Converse Locations

These event and situation that I bring up I will try to keep in chronological order. After a week of deleting before posting and a few unsaved drafts I finally had to post this. But with it recently just coming to light in my Rl world I'll try to make a good read. So I had a Real life get off my chest moment. I will with a little background about me that's relevant to this read. I considered myself 99% straight white guy. Popular in high school and never had a problem getting women or keeping them. But ever since I was around 7-8 I always enjoyed wearing women's panty. They just seemed like I was supposed to wear them. Now I would probably do this maybe once or twice a year. I...

First off, I have a nerdy confession: I like to sing acapella music. Well, that’s not exactly the whole truth, because sadly, I have an even nerdier confession: I like to sing *barbershop quartet* acapella music. Last Friday, something caught my eye at my local Goodwill: It was a tall, flat book. The title read, *12 CHARMING SONGS for MEN* in a stock font from the fifties—like the label printed on the brown packaging of an M.R.E. in the Korean War. Listed on the back cover were the 12 charming songs, many of which were standard tunes that I've been singing for the past ten years throughout the hobby. I flipped through the weathered pages and as I got to the last song, *You’re the...

The Air Jordan 4 remains one of the most iconic sneakers ever released, combining basketball history, streetwear influence, and timeless design into a single silhouette. Originally introduced in 1989 and designed by Tinker Hatfield, the sneaker quickly became a favorite among athletes and sneaker enthusiasts alike. Over the decades, the Air Jordan 4 has evolved into a cultural symbol worn by celebrities, musicians, and collectors around the world. However, as demand for limited-edition releases continues to rise, retail prices and resale costs have become increasingly difficult for many fans to afford. This growing gap between supply and affordability has fueled interest in “reps,” or re...

I have a story to tell. So Once upon a time. “Beep” Sorry one second. “Your cab has arrived.” Right. I forgot to tell you, I have a date tonight and for which I’m getting late. Fourth date maybe. Fifth. Somewhere dangerous enough to start imagining futures but still early enough to pretend you’re “just seeing where things go.” Which is modern dating language for: “I have already imagined us breaking up twice And now I’m sitting inside the cab  The driver checks the mirror once. Normal. Twice? Interesting. Thrice? Okay so now apparently I’m the main suspect in a psychological thriller. Have you ever sat in a cab and suddenly become awar...

Hi! I've never bought shoes like this before, but I've really been wanting them. Unfortunately, I can only get them online, and no stores near me have Docs. I have been seeing everyone say to size down, but I'm a bit hesitant to since my feet are a little wide. Has anyone with wider feet had experience sizing down with these? I don't know if this helps lol, but I'm a size 9, and the shoes I usually wear and find comfy are just like the classic converse.

Hello po. back in 2021 i bought a converse shoes from this store in shopee (shopeeflagshipstore.ph) and legit ung shoes hindi sya replica feeling mo lg.

May alam pa ba kayo na mura na high quality shoes na galing china/hk sa shopee? Kahit replica mn sya ang ganda ng quality.

“In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes”. My eyes glanced over the ending phrase that Samuel had repeated when putting together the book of Judges. My mind was still spiraling from the insanity I just read over the last three chapters. I turned back the pages to re-read and try and wrap my head around the story told in chapter nineteen. I realized I couldn't stomach it again and so I decided that was enough reading for a while. I closed my Bible and looked out the window, my eyes watching as row after row of trees passed us as we drove. I tried to adjust myself in my seat but there is only so much you can do to get the...

🧼📦 MODS Please delete if not allowed: 🏕️I participate in several FB and Reddit groups with women who camp alone. I’m \*certainly\* not an expert but do try to share safety and equipment tips, most especially to women who are attempting to do this for the first time. I **** that certain safety considerations even have to be considered as an added layer of preparation on top of what should be a fun event for yourself. So, first and foremost I will say I would encourage any woman to go try it…go in small steps that help you build confidence. I recently watched Apex on Netflix; of course, we know that movies are invented to sensationalize. There’s tension, drama, injection ...

I genuinely don’t know whether I should save this friendship or slowly let it go. We’ve been friends for around 5 years. Not normal friends either. We were the type people used to call brothers, soulmates, twins. The funny thing is we used to accidentally match all the time without planning it. One time before an exam, both of us separately bought brown shoes from retail stores. We met on exam day wearing the exact same shoes. Another time I wore a bright orange shirt and he showed up in the same shade of orange. It happened so often people genuinely started asking if we coordinated our outfits beforehand. We didn’t. We just somehow moved alike. We were obsessed with each other�...

It’s been a week since the lady in white incident. I should probably clarify on some stuff from the last post before I update you all. First, Louise is Rosco’s beloved shotgun, I believe he referred to it as an M4 Benelli Semi-Auto; for whatever reason, that makes it better than most others, and he treats it as if it were his child. When I mean he treats it like it's his child, I mean he talks to it like how a child talks to their favorite stuffed animal; with care and a vendetta towards anyone who dares to wrong it. The second thing is Keaton, the local escaped psyche ward patient that lives out in the woods. As much as it sounds like it, that is not a joke, I am pretty sure he e...

Travels: 6 days in Tokyo (Chiyoda and Shinjuku as home bases), trips around different areas of the city (Ginza, Shibuya, Minato). 3 days in Osaka, full day trip to Kobe. 4 days in Kyoto, day trip to Nara. 3 days in Hakone at a resort. Purpose and focus: honeymoon trip, focused mainly on shopping/site seeing/eating. First and foremost, I’d like to say the Golden Route was gorgeous. Definitely a tourist heavy route but absolutely lovely and incredibly enjoyable. We arrived at the beginning of GW and spent nearly the entirety of it in Tokyo, something I will get into momentarily. I speak loose Japanese and can’t read quite literally any of it but we found that there were VERY few times wh...

(So i wrote this story when I was a kid and have cleaned it up a little bit, grammar wise mostly but didn't want to change too much because it's from when i was a kid and it has some charm i think in that. I used to like creative writing but am terribly antisocial and never really shared my stories but with family. I stopped years ago and this is one of the only things I managed to save from my childhood and thought that this place might be a good spot to share it. I would love to get into story telling again. Also I'm sorry if this isn't horror enough, I thought it felt pretty dreadful so i figured it might be a good fit but if not sorry.) CW - Not sure what to put...

​ Sprinkles of rain pelted me as I raced down the river road. I wheezed, trying to keep up with Claire. Every breath tasted like dust kicked up by her red Schwinn, even after she vanished around the curve up ahead. My chest tightened. I thought of my mom constantly nagging me to always carry my inhaler, even though it’d been years since my last asthma attack.  Around the bend, Claire swerved from one side of River Road to the other, not pedaling. Her bike's sprocket sang mechanically, “I’m waiting for you.”  “Hurry up,” she shouted.  I left behind my own cloud of dust as I sped up. Gravel crunched under my tires. Leaning over the handlebars, I balanced o...

I was listening to a conversation between a few parents recently about school performance outfits for children and honestly everybody sounded tired before the shopping had even properly started. One parent kept saying the costume itself looked affordable initially but then matching accessories shoes headpieces and last minute alterations quietly pushed the total much higher. Another person mentioned ordering online once and receiving fabric that looked shiny in photos but felt uncomfortable and heavy once the children actually wore it during rehearsals. That discussion reminded me how complicated kids performance clothing becomes because parents are usually balancing comfort modesty durabili...

The Tourist Board asked us to stop calling them rules after the woman from Westport complained, which was how Sheriff Walter J. Doyle ended up standing at the Visitor Center desk on a gray October morning, reading three printed pages about “unwelcoming language,” “luxury heritage tourism,” and the emotional impact of municipal signage. The woman’s point, as far as I understood it, was that the word rules made Mourner’s Crossing sound unsafe. This was apparently bad for the new restaurant week campaign, the Witchwood walking tours, and the twelve-dollar strawberry-rhubarb hand pies now being sold in waxed paper sleeves at every business with a counter. Sheriff Doyle read the com...
