ASK STEVE SHASTA ANYTHING SERIOUSLY DUDES

That is a fly piece that is "gaping". If it really bothers you, take it to a tailor and have them move the top button out a bit to even the tension on the fly piece. For the cost of a needle and thread, you can sew a "tack" (small pleat) on the underside of the fly piece as well but it might take a couple tries to get it right.

dear SS,

yay or nay?

I asked the LA thread as well, but you generally know the answer to questions like this. Where should I go for good sushi in LA? I'm doing a training thing out by the airport and want a good place to drive out for food.

Okay, so there is this Japanese restaurant that I used to frequent often in the late 00s and Jobs would often be there (but not Woz lol).

Rumor had it he was quite tight with the owners, possibly helping bankroll the place when it opened.

They announced they were closing about 2 weeks ago.

Follow-up, the head chef has been hired by Apple and will be working at the Cupertino HQ. Crazy, as this place was pretty high-end, a incredibly different universe from the corporate lunch scene.

Last year I bought a pair of raw LVC 66501 from Tokyo. When I got home, I hot soaked it for a few hours and then air dried it. I tried them on and they were still a bit loose, so I flipped it inside out and threw it in the washer and put it under hot water wash cycle.

I'm not sure if it's LVC, or the hot wash or something else, but when I finally started wearing it, I noticed that it wasn't "raw" anymore.

Does anyone else ever ran into something like this or could explain why my LVC's are $#*#ed up now?!?

My best jeans are uniqlo. But I rarely wash them.

he was a good dude :(

the new uniqlo selvedge jeans are nice but the pockets are made of tissue paper or something. took maybe 3 weeks for my right pocket to become all holes :(

came across steve shasta's last fm page

the last seven songs he listened to, back in 2011, were all jet airliner by the steve miller band http://i.imgur.com/zi7hd.gif

And I feel like it's all been done
Somebody's tryin' to make me stay
You know I've got to be movin' on

he was an idiot

fuck u and the horse u jerkd off in

yeah wtf markers

dear steve shasta,

i will be in tokyo for a few days in december. i know will be the NPB off-season, but any tips on things to check out? i plan on visiting the yakult swallows team store, maybe the giants too.

Swallows team store will probably be more central to your lodging/itinerary (unless you're going for academic work?). That said, Giants gear will be ubiquitous in any shopping district whereas Swallows gear is a bit more niche (cf Yankees/Mets).

I have this hat which rules imho:

Hey, who was markers and what username do they post as now? What a prick haha... Was it M@tth3w P3rp3tua?

don't think markers posts anymore. he was not P3rp3tua tho

Isn't markers treeship, or am I not remembering that right?

markers real name was Mike and he lived in MA. He def isn't treeship.

Nor was he MP though MP was before my time I think.

I also at one point thought markers and treeship were the same person. I have no recollection of why that was now though

we are both around the same age. at some point, we were both "young" people, especially around here. now not so much.

Although I am blessed with a youthful appearance/temperament, I think... I'm quite a bit older than ya mate lol.

I'm no jaymc.xlsx but I'd like to say you started posting here in college whereas when I was in my college days it was all usenet, mailer-daemons and gopher/FTP protocols.

blessed with a youthful appearance/temperament

i have this too but now i'm going bald :(

feel like treeship was in grad school when he started posting? wanna say creative lit mfa? i think i was in tenth grade

I mean, even in grad school I may have used Mosaic or Cello but Netscape Navigator was still in devs lol.

I started lurking here early on (y2k) when it was all Dexys/B&S threads and had nothing to contribute other than shilling my terrible blog.

I'm old!

STEVE, do you still party bro?!!

I partied with you a couple months ago my short-memoried bro! Pizza party!

xp i meant i was the same age as markers, sorry. was responding to earlier posts.

i thought i was the same age as you, flopson. i was born in 89.

i did go to grad school but my degree is in ed. i would have had more fun doing creative writing.

Steve, were you any music mailing lists and/or usenet in the 90s? Possibly the chugchanga list?

My embarrassing music posts have appeared on Drone-On, Chug(changa)-l, Osaka-Bears, Pavement, Sp0ckM0rgue & KXLU mailing lists. Usenet was alt.music.alternative & alt.music.brianeno for the most part. BBS were various disc.servs, thevelvetrope (lol) and eventually this ilx-verse. Probably forgetting a lot, but it's best for my mental health.

There was also a NZ/Flying Nun mailing list that was incredibly informative as well but I cannot for the life of me recall the name...

Acha. Then it's definitely DroneOn I know you from before ILX

FMBB? I remember lurking there from the real MBB and was scared of that place, lol. Absolutely too cool, informed, and arch for me.

FMBB was mostly nerdy shut-ins with terrible taste in music, eg that's where M@tth3w P3rp3tu@ made his mark selling $30 bootleg CDRs to naive kids before inventing "the first mp3 blog". MBB was great, Gerard was an absolute saint for interacting with so many dorks on the reg.

put on your rose fur coat steve shasta

i am right and u know it!

ILB civil war. Even though giants hold the power, I gotta take the pirates on this one

I also take the Pirates...?

Hey Steve Shasta, you didn't accidentally board-ban Clemenza when you got calstars, did you?

I'm back on, I think it's okay. Steve Shasta needs me--who else can he nitpick to death!

Clemenza I got your Lincecum cards! I’ll post about them and your last dispatch tomorrow!

I don't think so... Clem's posted plenty since I... last took out the trash.

steve shasta will you please call sooyoung up and request that he rock once again

he can totally just kinda murmur into the mic, no biggie
