Serves you right lmao

I also went to same college, I actually quite liked seeing the uniformed students in the morning. They seem so distinguished

LMFAOOOOOOO NOO😭

🤣🤣

Same

LOOOL same

Same hahah

I thought it was part of the intro 😂

Yup

yeah

Aha

Yep

yeah

I went to a state secondary school then got a scholarship for a boarding sixth form. The private sixth form definitely pushed me more for exams than any other state college or school.

The upper class who can afford these schools also benefit from having stable homes. If you’re impoverished, your home life is likely to be dysfunctional, with addiction and mental illness being higher with poverty. Dealing with those issues at home as a child will massively impact your chances in life. And the wealthy then go on to join the boys club of politics and run the country, where they enact policies which further disenfranchise the poor (see: David Cameron, Boris Johnson, every wanker in the Tory party). Eton and Harrow should be turned into museums and the little darlings put into council estates for a few years to see how they like it. 2024 Edit: this comment was made 4 years ago, and my politics has shifted a lot since then owing to how insane the Left has become around identity politics. I no longer hold these positions I wrote in this thread, and I hope a lot of people on the Left trying to be "compassionate to the oppressed" wake up to how intolerant and dangerous the Left has now become in the guise of "centering the voices of the oppressed". Gender identity theory which magically transforms a bloke into the most oppressed kind of woman has turned the Left into a joke for me, and the more you look into the Critical Theories now infesting this movement, the more totalitarian it reveals itself to be.

L Martin the majority of MP’s did not go to a private school so by your own logic the ‘old boys club’ has been elected by the people when they could have elected people from the council estates but a valiant attempt 🙃

L Martin I feel quite sorry for you to be honest ... You clearly have a chip on your shoulder and I imagine living with any kind of resentment can’t be nice. I live resentment free and I’m state school educated.

L Martin I don’t think they care what you or I think. Just try to let go of those feelings, because they will only serve to eat you up inside. I agree with you that inequality of wealth in this country has reached levels that the top 1% pay more tax than the other 99% (ie they’re earning excessive amounts) and something shod be done about that, but coming from an Economics graduate (me... hi!) I can tell you that the problem is not an easy one to solve and will always exist. There is no point getting angry over things you can’t change. Just accept them and move on. :)

Harrow boys are posh twats I wanted to go to eton and realised I didn't have enough money so I went to whitgift

@@theboredreaper5902 right cause whitgift school, that's not posh at all...

The Bored Reaper the irony

This is sadder then Twilight. Specially when you know you spent your days being beaten by the London oratory, a school that's free (shock horror)

AlfaAddict Not comparable in sport at all though.

Yeah and other way round is red virus

In the 90’s in Toledo Ohio we called it Butts up

Red arse n bluebells

I think red arse is a Northern thing

Who's the Malaysian guy? What year was it?

it was my mate ibrahim. his dad is an aristocrat in malaysia@@HANTUCOVA

Nice

I agree i prefer him a lot more than jackmaate

JaackMaate got incredibly weird and boring fast. I used to adore his content, beans and burgers is still one of my fave inside jokes with my bf. But idk his content is bit wank now. Max still has amazing content on his channel.

@@lotussight His KZfaq channel really obviously isn’t his passion at all anymore, so idk why he keeps going back to it. His passion is clearly for Happy Hour nowadays.

I think he keeps doing the main so he can do happy hour, it’s his cash cow basically I reckon

@@fergusramage4069 yeah I’ve heard him say that, but surely it can’t be that much of a money earner that he has to force himself to do videos. He’s got a Spotify deal and one of the biggest podcasts in the UK at the end of the day.

Yeah I really wanted to go to a boarding school when I was young lol and I went to a public school

But no girls?

@@1032999i Hahaha there were 6 boys boarding houses and 6 girls boarding houses. It's still a mixed school.

st edwards is better

I’m from Cheltenham, a few friends went to Cheltenham College and it does sound like such a laugh

Watch Americans ruin it lol

Eh, the wealthy should be ashamed.

If only we could abolish class

Still great fun to poke fun at the toffs

@@L_Martin All of the wealthy ? Or just some ? And how so ?

u tried

Yeh 😂

Lmao yeah

Yeah

Yes sir haha

Premium gang? Lmao

Didn’t know state boarding schools existed!

@@livewithintention1625u have to pay for the boarding part

Don’t feel sorry for these people.

gordons?

"Delicious dinner"? Things have changed since catering at Harrow has been centralised, but when I was there the staple diet was 'goulash' or 'stew'. Cartons of dog food were delivered every day, but neither the matron nor the housemaster had a dog. I only wish I was joking.

great sport 👍

My friend's school's claim to fame was that it 'invented' cricket

Eton invented football and has had 14 prime minsters go there and the past 7 princes and queen elizbeth the 2nd was the only girl to go there

Hang in there chief

Same difference tbh

😭😭😂

If I found myself saying things like "people be talking" I would get depressed too.

Honestly, jack came across as such a prick through out this icl

@@brendonutjita Jack comes across posh himself trying to take the piss out of a posher kid

@@teddyboy9497 he’s from a council estate to be fair to him definitely not posh

Yeah honestly I feel like I relate more to Max and I went to a state school lol

@@5uper5kill3rzthe happy hour guys are absolute dorks

Do u know who Neil back is. The England rugby World Cup winner?

Difference is Harry was just as good as his father in ‘sports’ if not better

This is gonna sound dumb but why do posh people tend to have posh names? Like Rees-Mogg for example and “Fosh” like names that sound very uncommon

@@5uper5kill3rz because they are old money, and in general people with a lot of money have less children

@@Sphagetti__ Absolutely rubbish, Rees-Mogg has 6 children, Boris has around the same. If anything the 'upper class' have more children because they don't have to personally look after them and can afford it.

Ciaran O'Brien Fun fact: a scene in Harry Potter was actually filmed at Harrow school

Reminds me of Smeltings!

@@jkmallett2356 do you know which scene?

J R the hogwarts dining hall is filmed in harrow dining hall

meiksm no way really! I love Harry Potter sm

I go to Westminster (I'm a girl in Sixth Form), and my dad went there too. Most of these experiences sound similar and i can relate to.

Charterhouse here

Rugby school here

You clicked on the vid

Im guessing you sat through 8 films about a certain posh wizard who went to a posh wizard school too? Lol

Im American and Im going there in September!

@@victoriaknight1345 were r u going harrow or London cause I’m American and I went to London and I was held at knifepoint

Thanks no one cares

That was about as fun as piles 😢

Watch Streetsmart on here. He’s ace x

Bro where he grew up is a shithole I live near it lol. Like almost tower block in London standard

Countryside Council estates can be worse than London as the people are poorer

London isn’t the only place with rough council estates 😂 Maybe leave the capital one day mate

You think london is the only place with rough areas?

You would love it in Wales then mate, all the Council Estates are lower middle class minimum 🙄

And wealdstone.... madness

I live in wealdstone and can certainly agree lol

I live in harrow and its a shit hole

@@louisr7959 big suprise

I always defended Harrow, but after 2 years in Wealdstone, I finally moved. Depressing and scary in equal measure

100% agree

Mate thats true tbf never even thought about it, When you say harrow high street and harrow on the hill i dont even connect the two

the records the only thing straight to do with boarding schools

FaZe ChickenConnoisseur What is there to be jealous of?

pk 17 nobody is jealous of boarding school kids in the uk really, they’re the butt of a lot of jokes lol

@@pk-sc8iz no shit we're jealous, we weren't born into opulent wealth or status and haven't had everything handed to us on a plate since day 1

They live life on easymode. It's all about money. The more you have the more of life you get to enjoy because you can spend your time doing what brings you happiness instead of working a tedious job to put food on the table.

@@davidgalea6113 Also the ability to aim to achieve something in life without the existential concerns that so many have. So many A list Actors, Writers, Musicians who did not have to worry about homelessness or poverty as they pursued their passions...and thats just the deserving talented ones....then we get onto the Establishment in general which is a cancer on the body of the UK.

I did feel kind of bad for him to be honest they’re slyly taking the piss out of him the whole time

@@maxmaclaren7107 to be fair tho it's hard not to, like I'm friends with a bunch of posh private school people n it's just funny making jokes out of things like that. They are rich privileged white people they are the last people who u should feel bad for

Max Maclaren yeah don’t feel sorry for them they have life easy they can take a few jokes about being posh

@@maxmaclaren7107 If you watch any of his streetsmart videos, you'll see that he does the same thing to the people he talks to so he's probably just taking it as a joke

Went to boarding school and most can take including myself and I’m sure he takes it like nothing having somewhat of a KZfaq status. But it’s ridiculously insensitive when you see more timid and nervous people who then get immediately shut down in friendship groups, social situations and general opinions. Despite most of these kids ain’t making these decisions for them with mainly parents sending them to school. It crushes people and have seen many people get into deep dark holes and sometimes death because they are scrutinised for a decision they didn’t make

What country

@alice Rose where can I find the full episode?

James Smith Spotify and Apple Podcasts

@@aliceerosee cheers appreciate it

what school do you go to ?

@@pylot5021 it’s not.

Which area?

Stowe?

I also went to boarding school and no the fuck it isn’t lol. You’re just still living in the bubble mate.

Yup its more so the people they meet and circles that they move in. They end up scratching each other’s backs later on.

Just trying to show how "salt-of-the-earth" they are.

He does know 😂 My guy goes “how scummy we are” while still sounding posh

I went school in manchester so is it the same thing in the west midlands then as well

What was so bad about the smoking weed part lmao ?

Gabriel Clarke you can smoke weed if you want, but it’s probably best you don’t do it in school hours :) some of us tryna learn

@bw 1506 near Birmingham- I’d rather not get more specific in KZfaq comments lmai

@@jaxsjpg3225 I know don't worry, only messin ahaha.

Did you go to private school?

Yeah, private sch is an experience but once you're out of school its really up to the individual to make the most of the opportunities.

"pee pee poo" -winston churchill

christ imagine quoting churchill in 2020

pravneeet, he could otherwise be quoting Churchill in German 👀

pravneeet Imagine not quoting Churchill in 2020. Pretty important PM

I swear Churchill said literally everything. There's literally whole books about Churchill quotes

He thinks people watching are idiots who need everything explained really simply.

I didn’t know A or C

I am shocked lol looks like they’re mocking it a bit. I am from the Philippines and I know about Harrow, basically your ABCs

He is your typical working class leftist who just dislikes anyone better then him/anyone who he perceives to be from a higher class than him; despite the fact he preaches tolerance and kindness even though he hates people he’s never met and generalises them immensely

i mean.... idk any of them

I live less than 40 minutes away from harrow but I only just found out it exists

He got that class at Harrow

The condescension that you talk about isn't quite there. What is happening is that they're clearly voicing their(and I'm sure many other's) beliefs about the upper class. It's quite fine to be honest. Max shows that some of the beliefs aren't necessarily true.

Agree, am not sure why people think it’s good for their kids but hell its fun!

I don't agree with seperating genders in schools it makes no sense to me.

@@Heatwave9000 I can see how it protects girls from boys who might want to take advantage of them, particularly at a boarding school. Since it doesn't happen a lot the other way round, I don't really get the point of all boys schools.

@@islandbreeze2631 Nah

@@islandbreeze2631 it’s not really about protecting girls, people had the mindset that we should teach girls and boys differently because of things like the way each was able to learn etc. Not sure if now it holds up though. (Went to an all boys primary/middle school)

The bus stop was outside Westacre - it was the only time anyone from the school would have ever seen anyone from St Dominicks.

Me

wow thats actually pretty cool lol

We had Wembley singles, rebounds aswell but we called it red arse where I grew up down south east

I grew up in kenton, a mile from Wembley and harrow, we called it world Cup lol

Wembley singles, walllie and Red arse

Tell me more

Yeah the hill and the rest feel like completely different places

How do you know it was the same? You came out of that school with unfair, undeserved advantages that 90 percent of people in the country are denied.

@@boarbot7829 If you had actually read my comment, you'll see I said "for my teens" - I was publicy educated for 7 years and privately for 6. I was only able to go when my mum got a job there which gave a 50% discount. When I was privately educated, I didn't get to go on holidays abroad bc we couldn't afford it. Secondly, not a single one of my uni friends were privately educated, so we used to talk about it and compare a lot. They're still my best friends 8 years later. Thirdly, I come from a working class family on both sides and both of my parents were the only people in their families to stay in school past 16, let alone go to college. I was never allowed to take my privileged education for granted, and all my friends in my hometown went to the local high school. Finally, what do you mean by "undeserved"? Did the 98% of kids who failed the entrance exam deserve to get in? Does someone with a nicer car than me not deserve it? Does the fact that I never had a phone bought for me in my life by my parents whilst all my public high school friends had iPhones mean they didn't deserve them? Having seen both sides of the coin, the difference between the two is partly facilities, but overwhelmingly is the character and attitude of the teachers. If you go to private school and you're dumb, they can't change that - what they can do is influencr your cognitive faculties and make you more critical and reasonable. Using those faculties afforded to me is what makes your comment so laughable: 1. You immediately dived into having a go at me didn't stop to read that I have been through both private and public education (i.e. I actually have a real perspective on both - do you?) 2. You immediately default to the Marxist-Wolffian position that having something better than others means it must be stolen somewhere in the chain of trade and thus is "undeserved". I am pretty frugal and am absolutely certain you have stuff in your posession that is much nicer than mine - so who gets to decide whether you deserve it? You? Unless you stole it, I think you deserve it. So if I go to a fee-paying school as a child of a plumber and a teacher, at what point does my parents dedicating their lives and sacrificing stuff like going on holiday simply got my education mean that I don't deserve it?

yeah it costs £50k a year so i’d be quizzing you

@@ofwje 16k at mine but 8k bc my mum got a job there to get the discount

it is another planet for some people. the fact you and many other private schoolers are incapable of recognising this really shows the kind of bubble you grew up in. It's ok that you went to a private school, and it's not your fault you grew up in this bubble, but now you are out in the real world, you need to be able to at least acknowledge the privilege you had. Otherwise you embarrass yourself and it's frankly offensive to others who grew up in diabolical poverty, living hand to mouth. And yes, that does happen in this country, and is far more common than whatever you are imagining.

Except on Sundays, when we looked like dorks too - except with straw hats instead of top hats. NOBODY ever called them "boaters", because they're not, which I find a bit weird here.

Spot on

It is a new world compared to regular ppl lives,at least here in England

Do most teenagers go to boarding schools in Southern Africa?

Very unlikely. Hats weren't worn off the Hill, outside school, and in the school area you'd have been outnumbered by hundreds.

They have done that, search How jaackmate faked it to 1,000,000 subs and you'll find 😁

Joe Haywood Thank you!
