Going into a bar, ordering a Bud Light, and asking the bartender to put the game on.
Walking into a local coffee shop with a Dell laptop.
Wearing a Yankees hat with a curved brim.
Carrying a Wal-Mart shopping bag.
Dressing your baby in OshKosh B'Gosh, as opposed to, say, a yupster Ramones onesie.
Reading The Kite Runner on the subway.
Wearing a Coldplay shirt.
