To be clear, I wasn't upset or even irritated initially. I corrected him because he was wrong, much the same way I'd correct him if he'd said I was a blonde. There's nothing wrong with it, it just isn't accurate.
What does race or religion have to do with being snobbish or yuppie-ish? I'm definitely a yuppie, but I'm not sure how that's related to being a WASP or why that would be something to criticize.
