If you have a brilliantly tailored tuxedo and fine accoutrements to go with it, I guarantee you will stand out to the people who matter...
J'emploie mon franglais pour envoyer à la boucherie le français comme un fendoir mat. C'est une vieille tradition de yankee.
Vox, tu sais que j'te niaise. Tu sembles être cool, et ce, malgrÃ

But you are a diva, correct?
You would say that it isn't conformist here. I did mention that SF doesn't consider itself conformist.
For example, if junior makes a mint from his dot.com buyout and throws a party for all his friends, buys a few bottles of Chateau Margaux 1978 after having read about the vintage in Wine Spectator, no one would question that he is a dilletante---a common characteristic of the nouveau riche.
When I think "nouveau riche", one word comes to mind: Russians.
I use the word "nouveau riche" in the older context of the word but I will also acknowledge that most nouveau riches today are hard workers, at least in America, and have spearheaded progress by contributing to society in tangible ways. Old money in the image of the Hilton daughters and Kennedy's youngest generation just live off the fat of their parents wealth and do nothing for society. New money (Chinese, North Korean, Saudi government and their families) can also be just as decadent and dirty.
