The definitive sign someone is not posh is them extending their pinky because they think it makes them look posh.

According to the Three Stooges book of etiquette; the posh cup would be the Emily Post finger position.....

My hands are particularly wide; I can't comfortably squeeze all four fingers into the handle of a common cup.

[Fozzer]

I am a posh person.
Therefore I always raise my little pinky finger when holding the handle, and drinking tea from my delicate bone china tea-cup.

Its what we posh people do.

Paul....Sugar?...one lump or two?... ...!

unfortunately they make the handles too small so you can only get 2 fingers through but defo English ol' chap.

Just another way in which the two countries are different.

The UK tea cup




The US coffee cup

This is what you drink tea out of. It's called a glass, not a cup.
