Mrs. Vandersnoot having recently inherited wealth, wasted no time in advertising it and flaunting her new stature in life.
Entering a chic boutique one day to shop for a leather jacket, it took her almost an hour to select the item and another thirty minutes fussing over the tiniest details and loudly expressing her doubts about it's quality.
"Are you sure this leather will wear well?" she haughtily ask the elderly clerk who was as impatient as the other customers waiting to be serve. "It won't stretch will it?" Mrs. Vandersnoot continued her grandstanding, "...or crack and give way?"
"Madam," the clerk raise an eyebrow, "that leather once held a cow together."
