    I haven't shopped in person in a brick & mortar clothing store in years. I like to shop online.

    I used to live in Brooklyn and I was wandering around Manhattan one day. I think it was to go to a book store. I saw a boutique and went in and saw beautiful dresses, the kind Stevie Nicks would wear. I was the only customer. There were two women who I assume were the store staff. None of the dresses had price tags on them. I asked them how much were the dresses. One said , "If you have to ask, you can't afford it", and they smiled/snickered. I left the store without buying anything.
    Spoiler!

    This is not the first pet peeve in this thread that is kind of petty. I know I have lost the battle on this.

    People who call orchestral or instrumental works "songs". A song is a piece of music that has lyrics and is sung.

    The title music to some epic movie is not a SONG. Most of the time, people confuse "themes" for "songs".

He dressed down one weekend before he went there, and they all ignored him at the store when he was there, so that was the last time that he went there (he went from rags to riches, so he wasn't a big fan of classist snobs who judged people by their wealth).
