    “Luxury” fashion is just a con to get stupid rich people to fork over their money. People with style will not buy this. It’s so unfashionable that it won’t even be counterfeited.

      "Luxury” fashion is just a con to get stupid rich people to fork over their money.

      One time I was on the subway and my friend motioned at a lady sitting with a handbag on her lap. Friend asked how much I thought that bag sold for. It was a pretty basic looking bag, maybe real leather, a zipper. I said maybe a few hundred. They were like no, it’s {some brand}, probably five figures.

      Anyone who spends five figures on a bag that’s not like a magical bag of holding should immediately be sent to therapy and community service.
