American Beauty – Ricky Fitts, Retailer
A midlife crisis is capable of many impulses: quitting your office job, splurging for a vintage car. But no amount of middle-aged disillusionment could possibly justify spending $2,000 for an ounce of weed. Neighbor Ricky Fitts peddles his cannabis “genetically engineered by the US government” to protagonist Lester Burnham. “Completely mellow high,” Ricky insists. “No paranoia.” Aside from the fact that this DNA-splicing weed is complete fantasy, Lester barely objects after Ricky mentions the price — even after Ricky offers an ounce of his regular stuff for $300. An arguably better deal, paranoia and all.

I see you are just a curmudgeon.
It was capturing the feel of the period really well and hitting on a lot of major issues. If you weren't of age during that late 1990s, pre-Bush period then I can see how it wouldn't hit as deep. Economy was rolling, the middle class was doing well financially, but something felt....off. As if corporate life and picket fence home wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Everyone was starting to feel like life had just become packaged and corportized but was stale as fukk.
There were MAD suburbian dystopia movies coming out that year. American Beauty, Fight Club, Office Space....all classics about middle class middle aged corporate males suddenly realizing they hated their life and needed to drastically change it.
