Right. Is that guy in a worn T-shirt and jeans, with a 5 day growth of beard a wealthy Silicon Valley guy trying to project an air of insouciance? Or some working class guy who wants to sit in a Porsche?

In this case, the guy seemed especially taken with my Timberland shoes. I mean, he literally said, "And you've got your Timberland shoes." I didn't tell him I'd gotten them on sale for half price.
