Years ago we moved from Houston Texas to the Seattle area. Not knowing any better we rented a house on Mercer Island. The rental was priced competitively and Mercer Island is convenient to both Seattle and Bellevue. Things were fine until we’d leave the island and talk to people wile going about our day. Invariably we’d have a friendly conversation until they asked where we lived and we’d say Mercer Island, then you’d see this look of anger in their eyes and their small jealous minds begin to work, you could almost read their minds “Oh so you live on Mercer Island, you arrogant snob! Well I’ll show you, I’ll just be a snob right back atcha!” and the previously friendly conversation would go downhill from there. Ten years later we were having a garage sale at out little 3br 1car garage home in Naperville IL and my wife got into a conversation with a lady who’d just moved to Naperville from Seattle, Gail mentioned Mercer Island and it happened all over again! The thing is no matter what you do or how nice you are small minds will find ways to be offended.
