1. You own a KitchenAid mixer and at least three attachments and you proudly display it on your counter — where its primary purpose seems to be gathering the dust that your housekeeper wipes away each week, because the purpose of the KitchenAid is not to use it, it’s to show other people that you are better than them.
2. You have a tax guy.
3. And a lawn guy.
4. And a money guy.
5. Basically you just have a “guy” for everything.
6. Obviously you don’t know his name, though. To you, he is just simply “guy” and his life’s purpose is to do the shit you don’t want to do.
7. You receive seasonal Williams-Sonoma and Pottery Barn catalogs.
8. Because your favorite pastime involves getting drunk and ordering overpriced leather and ceramic goods.
9. Ironclad prenups.
10. Whenever you walk into someone’s Ikea-laden home, you shame them for being both cheap and a socialist.

14. You met your significant other without the help of online dating.

16. Custom made builtins.
17. There’s a brick with your name on it at your alma mater and whenever you’re back at the old stomping grounds, you insist on going to see it to make sure it’s not “covered in puke like the last time.”
