<![CDATA[do you know how well educated i am?]]>A bad case of superiority complex, maybe! There can only be one thing worse than someone talking loudly on the train ... and that's someone talking loudly on the train about how intelligent they are.


Captured on a cellphone by a fellow passenger on a New York area train is a commuter straight out of the 'do you know who I am?' school.

Talking loudly to a friend, and allegedly using profanities, the woman is told calmly by one of the Metro-North train's conductors to keep the noise down and to stop using swear words.

What! The uptight woman snaps and says: 'I was not cursing, excuse me, do you know what schools I've been to?'

As the conductor tells the other conductor why she asked the woman to be quiet, the woman interrupts: 'I'm sorry, do you think I'm a little hoodlum?'

When the conductor talks about the words coming from the passenger's mouth, the indignant commuter explodes: 'From my mouth? Excuse me? Do you know how well-educated I am?'

At one point she gets up and says: 'Stop the train, stop the train.'

Getting ever more worked up, the woman demands her money back and says she'll never give Metro-North her money ever again. She had already said she takes the train to get to work and back every day.

Finally, as the conductors walk off, one of them says: 'Go to customer service.'

At that point our flustered female delivers her closing line before walking off: 'No do not tell me to go to customer service. I am not a crazy person. I am a very well-educated person.'

A minute later, there was an announcement asking all passengers to please not use profanity on the train, 'especially those people who went to Harvard or Yale or are from Westport.' :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

The original video, uploaded on YouTube on Tuesday, was titled Educated Loudmouth on the Metro North Railroad.

[quote=\"UncleLim\"]The truth is that deep inside such people feel INFERIOR, and have to assert themselves through their job titles, credit card colour or car brand.


Case in point is my personal encounter in Singapore....

Man yelling at service staff: \" I have a platinum card, you know?\"

Really pathetic...


Agree with you about the inferiority complex. Some says,\"You know who my father is?\" :siao:

I would reply,\" As long as you know who he is ...\" 🤷[/quote]
I would reply, 'Your Father not buried underground liao meh?'

Never fail them even more irritated!! :evil:

Never fails to get them more irritated when I say that!!

hmm, after all these postings, I feel more prepared should someone come up to me to flaunt.


Q \"Do you know how well educated I am?\"
A \"I only know how uncultured you are\".

Q \"it's so sad your child is in such an ahem school and mine is in elite school\"
A \"I hope he can maintain his grades to stay in there. Jia you!\"

Q \"woah, mine only get to go home so late everyday\"
A \"Studying or dating?\"

Okay lah, these retorts do sound a bit sour grapes. But I still retain my thoughts....better school does not a better person make.

one former staff of dh married the niece of some minister. everytime the wife called, she only said one word which was her hubby's name. even when my dh picked up the call, it was still the same. likewise when i called, the staff picked up the phone and before i could finished my sentence, he just pressed the transfer call. dh told him off for being rude. but this chap and wife were known to love name dropping who the uncle was. after a while, no one gave a damn cos' the guy has no substance. he was the joke in the market.

Agree with you.
But somehow there is this elite vs non elite stuff going on around us, dun you think so?

ya, we got two types of schools ma, elite type and neighbourhood type. but sometimes neigbourhood school pupils end up in elite schools, problem... very soon, schools will need two types of uniform, elite pupils wear yellow, the rest wear red.[/quote]wapobs, your yellow very Glaring -le!
