My ex is such a culture snob in that geeky way. How dare I like music that he doesn't, not appreciate his favorite comedians style of humor, etc.? And he constantly does the incredulous "you never heard of blahblah band before?!" And yet, if I turn my nose up at something he likes (like South Park for example), I'm being all snobby and picky about my tastes. Don't I get that they are being satirical?!?!?! FU, I don't care. Their voices drive me nuts and I don't like the show. :P~
He's really up on political stuff, so he does it with that, too. "You don't know who senator so-in-so is?!?!"
My way of retaliating is to get into some philosophical discussion, because I've studied philosophy and he hasn't. But then, I've gotten the patronizing "See? You've taught ME something now!" in response when I win a philosophical debate with him. Like, WOW, who woulda thunk I knew more than him about something?? *groan*
