The Way Some Stores are Out to Freeze You

Before you read the following, you should know that I live in the suburbs in the outskirts of a city. The people here have no fashion sense at all and generally wear cliche garments.

So, when I was a freshman (in high school), I was sitting behind these two girls in math class. They were dressed in the normal, what I call "prep" style which includes Aeropostale, American Eagle, Abercrombie & Fitch, etc. They were chatting before class started and I happened to eavesdrop as I often do when I'm in "People-Watching-Mode". One girl goes, "Oh my god!!! We're wearing the same flip-flops!!!" And the other went, "Oh my god!! What a coincidence!!"
I looked down at their feet. Mind you, it was January. And they were wearing flip-flops, in the normal prep fashion. JANUARY. Ok, 1, don't wear flip-flops in the middle of winter and complain that its cold. 2, IT IS NOT A COINCIDENCE THAT YOU BOTH SHOP AT THE SAME STORE AND HAPPEN THE BUY THE SAME THING!!! EVERYTHING LOOKS PRACTICALLY THE SAME ANYWAY!!!!!!!! Here, I'll show you.
American Eagle
Abercrombie & Fitch
HEEEELLLLLOOOOOOO!!!! THEY LOOK THE SAME!!! HAVE YOU NO ORIGINALITY!? ITS NOT A COINCIDENCE!! All of the "prep" shops produce clothes that look more or less the same to me. Plus, I've been in Abercrombie & Fitch, and I practically choked on the toxic fumes they call "perfume" there and I needed flood lights to see where I was going. Unfortunately, they didn't sell flood lights so I was guided around by the friend that dragged me in there. Also, I noticed that they like using half nude guys on their advertisements. Aren't you selling clothes?! Why don't you have your model WEAR your clothes! I prefer to see great clothes compared to the "ripped" upper physic of a guy. 
SERIOUSLY!? 
Also, they seem to be in summer 24-7 in everything. Honestly, I don't want to shop at any store that is out to freeze me in the middle winter.


Ok! Photo of the day!!

This picture was taken in the evening when we wanted to cram in a few more photos before nightfall. (It got dark and scary on our way back through the woods.) This is Katy in the wooden crate at the Living Room in the Forest. Don't ask me why crackheads dragged a wooden crate along for the ride. It boggles my mind just as much as it probably boggles yours. We figured we'd go for a "Just Killed" look. (She was "shot" in the stomach.) The photo was edited by Katy. The "blood" is just realistic brushes. Here's the version with me in it.

We decided I was shot in the side of my stomach. My eyes are open to make you creeped out.


Much sunshine,
