<<Picture this>>
-teenage boy walks into TRU
-torn black levis
-large studded leather belt
-large studded leather band on left wrist
-spiked leather band on right wrist
-ball chain on neck
-clash shirt
-jean jacket with punk buttons, covered in patches(punk and military insignia)
and large back patch: Conflict THE UNGOVERNABLE FORCE
-hair spiked 5" off head
<<now picture this>>
-the delequent walks to the cashier and sets down two dark forest lego sets
that are on clearance. hehe
i did that once when i was 16. i'm 17 now and could never care less about
going to buy lego at a store. though on one ocasion i bought 3 castle sets,
one ninja, and 5 green baseplates. the cashier rang in the 4 sets and 2
baseplates i quickly had to show her the other 3 basplates cuz she was looking
at me funny and said something under her breath and then says"oh youare buying
5 of them" i just said yes paid and "have a nice day and left" she said
nothing. hehe
NTFH,
Wes
