Cruise Snobs

Hey,

After talking with a friend about 5 minutes ago I was reminded about the current trend on cruises.

Not usually on AFF cruises but on other cruises I've noticed that certain groups snub other groups when thry try to be friendly.

For example on an all car cruise I noticed that the Jap import crew had no interest in speaking to me because I just parked up in an XR8. ALso getting the looks of disgust.

Now I'm not talking about going up and getting to know the blokes I'm just talking about saying g'day in passing.

The worst I've found are the Guys that are into the American classics now my 3 most desired cars in the world are a 68 charger, a 70 Vette or a dropped and chopped 40's 50's f series. So naturally I want to go and look and talk to the guys.

The worst case I've had was when i was talking to a guy that owned a 68 charger, and he was heaps friendly and we were chatting and then I told him i was 20 and drove an XR8 and BANG his attitude changed.

Now im not particularly fussed, I don't give a rats. I was taught growing up that "all men are created equal" meaning that I don't care what you drive if approached I'm going be friendly.

I'm just wondering is this an SA phenomenon or does this happen interstate aswell???

I'm not sure I described the vibe I get from these guys but those who have had this happen will know what im talking about
