  • white midsoles.

    [sImage imgid=”195″ class=”center” alt=”White Midsole Massacre”]

    clae, creative rec, supra and newcomers 100styles [via], so on and so forth.
    why do these “high end” companies insist on putting white midsoles on these not-really kinda sorta sneakers?

    i’ve wanted to get a few more pairs of these wears ever since my new gig allowed me to show up to work in whatever i damn well pleased on my feets. my boss wears overly techie shoes like he has to climb a mountain in our parking lot to make it to his car.

    i hit up MajorDC w/the intent to pick up a pair of creative rec’s specifically because they didn’t have the shitty white midsole. unfortunately, these bitches were way too fuckin’ thin for my powerful manly tootsies.

    maybe there’s something i don’t understand. i’m sure there is, so, why do so many of them choose to go with a white midsole? especially when it’s not complementary to the model? is it a cost thing? somebody help me…

  • time to get busy.

    you better haul ass, cuz…

    so, after taking a look at a few really impressive blogs, i made the decision to switch over to a tumblr-esque formatted blog. i’d truly like to update more often, but i feel like the REALLY BIG updates shouldn’t share the same space as the lil’ tiny ones.

    this, of course, means that i’ll have to get to work on a proper format. that showcases top 5s, my recommended links, and the daily ongoing braindump that i’m sure you 3 or 4 readers come here for. the goal — first, a weekly update, then a daily update like this diligent fellow.

    half mandrill ((as a likkle yout, i would use (read: trace) the profile pics from the marvel universe images to create characters of my own. and, although i was never able to use mandrill’s image to create a new character, i was able to use his sister nekra as a “template” on more than one occasion.)), half mandela

    looks like the good folx over at okp combined with onsmash to deliver a video for us all.

    META.

    i’ve got an idea. you’ve got a post.
    neither one of us is satisfied.

  • West Coast Avengers: Initiative

    If instead of giving you idiotic humps a brand new book w/brand new characters, a battle against hobo-zombies, a tussle w/some throwback villains & a melee w/a new team of villains — you guys got another stupid wolverine comic, would you have bought it? i mean, i know the answer for me, but what about you humps. The Order was a fantastic book. It’s a shame it’s canceled. I hope some of these characters make it into some other titles, although, obviously the team dynamic will be lost. Pick up a trade or two.

  • where’s my money, honey? (part 1)

    inspired by Chris Sims’ fantastic writeup of Luke Cage demanding his scrilla, i decided to find the absolute best image (quality wise) from the intarweb as possible.

    Cage, Doom, Money Honey

    the original goal was a typical “big image w/ sound file” post including a link to Sims’ blog. i even had a nice little song picked out and that would be that.

    however, along the way, a few cool things happened…

    like, finding a shitload of remixes of got your money from all across the internets.

    which, was sorta perfect, because i had already decided to start remixing the picture myself.

    for years ((i think the first time i “said” it was in a paper i wrote for one of those freshman writing classes at dear ol’ state)), I have been saying that hip-hop is the cornerstone of our cut’n’paste culture. this “project” has showed me how things have advanced and how everyone is borrowing from everyone. Ctrl+C -> Ctrl+V, indeed.

    as we continue along this jurnee, we will see the true glory of samples, allusions, remixes, refixes, slight winks/nudges and everything that incorporates how my brain works.

    or, something like that…

    this is dedicated to 2008.
    2007 was good, and all, but oh, ate…

    “i need you to be the one/
    not another one/    ”

    ’07 was highlighted by hot shots tennis, black milk, gianna ((yeah, that gianna. i linked the google search because even if you have safe search turned on, she’s still the number one result. and, if you don’t and didn’t know who i was talking about — take some time to get acquainted.)), a move back to philly and, some shit that’d make John Stewart cry. in oh eight, i look forward to stability ((but that zigga zagga calendar comes a close second)). alas…
