What should I NOT do in front of rich people?

Diminish yourself or your self worth

Rich people don’t care how you eat your pizza. Stuck up people do, but you get plenty of those without money.

The trick is to not care, and to confidently do it like it was the most natural thing in the world, and it clearly was.

The world of the wealthy runs on appearances. The worst thing you can do there is to be ashamed. Arguably better is to look at them with confident disdain for using a knife and fork to eat a pizza, in much the same way that they might for someone using a soup spoon for dessert.

For the pizza, it’s arguably more regional than wealth related. In a few countries, like parts of Italy and Sweden, it’s more common to eat pizza using cutlery rather than using your hands.

Whereas for other places, like other parts of Italy, it may be more common to use your hands for it instead. It very much depends on where, and the local culture more than anything else. But using your hands is as valid as using a knife and fork.

Why worry about the opinions of people who eat pizza with a fork‽

You do not need to impress the clods who eat pizza with flatware. These people would eat a sandwich with flatware if someone “more important” did it.

Don’t worry about it. Anyone that eats pizza with a knife and fork is a fucking idiot.

Act like they’re your superiors. They bleed and die just like poor people

Don’t be embarrassed or insecure. They probably envy you, getting to dig in with your hands.

Zerosophisto. . . Sophistication robs the world of culture. There is no “supposed to be like” in an adult world where you are not harming others with the choices you make. There is (and should not be) just one way to “be”. Some rich people feel like they have it all figured out because they have money. Money does not equal happiness. Do what makes you happy and move through the world with grace.

Next time, laugh in their fucking face while you scarf down a whole pie. They aren’t better than you, in any way. 99.99% chance they’re just luckier (which could always change).

I swear I looked like a bum when I grabbed a slice of pizza with my hands

I used to eat pizza with chopsticks lmfao.

I remember eating pizza with the spork thingy in school and I feel like a fucking weirdo lmfao.

As for the question: Make sure you DO NOT FORGET TO

🎵 SHIT ON THE FLOOR 🎵

RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM

THEN THROW THE SHIT AT THEIR FACE

And make sure it get it on livestream, it’ll become the most famous video of the 21st century

I was in the Denver Art Museum riding the elevator down and shared the car with a guy who looked like he made $200k a year and his bitchy wife. She gave me the stinkeye while glaring at me while I chatted with her husband. I just squared up and gave her mid handbag and shoes a quick once over before shaking my head.

Shit, my boots cost more than her handbag and my watch probably costs as much as her shoes. Who cares if I’m in hiking boots and some old Polo long sleeve.

Bitch, art is for everyone. I know I’m working class but at least I buy shit that will last and is actually useful.

So I definitely recommend you do stuff like that.

Oh, he was definitely wearing a Rolex, but her handbag wasn’t even CC

Honestly, just take a moment to feel whatever embarassment you feel about this event and accept that it happened. You can’t do anything about it now, except learn from it.

I would say, in general, when you are in unfamiliar company you should just keep an eye on whatever everyone else is doing and follow their lead.

you should probably not hock-up a nice big loogie, then swish it around your mouth for a minute like you’re at a fine wine tasting event, then swallow it in one big, noisy GULP.

The decorative nooses the men have around their necks are not for pulling. Usually.
