What are the pros on being a social climber?

Another funny parody from bitoy. May patama na we all see as not looking good, but is it always a bad thing? What do you think are the positives?

I've never been a fan of Michael V so obviously I'm not going to like this parody. His opinions remind me of the average Filipino internet user na ramblings without much intellect or awareness and reek of privilege. Like his post calling out collectors for not wearing the shoes they buy and just display it. Or those tacky "Ako at ang Ina" series that satirizes internet memes but through the lens of a boomer who don't get it.

Ang low effort na target ng Starbucks. It hasn't been a symbol of "prestige" for more than a decade now and most of the gripes regarding those who indulge in it are presumptuous. Pano mo alam na yung bumibili dun clout lang habol? Ang dami dami na mga coffee chains and drinks that are in the same price point as SB. Just because pinipilahan ng marami yung sa Tagaytay, doesn't mean they want to be "cool" โ€” I don't think nakakita ako ng drive-thru SB na hindi blockbuster ang pila. St. Charbel, San Fernando, Malolos, West Ave, lahat yan mahaba. Masahol talaga diyan, Tagaytay e. Even the shittiest restaurant there will have tons of patrons, lol.
