So what your saying is that it shits on it like you did all the people who were buying stuff from you. I understand totally now.

More like your fits....how everything is shit

P.S. Try "you're" next time there champ

To be frank the Jcrew chambray shits on the Supreme Chambray this season. Jcrew is thicker and doesn't feel so thin for the money compared to a $118 Supreme Chambray.

Nice pick ups Pennyoka!

^^^Actually saw him in Ann Arbor and was very amazing. The best free show I ever been to.

On the real, I feel like some of these fucking electronics these days are on self destruct timers and set to fuck up shortly after the warranty is over...if only I could prove it.

Coming from the OEM side of the auto industry I can almost guarantee this, most companies follow most others practices and until all this bullshit came about with them they had what we called "planned failure" causing you to spend money on repairs or just making you buy a new car all together.

Shit fffut I think you should call Microsoft and bitch a fit see if that gets you anywhere. I did it twice today and I got what I wanted both times!!!

Fucking midterms that never end

Hello Superdenim.

Start of long, rambling first post...

I've been lurking around here for a while now and just proxied a pair of S5000VX. I went one size down, to a 29, expecting them to measure 31 raw, but I got a Lot 10 pair which were just over 29 raw. I can just about button them up and wore them for about 15 mintues and they've already stretched to around 30 (and fit pretty well). Anybody else size down 1 on a Lot 10? Hows the fit after washing/soaking? I figure even if I cold soak now they will get a hot wash in the machine at some point, so if they are going to end up too small I will sell them on now and get a bigger size. From what I've read they will stretch a lot in the waist, but what about the thighs? Any advice is much appreciated.

End long rambling first post...

Either cold soak and just rock them as is OR hot soak them with you wearing them and then wait for them to dry and rock them for a day or two non stop and you should be fine.

Anomolouslynice, the shoe in question is actually a hobnail boot in what looks like a size 16 or 17. I thought it must be yours, but possibly it was left by a clown that blew through here a few weeks back.

Satya- cuffs look good. Room could use a few bare wires sticking out of a wall or maybe a half-eaten sandwich on a plate on the floor.

Johnny is that you?.......no hate, great fit!!! The likeness is scary IMO, +rep for fit though!!!

The Strongholds are getting a wash break since I got burger juice on them at Kuma's Korner the other night so...

Savior the juices Jimmy, savior them.....so good

yes you are!!!!

^^^THe dirty dirty hipsters are in Pilsen and Logan Square, if you want the wannabe CWG/Hipster girls then we have to hit up Wicker Park!!!

Not to derail this existential hot dog discussion, but it took me a few days to see my first jailbait corny white girl in the city — they must have all gone home for spring break.

If you want that then you will find some in Wicker but WAY more in Lincoln Park, Wrigleyville.....dumb drunk college girls, thats if they aren't on spring break as stated before. So shoot for Wicker Park!!!

Where you gonna be partying at in the CHI?

If it was me and you want a good mix either Logan Sq., Wicker Park, or Old Town, Lincoln Park and Wrigleyville is too college frat boy which I don't think is your style but I could be dead wrong Sid.

^^^It is a great book. I have another one that I found very inspiring that had a ton of Helio Gracie references in it as to him changing some of the movements in tradition Jiu-jitsu that then carries over into this book.

Man, wonderful photos on the last couple pages, guys. This is definitely the best thread.

It got up to a balmy 45F here today, so I thought "what better day to get the motorbike out for the first time??".

First step: Air in the tires.

Next, charge the battery.

Consult the manual. The frame, engine, and manual all have matching serial numbers.

Check the oil. She didn't lose a drop over winter. I should change it out soon, but I just want to get it running today...

Bowls look super clean.

Dust everything off. The chrome and aluminum could use some polishing.

...aaand, here she is, my 1971 BMW R75/5, with only 35K miles on her.

When out riding, one should always wear the proper gear. This should work, yeah?

Next stop was the gas station to fill her up with some fresh hi-test. It worried me a little, as a cop was refueling right next to me, and my registration wasn't quite up to date...

Did a short canyon ride in town, and then decided to hit a gravel pit nearby. So long!

Beautiful bike....I am itchin for a 49 Panhead(I know it's apples and oranges) if I can ever find one to restore or have the money to do it.....

^^^Goood looks, must check out

Detroit is also the birthplace of punk music and the most memorable city to play for such artists as Morrissey, Kraftwerk and Kiss. My friend DJ"d the Kraftwerk after party and two of them stood in the box and smiled all night because they knew they were somewhere special.

Before that there was a little thing called Hitsville. You can see the footsteps of popular Chicago music on the path that Detroit cut. The house/techno argument may never be settled but I know that the only people buying house records are vatos and old wise brothers and huge mega artists like Fedde Le Grande are making people put their hands up for Detroit the entire globe over.

and a hockey franchise that has brought home more cups in the past decade than the entirety of the blackhawks.

Nobody from Chicago is trying to hear that tho..

I am not trying to start a war hear but Detroit the birth place of punk........i laugh hard. NYC and Europe and each influenced one another.

I have never argued that Michigan laid the groundwork for a lot of different avenues of music but it's hardly a mecca. This is one of the most commercial examples but shit Jdilla left to LA cause he 1)got more love from heads everywhere BUT the D, 2)people in LA understood wtf he was doing and was open to it and not segregating his music and his way of thinking and hockey? fuck hockey, wow If we want to whip the sports dick and measure then we got the Bulls and you had weak ass Bill Lambeer or those amazing Lions of now or yesteryear or should we g into those Tigers?

I mean as a whole the D is your home but to say it is any better then Chicago is a view point which will always be coming from someone that calls that place home so to look at it without being judgemental is hard to do.

Anywho like I said I hope LA is all that you hope it is and I feel you on the lack of culture sometimes in Chicago but I think it has alot more to offer plus remember art of any sorts is what you make of it and then educating people on it and that can be tiresome but if you give up just cause you hope more people will take it in where you are going then I think you are giving up.

How about being the creator of a path in a heavy thick forest but still being the first vs. being one of the many to walk thrpugh knee high weeds that many have forged their own paths through?

Also nobody is trying to hear how Detroit used to actually make cars or that it used to be the US fashion capital of the world or how GM singlehandedly dismantled mass transit that used to run all around the city and from the D to Pontiac. How easily the news forgets those things or how the former mayor used government money to pay off cops or had a bunch of coked out hookers OD in the Mayors mansion. I am sure Daley has his stories too but not that hood or good.....

Please do take this as a discussion and not an arguement and i really do hope you find happiness in LA cause I lost my happiness when i moved to the D and found it again when I moved back to the CHI

apartment hunting makes meh hungry

pincho de pollo, platanos fritos & supa spicy salsa verde...mmmm.

From where?

I've been in Chicago for five years now and have DJ'd some of the clubs/spots that are well known or popular. My main problem with Chicago is that if you are not playing what is known, kids are threatened by lack of knowledge and are close minded to the experience. I have ridden my bike across every square mile from Evanston to the Indiana border and still think that this place is boring.

I think you are mistaken however because I am not moving back to Detroit but moving cross country to Los Angeles. I do agree that Chicago has more of a city feel than Detroit and more culture in terms of museums but the parties in the D are way better and the local music scene is amazing in comparison.

We can argue D vs. Chicago all day. I will admit Chicago has become too commercial and the open minded people are just not around anymore, you are marketing to suburban transplants but to say the D is better in any aspect is hard for me to believe outside of a few crazy parties and afterhours. Some random parties may be cool but overall I would rather live in a pile of my own shit then that place for another 6 years of my life.

Detroit is the birthplace of techno.......but thats about it IMO. It was long forgotten as a music making city. Outside of the few hip-hop/rap artists that are making it out of the D their isnt shit....maybe Dabrye but even Dabrye would get looked at funny in Chicago.

Plus you of all people should know the big hip clubs in Chicago will never understand anything BUT commercial bullshit. If you were only here ala 92-2002 when the real shit was going on but now it's all crap in Chicago and that is why the club scene sucks for the real heads and the existing club scene is nothing but bullshit.

None the less good luck in LA. Have fun and enjoy the sun!!!

how long does it take Hide to get back to you over a phone call to FIL?
