I'm glad I stole mine from a roommate in 1994.

My previous pair lasted about 8 years, it broke my heart when I recently had to buy a new pair.

I prefer ten eye. I've actually got a pair of non-docs. Not leather, but synthetic. Made at an actual English Doc factory, though, so it's not that Chinese shit. They ain't pretty, but they're solid steel toe, which is just what I need for kicking people who are different from me. :cool:

I used to buy Docs but find these days they just wear out too fast.
Got a cracking leather bike jacket from George White motorcycles in England. They often have sales on.

I find goofy, regretful shit I did before the age of thirteen charming. Now that I'm nearly 23, my memory of almost everything from the beginning of that decade up to about ten to fifteen minutes ago is like a malevolent clip show programmed by someone who aims to make me feel like the biggest loser in the world, projected on a continual loop on to the back of my eyelids. I think it's a big reason why people say 'Live in the present.' It's to stop you blushing when you think about how you were as you were still baking, before you were finished.

The generation before mine almost unanimously decided to grow up in public, online. Which, unlike every other set of people in history, means there's an easily accessed record of what they were like aged 16. Would any great historical figure have had a high opinion of themselves if they could see their teenage counterpart really, really wanting to seem totally clued up and into it, man? George Washington would still be chopping down trees.
