Heelys

stresstwig: you can come over and share some of my fish and chips if it will make you feel better
stresstwig: the chips are kind of soggy though
chrisd: they get that way in the aquarium
Niteowl: in 2014, when I visit you, you better have fish and chips ready
stresstwig: you're visiting in 2014? what happens then
stresstwig: is that when i finally win the lottery
stresstwig: and you are thinking "finally maybe i can convince him to buy me some of those shoes with wheels in them"
Niteowl: please?
Niteowl: i remember the first time I saw those
Niteowl: a kid was gliding across the floor in costco
Niteowl: for a few minutes i had that experience of MAGIC
spruce: "It's that new superhero I've been hearing about, the Frictionless Kid!"
spruce: them shoes is a menace! Kids wearing them have no momentum control
stresstwig: i feel like the adult equivalent is that shoe that conforms to your feet and toes
stresstwig: in that after owning a pair for two years you wake up one day and say to yourself in the mirror "my friends are assholes for not telling me my shoes are retarded"
