Buckley Syndrome

when a person with working class Irish Catholic roots gets a little taste of wealth and then tries to present themself to others as snobby, aristocratic and British in an attempt to appear more sophisticated than they really are. People with a severe case of this disease sometimes speak in bogus transatlantic accents. Named after William F. Buckley, pretentious host of the TV show Firing Line that ran for over 30 years.
Rick: hey, you wanna text Johnny to see if he's down to smoke some weed?

James: nah, he's got Buckley Syndrome ever since that ambulance chaser helped him win that lawsuit. He only smokes Benson and Hedges now.

Buckley

Buckley is a small town in Washington. It’s in the middle of nowhere. You have probably driven through it to get somewhere else. Full of old people and kids who ride dirt bikes, drive big diesel trucks to compensate, and think their extremely beat cars are actually cool. Most teenagers you see will drive a Subaru. You might hear “yeeyee” often. Don’t be surprised if you come through Buckley and smell marijuana, because for some reason there are two dispensaries for a 3.8 mile area. Parties are only thrown in the woods, only hick shit happens there.
Person 1: Hey, you tryna take a trip down to Buckley?
Person 2: Why? There’s absolutely nothing to do there except get drunk and smoke loud.
Person 2: Actually.... Let’s go
