Oooops forgot my major story along these lines....
I also like to walk around in ripped jeans and t-shirts + sandals. Not much effect here as most of the PhDs and lawyers in town do that....
Here is my favorite story on this - it was in several major news outlets 2-3 years ago. A guy who looked like a real down homeless guy walked into a donwtown bank in (I think) NYC. Before he could ask for help they kicked him right out of there. He came back a few hours later dressed up, and closed his account. The bank protested, but he said he'd sic his law firrm (a very expensive high roller firm) on them, so they cut him a multi-million dollar check and he walked across the street to open a new account. The bank officers watched thru the windows. Yes, he was a multi-millionaire, and liked to dress the way he wanted. |

Well, interesting story, but what the heck are you talking about?? Oh, must be the "dissed at the dealer" thread.
I used to bartend at topless bars. I had a dancer tell me one night that some scroungy looking guys asked her to dance for him, but she didn't. He ended up spending $10,000 plus that night on his tab. She felt pretty silly.

YEs - sorry it was meant to go with that thread. I must have hit the wrong yellow button.
