What does it mean to be snobby?

Being snobby is so insidious it is viewed as entertainment on reality TV. We inherently know what it means, but could you define it? Do you know when you are being snobby?

 

Those are some of the questions I asked today’s panel.

 

Fallon Siniscarco took the first crack at defining it, suggesting that is has to do with thinking you are better than someone else. And even more, that you have a superiority over them.

 

Rick Alcantara agreed, adding in that snobbiness also has something to do with cliques; who is in, who is out and looking down on people.

 

We didn’t mention it in the conversation but listening back to it, I feel like there is a sense of entitlement that goes with being snobby. As we did say, “I am special and you are not.”

 

What does “snobby” mean to you? What behaviors would cause you to think someone was being snobby?
