[cigawets]

Well you gotta figure out the program, taxes, liscenses n shit. Im thinking nice tourist area not too south, get hipster proffesionals for like 1500 a head. Sounds nice

Why is it that when someone commits suicide or some sort of execution, the past tense of “hang” is “hanged”, but if we are talking about putting up a picture frame on the wall, the past tense is “hung”?

What’s going on there?

What's been the Thread of the Year? For me it's probably a tossup between "Rockin Ron's Bearings Back in Business", and that creepy threesome thread.

Yeah the threesome one was a bummer . I’ll have to check up on that Thread to see if that dude ever spoke to his gf again . The Manolos thread was great . On my commute  home I thought about how funny it is . Strobeck & T.J. gettin’ bent on ig and all the comments on this board . I thought it’s funny how the supreme shops have been known to give attitude and won’t let anyone they don’t know skate the bowl but when they get dissed it’s all hell breakin loose . I also wonder how they all have time to even care about ig posts . When I was 19 i was to busy hanging out and working to give shit about anything else.

  When do they Diss people in social media though?  It's always someone hating on them.  That nollie flip mannolo post was just fucking stupid.  I don't support fa or supreme but I'm not hating on the riders (I guess I hate the window puncher guy.)

Any slap posters ever fuck any of those Romanian gypsy women? (there around Europe)

I’m not sure I follow any of the supreme dudes on if maybe Strobeck . I have no problem with supreme I remember when the opened and i went there all the time cause it was good skate shop . Oh so I mean to say I don’t keep up if they diss someone unless it gets posted here . That’s that only way I knew about the Manolos tape and I know a few people that got denied trying to skate the bowl in LA to which I was like it’s like to pretend you wouldn’t be judgemental as well . I have a curb spot I skate and believe you me I wish I could tell some people to kick rocks but I don’t own it . Yeah the post was dumb or just was board and was hoping for the arguments to ensue

The original Jason Jessee thread that Gentle Jones started. It's actually been a crazy year on the forum.

pretty much everything from ikea and apple is made in china but people gobble it up because of the branding. I wonder if they would like it as much if it were sold in a chinese-looking store. you could argue these companies design and vet the stuff so it’s different. the quality can be inconsistent yet I also had an iPhone 4 that lasted me about eight years and it would have kept going if I didn’t finally upgrade. there’s a lot of geopolitics involved in the “made in china” hostility and it flares up depending on the context.

I think I get where you’re coming from but what’s a chinese looking store ? I’m mad Verizon got me out of contract but I think they did away with them . I’m keeping this iPhone 7 for as long as I can . I don’t want to pay off 1000$ phone

[Adopts Evan Smith persona]Time is like not even there man it’s like a thousand points of light all going at the speed of light but then you go faster than the speed of light and you look back and those points of light aren’t even there man because they DONT EXIST YET in your reality because you are actually making a parallel universe every time you make a decision and then each parallel universe where every decision you ever made is playing out AT THE SAME TIME.  In some realities it’s dinosaurs that are the ones that never died and now they developed laser guns and the dinosaurs are actually literally fighting each other RIGHT NOW with laser guns but don’t worry you won’t get hit by a stray laser beam because laser beams can’t cross dimensions and we just couldnt even see it yet because remember we are going faster than light.   And if you think about it, if you stepped on an ant, that ant might have made like a frog jump across the highway and eat that ant and you never know man... maybe it was Hitler driving that car that you made swerve to avoid hitting that frog on the highway and then crashed into like a tree and died and you just saved 6 million Jews from the horrors of the Holocaust because you stepped on that ant you know?  People never think about stuff like that but I do when I sleep in my tent in the middle of New York City for no reason just to think about what it would like to be homeless.[/Evan Smith persona]

What's the ratio of people who follow a sport simply because they love it, to people who follow a sport because they gamble on it?


Edit: I dated a girl who had gypsy ancestors. She told me the word "gyp" (as in, "This stock market tip is a gyp") is racist due to it stemming from "gypsy" and the stereotype that all gypsies con and steal.

We had no idea about the brevity of language. I used to say wicked in grade 7, but now I realize I was greedily co-opting British culture.
