Same! Nothing speaks louder than having a wallet that's barely able to fold because it's full of $2 bills, and being 'that person' who pays exclusively with them. It immediately gives you a unique flair.

Also, I've noticed that requesting $2 bills is an interesting test of your bank's ability to perform its job as a member bank of the Federal Reserve. I've had so many tellers tell me that $2 bills no longer exist, only to have their managers offer to call me when they arrive in about a week's time.
