That's because you're walking in a different frame. :P
Seriously, it doesn't matter if you don't understand that, it still seems to be the case. Which tells me that I for one am walking in the frame I would want to walk in.

PERFECT. That's it. You hit the nail on the head.
No, she didn't. Marking others' inferiority in order to mark their supposedly own superiority can be seen as arrogant but arrogance isn't necessarily about this.
Look up the definition of arrogance. That is all arrogance is - acting superior while not being superior.

So really superior people can't be arrogant then?

This probably is the case, Crash - like we already established the day before. It just bugs me that I don't understand it. But fortunately for me, I'm walking in the frame where I'd rather be.

IMO there is no such thing as superior people... Some may have better knowledge or better way in certain things but u can no way call them superior to others.... For me if someone think he/she superior then other then that person is really what u call arrogant and even racist at someway...

No, because there are no superior people Therefore, anybody who acts like they are (whether it is through knowledge, looks, money or anything else) is an arrogant jerk.

It's so simple, what don't you understand? Surely, you've been exposed to arrogant men/bosses/girls/whatever?
