I think that was all a bit too homoerotic for me. My keyboards sticky.

Oh God...that story makes me have an awful flashback to my college days when my friend Whitney used the toilet in the men's room at a Smoking Popes/Jimmy Eat World/Figgs show. We were getting drunk thanks to a friend of mine who worked for EMI...I went to the bathroom and she followed me in (there wasn't anyone in), but she commented that someone had peed on her seat just as some guy walked in. The look on his face was priceless, but the rest of that evening is a blur.

"You know me. Of course you know me. I'm the coolest 19 year old in DC. I'm the guy who makes those deck indie rock compilation CDs for you. I'm creative and artistic! What do I do? Oh, I'm a student. No I don't have a job. Jobs are for saps."
 
 Okay, he proved his premise incorrect right off the bat by using "deck" to describe his mix CDs.
 
 Have to say, I'm happy to (1) not know this guy, and (2) not be in that demographic where I deal wity guys like this....

"I'm wearing the hippest stuff, man"
 
 I try real hard not to say man at the end of sentences, man.
 
 ": I've got my Von Dutch t-shirt,"
 
 Crap. They already have that shite at Filennes basement. So passe and just a good logo, nothing else.
 
 
  "my Diesel jeans"
 
 Oh I do have 4 pairs of them
 
 ", and that day-glow orange Rocky and Bullwinkle trucker cap from Urban Outfitters"
 
 No trucker caps, or headwear of any kind for me. (Makes my chins look bigger)
 
 
 ". As far as shoes go, only Pumas,"
 
 I normally wear some type of black boot. I hate pumas. If i am going to wear comfy shoes I want to be sure they have been made in a sweatshop. I buy nike.
 
 
 but I subscribe to that school that a real man shouldn't be that interested in shoes. Only metrosexuals care about shoes.
 
 I sentence about shoes, but he doesnt care about them? this sound more like mark e balls, than mark e smith.

I have a pair of Pumas I bought in about 1990 or so. Rarely wear them, they hurt my feet.
 
    Preferred concert shoes are New Balance cross trainers for the comfort factor.
 
    My 21 year old sister-in-law was wearing a $42 Von Dutch trucker hat when we visited at Xmas.
 
    I'll shut up now lest I sound like a metrosexual.
 
    If you take a crap at the Black Cat, you are friggin crazy.

My favourite new casual shoes are by 'Merrell'...my goodness they are some comfy s.o.b.'s! You could stand up for days in those bad boys so those are my concert going shoes of choice....when not wearing doc martins of course.

Yeah, he's concerned about having to step on the floor without shoes, but is willing to sit his ass on that toilet seat?  Where are the priorities...
 
 On another point, where's the best place to buy Doc Martens around here?  I've always gotten them in other cities, but need to do some shopping.

 I recently got a brand new pair on ebay for $52.

Mankie would look like an Aussie Santa Claus.  I've got a pair of Merrell's btw.  They have a large M on the side and are tan suede.  Really comfortable shoes.

Unfortunatley, no place in the US...inferior product over here for some reason. For pricing reasons I would guess.
