I saw something "interesting" last week.
I was sitting at a bar and this guy and his girlfriend walk in, their demeanor suggested they wanted everyone to know how cool they were.
The interesting thing is that the guy was wearing a long sleeve shirt with a cutout at the cuff to show off his watch. It looked like a circular notch was made in the cuff, really strange. The best part was on further inspection the guy was wearing a fake Rolex masterpiece....a really bad fake.
I usually don't notice this kind of stuff, but this one gave me a laugh.

I cannot believe anyone would wear a shirt like that. Classless.

That "Situation" guy should by one of these. It would probably take away from his douchebag-ness...
