Pleb

“Pleb” is a shorthand for the English noun “plebeian,” which means "of lower socioeconomic class"

Online, the term has been often used as a pejorative label for someone who is considered unsophisticated or uncultured, or a person that can be compared as poor to the speaker.

Famous youtuber Dan Howell often refers to roommate Phil Lester as a "coffee pleb" as he only drinks cheap, instant coffee.

Dan: "Phil, we have literally hundreds of gourmet coffees in the cupboard, why are you drinking instant coffee?"
Phil: "I only drink instant coffee."
Dan: "You're such a coffee pleb."
Phil: "Just add water!"
