iMenswear Friday - Steve Jobs Edition


The big news, above Wall Street protests and Middle East unrest, is that Steve Jobs passed away. Sadface. Mostly, sadface if you own Apple stock and your net worth happened to dip slightly.


And, to illustrate how big of a douche I really am, an conversation I had with an Applefriend:

me: i'm dressed like steve jobs


black mockneck turtleneck
jeans
new balances



Applefriend: oh
you should innovate some synergy
leverage your core competencies in a Web 2.0-aware world

me: maybe actually own apple products?
LOLZ!~
i have not contributed to Steve Jobs's personal wealth!

Applefriend: the proper tense for that statement is "I did not contribute to Steve Jobs' personal wealth"

me: rearry?
me: past perfect?
"did not" is simple past
I'm going to argue you on this one
I did not contribute to Steve Jobs's personal wealth suggests that the action was completed in the past. However, I continue to not contribute to Steve Jobs's personal wealth. which is why i advocate the use of "have not contributed"

I'm such a jerk.<br>
Speaking of the Middle East, I went there! Two years ago! Which is why my New Balances still to this day leave red sand inside my sock when I wear them.



Look at us having a conga line on top of some giant rock sculpture


Indiana Jones!


I tried to wash the New Balances to get all the red sand out but it didn't really work.
Gratuitous picture of how gross the sand line is on my ankles. Oh yeah, roughin' it!
TEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have I raved about this song already? No? Yes? I DON'T CARE BECAUSE GARDEN IS AWES! It's like a duet! No, it IS a duet!
