Nothing quasi-creepy about it. Dov Charney and his teen porn ads are 100% creepy.

One night I went to Rickshaw Stop and saw some Q-tip looking girls in American Apparel "getting down" on the dance floor and I laughed and laughed and laughed and then I stopped because I realized I'm no longer hip, but old and post-hip and then I got sad and went home and sat in a dark corner of my room, drinking heavily, while sadly singing Melissa Manchester's "Don't Cry Out Loud" until I passed out.

I asked some mark sanchez reps about this when they doorknocked me yesterday and they told me that AA has actually had the lease on that space for years and not been able to move in because the zoning on valencia doesn't allow franchises. they seemed to think that AA will never be able to open up there due to that, and pointed out how irritating it is that they've been paying like 8k a month to hold the space and keep it from other local businesses that the neighbs might actually want.

@sissa: "and now i'll have to walk past it every time i want to rent a movie." Holy shit, I hope you're joking. Tell me, what are your criteria for a business that is acceptable for you to walk past on your way to Blockbuster.

the clothes feel good, the wages they pay make me feel good, and the Ads help me fall to sleep. So let's get started w/ the new hipster hegemony (death to shoebiz!)
