Oxford Kid

*edit*
There are certain groups of people who THINK that they're Oxford kids but trust me if you are any of the following you are not a true Oxford kid.

-A student at Cheney, Gregs, Matthew Arnorld or Spires who doesn't live in the city centre
-A boarder who doesn't have strong associations with Oxford when on leave
-Anyone from the suburbs or suburbia

I can't believe she thinks she can pass for an Oxford Kid in her Cheney uniform!
