Snobby? Maybe, maybe not. If any aspect of Austin (my hometown) is going to land it on such a list, it should be due to the racist/classist attitudes, it should be due to the fact that governmental bodies continue with prejudicial practices of making sure the "haves" have more and the "have nots" have less.
That and that alone is perfect reason for being on a list of snobby cities.. I can think of a better list: Top Ten Racist Cities!

About Me
- LadyoftheM
- Native Austinite. Well educated.. always learning in my own way. Strong-willed & opinionated. I believe in making a difference. I believe in making myself a better person.. in my own eyes, not the eyes of society.
Mainstream society, and the social mores it professes to hold as "normal," "average," etc. are all hogwash as far as I'm concerned. I am very much a "trail blazer" and I live my life that way.
If you want to know more.. ask me :)
to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best day and night to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting. - e.e. cummings
