It's all such an absurdity of showboating and utter nonsense- a weird dance of showing off to people who are the only see/care about the subtle differences of what's "in" vs "out", "haut" vs "cheap/outdated".
I used to be so self conscious but I simply can't be bothered to care anymore. I'm treated like a novelty in these situations because I'm poor, and I know it, and I don't care and take up my space anyway.
It's like being briefly put in a gilded cage, admiring the scenery, and then being let out to fly far far away before they can taint me with their vapid consumerism. I breathe a *huge* sigh of relief once I'm reunited with my hovel and the simple but lovely life that comes with it.
There's nothing here!
