Living in the Ghetto

Anyone experience the same correlation? I have more respect for the ghetto, because the people here are more personable. The struggle is real out here and I feel as if there is a sense of unity out here sometimes.

What do you think?

I'm an European immigrant to the UK from a family who've never had higher education and for many years before my time lived in a one room flat because they were so poor, so you don't really get much lower on the class system than that.

But since I've been at a pretty high ranking (dare I say even "elite") university mixing with the toffs and middle class kids? You're half right.

The middle class ones who want to be seen as all that and aspire to be upper class are dicks who think they're better than everyone else
.
The real upper class ones (Hello, I'm Vicount DeFancypants the 16th) are actually pretty decent and polite people, or at least they've always been to me, albit not as much as are the so called "working class" (though that said I don't see many of those here)

Middle class Jones's really are two faced and not all that freindly, but when you're reliant upon other people...Yeah, you've gotta try harder not to piss off or belittle them.
