I know, you don't watch TV.

Nothing wrong with that.
I don't watch TV, I don't smoke. I don't play cards. I don't dance. I don't gamble. I don't wear women's clothes. I don't play tennis I don't go to the movies and I don't have a cell phone. Otherwise I'm just like everyone else.
Good grief... what do you do for fun?

That's pretty crazy. Nothing in Onaway is worth 1.3 million.

What exactly defines a working class person in your eyes.. and don’t give me platitudes about being in a union... what really marks a person as working class? How do I differentiate between a member of the working class and a Luddite?

My guess is that you’ve constructed some sort of definition on your own but I want to hear your vision of what defines that and how it contrasts with the middle class. Please be detailed.

A working class person doesn't own a Grey Poupon. Wouldn't even want to rent one for the day.


I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

Never heard of it. Sounds like something vulgar I wouldn't want to own. I've got along all these years without one.

It’s fancy Dijon mustard... it comes in a glass jar. Good god... you live under a rock. Even the working class likes mustard...

I love mustard. Usually French's yellow mustard. But we do have some dijon in the fridge. We got it at Aldi. I'm outside, on the patio, right now, but when I go in, I'll check if that is the brand.

I’m thinking Aldi is 100% store brand but I’m sure it has some sort of name with it...

Yes. Aldi has several of their own private brands. Names like Fit and Active, kirkwood, Friendly Farm, Clancy's, Milville etc. Maybe this Poupon is another of their brands.

I don't think so, Al. :razz

One is French the other is German.

Of course the mustard seed is from Canada.

Just checked. Mine is called Burman's. Maybe that's French for Poupon.
