UrbanBaby.com has a reputation as the message board of choice for wealthy, sophisticated, hateful east coast urbanites. What is the real lineage of anonymous UrbanBaby posters? Why, they are glad that you asked.

  • "I'm a descendant of one of the founding families of Fairfield, CT. I'm a member of the DAR with 3 patriot relatives. I have 3 Ivy league degrees. I married a second generation Italian and I absolutely kept my last name!"
    "Oh one of the found families of Fairfield, CT??? I'm super impressed."
    "If you knew anything about revolutionary war history, you would be impressed."
    "I do, and I'm not. Sorry."
  • "Jealous. While your family was plowing the fields in some Eastern European hell hole, my family was part of the aristocracy in the new world. I can see why you are attacking me."
  • "Two direct lines of royalty in our lineage, Hapsburgs and British. My family has been in this country for 400 years and I grew up thinking everyone had streets in MA named after them. I am friends with several famous folks and have childhood photos of myself with heads of state. I speak several languages. But there is not one person in NYC who knows all of these things about me. Most people know one, perhaps two. I am seriously understated."
  • "English and titled mom here. Hilarious to me that Americans think they are upper class because their family members attended a school for two generations prior to them. They ignore the fact that they were peasant immigrants. Our land and titles go back 800 or more years. I sent a link for this thread to friends back in London and we've been laughing all night."
  • "Married to former professional athlete. I have an Ivy degree. We are fine but definitely not making any more major money; but we did well with savings"
  • "Professional athlete is trashy."
  • "When you see his ten inch dick, you'll wish he was your kind."
