The is one of those ways in which distinctions of social class are invisible to those at the lower levels. There is nothing harder or more expensive about using onions or garlic or fresh herbs, which can be easily grown anywhere. But it is these little things about how we live: how we cook, whether we read, how we speak and other small grace notes that signify social class. I am sure that at whatever level you occupy there are signifiers of the social classes above you that we may be ignorant of. One example may be discussing social class!

When I worked at a video store, I would often bring random 80s films home at the end of my shift and lie awake in front of the VCR bathed in blue light watching stuff I knew nothing about. I think what I like most about 1980s cinema is that this was a period, I suspect, when movie-going by teens was at its zenith. Whether horror films with practical effects or the coming of age films the 80s are known for, you could find so many little gems. There was a cultural confidence and serious consideration of young people and what might appeal to them. There was one particular film, "Wild Life", written by Cameron Crowe, who is best known for "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" and the uber-classic "Say Anything", that I found charming. The Chris Penn character coins his own slogan during the film, "it's casual", that I tried to use for some time after, though the film was a decade or more older by then.
