politicians can be called social climbers too in the strict sense of the word. a social climber usually commits a large dose of faux pas. he usually lacks social grace and unwittingly violate etiquette rules in accordance to standard social customs in that particular class.
me? u can call me a climber, yes. a mountain climber that is!
hmmmm... i think mao ni naka-jackpot sa definition sa "social climber"...
nwei, as for me, dili mn ko social climber.. though mag coffee2 ko sa starbucks, i don't do it para lang mag tambay (ako ra gani i-take out para di ko molingkod did2 kay kiwaw), i just enjoy their coffee. i like to eat in pungko2, carenderia ug ubang "fancy" restos.. it's because of the fact nga ganahan lang ko mo try sa all good things in life. lols.
