Prejudice
"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

I had this time and time again, myself.
Eventually I realised that saying I went to school at Winchester, which, whilst entirely correct, suggested that I went to Winchester College (I didn't: there was no way on God's earth I was going to go there, as my father was a don there). This ended the discussion on most occasions leaving me free to continue my sad little life unencumbered by a pointless discussion.

One of them did try to tell me that the flappy hair suggested a public school education
Naturally I found this deeply offensive. I think in the end I just got used to answering their question with "Teddington."
"Oh, I don't think I've heard of that one. Rah."
"You won't have. It's a state comp just up the river from Kingston Bridge."
Usually good for killing that conversation dead in the water.
