What do you call these guys in english?

[Reinier]

they drink beer and play golf and tennis and wear polo shirts.
their fav conversation topics are their/their dads (depend on age) 4 yaughts, 3 homes and 5 cars.

they talk like they have a potato in their throat and in holland they all play fieldhockey. they refer to the average citizen as plebs, workers, groundlins etc

button shirts and rib pants are totally theirs and boat shoes and sailing jackets are logical...

i imagine social groups being somewhat similar abroad what would you call these guys. i guess snob comes close but its not exactly the same

[Reinier]

o i forget double first names like Jan-pieter or jan-diederik, jean-pierre whatever are mandatory

[BennettBoy]

Rich?

[Relentless]

snob isn't a bad choice for dolts like that

other ideas:
snooty
snotty
high and mighty
stuck-up
arrogant
supercilious
toffee-nosed or 'toff' (British slang?)

fortunately not everyone that is born into wealth grows up to be an arrogant prick like the people you've described...

[millertime]

Elitest.

Btw I only have 2 homes, 4 cars and 1 Yacht.

[Reinier]

lol most my friends are these guys.

its not JUST that they are rich and look down on people alot its more. you also got to sail. in holland sailing = elite. you aint **** till you got a yaught. really always been that way- (from the 18th century on when holland was like on top of the world, mainly cuz of sea trade)

also you need to dress classy, even tho most the time they dress classy in a tacky way.

and they have all these fashion words that they pronounce in their special potato way too

[millertime]

WTF is a special potato way ?

[Relentless]

it just goes to show:

all the money in the world can't save you from acting like a dick


LMAO @ "pronounce in their special potato way". :zipit:

[Reinier]

also of course they travel alot and talk about it even more. they love to talk about their trip to bali/florida/CA/Paris whatever

[Reinier]

id show you guys but my mic is not working.
try http://www2.hku.nl/~eelco2/web/content/Jan%20Diederik%20-%20Kansloos.mp3

the word in dutch is kakker. everybody knows exactly what your talking about with them here.

try that song. its satire of course. kakkers would never listen to or produce rap but the lyrics to this ROCK

[Tryska]

my first answer was rich, but i'll go with preppie bastards.

[Tryska]

trust-fund babies is another one.

[millertime]

This thread reeks of jealous

Why aren't you be rich? No ones stopping you from making money.

Get out there and hustle!

[Reinier]

i think theyre ok actually, at least they throw the best parties over at the fieldhockey club. therell be a tournement for the whole weekend and like 40 teams will be there but they only play as an excuse to be there... if theyre losing bad theyll say the others just didn`t drink enough beer...

[Reinier]

i think i am one actually... i always get along best with this type of guys and i get called kakker a lot by people i dont know. i dress kinda like em too.
i actually got boat shoes button shirt and a pantalon on right now. imported watch too

I'm not trying to sound like that. I mean if money means that much, why not give 100% to being rich.

[BennettBoy]

You mean all those folks you were with in that picture you posted under My Crew are like you are describing? I never would have thunk it. Looked more like ordinary young teenagers do here in America to me.

To add to Callahan's statement:

Or a douche-bag.

[Pup]

I was thinking more along the lines of frat boy...but douche-bag is quite appropriate as well.

[Jane]

I really think the word you're looking for is "preps" or "preppies"

[Tryska]

kakker just sounds like a very rude word to me.


and miller...i'm just giving you a hard time. ;)

[Pup]

you know T...it reminds me a lot of the word keffer used by the south africans...i believe you know its meaning.

[Tryska]

yeah...another dutch word.

it reminds me of...well several things, none of which are good. *lol*

[paco wilson]

You mean they drink Crystal, not beer.

[Manveet]

fags

yup, that's what I call them.

[AdamGberg]

men with sticks up there As$?

if you didn't earn it, then don't flaunt it. but if you did...

[Tryska]

men in funny plaid pants.

with matching tam'o shanters.

women in sweater sets and pearls. so very juinor league.


woo.

(flashed back to high school there for a moment - i grew up with those people)

[PowerManDL]

I want to reprise Rodney Dangerfield's role in "Caddyshack" whenever I see those folks.

[Titan]

Preps?

[Reinier]

lol they hardly REALLY exist. theyre just a running gag around my friends to act like em.

[WestyHeadbanger]

In Australia they are called "Housos"

The richest people in Australia are Housos or Westys.

[Accipiter]

'that's the most terrible hat I've ever seen!....but it looks good on you!'

[Reinier]
