The classic “OK boomer” still gets them angry, if that’s what you’re after
This is right, where every other comment in this thread is wrong.
Don’t take the bait.
Even just a flat OK is better than taking the bait. Honestly, silence is better.
Do you care? Then you are poor and mad.
Ah unimpressed ok is probably the best response.
Sarcastic “cool” works even better.
Well “ok boomer” is just replying with another rage bait
Yeah, bait for them. The point is to make them more mad than you are, that’s how you damage their social reputation.
They can hit you with the “you’re cringe” and then your reputation is damaged
“No U” - reputation saved
Oh, the oldest trick in the book
There’s still the uno reverse picture. So many counters! Exciting!
I don’t know if you’re being serious or not.
You’ve got to follow the pulse of the crowd. “You’re cringe” either sounds like the final blow to a shaky-legged cringe lord, or the last gasp of air from a voice-cracking, 14-year-old tough guy, depending on who the crowd is already inclined to agree with and possibly on whether they know what a floppy drive is.
The bottom line, though, is if you can get the crowd to cheer, then you can get other people to cheer.
This would be my response: “Oh wow! That’s so cool, I didn’t know Casio made watches that expensive!”
Pretty sure no one is replying seriously.
Idk man the Godzilla watch in the other comment got hands.
What if they’re 25?
Then you just give them a hug and tell them everything will be ok.
You must be good at tryNotToGoToPrison%
Uuuh… ok?.. Weirdo…
Then OK boomer is even better.
LMFAO
Heh, amateur hour. Let me show you my watch.
The 3rd feature really convinced me
Godzila is more likely to keep accurate time.
All these comments are trying too hard. The only two options are “OK?” and “that watch?”
Verbose disses only work in rap
Alternatively, “And it’s a very nice watch.” Bonus points for riding the line between nonchalance and condescension while still being a compliment.
Aahhhh winner:
“that watch?”
You are awesome. Now the ball is on their side and covered in two layers of diarrhea
Or a Guy Richie film.
“Bleedin 'ell. You’ve bin 'ad mate. Blonde Tony was selling those daan the Nags 'ed last week for a pony. 5 for a ton.”
*scratches head with gun*
Ho I have the same one. That the only one you have?
“Interesting, may I see?” And when they hold their wrist up to you, inspect it closely, then lick it, make some faces like a wine connoisseur, shake your head and say :“It’s fake” turn around and disengage.
Sounds like you got ripped off
Nooo bro it increases in value bro I’m investing in watches bro
But it’s gone up $200 since I bought it in 2014!
“I don’t have a car”
A power move when you know they know you have a car and it’s literally parked right outside
Or maybe double down: “I live in my car.”
“So?”
That’s the response you want. Complete andutter boredom. You don’t care. Their entire personality is built around a weird little status structure and if you don’t buy into their hallucination they lose their everloving minds
“Ok” is my go-to. It feels dismissive because it is.
Serious answer:
That’s cool. What makes it special?
Sometimes people talk about how expensive something they own is simply because they’re proud that they could afford it and even when they’re being tone-deaf, there’s no benefit to getting offended when you could just move the conversation along instead. (Although you might have to listen to them talk about watches.) If they were trying to brag, now they’re stuck trying to explain why the watch is actually worth what they paid and you’re the one judging them.
Cars (and watches) aren’t so expensive that a middle-class person can’t plausibly already own the one he would buy even if money was unlimited. You can act like that’s true about you. My status-conscious former mother in law was bothered by the fact that I owned an old car, but when she would bring it up I would just say “I really like the 2008 model.” She couldn’t argue with that.
I feel special when my 6 year old laptop runs circles around your new shit because I know how to maintain it and don’t install every fucking app I find.
& also you probably know to spec it appropriately; most slow laptops I see have 8 gigs ram.
Is 8 considered little?
For a Windows 11 machine 8GB is getting to be a limitation. Basically for right now its fine, but very soon 16GB will be the new minimum
Yeah, it’s fine for now. If you’re doing anything more than the absolute basic, you’ll need 16+ now (on Win 11). Somewhat related, but my work computer was stuck, slow, and crashing at 99% utilization on 8GB until I added a card (my money). Now it stays around 85% on 16GB.
8 gigs of ram is plenty to run firefox and microsoft office
That’s cool. What makes it special?
Nice one. If it’s only a status thing he’ll scrabble to find something to say about it other than it’s price. And on the very very low chance that it’s not, he’ll have an excuse to explain. Who knows, he might be a watch nerd who’s really proud that he could afford that watch because it’s a special watch to watch nerds for watch related reasons and he’ll tell you all about it.
“that’s a lot of money for such an ugly watch.”
“Ok?”
Ok; good for you?
“Ok”
This.
What kind of dumbass would spend that much on a watch?
What kind of dumbass would spend so little on a watch?
(Because my car is worthless for those that didn‘t understand…)
“How fast does it do 0-60?”
About a minute
So it’s not even accurate? I’m not sure you got a quality timekeeping device for the cost.
It never gets to 60. For some odd reason it only gets to 59 and then drops back to zero.
And then throw it.

Why the fuck would I drive a watch ?
If you need to point out the watch and explain its value, you’ve already lost.
