This is completely false, belle meade has mansions everywhere and looks like it is full of money


Yes but these mansions are usually not ostentatious monstrosities built just to show how big and ridiculous a house can be built like the mansions in Brentwood are. Topic here is “pretentious”, not rich. There is a big difference.

IMO, the southern Nashville suburbs (mainly Brentwood and Franklin) and NoVa (if you consider that the South) take the cake. What says the OT?



I don't consider Northern Virginia the South.

Oxford, MS


The most pretentious places in Mississippi are Madison,MS, the Fondren area of Jackson, and Grand Blvd in Greenwood,MS. I'd put Oxford 4th on that list

River Oaks Houston - so bad that people buy cars from dealerships there and leave the license plate frame on to let everyone know.

By "pretentious" do you mean upper class areas where people are educated, take care of their property, hold other people accountable for their actions, and are involved in their community/schools?

Seems I’m a little late to this thread, so I’ve not read any responses to the OP, but i’ll be terribly disappointed if Mobile isn’t the answer 95%. Those people are like Hapsburg inbred.

Okay so the mansion is older and deeper in the property with tree cover vs a newer big house right in the front of the property? Both are mansions lol

River Oaks isn’t that bad. The Woodlands has the most aggressive pretentious dip shvts imho.

basically, pretentiousness is passing oneself off as something one is not. In particular, something better, more prestigious or more important

places aren’t pretentious, people are

I disagree with this. Belle Meade is old money. You’d never know many of those people are loaded. Brentwood however is another story - new money trying to outdo each other. The running joke around here is that Brentwood High uses a 2018 BMW as the homecoming sledgehammer 3 hits for $10 car.


As a local I’d agree. They are revamping Richland CC so a huge chunk of their members joined here (Temple Hills CC). All those guys are way less pretentious than the dickhead resident members here, and they all have FU money. In order:

Brentwood (West of 65)
Highlands of BelleMeade
Green Hills
Franklin (37069 - guilty)
Brentwood (East of 65)

The Comus bal masqué
quote:


Royal mothers Margaret LeCorgne and Elly Lane appeared in ballgown of rich colors, while Anne Lynne Charbonnet, wife of Rex, wore a column dress of teal silk. Noted, too, at the Comus ball was Anne Kock, the Mistick Krewe’s queen in 2012, and Linda Westfeldt, whose daughter, Mary Scott Westfeldt McKinnon, was a former Comus queen.

The culminating moment of Carnival occurred at the glorious Comus masquerade when the royal foursome stood in front of the throne during the Meeting of the Courts for the sweep of three scepters by queens Sarah and Peyton and Rex Storey, and the silver goblet cup of his majesty Comus. The applause was exhilarating


The Rex Ball
quote:

The fourth queen of Carnival in her family, her majesty Sarah Lane, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Merritt Lane III, is the great-granddaughter of Rex of 1958, Joseph Merrick Jones. Pages Collier Villere and Robert Milling have multiple instances of Rex royalty, including great-grandfather Ernest Villere, 1968, and aunt Sidonie Villere, 1998 (who reigned with Robert Henry Boh), and grandfather R. King Milling, 1993.
