yo dudes...well, this topic is something i was just talking about with my friend jenna and i felt like i should write about it aside from the other thing i wanted to write about so if im not tired, by the end of this i may have 2 postings on my livejournal/forum tonight and its well needed since ive been off this horse for about a month. SO much pressure dammit! well anyway gotta tell u guys the back story.... so today, (as a matter of fact it was like 20 minutes ago) i see this commercial for a reebok shoe that is laceless and its supposed to be the new big thing and i was like "wait! thats mine!!!! i did that first!!! FUCK MAN!!!!" yeah i was upset cuz like everyone of u guys knows, since i was a kid, ive always wanted to be a shoe designer for nike or for whoever pays me more and stuff. and since i could remember, ive been designing my own shoes. ANYWAY, one day... june 22 of 2000 to be exact ( i remember cuz my family was on a roadtrip and it was my brothers birthday when i came up with this design) i came up with a shoe that i felt would be revolutionary. in my hands that day, while sitting in my moms van on our way to mexico, i had unleashed something into the world that would make someone rich. i had developed the laceless shoe! its a true story damn u! i still have the original drawings to prove it. I had done it first and i put the date on it and i was like "yes! im so cool!" but then a few months later came word of Nike releasing a shoe with no laces and i was like "NOOOO!!!! i did it first!!!! there goes being famous!!!" but who's gonna believe a little kid that just came out of 8th grade? nobody. but i still credit myself with being the originator of the idea. and it is strictly because of me that these shoes exist although i may never get the credit for it. u see my uncle let me in on a little theory he has believed his whole life and its weird but true and ive told people before but people think im nuts... the theory is----- PEOPLE THINK THINGS INTO EXISTENCE! TRUE STORY! and after they think things into existance, other people come up with the same answer almost simultaneously. theres ways to prove it too! way back in the day, like hundreds and hundreds of years ago and shit, people would look up at the sky at night, astronomers or whatever u want to call them, and they would just sit there and explore the sky, alwasy finding a new star or a planet that hadnt been discovered. for hundreds of years they did this. but one day some mathematician dude, in his calculations discovered that it was mathematically possible for there to exist certain "black holes" in the universe that do nothing better than to suck in everything in its path. sure enough, shortly after his mathematical discovery, someone( one of those astronomer dudes) found a black whole in the sky.. and he wasnt just crazy because other people found it too. and they found others. This mathematician had THOUGHT SOMETHING INTO EXISTENCE. just cuz it was mathematically possible it suddenly existed and was there for everyone to see... it was even obvious after a time. i forgot where i heard this next one but its in like studies and stuff that "after the answers are out there, people are more likely to arrive at them" so some organization or whatnot ran an experiment and they gave a certain amount of people that days crossword puzzle and told them to solve it and a second group received a day-old crossword puzzle to solve. as it turned out, the people with the old puzzle arrived at the solution at a much higher rate than did the ones whos crossword puzzle's answers were yet to be released. it goes back to the thing-- once the answers r out there, people will surely arive at them. theres another story, way back in the day, some dude in like american history (brownie points for whoever can tell me who this dude was cuz i forgot) found the answer to a question no one could answer.. turns out, a million jillion fafillion bucks would be given on the hit tv show of the time to the person who could stand an egg on a table (no really, regis had a tv show a long time ago too. hey, he definately looks that old) no one could do it and it was considered impossible. i mean try doing it without the secret and yeah its pretty impossible. well this dude one day comes up to some head-honcho dudes and says "hey jackasses, i can make an egg stand on its end" and everyone goes nuts.. "no u cant dude," he hears, "its physically impossible, smartass!" well he got the panel of judges to come out and they all gave it a try and no one could do it so they said "fine, make it happen u worthless son of a bitch!" (im sure they spoke like this dont give me none of that 'eddie, why r u being all vulgor?' crap) so what he does is he takes the egg and he taps lightly on the bottom of it causing it to flatten out a little bit and he then succeeds to stand the egg on the table.. INGENIUS right? well word got around that someone figured it out and then shortly after everyone knew how.. and some hadnt even heard how it was done. AS SOON AS THE ANSWERS R OUT THERE, ITS EVERYONES GAME! so ive proved it, i cames up with the shoe, and as soon as i did that, some guy at nike was like "hey, what about a laceless shoe!" and there u go i was fucked! u see theres no way for a kid who's not even in highschool to get a patent. thing of it is, nike came out with a few shoes, the presto series i guess it was, and then gave up on the idea or laid it to rest. they had surely patented the idea too. see i hear that if u patent something, it is ur product and only u or ur company can make it for 5 years or something like that... after that its fair game for everyone, if someone wants to use ur idea thats ok, if they want to make it better, more power to them. so what a coincidence that 5 years later, i see a comercial advertizing a laceless shoe from reebok... and thats not even the first one! what adidas did with their "worlds first laceless shoe" model was awesome. they one-uped me all stupid with the new T-MAC shoe! i went to footlocker right away to check that shoe out cuz i saw it on tv and yeah i was jealous and angry that other people were making money off my idea but hey man these shoes were SICK! so there u have it.. people makin money off of shit they didnt realy come up with. I SHOULD BE GETTING ROYALTIES! instead im sitting in college just trying to get by. its not fair man! its not fair! damn regis! what an ass! damn, im all riled up and now i gotta go make a sandwich!! i guess i wont be writing my second thing tonight, but like ernest hemingway did in his time, he always stopped writing when he knew what he was gonna write next so at least im doing the same.. at least i know what ill be writing tomorrow. Oh last thing!cmon now dudes, someones got to post a comment on my livejournal/forum THATS ABOUT WHAT I WROTE ABOUT.. i get like one or two comments while other people get like 20. AND THEY ONLY WRITE LIKE A SENTENCE!!!! cmon guys show me the love! my livejournal deally isnt all that juicy but hey, who else is ever gonna write a shitload about a theory no one has ever heard- and make u think twice about the originator of the laceless shoe? who else guys? who else? peace out everyone its been fun.
