It's good looking bling.
Did anyone else see this LATimes story on the writers/creators of Grey's Anatomy ? [link]

You're already equating expensive with high class
I think expensive is equated with high class as the general concept of social class in the U.S.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But that's precisely the point that Jessica is questioning.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think expensive is associated with high-class. Not equated.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Obviously, money is a big part of class, but when you talk about bling -- do people think that famous rappers with platinum teeth and diamond everything are upper-class? They're just rich.

Yep. Something that Pete tries not to think about.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I always vaguely thought that "class" means cultural touchstones, which can be determined by money, but aren't necessarily. Any shmuck with $1000 can travel to Europe; but people take different things away from a European voyage depending on the programming of their parents/friends/coworkers.
I come from museum-goers, e.g. You go to a city, you find out what museums it has, just automatically. Others would be finding out what sporting event is going on that weekend, or where the best food is, or the wildest parties.
Among two museum-default people, I have seen money be a power issue, and a divider; but if you default to different things, it's less clear where the power/dividing line is.
