    Shoes?

    one thing about nikes is that quality now blows. the cracking that happens on the painted midsoles now is unforgiveable, it didn't used to be like that. from 85-95 nike's design was unfuckwithable. but its been over ten years since they made a new shoe that i love. all the brands have gone in the direction of spaceboot looking bullshit though. so i only rock classics. i mean, seriously, got to footlocker and see how ugly shit is. in the 80's and 90's, all the dopest shit was just at your local store. you didn't need to go on ebay or boutiques in nolita to get the good shit. there was no "scene" either. i don't own a pair of dunks, jordans or air forces ones. my taste in sneakers is euroish. a lot of the nike shit i want gets released there and not here. right now, im feeling classic adidas styles with nice quality leather more than anything. don't know why nike can't do that. full grain leather joints with real pigskin inner lining and shit like that. why pay 100$ or more for a sneaker made of pleather? i make exceptions for the pinacle of classic nike design, but still... id rather see retros with better material and construction than 100 crazy random looking colorways with magenta faux iguana skin and bullshit like that. i got those ZX8000 in the white/purple/macaw from a few years back. haven't actually worn them yet. also in the UK, its AM95's and later that are popular. those are the shoes chavs wear. if you don't know what chav is, look it up and you'll understand why people there are down on nikes.
  2. i can't believe anyone on here is against this.

    frankenclydes are fresh. cop these, kids. they look like clydes and suedes but are more comfortable, they have more padding.
  4. http://cgi.ebay.com/SUPREME-TRIPLE-FAT-GOOSE-ORIGINAL-VINTAGE-1989_W0QQitemZ280201320109QQihZ018QQcategoryZ52403QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262 someone should cop this. i would if it were my size. those jackets were fresh. i got one in 90 that was similar to this but different colors. i had two TFG jackets actually.
  5. a lot the stuff in this article about how financial systems work is just flat out wrong. what is a "credit agency?" do you mean credit card companies? they don't really do shit, they are only there to facilitate transactions, they have very little power. most of things that get ascribed to credit card companies are actually done by banks(until recently, the credit card companies were owned by the banks, but that's a whole 'nother matter). the main way the money supply is controlled is through interest rates.
  6. you sound like a parody of a typical self righteous moralistic german asshole. it's always so funny to see some germanic europeans taking america popular/youth/street culture so deadly serious, like they take every thing else. you need to lighten up and be more like the latin people. spanish and french writers are savage as fuck when it comes to hitting steel, but they don't feel the need to come on the internet and criticize people on another continent for not pulling their weight. it's been explained why US writers do freights a million times, so you aren't really asking a question, but just trying to stir up shit. i'll play along with you though: -most US cities have no passengers trains at all or like a single trolley line. only 5 or 6 US cities have a real subway system. only 5 or 6 have real commuter systems too. -most americans never ride on trains, unlike europeans -freight pieces travel all across north american and run for years -freight trains have an important symbolic place in american culture that europe does not have. -more american trains get hit than you think. chicago has an ill scene, its not easy to paint there at all but writers get over almost every night. some of the other systems on the east coast get hit a lot too, but the writers who do it mostly don't show their pictures. also, there have definately been a lot more hits this decade than in the 90's, the clean train scene has been increasing every year here for at least 5 years now. your also wrong to assume that we don't have yards and lay ups with very heavy security that don't still get hit. i hope this thread doesn't get closed because i want to read more of stapler's poor attempts to write in english. i know you never "be lives in the states" for more than a week or two or you would have learned to speak better english.
  7. what is wrong with kids today?
  8. Re: US recession is already here well it would be nice if prices dropped that much everywhere, but so far, they are a long way from doing so in most major metroplitan areas. this needs to continue for 5 more years if you ask me. i find the analysis of housing prices in the media ridiculous in that the prospects for home ownership of young people who arent super rich are never taken into account. i've yet to read or hear any pundit or high profile journalist point out that lower housing prices might let all those people under 30 move out their mom's basement.
  9. dumb article. people did take out loans that they couldn't afford. not that that should let the banks off the hook, but to pretend that the borrowing habits of average americans aren't extremely foolish is ludicrous. furthermore, one of the reasons the banks offered some of these questionable loans is that they were under pressure from the government to give loans to more people spitzer is guilty of a massive abuse of government power. he was basically engaging in extortion. and he was paying an absurd amount of money for pussy.
  10. we're not talking about jobs at mcdonald's homie.
  11. Re: has any one noticed that spanish television has way hotter babes then english does???? yeah, we all noticed this like 15 years ago.
  12. mescaline i'm sure is banned in every country and real mescaline isn't around much if at all. you probably were given a synthetic mescaline analog or just plain old LSD. dealers call the former mescaline because most people don't know what 2CE or DOM are and the later mescaline because it sounds more exotic than acid which equals more demand and hopefully a higher price. was it a gelatin capsule with white powder inside? if so, probably a synthetic mescaline analogue or other "research chemical" which may or may not have been banned yet in your country. my guess is you took 2 2CI tabs about roughly 15 mg each. a lot of 2CI is around now, especially in the UK. it has a steep response curve. 1 cap is pretty chill but 2 pills is a heavy trip. this is nothing new. "mescaline" pills that were really lsd, pcp or occasionally other things were around a lot in the late 60's, 70's and early 80's. i'd like to hear a little more detail about what you expericenced. what exactly about it didn't you like? heavy nausea?
  13. 211 is the only beer that i thought i was going to puke from the taste alone. literally no more than 25% into the bottle(with no prior alcohol) my throat muscles got tight and i started salivating heavily, like what usually happens before puking. i took a little break though and finished the bottle. never again.
  14. NRSV were great live, they did a maiden cover too.
  15. okay, i got to check out municipal waste then. they're a newer band right? and more on the punk side?
  16. i saw murphy's law and no redeeming social value recently. relatively few 15 YO emo faggots there. i always liked shit like tsol, verbal abuse, dri, discarge, cromags... i still don't understand how bad death metal became hardcore.
  17. where i live having an expired registration is like $180. you should be thankfull.

    yeah, i know the price is ludicrous. obviously i will never pay $800 for a pair of sneakers. saw another pair for "only" 550.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/DS-2003-Nike-Air-Stash-BW-11-Supreme-force-dunk-sb-max_W0QQitemZ320220393471QQihZ011QQcategoryZ63850QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem these are nice, a little pricey though. it seems 90% of the bw colorways suck and don't take advantage of the shoes lines.
  20. my guess is ironlak outlines itself just fine. MTN is hard to outline with other brands in general.
  21. valerian root is supposed to contain a chemical that works similarly to benzos. its proabably weak as fuck though.
  22. love these ones. looks like they were done on a school too, in true toy fashion. is that floral paint magenta?

    Nike Air Huarache Int'l White/Black/Green Chile Nike Air Huarache Int'l White/Black/Green Chile these are my holy grail. i had them in 92/93 and i will have them again someday. the most comfortable shoe i have ever had. i would kill a motherfucker to get a new condition pair in size 12. i doubt they will ever be retro'd. they weren't very common then and now no one even knows about them.
