Thinking about this one time a guy tried to impress me in a really weird way (hexbear.net)

He was bragging about how his sunglasses cost $400 dollars, and how he told me that once he stepped on them, so he just bought another pair.

I guess he was trying to show off that he's rich? I just thought it seemed like a waste of money personally.

What that tells me is he’s klutzy and careless with his personal possessions.

Me too honestly, but that's why all my possessions are cheap heh

My old roommate was like that. I gave him a mug and it broke a week later. His water bottle had dents all over it. His computer glass shattered and he blamed his kitten who weighed like 5-6 pounds at the time…. No chance.

I’ve never had a phone’s screen crack, and my water bottle I’ve had for years doesn't have a scratch on it. I found a pair of expensive sunglasses in the street (I got out of my car to get them!), cleaned them up, and used them for like a decade. I don’t understand not taking care of yer things.
