I read this somewheres and it resonates with my limited personal experience.
When we tell stories, we start at the chronological beginning and move to the chronological end. The most important part is the *plot*.
When the poor tell stories, they start at the chronological *end* or the part with the greatest emotional intensity. They tell the story in vignettes with audience interaction in between. It ends with a comment about the character’s values. The most important part is the *characterization*.
I don’t think it’s controversial to say that different classes have different bodies of common / assumed knowledge, and to change classes or work to interact well with a different class might necessarily involve a sacrifice of ease in ones current relationships.
