Most people feel like they are both part of the "us" and "them" groups. The "us" group is people that you would find normal and are alike you. The "them" group would be people who believe different things as you and are just different from you. I believe that most everyone has felt like they have been part of both of these groups.
In the memoir "Us and Them", Sedaris lives near a family called the Tomkeys. The Tomkeys don't believe in TV so Sedaris puts them in the "them" group. He begins to pretty much hate their family. His parents constantly talk about how weird they think the Tomkeys are which I believe is the reason why Sedaris dislikes them so much. Sedaris's parents should have taught him to accept the Tomkey family instead of always talking bad about them.
