Computer boots come in many forms but all share these qualities:
1. at least 90% black
2. sneaker sole
3. the sole of the shoe is flat - 're-re-esque' rather than arched or athletic-ish. reebok is the king of the computer boot but i bet kinney and Kmart have also sold them at one time.
4. the hi-top is not important
These shoes roamed the halls of valley high when fb was a student. They caused squawking - alarm - disdain. They were everywhere. Arthur was even known to wear a computer-boot styled shoe at one time. They and their minions terrorized the aesthetics of time and place - the natural order of clothing, fashion, and anti-fashion. When they were paired with escalator pants (jeans that are shredded into long strips from the knee down - like they got stuck in an escalator) it was like a mini 9-11. There was a dude i referred to as escalator pants. Something got me thinking of computer boots this morn.
Here is the penultimate computer boot:

50 cent and G-unit have created this new modern take on the computer boot:
There is no moral to the story here.

shoes i can rework images in photoshop with my toes while riding the subway? good question.
Apple, get a clue man.
Fb: I must remember to thank MM for introducing me to your genius!
FB, these computer shoes look best when worn with black stirrup pants. Most fetching.
Computer boots, me remember. I remember them on the feets of those who whore acid wash denim and van halen t-shirts. But that was just my school.
PS - thanks again for all your fun energy and goofy attitudes. You and AA are the BEST.
That was every school.
mmmmmmm. Acid wash.
hi! i am feeling selfconscious the morn. i feel like i could not converse only fixate on music machine. i dunno. i feel weird. i am eating platefuls of runts now.
i am not normal.
me too, fb... but you were kickin' it last night! you are gorgeous.
i would like to engage in polite conversation at some point. i promise I can. i will not run wildly around a room and almost fall on things. I was like a wild animal. shame. oh well. now I am playing computer games - unable to go forth with relic shack, etc.
FB. Please do not punish self this way, although I woke up with same attitude. You were so much fun and me hearts you.
and p.s., remembering arthur's rendition of "Rapper's Delight: The Whitey Version" caused many spontaneous chortles today.
I missed all the fun. Tears are falling.
visions of sloth dressed like a mountain man kickin it to walk this way will live forever in my mind. much gratitudes.
oh, the embarrassment...
I know!!! She did it. I wish I had had those guts. It was a beautiful sight, it was. I feared that I looked too much like a Rabbi to keep it on for long. Self conscious MM.
no to embarrassment! I think I fell in love with sloth at that moment. Sloth, may I rap to you?
Hmm, an orthodox mountain man... interesting... could work! we need to set you up with some adorable & curly earlocks. It can be one of your many incarnations.
Krix, you are sweet & dispelling of the feelings of shame. You can rap in my general direction anytime!
The ones from Kmart with the 3 velcro enclosures= da bomb
(by the way ems, the beard-trim was performed au beige... it was actually tacked to the bulletin-board-type walls for the adornment ceremony. the cube was a fantastic mess of glitter, glue, leaf-bits, and pubic-looking hair. luckily, boss-man stayed away during the creative whirl.)
