I peeped the nomination form and it included categories for "summer residence, "lineage" and "cotillions." Just FYI. I am going to reserve comment.

OMG!

Can you say self-esteem issues or what? Is this being done because some folks feel the need to validate their self-worth and status with a registry? CTFU???? *LOL* I swear some of us (AfAm) place important on some real dumb ish.
My 150 million dollar question is why? Seriously....? I was taught that those who "flaunt their money", so to speak was a sign of bad manners and just plain uncouth.
I guess my summers at grandma's wouldn't be elite enough *lol*
Another question asked if the college you attended was public or private...*lol* I guess public education is
soooo urban to some folks.
WOW, this is pretty funny to me.
