It really did feel quintessentially Spade. No idea what he was upset about, but I feel privileged I got to witness that moment. I really hope I run into him again one day so I can tell him this story

I once saw him at the LA auto show. He was chatting up one of the booth babes. He had a guy with him who looked exactly like Chris Farley which freaked me out because Farley had died by that time. It was his brother.

Really? That’s cool. I know he has multiple brothers but the one I saw was Kevin. He’s an actor and a comedian.

Well, considering Chris Farley sold brake pads, he would not be out of place at an Auto show either.

Yeah, his brother is named John. And he's the one who found Chris dead. I always found it so sad that he died alone, so close to Christmas.

He was pissed he didn't get recognized?

Corey Hart would do that. He'd sit at the same bar so long without being noticed, eventually the bartender started giving drinks to other patrons so they'd recognize him

Are you feeding me a line? I feel like you're feeding me a line. Anyway:

He shouldn't have worn his sunglasses at night.

Source?

No concrete source. My driver's ed instructor told that story when the topic of wearing sunglasses at night came up. Given he was about the right age, and there's no reason to lie about something like that to a bunch of teenagers, I always believed him.

If anything, I'm sure he was grateful I didn't say anything to him. Just seemed pissed at life in general.

He was mad that he had to endure awkward silence with you, perhaps.

You created emotions in the spade.

Feel honored.

Well this is Reddit, so someone probably already tweeted it to him

In the future, try to include details like the building you were in, what he was wearing, what businesses were on the floor he got off on, and what his hair smells like

Just an office building with production companies and agents, etc. Guessing he was going to a meeting.
