"Young people of America, awake from your slumber of indolence and harken to the call of the future! Do you realise that you are rapidly becoming a doomed generation?... O ignorant youth, the world is not a joyous place. The time has come for you to dispense with the frivolous pleasures of childhood and get down to honest toil until you are sixty-five. Then and only then can you relax and collect your Social Security and live happily until the time of your death." —Fearfully and disgustedly yours, John J. righteous-Hypocrite

It wasn't until she rustled back into her cotton dress that I realized just how hot and funky this day was. Damn this chick smells earthy, I thought to myself, peeling a few dark tresses off my chest. I was tempted to say something out loud and start a tousle. A breath before speaking was all it took to shut me up; I was pretty "earthy" myself. I watched her bare heels wink out of the room and bit my tongue.

Three summer days without power -- it's enough to test any relationship, however new or old. Tempers flare, makeup is useless, showers are almost useless, normal people turn into sweaty, glowering, half-dressed beer gulpers (Woodpecker cider in her case). Home becomes like a hell, a damp punishment waiting at the end of the day, very much a prison complete with a cellmate. However, in this case the prison cliches are usually welcome. I forget who said this: If it's too hot to eat, you sleep; if it's too hot to sleep, you fuck.

...don't really know where to go with this...

hope noone hates it

Enjoyable, i can relate but feel differntly. Nice writting tho.

Nah, fuck that. Levi's time is over. They need sit down and embrace competition. Create new innovative designs to keep with up the market. Not sue the shit out of smaller brands over 'IP'. Yes the arcs and tabs definitely help define Levi's image. But I feel it was out of respect that these companies made repros. Levi's should be so honored to have their vintage cuts glorified and reproduced at far better quality. Its clear nobody wants their new shit. It's soulless† companies like this and Microsoft that try to buy-out and sue everything that stands in their way.

*im kinda just jumping in here, but here i go:

Soulless? comparing levi's to microcrap!? Ahh Levi's is one of the oldest and down to earth american companies ever. Levi was an honest man, and developed an amazing brand and product. Every little thing that makes up a levi jean was an idea of his.

And to say companies now are repro vintage levi's at far better quality seems farfetched to me. The jeans were kept at their heavy weight even through the depression when the government requlated clothing production. And the jeans were strong enough to save a mans life! I'm sorry I cant site these things, as they are from the Levi's brand book and I dont have access to it anymore.

I feel innovation is not needed in my jeans. But Im a simple person who just likes good looking, high quality and nice fit jeans. I get that everytime I walk into a levi's store, and for about $60.

I, myself, see it that they are trying to protect their brand and the legacy of Levi Strauss.

I did it in a few different colourways. Reads, "know your future".

I made a simple stirfry for lunch:
