Stuck on Stupid

C'mon folks. Can we get real here? A pair of shoes is not going to make you the jive-ass king of the 'hood.

Charlotte Loses It Over Sneakers

Atlanta Gots to Have Air

Tukwila? Where Da Hell is Tukwila?

Bay Area Bang Bang For Booties

Detroit Break-In

If we want to get into a discussion about total societal breakdown and what it looks like, this might be a good starting point.

Anybody remember what Christmas is about? Anybody? Bueller? Bueller?

As someone with a degree in the subject, I have always thought that the marketing of athletic shoes was a triumph over common sense.

I've never understood why people who are not athletes will spend $150+ for a pair of sneakers.

Not an athlete myself, I can usually find perfectly functional sport shoewear for $30-50, sometimes less.

Hunting boots are another story...

Some of us remember, Ed.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Tukwila is a quaint bedroom community in Seattle. A lot of people building nice little toys for the DoD that are used to kill the improper jihadest.

People have been dying over these silly ass shoes since the Mid 1980's. ALthough it usually some gang bangers killing the guy and stealing the shoes off his feet.

Peace On Earth and Good Will towards Men.

I submit humbly that these "people" do not qualify as civilized human beings but little more than animal.

I have restrained myself from looking at these latest examples of societal misbehavior. Too depressing. I'm going to assume that most of the perps are black. Wish we had a president with the same mindset as the Philadelphia mayor...who would immediately chastise his own race for their animalistic ways.
