I’d like to clarify. When you say “Speed Stick”, are you talking about deodorant, or…?

I misread you as saying “Thanks late stage filesystem.” 🤣

The ‘brands’ they are displaying.

I see people checking me and others out. What runners are they? Jordans or KMart? Is that a Lacoste or walmart? Is that a real Rolex or D&G handbag?

But for me, it’s not judging them like you think.

I judge them flashing brands as a sign of insecurity, a need to appear wealthy and ‘fit in’, and a likely ‘keep up with the Jones’ jealous type.

So, I actually feel sad for them.

And, yes, I am aware it’s super judgemental and I’m no doubt hypocritical as well, as there are some things I will buy certain brands for.

Ahh, so the Arctic and Antarctica were also not kung-fu fighting…
