How posh are you

[vetran]

So why would you laugh?

Because it made me think of you

No, that's not it. It seems that you don't really want to say why you'd laugh. Never mind.

I am suggesting you are members of the hoi polloi who want to be posh

'hoi' already means 'the', so you don't need 'the' before it. But then you'd know that considering how posh you are.

But surely it's in the genative (members of), so it should be των πολλων

1. Upturned collars.

No, that's vampires.

This one IS true, you only have to look at the students at the posher Durham Uni colleges.

10. The jumper-over-the-shoulders look.

It's not a look.

Again, it definitely is. You don't really fit in in the North-East wearing a pink shirt with raised collar, knotted jumper around the neck, and deck shoes, so these people stand out and are pretty common-place during term time. Then they wonder why the locals don't like students.

20. Regattas.

Nobody actually likes regattas.

The river is thronged when we have rowing regattas here.

Full of girls looking at male rowers' bodies and boys looking at female rowers' bodies.

Being sired by a 75 year old, running away with exotic girlfriend from your £30k a year boarding school to hide out in a 5 star carribbean hotel. That's posh.

I bet he's got red trousers.

Loan words are not typically declined for case in English.

Well, clearly this one has been as it isn't in the English language like that...
