I wore them when I was 8 back in the 60’s. They’re kid shoes.
They look especially fucking stupid on large men, and they offer shit support (arch and lateral).
You’re high. The flat soles are great for squating and pulling. They allow you to keep your weight back on your heels, where other shoes with even small heels put you too far forward. $45 for a pair of high-top Chuck’s or $200 for a pair of specialty PL shoes. If your large enough you can wear stupid looking shoes and nobody says a word…
No, I’m far from high, and quite lucid, Clifford.
There are still far better looking and stable shoes than Chucks. And if flatness and thriftiness are your desire, go barefoot or socks.
And nobody - no matter how large- is exempt from looking dopey. Go ahead and wear a Speedo and tights to the gym, or even food shopping. Perhaps no one will say a word, but that doesn’t mean you don’t look dopey.

I’ve tried both barefoot and socks, my feet slide sideways on heavy sets. Speedo’s make you look gay, not dopey. Big difference. If Chuck’s are good enough for Eric Cressey, they’re good enough for me. Strength Training, Bodybuilding & Online Supplement Store - T NATION
Focus more on your workout and less on looking pretty, you’ll gain faster.
I love lifting in my converse, in a gym where you are not allowed to go barefoot or in socks they are probably one of the best cheap options.
Most useless invention ever: Lifetime, television for women- I hate this channel, it should be called the “men will hurt and or kill you” channel; of course my wife loves it. This is why I have to hide the remote on Thursdays…(project runway night- the gayest show on earth).

It’s probably extremely UNcomfortable to have to tell your parents that you’re gay.
This is what I Love about the net,
Hey Nards do you think you have the balls to tell Bonez he is gay to his face. Maybe you do, but I bet you dont.
So why say it online.

I’d be willing to bet Nards would have the balls to make a friendly joke about bonez being gay to his face. And then I’d bet bonez would have the balls to make a friendly joke about Nards being old to his face as well.
You’re right, it’s the internet, lighten up. I didn’t see any tough guy antics.

My grandad got me 1lb dumbbells when I was 6. You could screw on attachments up to 3 lbs.
I was a fit 6-8 year old until my impoverished immigrant parents discovered frozen mini pigs in a blanket were cheaper than eggs and meat.
My vote goes to corn. I would rather die hunting and gathering then live eating processed garbage.
I don’t know what fucked up country you come from but corn is not processed, and corn is about 15% of my income so you can suck a dick. Plus it explains my enormous fucking size.[/quote]
Corn in it’s edible form is man-made. If it wasn’t heavily subsidized by state and federal governments it would be too expensive to produce for use as feed for corn-fed cattle, HFCS, and every other garbage processed food in the middle aisles of grocery stores.
You’re “enormous fucking size” has to do with you eating FOOD and moving heavy shit. The fact that it’s corn is unimportant. It could be any other crop that was more profitable if corn wasn’t subsidized.
My problem isn’t with corn, I guess, it’s with government subsidies of corn that make corn products cheap and abundant and drive up prices on grass-fed meat and other produce.
Edit: I’d also point out that the country I come from is the U.S. and this country has so many low Testosterone girly-men, diabetics, and estrogen laced waterways largely because of corn products.

I know a woman who has her 3 young sons wearing these faggy things.
I guy I know has them in orange because he love the colour orange. He buys everything in orange.
I would have to go with those huge ass sunglasses that women wear in the summer. They just make you look more retarded, it’s not style. [/quote]
I cannot even begin to express how much I hate those Big Fucking Glasses. BFG’s not only make you look bug eyed but cover up almost every unique defining characteristic on your face. You better have nice lips or a damn sexy chin.
On the flip side of the coin, BFG’s filter the looks factor out of the conversation. I met a pretty decent girl (maybe an 8.5) on my way home one day & got to know her pretty well. It turned out she’s loud, controlling & a little psycho. By the time she took off her glasses my conscience was already screaming GTFO! I may have been swayed by her feminine grace into going for it anyways, but it’s not worth the inevitable shit storm.

I wear chucks on training days, to avoid packing shoes. I also own several speedos, but rarely go to the gym in them.

I always wondered why people would bundle up and wear boots, only to be wearing shorts that go about 2 inches down their thighs. Not that I’m complaining…[/quote]
I don’t have any problem with them showing a little leg action. I just can’t get past the fact that every sorostitute does it. Including the fat ones. shudder

They all do this at my college too, except they wear spandex and long sweatshirts.
Also, when they pass you walking, they’ll pull their sweatshirts down so their asses won’t show.

Ah yes, that one is popular here too. I’ve only seen one girl generous enough to have on leggings and a short t-shirt. It was nice.
