Gotta love People watching... Just wander through downtown or anywhere for that matter and you'd be amazed with what you see. Recent observations:
In the year of our Lord 2006, why does anyone really think that it is ok to wear a scary curl, or a Malcolm X conk? I mean really. You have to do active shit to get your hair like that, did you not realise that shit went out of style or what? One day I am just going to ask someone rocking it.
What is the deal with like poor 80 year old Black men wearing G-Unit Jeans and sweatshirts? You know somewhere their neglectful ass gradnchildren or great grandchildren were like "fuck it, these are on sale at Marshalls. Gramps will be keeping it real." Not realizing that you grandfather was still going to pull those ultra baggy pants up to his belly button and get them hemmed and pressed, and that there was no way he was going to look sensible with 50 cent on his chest...
Gotta love the middle aged white guys in their casual outfit of a bomber jacket, too tight jeans, and their receding hairline. It would be funnier if it weren't so sad.
Why in the hell are there so many pairs of ugly ass shoes in the world? I understand that everything doesn't have to be expensive and designer, but why so much ugly shit. Of course ugly expensive shit is worse than ugly cheap shit, cause at least you have the excuse of being frugal instead of just tacky.
nothing brightens up a downtown day of seeing men and women run around in dark gray or blue, conservative suits like seeing an honest to goodness pimp in a 3 piece white and silver suit with now and later gaters on... Clean than a muh... hat cocked, bejeweled walking stick, and versace shades... standing there with no sense of irony... But brother, you can't be getting on the Bus... I mean really? are times that hard?
You also got to love the people that are a bit too fashion forward like they don't realize that we are in Chicago. I love this city but its still the midwest, we need to tone down some of the extra euro influences, you just look weird if you seem to be dressed right out of vogue. Not to mention that its a work day... work clothes just seem more sensible.
I know this is wrong but am I the only one who has a hard time figuring out why a healthy 24 year old white kid is on the street homeless and begging?
What I really love is looking out the window on days like today where if you are inside you would have no idea what the temperature is because there will be someone bundled up in a winter coat, with hat, scarf, mittens, the whole nine (usually a black woman) standing right next to someone in a slacks and a dresshirt sleeves rolled up talking on the telephone (usually a white man).
Seeing a grown ass man still wearing an 8ball jacket is why I don't believe in spending a ton of money for trendy logofied shit... I mean when your shit goes out of style, EVERYONE knows it, but maybe you can't afford to replace it just right now, or hell, do you really want to have wasted all that loot on one winter? Just say no...
It's great walking about ten feet behind a fine woman on the street and watching all of the subtle and not so subtle ways the massive numbers of men try to turn around and check out that ass. What's best is that it goes well beyond all rules of race, class, or creed. All men just love the booty, apparently.
