One who has to use food stamps to buy a rib eye steak is no less of a man than another with 2 belts and David Schwimmer money that eats in posh restaurants, then again now that I think about it-- yeah, dick niaz you're right.

This reminds me of someone once saying basically how Conor is on a yacht somewhere living it up and Tony Ferguson is having dinner at Applebee's thinking he's made it basically lol...
