Reply to comment by pandacorn in The city of eccentrics? by butterflybros

Yes that's what I literally believe about the word "eccentric." It wasn't a reference to the cliche about crazy rich people being labeled as eccentric. It's my sincere belief.

Ah, sorry... Didn't get the reference.sarcasm ain't great in text form.

Eccentric: a person being unconventional or strange. Words aren't just about what you believe.

What on earth does that have to do with anything?!

"we're not wealthy enough to be eccentric"

That's patently absurd. No one would ever say that.
