Today is the day to listen to a Mexican radio.
Flak Magazine's print edition is now out and it's really pretty with wonderful writers. Buy it!
I recently had the chance to buy a friend of mine a gift that I've been dying to get and it's from a wonderful company called Neighborhoodies. It makes sweatshirts with the name of your neighborhood stitched on it and they're adorable. The more I thought about it, though, while it's always great to represent your hood, it's a bit of a random thought. There are so many different things for one to be proud of to display on your clothing.
Oh, like what, you ask? Well...
Hairshirts. They're no longer the dreadfully uncomfortable, raw articles of clothing the saints wore as they flagellated themselves. Now you can get totally hot t-shirts proclaiming your favorite hair color. Whether you're a 'blonde' or 'dirty blonde' or 'strawberry blonde,' there's no doubting what color's the best!
Drugrings. Are you a laid back Vicodin dude or a hard partying bubbles n' blow girl? Be sure to advertise it on a blingin' four-finger ring. If you get into a fight and you punch someone, they can read what you're hoping for for Christmas on their forehead in the mirror. If the cops ask you about it, just tell you your drugring is ironic.
Hot Pants. The difference between 75 degrees and 80 can be huge. That's why people who are picky about their ideal warmth will be proud to advertise their favorite temperature on the rear of their designer slacks. And of course, people will be dying to check out the tushie of somebody cool enough to advertise their ideal temp.
Name Taggs. Debbie? Todd! Nothing's more personal than your first name, and this unique method will tell everybody what your name is. Printed neatly on an adhesive sticker that can be applied to any article of clothing, you can order these online from me for a mere $14 each.
