My Socks Are on Fire!

Saturday, September 08, 2007

I've had an inspiration.

A few months ago I mentioned a fashion statement known as the Frat Tuck. This odd way of only tucking in the front three to five inches of one's shirt Confused me, to say the least.

At first I though it was possibly a sexual thing. I'm not really sure what kind of sexual thing but that is what I guessed. However in the past few days I have noticed a trend in the nature of those who wear the frat tuck. Almost all of them also have large obnoxious belt buckles. I've seen those sorts of buckles at kiosks at the mall, but It never occurred to me that people actually bought them. For those intrepid consumers who did venture away from these fabled kiosks with a purchase in hand, it is important to let others know of your acquisition. Unfortunately in our current modern era it is terribly unhip to gallivant in public with your shirt tucked in. The solution to this problem is, of course, the frat tuck.

It is also possible that I have the chain of events backwards. It could be that the frat tuck came first and does, in fact, have a sexual connotation, and the belt buckle is just another shiny object to draw more attention to the designated area. Who knows.

I know that you know
That I'm not telling the truth

This is just one man's blog. You will read about my life and what happens therein. Will it change your life? No. Should you read it? Probably not.

I guess this is a good a time as any to welcome any intrepid readers that have stumbled here from facebook. It should be noted that there is some heavy stuff that gets posted here. I should also note that this blog is about me and my outlook. This is one of the few places where I am 100 percent honest. That's not to say that my feelings don't change. What I wrote here three years ago is very different than what I felt three weeks ago, and that is decidedly different that what I felt three days ago. So intrepid readers, I invite you to comb through the archives, but be warned, if we know each other you might be mentioned, I might have used a pseudonym I might not have. Any thing on here is something that I deem worthy to posted on the netterwebs. That means it's important to me. If something I post here bothers you that's OK. But rarely (read:never) will I edit previous posts. I say what I mean and I mean what I say. I may not be proud of what I put out here but I mean it. If you want to talk about it go ahead, I have comment links for all of the posts, or you can just ask me about in the real world. If it's here it's fair game for discussion.

Everything here is the intellectual property of the owner unless otherwise indicated. Steal it and I will have my posse of legal students attack you face. There is no fair use of it, just stealing. If you want to quote me, ask first.

Woot! Links!
