Lil Mama on some other ish

Not sure what inspired this. T-Pain maybe?

Skinny jeans and the men who wear 'em


While checking out other blogs, as I like to do occasionally, I ran across one about skinny jeans. More specifically if men should wear them. The writer was pretty neutral, admitting that he had not been exposed to a lot of dudes wearing them. The comments that followed were all over the place. One man labeled it an “Atlanta thing”.

While some might label it as gay or feminine, I do not. Personally, I think wearing jeans of any fit (loose, relaxed fit, slim straight, or skinny) with a deep sag (ass out) is gay. Even more gay are the dudes that wear them with brightly colored cartoon underwear. Why not wear a sign saying, “Look at my ass”. LOL.

My only caution on the skinny jean (as with anything else) is that they are not for everyone. So if you are the big cock diesel linebacker type dude , they are not for you. Likewise if you have the beer belly going or some hidden curves, then they are also not for you.

But for us slim cats --- finally a pair of jeans that fit. Lol. My slim straights fit like relaxed fit jeans. So I don't have a problem wearing a pair of skinny's. Hell, I probably wear the same size as Pharrell.

How do you feel about men in skinny jeans?

THEE Addiction





This past Spring I nearly cleared my Savings Account. Spent more than the costs of rent on my apartment for the month. On what? The Jordan Levi 501 package. Before you judge me and say that I waste money... try to understand me. It's an addiction. A fulfillment in it's own right. There's something about copping a pair of Jordans that compares to --- well, nothing (especially if they are limited). It's an insatiable appetite that drives myself and other shoe junkies into a frenzy around shoe release dates.


  1. It usually begins with a little research on the Internet (23isback.com or air-jordans.com) to find out about the shoe (colorways, prices, and release dates).

  2. Then a little budgeting/ borrowing to come up with the cash.

  3. From there it's calling around to see which stores are carrying the shoe. It's not a good feeling to waste time driving around, only to find out a store didn't even get the shoe.

  4. Next, depending on if the shoe is limited or not, you might have to wait in line for a few hours before the store opens. Is he serious? YES, I AM SERIOUS! I've waited 3 hours before outside of Niketown.

And I know people that have camped out overnight at Shoe Gallery. But that's on another level. And no I'm not crazy. And certainly not alone. There are thousands more out there that will do just about anything for a pair of Jordans.
