Clothing with brand names all over the place
SUPREME.
Gucci
I don’t buy clothing with any kind of text on it. What most designer put on clothes is either so bland or just advertising.
Lobster. It was originally poor people’s food. Crustaceans are just insects of the sea.
They taste good though
When they’re fresh, have been kept on ice, boiled in clean water, and served up with garlic butter they are.
When you send the scullery maid down to the shore to shovel up whatever washed up, throw it in a pot and boil the shit out of it… Well I imagine it’s marginally better than starving anyways.
Military parades
Especially for draft dodgers, imagine one of those would ask for a military parade for his birthday.
Clothes who’s primary purpose seems to be to let others know what brand it is. As if I’m supposed to be impressed you bought a Jack Jones t shirt. Couldn’t you just have bought a nice T-shirt without the branding? No because it’s all about being a brand whore - trashy.
Any clothing brand that is just expensive for most individuals to buy (ie. Gucci, Michael Kors, Lui Vutton, and others). These are all made incredibly cheap and flimsy, and you are just paying for the brand. Most of the wealthy will either buy the same brand but from their exclusive collection (not available to commoners) that are actually well made and durable, or will buy other brands (ie. John Lobb, Schaeffer’s, Frette) that actually last so long that they can be passed down if wanted. Lastly, when you see someone famous or wealthy appearing on the spotlight with something you can buy at a store (mostly super expensive like a Bellenciaga) they are lended to them for the publicity alone.
I just personally prefer to dress like Adam Sandler most of the time.
Yes, rich people tend to wear expensive but durable clothes that last a long time.
Have also noticed they tend to drive older cars too. I guess they have nothing to prove to anyone else.
My grandma was wealthy as fuck. All her clothes were made for her. She’d have died before she bought any kind of label, she thought they were common.
Anything gilt in gold. Its a poor mans idea of wealth
Have you seen the new improved oval office?
Case in point
Panther print. Gold lamé sandals. Lip filler. Spray tan.
And where I come from: expensive German SUVs, preferably Mercedes.
Food with gold leaf. It doesn’t add to the taste, it doesn’t add to the look, but rich people and wannabe alike love it because it has gold and they have trash taste. If i went fine dining and see a gold leaf covered food, imma send it back because it’s aurum contaminated. And i said it as someone who won’t ever set foot in fine dining restaurant.
Why is it an objectively trashy: it’s a simplest way to appease those wealth chaser and showoff, yet it takes 0 effort to apply it and overcharging their food.
And gold leaf isn’t even that expensive
A single leaf is so thin, that is costs only a little over a buck. The tiny piece of gold on your fancy food? Only a couple cents
But you can bet your ass that you will pay way more than that
Exactly the reason that confuse me about these trend, and we can’t even verify it’s actual gold instead of edible imitation. It’s basically telling people you’re rich enough to get scam.
fine dining’s price is loosely coupled to the ingredient cost for everything but the most expensive ones
Gold leaf is cheap yes, but they are paying for ‘the experience’
Is it stupid? Yes
But not even close to the moderately stupid spectrum of human idiocy
Saw a thing about the world’s most expensive pizza ($2k+) the other night. Squid ink pizza dough, caviar, truffles, gold leaf, etc. It looked revolting.
Okay, squid ink pizza dough sounds intriguing.
A lot of people doesn’t realise that expensive ingredient doesn’t make the best food, it just make them look pretentious.
wait till you figure out that some rich people like the fact it makes their shit gold flecked
that was salt-baes thing, overpriced, overcooked food with a little gold.
and for some reason his forearm sweat…
people were willing to pay 1600 for his shitty gold flaked burnt steak.
because people in general are fucking idiots. Only a tiny handful of people are actually capable of rational thought

Making champagne bottles pop.
To quote one of my old sommeliers, opening a bottle of sparkling wine should be “as quiet as a nun’s fart in Mass”.
For those who don’t get the reference. Nun farts are very quiet because of all the butt sex loosening them up. It also keeps the priests away from the kids. It’s a win win all around.
But…why? Popping the cork is fun and festive, and considering most people only have that experience a handful of times in their lives, why try to stifle that little joy?
“Fancy” people who have champagne often aren’t going to be impressed. Think of it this way; tourists come to New York and gawk at things the locals have been ignoring for years.
You can buy a bottle of sparkling wine for $20.
It’s fun and festive… if they “only have that experience a handful of times in their lives”. If you do it on the reg, it’s just wasting the product. That distinction is what the question is about.
When I worked in catering we were taught to open bottles quietly because the sound of bottles being popped sounds like money being spent to the event organiser and you want to serve/charge them for as many bottles as possible.
Trump.
The Kardashains
MAGA apparel and flags.
Teslas
They’ve always looked like they were a toy car to me
At first I thought it was neat how unflashy they looked, after a while I found them boring and unremarkable and then I realised they look like car examples you would find in a 3D design program.
Giant fake gold chains lol
