The sniffy behaviour employed by a snob. Behaving in a superior fashion to others on account of their perceived (or actual) status in relationship to one's own.

Oik: 'See they uppity nigguhz? Nevah done a day's work nevah. Heh - they all book-lurned n'shit. That's snobbery right there *hokspit*'

Inverse Snobbery
Thinking you're better than other people because you're working class, have a regional accent, don't use big words, read tabloid papers, or for other reasons which are opposite to those which would be involved in "snobbery" in the usual sense.
The argument that people who live in "rough" areas are the only ones who "know" about crime and that everyone else should shut up is just an example of inverse snobbery.

Reverse Snobbery
The practice of distrusting or disliking those of a perceived higher social class than oneself. Therefore, a hick who hates rich people would be a reverse snob.
When colleges don't want to acceptcredits from another college because they don't believe the other school is good enough, when what they really want, is just your money to take their courses.
I applied to A fancy college after going to a state college and they would only accept 19 of 80 credits due to academic snobbery.

Woppery Snobbery
An egocentric disorder peculiar to Italian Americans. Obviously their food is tastier; their cars are faster and nobody can run a bookie joint better than a member of the Woppery Snobbery order.
Paulsy: Who in the hell cares if I put cottage cheese in my lasagna? The Italians think they invented food preparation and shit; they've all got freakin' Woppery Snobbery.

Textbook Snobbery
a blind, often aggressive belief in what one's textbook says, in violation of the facts. Derived from the military term "combat snobbery."
French kid: My textbook said capitalism is evil!
Smart kid: And that's why those who live in socialist countries are so poor and unhappy?
French kid: ... but it said Americans are evil!
Smart kid: You seem to suffer from textbook snobbery, sir.

Chronological Snobbery
"chronological snobbery," the uncritical assumption that her mother is hotter, whether or not this fact has been discredited. You must find why it has been discredited. Was it ever refuted (and if so by whom, where, and how conclusively) or did this opinion merely die away as fashions do? If the latter, this tells us nothing about its truth or falsehood of her hotness relative to her mom.
Fandom Snobbery is the act of acting in a condescending manner to someone inside or outside of your fandom. Usually takes place when fan A knows more than fan B and insults or berates them for not knowing it.
"I think that Anne Rice'sallusions to Homoerotic relationships in Interview with the Vampire is truly mesmerizing and engaging reading."
"I think that Edward's constant rivalry with Jacob has homoerotic overtones."
"Yeah, but you like twilight, and that's shit. So fuck off."
