High end tool guy: you may need a multimeter to check an outlet and HETG recommends a $450 Fluke. Same with Snap-On, air compressors and also with a guy needing to weld up a couple pieces of bedframe and HETG recommends a 230v $2000 mig machine. Just need something around the house? Get the most expensive tool for the job, well worth it says HETG.
Chainsaw guy. You may be a homeowner looking to branch out a tree and chainsaw guy calls all homeowner saws crap, you need (insert pro orange brand) which may cost upwards of $600. Klein Tools- if you are an electrician it is pounded into your brain that they are the best tool ever and always, always tell people they are the best. All you will recommend or ever use. |

Oh and these guys, too... Quoted:
Harley, I have no logos of the brand of bikes I ride on any of my gear or other clothing. Nor do I wear said gear to a motorcycle show in the middle of winter. View Quote I mean, chaps, dew rags, and leather + fringe? C'mon... |

In the circles I'm around and not counting the gun world:
#1 Musicians. It's pretty damn ridiculous sometimes. #2 Duck Hunters when it comes to the boats. The war between Pro-Drive owners and Gator Tail owners is epic and has come to blows on levee's at 4 am. Go Devil and Mud Buddy owners get laughed at by both. All others don't exist in their eyes. A lot of the stupid bastards will spend thousands of dollars to gain 2-3 MPH. Some even go so far as to start talking in TENTHS of MPH when talking about the speed of their boats. The best part, they're all slow as fuck. On a good day in good conditions mine will hit 30 mph stock. Those idiots spend all that money and get up to 33-35 mph. They stress the shit out of what amounts to a lawn mower engine and then wonder why it blows up on the bayou after 26 hours of use. #3 The guy/chick who is overly proud of being from Texas. I'm from here and find it annoying. Yeah it's a cool place to live and I like it, but for fucks sake it isn't the end all be all. Drop it already. |

Smartphone users in general tend to be huge brand snobs. The Android vs iOS (or Samsung vs Apple if you want to go with brands) threads on here always end up looking like a bunch of religious zealots defending their god.

Damn, y'all are falling down
NASCAR. With their Yeti Coolers and Tumblers. |

Harley Davidson I own one, but it's not as serious as some owners make it out to be. View Quote I don't think any one brand can top Harley Davidson for snobbery. A lot (not all, but almost) of the HD dudes I've known are straight up cultish. They wear a bunch of HD branded stuff, and they put HD logos all over the place. And the way they look at almost any other brand of bike? LOL. |

Musicians are some of the biggest gear snobs you can imagine. From guitars to amps to pedals, rack equipment to the type of cable and type of plugs, even the brand of capacitors in the equipment. SNOBS. View Quote There's some truth to this, but some of it comes down to taste, what you're comfortable with, and experience. I've always been pretty much useless on guitar, but the one guitar I own is a cheap Fender Strat I picked up at a pawn shop. Why a Strat? Maybe I listened to too much Gilmour growing up, but I love the way the damn things sound. The majority of my time spent playing bass has been with Ibanez. Why? The necks are really damn comfortable for me. I used to daydream about getting a Music Man Stingray5, but when I had a college roommate that had two, I discovered I never quite got comfortable with them. The other brand that seems to fit me well is Peavey, and there's not as much selection there. And even though I don't drink the Monster koolaid, I've bought a couple of their cables because they were the cheapest option with an in-store replacement policy at the time. |

See the funny thing about PC is it is superior. The mouse is a way better input device over joysticks. I am not shitting on consoles, its just the facts. Imagine playing CS with a controller...

Girls that like Coach brand clothing, boots, etc.
UGG boots. My god... OAKLEYS, especially the $100+ sunglasses. Under Armor to a lesser degree. |
|
My last list I named some girl stuff...
But the girls seem much less snobby (at least to people that don't like the same). They don't seem to feel personally attacked near as much. Fucking devotionless fags. God I hope that's CoC compliant... |

Football fans. You don't know how fucking sick and tired I am of hearing about football 10 months out of the year Working in a warehouse with the lower educated younger generation makes it worse....
Harley Davidson owners Snap-On snobs Yeti owners (and anyone who uses a 'tumbler') Chevy owners....far worse than Ford/Mopar owners Jeep owners Android & Apple phone snobs Ruger 10/22 owners Krispy Kreme lovers |

Taylor Made golf equipment.
Everyone has the woods. But there is a reason. They make the best woods period. I've veered away from their driver for almost every other brand at one time or another. Nothing feels or hammers the way their driver does. |

Corvette owners. They won't even talk to other corvette owners unless they have a brand new corvette just like their own brand new corvette.
I don't get along with them in general. I don't park in their little clique at the cars and coffee. I try to be open to everything like that miata I saw with an LS6 under the hood. |

Jeremy Clarkson once famously quipped, "M3 drivers have no friends."
He did the review in costume. HUGE watch, high dollar sunglasses, driving gloves... it's epic, largely because it's true. |

BMW driver with an Apple iPhone working on his car in a North Face jacket, using Snap on tools, drinking Starbucks coffee. View Quote Close. BMW driver here, with an Android phone, Apple iPad, Arcteryx jacket, wearing Oakleys, drinking Starbucks. You just described my morning. But, no maint on the car, so the Snap On tools stayed in their case. It isn't that I am a brand snob, it's just that every other auto manufacturer sucks. |

Musicians are some of the biggest gear snobs you can imagine. From guitars to amps to pedals, rack equipment to the type of cable and type of plugs, even the brand of capacitors in the equipment. SNOBS. View Quote Mostly amateur musicians. Working pros generally have good and valid reasons for their likes. Same way a professional in any field has preferences. Martin guitar snobs are my favorite. Nothing else will do for them and the people they're playing with. It's always fun when one of them asks about the origins of my guitar. I always just laugh and say "Made in China." Then they turn and look at their own gear with a certain sense of disappointment. It's ok though. The 40 Series Martin's are still some of the finest acoustic flat picking guitars made. |
