.html

            Even among millionaires, only 8% would characterize themselves as wealthy these days.

            Roughly 60% of investors with $1 million or more of investable assets said they are more likely upper middle class, according to a recent Ameriprise Financial survey of more than 3,000 adults.

            Of those making more than $175,000 a year, or roughly the top 10% of tax filers, one-quarter said they were either “very poor,” “poor” or “getting by but things are tight.”

            Even a share of those making more than $500,000 and $1,000,000 said the same.

              Dude, owning a fucking merc doesnt make you middle class. Youre a fucking spoon eating cunt, looking to shit on anyone who says something you dont like. Even if it means making things up about them. “Mercedes driver” doesnt tell you anything about a person, other than the fact they drive a Mercedes.

              Kinda like saying you ride a bike, doesnt automatically make some a prick who cycles in the middle of the road causing traffic issues everywhere they go.

            … you do understand that your rule includes anyone who lives by that rule?

            You just called yourself a biased idiot.

              Jesus fucking christ, you cant even read either.

              You “is”

              Them “probably”

              See the difference? Or shall we break out the special crayons?

                Ok, so a “probably” fixes everything for you?

                Then you are probably a small-ego little-dick biased idiot who thinks that pedantry is a virtue and who thinks that putting “probably” before a sentance makes him a saint.

                Happy now?

                  For knocking down an up your own arse cunt like you, yeah. It works just fine. Youre the one who started being a cunt to that guy for no reason what so ever. So you can take a good long hard suck of my arsehole, if you dont like getting it back.
