Love is a pair of sneakers
Originally written for The Man Blog
Choosing the person to spend the rest of your life with is like choosing a pair of sneakers. Initially, when you first lay your longing eyes on the pair in the store, something inside you tells you that you have to have them and so, acting on impulse alone, you purchase them without any hesitation. Sure, it takes a while for you to feel comfortable in them but in a span of mere days, you’re walking the streets with a proud, arrogant, and conceited gait only a pair of stylish, comfortable pair of sneakers can afford.Your new sneakers become your best accessory, people compliment you and your sneakers all the time and slowly, you become one with them.
However, time passes and what was once your new sneakers begin to show signs of wear–the laces get frayed at the ends, the soles start to give and the canvas may have a tear or two in them. This doesn’t faze you as you continue to wear them, mostly because of the comfort they provide you and you, however much you deny it, are attached to them. I mean hey, after all, it took you quite some time to break these pair in and you doubt that you still have the patience to break in another pair, which is most likely, never going to be as comfortable as this one anyway. So yes, you vow to continue wearing them until they simply become unusable.
In a lot of ways, love is like a pair of sneakers.

zOMG! You’re in the future!

As a 25 Year-old urban professional, one of the biggest risk I take everyday when I go to work is the possibility of instantly being teleported into the future. In-depth scientific studies that involve really complex tools like the abacus and those complicated-looking machines that do nothing but display scrolling bleeps and make weird-ass robotic noises has shown that the average human being courses through the time-space continuum at an amazing speed of one second per second!
Now, this is perfectly normal but what if you accidentally walk into a broom closet which emits a series of high power flashes and when you step out, POW! You’re in the future!? I’m not talking about a couple of hours into the future either, but like a few fucking decades! Or even Centuries! zOMG!
Imagine what that would be like. One second you’re minding your own business walking into broom closets and shit and the next you find yourself in a strange dark world where McDonalds doesn’t exist and even if it does it’s probably called “CyberMickeyD’s Sustenance Emporium Adventure Fun Episode” And its logo is a hologram of an android clown that shoots missiles out its nose and shit! zOMG!
Fan Art yay!
You may or may not know that the guys over at The Man Blog have been planning to get a T-shirt out for the longest time. Now, thanks to Midori’s orgasmawesometastic designs, we finally went ahead had the things printed and we’re supposed to get our hands on them this weekend! yay!
For dicks:
I mean come on, it’s not like everyday that you get fan art. Also, having this printed on shirts would fulfill a lifelong dream: to be on everyone’s chests! (Boys’ or girls’! But mostly girls’) yay!
Anyway, if you have more suggestions as far as what we should consider for our next shirt design would go, hop over to this thread and let us know. We’re not promising you anything, but if you come up with a nice enough design, we just might buy you a beer. Or if you’re by any chance a hot chick designer and you play your cards right, there’s a good chance that we’ll brutally attack you with our genitals. That is all.
