[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An immaculately kept 15-plus-year-old Mercedes or Audi. One buys nice things, but treats them well so they last a long time. If it doesn't have a CD player (let alone iPod/bluetooth connection), one must deal with it.

Going back to more mainstream unintentional status symbols:

... Genuine Hunter wellies (olive green, not leopard print or Georgetown Cupcake pink)
... Monogrammed cardstock stationery, and if you use it to thank a neighbor who handed down some old baby clothes to you
... If you google yourself and one of your first hits is your wedding announcement in the New York Times (no other paper counts)
... Ski or boat rack on your car roof
...[b] High school ring not manufactured by Josten's (i.e., no large fake gem in the middle)[/b]

Yeah well, my sister's ring from Cathedral came from Josten's and my Sidwell ring (with an onyx stone) also came from Josten's so you know nothing.

Again the difference between "intentional" status symbol vs. "unintentional" status symbol. You went to Sidwell, they did not cover "new vs. old money" … sad, you should sue for your money back. [/quote]

What are you even talking about…I don't think 1st PP knew that signet rings from elite schools do come from Josten's…whatever, you sound like a very small minded, barely have any meaningful values sort of garden variety grotesque, so, carry on.[/quote]

^ Yes, I'm the egregious Josten's poster. What I meant to say is my public high school ring (from Josten's) has a giant fake ruby in it and the generic National Honor Society logo on the side. M[b]y friends who went to posh privates have elegant signet-style rings with nice school crests[/b]. I'm grateful to the Sidwell/Cathedral family for showing me their brand of class.[/quote]

I have that. From Stone Ridge. Also made by Josten's. The difference is the school design and price point, not the manufacturer. [/quote]

PP, don't even respond to this moron.[/quote]
