I don’t know if any American considers Japan as the forefront of men’s fashion, but if you’re into their styles, check out Waraku. They’ve got direct import shoes and apparel from the streets of Tokyo—no Engrish anywhere to be found, fortunately.
There’s some interesting shirt designs and some so-so shoes. There’s a brick & mortar store in LA if you want a firsthand look. Or just order directly from their site. I hear Japanese girls, the ones that actually just got here from Japan a few months ago, really dig clothes from home. Really. I’m not just making this up. I swear. Please believe me.
Now that the RAZR is old hat, the LG Chocolate phone is going to be what’s hot for the rest of this year. It’s got a slick black (chocolatey) face with red buttons and a slide out dial pad. Yes, it’s a slider and not a flip, so flip-only fans like Jack Bauer may have to pass on this one.
The LG should hold you over until the end of the year, when the new Moto KRZR and friends hit the scene to retake the fashion phone crown.
From AudioMonger.com - Brought to us by Black Heart Procession’s Paulo Zappoli, Mr. Tube & The Flying Objects is a saxophone infused, distorted, digital, rhythmic galactica. According to the band’s website, their forthcoming album Listen Up! is supposed to capture: “the sounds of horns that drift through the back alleys of our ghettos. Pulsing and pumping sounds from the trunks of lowriders. Like stories from the last living tree in this concrete jungle…this universe is like a pinball machine and Mr. Tube is the music. ”
That all sounds very nice and intriguing, as does the rest of the elaborate back-story surrounding Mr. Tube, but is it true?
Do you know why the lines for the women’s bathroom are always so long? It’s not because they have to check their makeup, or it’s harder for them to get out of a dress—although that factors into it. It’s because they go #2 slower. No, don’t leave, hear me out.
Because women go both #1 and #2 in the same position, namely sitting down, their bodies are conditioned to not ALWAYS go #2 when they sit down. There’s what, a 7-to-1 ratio of #1’s to #2’s in a woman’s day? All this training, over many many years, makes it so that they don’t automatically do their (big) business when they sit. Their bodies take a minute to realize they’re not in it for the short tinkle, and it’s time for the dump trucks.
Contrast this to men, who spritz standing up. There’s no confusion here. Whenever men sit down, the body knows exactly what it’s time for. This saves valuable time and causes shorter lines at the ballpark, theatre, and ballet.
Ah, Al Swearengen. What comes out of his mouth should be embroidered, framed, and put in courthouses everywhere (ten commandments? What ten commandments?) for all to see. In this case, we’ve got a shirt featuring none other than Al’s mug ordering you, Johnny, to “Open the fuckin’ canned peaches”. Well, get to it, you fuckin’ cocksucker!
“Oh you naughty little…oh sorry sir, yes, the quarterly figures.” Distract yourself with this Tokidoki Sun watch featuring a picture of a saucy Japanese lady showing you just where the sun rises. With a leather strap and metal rimmed face, the watch should stand up to whatever abuse you throw at it.
What happens when you concoct a system for remote controlling real-life sized cars, then give it to the Top Gear guys? Mayhem, plus lots and lots of mud.
Where were you in 1982? Well I was suckling at my mother’s teat, but John was in line for the first showing of Tron, back in his old neighborhood stomping grounds. What better to show his enthusiasm for a 24 year old film about nerds in…space—I never actually saw it—than this Adidas Tron track jacket.
Tastefully nerdy, with red and blue and a small-ish TRON logo on the right boob, this will make you the coolest guy in your weekend pickup basketball game down at the middle school.
Why have a bottle stop and a wine glass when you can combine the two into one stainless steel monstrosity? Goes great with your $3 Costco wine. That Jennnifer Aniston lookalike in the picture sure likes it.
