That's one meaning.

I didn't even know what cashmere was in college.

You must have known Kashmir, though.

(It was the 'topcoat' part that struck me.)

1. mouthbreather
1. literally, someone who lacks enough intelligence that they never learned to breathe through their nose.

2. a really dumb person.

2. mouthbreather
anyone who you see with their mouth wide open, like a booger has clogged their nasal orifice. They just look like they're dumb, doing everything with their mouth open, with no care in the world.
"That mouthbreather had his mouth open so long that his tongue chapped."

3. mouthbreather
A person who breathes loudly through their mouth with a nasally voice. Generally seen playing Dungeons and Dragons in the school library and looking at pictures of naked anime women in the computer labs.
Studies indicate that mouth breathers also have loud obnoxious laughter.
The ugly guy with the long red hair who is taking an arts degree but likes to pretend he's in Computer Science.

No, but there are people who wait and plan and wait and plan for just the right time to buy something on it's last day for the very lowest price and they'll wait forever if they have to and they've got nothing else going on in their lives except to wait and plan for the next big sale (see dungeons and dragons above). These same people will come into a store 20 or 30 times before they are able to make a decision about anything and by the time they make a decision, it's too late and they have to go through the process all over again. It's got very little to do with price - it's more about an ability to make a fucking decision.

Look, I can't buy the TV until I find the right armoire to hold it. Back the fuck off, already.

Its actually about salespeople being a rather low form of life. They will turn potential customers into "idiots" or "mouthbreathers" because they know they will have to try and cheat the customers, and they can live with themselves easier if those they cheated are somehow the lower life forms.

My mom bought me the fucking thing. My folks have complained - and still do - that I perpetually look like shit (non-shaving, non-haircut, always in pullover jacket and shorts).

I wish I were Rob lowe. He got such boy band ass in the 80s.

I saw it a couple of weeks ago and found it highly entertaining. But the ending was ridiculous. They can't figure out what to do with the sexually aggressive woman, so they sent her to an asylum?

I did like the way they turned the traditional cliches of noble poor and corrupt rich on their heads, though. Really, weren't you shocked that Andrew McCarthy cheated on his SAT?!!

I thought a mouthbreather was one off those dweeby associates you talks in a nasally voice and has the appearance and posture of a praying mantis. Younb know, those Napoleon Dynamite-ish fucks.

Does the fact that I read an "a" into that last sentence say more about me or you?

I sort of picture you as Rob Lowe. Except taller, and with lighter hair, and a deeper voice, and not with a small penis,* but with the slender hips.

*I heard from a friend whose friend purportedly banged Rob Lowe one summer in the Hamptons when he was filming Masquerade that he was not well-endowed. But I have not seen the Atlanta video. Was the FOF just lying? Maybe she never slept with him at all!

Rob Lowe is nice to look at. He was a big draw to the West Wing. Bradley Whitford, not so much.
