Elitism

Dear classmate,

you don't know me well.

So don't comment.

Don't talk to me in such a derogatory manner.

Don't assume what you think you know.

So what if i do not know certain things you deem as general knowledge,

We have different priorities in life.

So what if i'm a bookworm.

It's my responsibility as a student, as a healthcare professional.

Don't mock me.

There's a certain limit.

And that applies to friends.

But i don't think i regard you as mine now.

Such insult.

Friends don't derive joy out of mocking and looking down on each other.

If elitism is your belief,

then stay away from me.

I don't believe in that, esp when it applies to someone like you.
