rek001 12 Posted January 23, 2022 A few years ago I'm sitting at the hand car wash waiting for my ride to be washed. My financial planner shows up to have his car washed, so he joins me on the bench outside. We're having a nice chat and suddenly this guy comes up to me and says "nice Daytona!" I say thanks, what are you wearing? He shows me a large, shiny Breitling. We exchange a few pleasantries, and I continue talking to my finance guy. The Breitling guy walks away but just can't help himself, wants to talk some more. He mentions CRM Jewelers in Miami, whom I think is kind of cheesy. He continues to think up stuff to talk about and just won't go away. By this time my finance guy is amused, and I tell him under my breath "this guy has no idea I'm wearing a high quality Chinese fake" and my finance guy starts to chuckle.

Maybe like "Hey, those are some really tight pants, but I really admire your watch." Might go over better. Just make sure you're at least 5 feet away from the guy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
