Now that's interesting. It seems that I have been misusing the term "elitism". A curious little tidbit from the Wikipedia entry on it:

"The term elitism is also sometimes misused to denote situations in which a group of people claiming to possess high abilities or simply an in-group or cadre grant themselves extra privileges at the expense of others. This debased form of elitism may be described as discrimination."

So in actuality, people pretending to be above others with nothing to back it up are just being discriminatory. That makes quite a bit more sense.
