only few month ago i discovered his music, not remembering him being an actor for jarmusch. 

he is the rebirth of the cool  

considering his clothing, unfortunately it is almost impossible finding such great high waisted trousers today

[tchengaa]

just a quick question. i didnt turn my jeans inside out when i put it into washing machine, and some vertical fade lines appear. are there any ways to get rid of those unwanted fades? thx

[beautiful_FrEaK]

No. Just wear the jeans until the rest of the fabric catches up

My boy and i just started watching stranger things. My boy became obsessed with the style in that show. Reminds me of how I used to watch telivision as a kid.

I have to say, it looks pretty cool

They can be avoided by removing your jeans from the machine before the spin cycle starts or don't leave them sitting damp in the machine.

...but as b_F says

I am a "The Expanse" fanatic. It might be the best SciFi / SpaceOp TV show ever made, along with the first 2 seasons of the 2004 BSG...

[Maynard Friedman]

Even better than Avenue 5?!

Is it just me or does the corona-virus remind you of the chupa chups lolly displays in the supermarket?

I love that show. It's probably my favorite show that is currently running. I'm impressed how they have tried to make the show more scientifically realistic in a lot of ways and made that actually make the show more interesting instead of more confusing and/or boring.

Ive been reading about Crypto Art and to a greater extent Non-Fungible Tokens.

What the flip! folks parting with millions of actual pounds for something which only exists on the internet

It makes cryptocurrency sound like money in the bank

Phonetically ive heard folks pronounce Evisu as Evi-sue and/or Evi-shu so what's the correct pronunciation?

Ive never been an Evisu dude so never really known the truth

Some lads from the UK might get all dewy-eyed over this one..

Vintage 506xx from The Duffer of St George, made in JP from Japanese denim

I’m digging the new Iron Heart micro fleece drops. Think I’ll have to nab one before they disappear. Although, anyone notice they’re the same colors as the Nintendo Switch? Surely a coincidence but amusing nonetheless

A nice but all to brief recollection of mid 80's Sheff by Rachel Genn

goz = spit btw

[MJF9]

^ could be the mid-80s in a number of UK cities, for girls and boys

'and fought because we had to' is evocative

No video and camera phones or online profiles to beware in them days

[Maynard Friedman]

Goz = gob

[Double 0 Soul]

Gobbing = 70's

Gozzing = early 80's

Flobbing = late 80's

At least t'was the lingo up north

Evolution of language init! you need to move with the times you old spittleasaorus..

[Dr_Heech]

^'Gobbing' for the south in the late 1970's.

Well in and around Newbury/Reading area anyway..

Did anyone see that documentary at the weekend 'Twin Sisters, A World Apart'

It's years old...about twin girls adopted by two different families from an orphanage in China back in 2004, one family from a little fishing village in Norway and t'other from California, it was a right tearjerker!
