Elite Me.

Some complete fucking fucktard HERE has been making the rounds this week with an asinine article trying to claim that the key to be an "elite" member of society is not only KNOWING the right books and tv shows, but also NOT knowing the right books and tv shows. Seems like an awesome guy, perfectly at home at both the Elks Club and the other, even more exclusive Elks Club.

Anyways, someone put together an How Elite Are You? quiz HERE.  I present you with my answers:

1. Can you talk about "Mad Men?" Yes.
