Do you suppose it's wrong for my friend to look down his nose a little bit at people on the train reading Twilight? He also did this when he'd see every second person reading Harry Potter and The Da Vinci Code, in their heydays.
It's not (he tells me), so much about the quality or content of the books, but more because EVERYONE is reading the exact same thing.
Is my friend a snob?

Snob? No. Unnecessarily judgemental? I'd say so. Its like saying people who watch 'So you think you can dance' (like I hear your friend does) is also to be frowned upon.
People in glass houses.....and all that.
my friend says 'people in glass houses have a very good view'.
Of the rocks about to smash them in the face.
does this same friend have a moleskin tucked away in his backpack? ;)
He has two.
My friend is a very complex human being, full of mysterious paradoxes.
I would NEVER be friends with your friend
;)
j/k. Your friend sounds very similar to me..!
Certainly snobby and probably misguided :) I assume when Shakespeare's plays were first performed, there were people like your friend sneering at the crowds that rolled up to see Hamlet!
