Mainly comfort and durability. I mean, could they replace jeans for day-to-day wear, or are we talking strictly non-jeans type wearing.

duckman2000 · « **Reply #601 on:** March 11, 2010, 01:28:07 AM »

Yeah, it's definitely everyday clothing. Except with plenty of pockets and a more light weight material.

Actually, I saw a review up the other day

Longest pant review ever.

I'm guessing he has many strong sons back at the compound. And many daughte^^^wives as well.

I was gonna say, I wonder if he has any pants unpackaging videos? And does he frequent a forum where denim jean wearers troll khaki pant aficionados?

Bebpo · « **Reply #610 on:** March 11, 2010, 01:38:49 PM »

very annoyed that to get the $10 off coupon on princess & the frog from disney.com you have to have a printer. I try to do a document printer as my default printer so it just shows me the damn coupon so I can use the number at amazon, but it doesn't support that.

I don't have a printer :\

Bebpo · « **Reply #611 on:** March 11, 2010, 01:54:46 PM »

Thanks Green Man,
I have no idea really.

I'm thinking maybe I should just e-mail amazon customer support with a link to the coupon page and see if that's good enough for them.

Bebpo · « **Reply #612 on:** March 11, 2010, 03:09:37 PM »

Amazon wouldn't take it, they said they recognize the offer but they aren't a participating retailer in the promotion. Which is weird because I know people got them to take the $10 off Ponyo from Disney coupon (I didn't find out about that one until too late).

Will get my brother to print the actual coupon and buy it retail next week. Amazon just lost a sale! booo

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #613 on:** March 11, 2010, 04:20:05 PM »

I always use the Disney coupons in-store, I didn't think Amazon would take them.

tehjaybo · « **Reply #614 on:** March 11, 2010, 04:43:49 PM »

I actually didn't own them.

I would also say "get outta the way noob, my pedals cost more than your whole bike!"

Fresh Prince · « **Reply #620 on:** March 11, 2010, 08:38:45 PM »

That bike is above average and the pedals and shoes I would be getting would be average. Guys out there ride 8-13K machines and equipped with whatever overinflated priced goods. It's a wank but any psychological advantage right?

ch1nchilla · « **Reply #621 on:** March 11, 2010, 08:38:53 PM »

Spring is nigh, so I bought a nylon zip-up hoodie from Nike ACG.

J-bore, even if you don't like Nike or plan on buying anything, you need to go to the new Nike store in Harajuku. It's a retail design marvel, definitely one of the coolest stores I've ever been to.

The psychological advantage will come when you beat their sorry asses. But yeah, I used to have "bike people" friends and they loved spending phenomenal amounts of money on toys.

Toys :'(. To me it's amazing something powered by a man can go 50-60km\h on flats. I'm trying the median approach- enough to be competitive but not let's go crazy.

Etymotic ER6i, to replace my beloved Etymotic ER-4Ps.

This is kind of a provisional purchase...just need something good enough for casual listening to keep me going while I conduct a search for the next serious purchase. The market has changed a lot since I got the ER-4Ps.

Also ordered a ton of ununusual flours and baking stuff online. Getting increasingly into baking as a hobby.

Sucks donkey balls.

The interface just doesn't work right, and on top of that mine bricked after a few months.

Still have to send it back to get it replaced/fixed, but I never bother doing it, because I have 0 interest in getting a new one.

I'm still shocked at how good the movie was after the ghastly-looking trailers. Great OST too. John Lasseter has got some kind of Midas touch going on.

Except that because of that movie they changed the name of Rapunzel to "Tangled" because they thought boys wouldn't go see it.

Lasseter's next hand drawn masterpiece? The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh 2 for Summer 2011.

They're so short on people who can actually draw that as soon as animators finished their work on Frog they were immediately put to work on Pooh.

I actually bought things today! First time I spent money on things other than food in probably months. (Minus V-Day)

First off, I did buy food. I went to the farmer's market and picked up some organic pomelos, tokyo radishes and a cinnamon walnut roll.

Then I got myself a spring/summer hat. I tried a bunch on, as I was looking for either western style or something a Honduran tobacco plantation owner might wear, and found this hemp hat that is somewhere in between.

Then I got CDs. Yes, people still buy those!

I got Motown #1 hits, a Turkish Sufi collection, and Yugoslavian village music collection.
