Better to be thought of as a massive cunt, than to go and openly advertise it as fact. 
(as the saying sort of goes)

Working for a charity I was registering someone for Gift Aid who lived in a very desirable address in Hove full of >£1m houses
I asked for the post code, got a drop down from the system full of numbers and asked her which one she lived at.
“Stepping Stones”
I am sorry there are no house names for that road on the database what number do you live at?
“We call it Stepping Stones”
I am sorry but for Gift Aid, HMRC insist we record the address as it appears on the Royal Mail database
“Is that absolutely necessary everyone knows us as Stepping Stones”
I am sorry but I doubt your tax return comes through to Stepping Stones, I am afraid we need the number
She then whispered “No 8”
I had to ask her to repeat it as I didn’t hear it the first time!

I had no idea where to stick this so it’s going here. Have a look at this two bed house in Missouri. Things are fairly normal until you get to pic 30. I think that someone needs to scrutinise the hard drives of the seller very fucking carefully indeed.

That doesn’t really make sense but A for effort (downgraded to a B).
Some people are proper snobs, the lady half of a couple I know wanted to change their postcode so it would be In a slightly more desirable area.
The request was met with short shrift by RM as I understand it. 
Sorry to hear about your cognitive issues.

There’s an area around here the same which became desirable but had a different landline dialling code. Loads of Hyacinth Bucket types paid well over the odds for underwhelming houses that were just in the catchment. Of course within 5 years everyone was using their mobiles as their main phones and they’d lost the £50-75k premium they’d sunk into these places never to return!

Aka people who name houses. 
Would make a nice guest house. 
Filmed in Leamington Spa, no less, some of the inhabitants of which moan about a CV postcode.

This explains a lot.
I thought it was Coventry 
Leamington is part of Coventry - you can tell by the postcode.
