Determine Your Social Class Based on What You Drink
No, really.

This rating system is based heavily on Paul Fussell's book Class, possibly the most important book ever written. Of course, how you speak, what you wear, the items in your living room, and what time you eat dinner all have a great deal to do with your social class, but what you drink says a lot, too.
