He was bragging about how his sunglasses cost $400 dollars, and how he told me that once he stepped on them, so he just bought another pair.

I guess he was trying to show off that he's rich? I just thought it seemed like a waste of money personally.

Reminds me of a time long ago when a girl at the bar did the same thing to me with her handbag. She flashed the logo and twirled it around a bit and put it over her shoulder and did a little pose. It was nice, she was clearly very excited about her handbag. Might just have been me being young and horny, but I interpreted the situation like she expected me to be really impressed and maybe, you know, make a move on such a classy young lady like herself. Then she leaned in a bit as if to tell a secret, and I was getting fuckin ready to go, and she whispered "it cost 1400€ :P". It was like a flashbang went off in my mind, so all I managed to do was shout "1400 euros?!?! what the fuck is wrong with you!!!!", and she didn't like that. It was the first time that I can remember that I encountered that kind of luxury. 1400 was like almost twice of what I lived off in a month!
