HFCS: effika’s blog

I’m elitist. I’m not elitist about anything important, mostly just about what browser to use and what brand of pipette tips I like best. Regardless, the mindset is there and it’s not hard for it to spill over into everything else. I should be pretty desensitized to the elitists around me– we tend to attract them to ourselves, eh?

Oddly enough, today I felt a little bit disgusted watching somebody spout elitist dribble while I was waiting for class. I completely understood why he felt it was the correct thing to say, and felt that it was something I myself might have said. I think I was just upset at who was having to listen. I don’t like it when nice people have to listen to sharp and unfriendly musings, especially when I don’t think the egotistic fool knows enough to give a proper opinion. I don’t like it when I can’t step in and defend the nice person, because the elitist doesn’t think I know enough about what’s going on and doesn’t consider my opinion valid in the matter of their small little uppity world.

Sometimes I feel so cold and unfriendly, and then I shock myself by being upset at the slightest injustice.
