@ Eason: WAYWT has been clogged up with ****** lifestyle pictures (seriously i don't give a **** that you took an "artistic" pictures of your PBR at some dive bar. Using the sepia filter on that nikon coolpix you bought to be just like ashton kutcher does not make you an artist. go *************) but I'd be very receptive to lifestyle pictures if they included you curb stompin some bitches. Keep the ones of you s'ing the d to yourself though.


lol dude I think you're confusing me with someone else

I dunno. Might go by next week and see if ****'s on sale. I know other fast fashion retailers on newbury were marked down. I only did a quick walk through a few weeks ago. Looking at some of the khakis, jeans, pants, boots, weird shoes/sneaks and shirts i could throw some interesting grunge drkshdw type stuff together with a bit of prep mixed in that would be fun. Hard to bring myself to drop like $500 on a bunch of all saints stuff though. Their boots don't feel terrible though. Better than stuff like bed stu but obv not on a buttero or ndc level. Considering it's hard to find stuff people like for under $250 it's not that bad


also, when i was getting my bagel sandwich at this hipster bagel shop this guy was giving me the internet eye ****. kinda weird and made me wonder if he was an old sufu lurker or something

Not really. The sole is sort of what's supposed to separate them from the Chucks of the world. Canvas sneaker with a comfortable sole concept.

Shows how out of touch I am. I suggest you get with the program and slam a few immediately prior to your next fit pic.

I find Chucks to be extremely comfortable. Our feet were designed to work without the aid of shoes. The idea that shoes should isolate you from the ground so thoroughly appears contrary to biology. Several studies have even shown that runners whom wear no shoes experience fewer foot injuries.

Yea, but a job where you're standing for long periods of time or just mosing about the city they start to bug you after awhile especially since they wear down quick on the heel and sole and when they do it makes it worse. If you're just wearing them to the store or to go shopping or go to a bar not a big deal though. I like comfy shoes too but unless i'm gonna be standing or walking around all day i don't mind that much.

Oh ****, I was totally lost until I actually looked at the books on the table. You just went up a notch in my non-existent book.

It's harder to injure yourself when you're running in a style where all the shock is absorbed through the arch of your foot through the achilles to your calves instead of just slamming your heels on the ground. Lower center of gravity and your toes acting as stabilizers makes it much more difficult to roll your ankles if you're clumsy like that too.

Some asshole Korean guy was cheering each time Uruguay got a goal and looked pissed when Korea got theirs. Needless to say, that guy got punched in the face quite a few times and cops had to come down to the bar. After that I woke up in my house with a broken bathroom sink. Guess I couldn't handle the USA game. Soju+beer really hits you hard 20 minutes later.
