@@ekkieck Rum and gin have an extremely different flavor profile, and it's rum + coca cola + lime juice which makes the drink I'm pretty sure you're referring to.

Back in university, 8 years ago, I tried so hard to fit in with the group of people that got into the same course and semester as me. I remember going to a grill party at one of their houses, beautiful house with a pool in the backyard. Not millionaire rich, but "trips through europe every year or so" rich. Then they start talking about their plans for next month and all the festivals and shows they are going to and ask me if I'd like to join, I ask how much and one girl says "just 400" which was a little under a third of my single mom's salary (this isnt in the US). I said "What, for the trip and everything?" No, that was just for the shows, trip and place to sleep were another thing. When I said I sadly couldn't afford that the same girl made a half-laugh face with one brow up that I will never forget and asked "what are you spending so much money on? Cant even save 400 in two months?". I was so aghast at the time, that these cartoonishly ignorant people were real. There was no use in trying to explain to her the entire systematics of living paycheck-to-paycheck as a single mother, so I just said "Rayanna... I'm poor" and I was never invited to parties with that group again. Glad I walked out of that, one girl in that group just loved to open up and brag to me in particular about this married teacher she fucked in highschool. I never understood why she thought it appropriate to share.

Geeeeeeez, I did not realise how common these sickos actually are. I think of them as the “I’ve never worked a day in my life, but know everything about having a job” crowd. I’ve genuinely had some similar experiences (obviously I’m no single-mother, my heart goes out to you) but when two of my housemates who are both filthy rich - and I am very much not, the last 10 years has been paycheck to paycheck; I travel but I worked all the time during my degree, I saved up a lot and bought flights and accommodation months in advance. But these two rich brats honestly both had the audacity to say to me, “I don’t understand why you need so much” (so much money, even though if they saw my bank account they’d think it was pocket change.) Bearing in mind, both of them have lawyers for parents who own multiple properties. I don’t think these kinds of people realise that there are parts of the world where people earn £1000/month, and less. I also had to explain to these same people why a friend of my mine from Ukraine could not visit the UK despite having a full-time job - nevermind the war, or the cost of a visa or anything else - I genuinely had to spell out that the average wage was only about £400 in that country. Some people are just so completely out of touch with reality (also bragging about probably destroying someone’s marriage and career prospects is absolutely a VERY weird thing to “brag” about.)

@@it-s-a-mystery I’m well aware, and I acknowledge this in my previous comments. Not to mention that I am very acutely aware of the fact that CPTSD and PTSD do incredibly fucked up things to people and the coping mechanisms are not typically “conventional” in a sense. However, this is what investigators are for. I say this because kids lie, and they do not have the ability to fully consider the total outcome of their actions. And these systems do exist for their protection first and foremost - and this is the most important thing for obvious reasons. There’s more legitimate victims of abuse than those who abuse a system - thus educators need to be extremely careful at all times. Having said this, due diligence deserves to be followed in instances where the child is slandering a teacher, especially in cases where the school is trying to abuse the situation further in order to oust a member of staff. These cases are rare, but they happen. This is the main reason why I raised the point in the first place, but we’re also focusing on the wrong part of the OPs comment, IMO.

When I was in college, we had to do a mandatory general studies lesson once a week, and one week the teacher decided to determine what class we all belonged to by using our parents' line of work. And we had to, in front of the class, tell him what our parents did. And when it came round to me and I had to say, due to circumstances beyond my our control, that my mother was on disability benefits and my father was a non-entity I hadn't seen in years his tone became really belittling. That's not even lower class apparently, that's "lowest form of subsistence" and he started talking about how I proved that somebody's upbringing shouldn't be used to hold them back... And I could feel everyone else's eyes upon me like I was some sort of performing monkey. The teacher was heavily implying that a person's capacity to learn from mandatory school attendance is limited severely by the income of their household, and that statistically I should have been as dumb as rocks.

Years later when I went to visit the building again, they still had the art up that I designed for them, which kind of warmed my heart. At my current job, I've gained perks and gotten to meet different high ranking positions by being a constant source of kindness.

I definitely relate to what Josh is saying about being in that place you just aren't quite in tune with. I am a professional in Figure Skating, and there is a "class" of people in the sport who just grew up with a level of wealth I can only dream of... and it's a massive cultural gap, as well as a limiting factor in who you can interact with successfully. When you know some of the elite of the elite in a community, those boundaries between the haves and have nots really starts to show itself, and it can be a lot to learn to deal with and navigate. You definitely get the feeling of that Squidward meme, with him watching Spongebob and Patrick, as you are on the outside looking in, even when your knowledge levels are very similar... you are both professionals doing the job professionally. Ultimately, I think as we grow and mature, most of us realize we really need to hone what it is that we do well, and learn to temper our own unique abilities, while trying to learn to integrate into more groups... but even that can be really tricky with how intricate communities are becoming. Your own personality can be at odds with the prominent feeling in the room at any given time, and that can be a massive chore to keep up with. Sometimes you need to be the example of the person who shows you don't need to be THAT, to enjoy THIS... THIS is for everyone. It's definitely how I feel about my profession... I give that knowledge to anyone who wants to learn, and that is what I can bring to the equation.

They're like anxious teenagers, too afraid to try new things or show their genuine self, instead just blindly copying what everyone else is doing - performing their rigid schedules, and sticking to arbitrary little rules for fear of the least bit of judgement. And since they never take even the smallest step off the beaten path they never really develop or grow as an independent human being, so instead they hide their inner self, and outwardly perform whatever behavior they think their peers will approve of. Though unlike teenagers, they'll likely never have the experience of overcoming a real problem to give them some actual perspective on life and motivate them break out of that loop. These are the people who run our society. Just a bunch of adult infants wandering around posturing about whose dad has the most money.

And what’s more is that if you don’t play that game of “who said what” and “but she said he said” then you’re not fitting in. And I hate that. You have to try so hard to find others who are down to earth and honest because everyone else is so obsessed with being fake as fuck.

I've gotten to do it recently thanks to a regular series of hangouts with old friends. Some stuff just does not work; some absolutely DOES. Here's a tip: Vodka or gin, diet coke, and then one or both of lemon sparkling water and lemon juice. It basically just ends up being a lemon diet coke that is deceptively alcoholic. The acidity does wonders for masking alcohol. And no sugar! The only calories are the alcohol.

I can somewhat relate to Josh’s drink story, because I ordered a ‘Jim (Beam) and Coke’ once, and got Gin and Coke. It was fucking disgusting. Yes, certain things should actually not be mixed together.

Just go all in, humiliate them at their own game; When they order a Bordeaux with sweetbreads make sure to audibly scoff and mutter something about the tannins being too strong to pair with veal. Make sure to insist on tasting the wine after they do, make sure you slurp'n'swill louder than they do - then call the wine corked, even if it's not (if there's no cork you should refuse to drink the wine, and if the cork is reconstituted rather than single-core make sure to off-handedly comment on this fact with some pejorative undertones). You always summer in Bhutan because the Swiss Alps are for normies, and because you are a close friend of the king - and you are always driven around on a rickshaw because you are both environmentally conscientious and too important to pedal yourself. Your large collection of waist-jackets isn't "from Oxfam" - rather it was "previously worn by a long line of distinguished gentlemen, passed down to you through generations" and when they boast about their meagre acting roles, remind them that you are simply "humbly growing your portfolio whilst avoiding mainstream roles that could typecast you". The great thing about rampant pretentiousness is that it can always be outdone, and with absolutely no proof needed beyond your own unwavering confidence.

I've always struggled to make meaningful connections with people. I'm fairly happy with just a close group of trustworthy people in my life. Meeting people for the first time can be draining, and too often, I've felt like I'm putting more effort into maintaining a connection than the other person, so I lose interest. Some people just seem to know everyone, but they can't possibly have a meaningful relationship with them all, yet the connections definitely give them an advantage anyway. I wish I could figure out how that works. I don't really like drinking, but my go-to cocktails for social situations are either rum and Coke or vodka cran.

The first and only time I ordered a gin and tonic at a bar, the bartender noticed how intently I was watching how he was making it, so it said he noticed that and began to explain his process speaking out his actions and why he was doing them. Very observant of him. Great service. Didn't like the tonic part of the gin and tonic though. But in general, I don't order a mixed drink more than once anyway, anywhere because it's so outrageously expensive that I can only justify it if I'm also experimenting for what mixed drinks I want to make at home, but don't want to buy all the big jugs of alcohol just to try it out.

it makes me sad to hear this kind of stories, people do not realize the struggle someone can go through, once i was attending a training course, i work with foreigners teenagers, an exercise was to read a dramatic story on a peaper and try to empathize with the mc, fact is, the story was about an abusive mother and an handicapped father, when they asked me how i felt, i answered "well it's not that hard to imagine, the abusive one was my father tho" and the room frozen for a couple of seconds. The thing is, some of us can't even think about making connections and are just focused about being treated like basic human beings, it took me A LOT of time to deeply understand that lackign food in the house because your parents prefer to buy cigarettes it's not normal and you do not deserve it. I bet i'm not the only one who feels dissociated by coworkers, friends and so on just because for me it's hard to even imagine how being treated like a normal person inside the family looks like.

We were too poor to go on holiday and have the trendy clothes my peers wore (I wore addidas one stripe too many and jumble sale clothes) but too rich to be eligible for benefits and any government assistance. Made me humble but possibly too much so. I write novels and try to make a living on my own terms but cannot bear to thrust it down people throats because of imposter syndrome. I've been with people who have bought an £80 bottle of wine and been appalled. £80 (was) is a weeks groceries to me and I will never forget it. if you have had toast as a meal then you know.

For me, it was when I went to a fancy Chinese restaurant in the capital with my kung fu teacher. I asked if I could 'try' the house red wine (meaning I wanted to buy a glass), but before I knew it they brought a whole wine tasting spread. I just embarrassedly went along with it. Luckily, though bogan I am, I'm atleast a bogan adjacent to a vineyard land, so I could atleast pass off as though I knew wine.

last year I had an experience like this. I've worked hard to rise up in my field of academic study, and not to toot my horn but i'm bloody good at it now, even at a small, northern university. But last year I went to a conference at Cambridge university and I've never felt so out of place. The second I talked up in a pretty thick scouse accent, I could see the looks of disapproval before i'd even got through the first sentence and what I said was immediately treated with condescention despite being accurate. The rest of the conference was an utterly miserable experience.

It's a weird one this. The phase 'It's not who you know, it's who knows you" is very very true these days. But for me the work hard, work consistant and deliver on your promise holds truer in my eyes. I will use myself as an example. I'm currently in Saudi Arabia as of writing this, meeting with some massive companies and conglomerates assisting them with their hiring needs.... and I charge a lot for my services. If they knew who I really really was... they may not even engage with me... and who I really am is .... a 34 year old who plays Warhammer when I get the chance, University dropout, semi alcoholic who likes to game on occasion. I don't feel genuine a lot of the time, but I do feel successful.... which can be a weird combination

It's actually because you needed 2 more points in charisma instead you put them in the hair retention stat which was a good choice but this would have unlocked different dialogue options up with you parents, when you start a new game just put a little less into intelligence and you should have enough. Also is you had picked the 3rd dialogue on your option tree you would have gotten the secret ending.

When I was at university, I did know a guy with a double-barelled name who was due to inherit a baronetcy and some kind of stately home when his dad pops his clogs. Or at least that part of it the National Trust weren't going to end up running, because the granddad thought he was a much better gambler than in fact he was. So, a posh but cash-poor family. Not in any way a twat. I also did briefly meet some people who were towards, and in one case right at, the other end of the spectrum in terms of rich parents and twatitude, though. The kind whose parents bought them a flat (one of them in Park Circus, for fucks sake) rather than have them stay in Halls. Either way, I'm still scum.

I know this isn't the point, but if you're ever in a position where you're ordering a cocktail from a fancy bar off the cuff and don't know what to order, just pick a Corpse Reviver #2. It's classic enough that any full bar can make one, it's classy enough to impress people who care about "refined taste", and it tastes good too: not too sour, not too sweet. I would order them more but most bars in my area don't have fortified wine and absinthe on hand.

I'm a working class Yorkshire-man son of a coal miner who grew up in a council house with a coal fire. Honestly I would find it too cringe to try and hang with anybody well connected and "above my station". If I won 100 million £ I'd still be as common as muck and I have a real disdain for posh, pretentious people spending daddy's money. I've noticed that because I have a Polish surname, people automatically treat me even worse than the commoner I am, they think I'm a migrant here to take their job when In reality - pretty hard to be more of an Englishman than a Yorkshire bloke born in Pontefract, Polish surname or no.

What you're talking about - moving into a different strata/status/class - is code switching. All humans communicate, and there's codes for how groups talk to each other - a way of signifying you're Inside This Group or One Of Us. Picking up the code quickly integrates you into that group faster - you sound like them, so you must be more like them than not. Code switching is being able to swap between them so that you can appear to be in multiple stratas simultaneously. This does depend on your goals and if your sense of self is derived from being in a certain strata.

A really good example of this for me is Gaius Baltar from Battle Star Galactica. In one season, he's put into a jail and drops the personsa we've seen through multiple seasons to let his childhood shine through - it gives instant recognition that his status has changed, and he's chosen to change it as well, to further his goals. His rebellious manifesto suddenly hits harder because he's from a lower, working class position rather than his usual high class, elbow rubbing with academics and politicans self.

Can confirm. After hearing your story. I got a Mexican Coke and mixed it with two ounces of Aviation Gin and it's actually pretty good. The juniper is doing this great blend with the coke that ends up being quite a pleasant drink. My wife, who virtually can't drink anything with alcohol in it because it disgust her, says that she could drink it and that it would be dangerous because she could see herself getting drunk off of it without realizing it.
