same thoughts when checking this blog earlier today: http://www.irakny.com/blog/ ...sometimes not easy to get all the jokes, irony, sarcasm, etc. as a foreigner, maybe i just didnt get it. was tempted to buy their newest adidas shoes, but reading through their blog was a total bummer. am i wrong?
I think maybe you're not getting it. Seems like alot of typical NYC graph stuff. All the political stuff is very left-wing. I think only Red Sox fans should be offended.
Earsnots thing IRAK is supposed to be a play of the slang term racking paint. He is well known for boasting about how he goes in to stores and racks paint, it means theifing it. So IRAK is a play on that and the fuck with people name as people associate IRAK to the country. Earsnot is also known for being very openly gay but is huge and can probably beat up a lot of people on the street so he genereally doesn't have beef. Thought I would sum it up so it makes sense, didn't feel like reading that whole article, anyone with a name like ron paul is probably an idiout and sick of ru paul jokes and wants revenge.
alifeintoys, I deleted my own post because I realized that I was commenting without enough knowledge about the artist. What I'd said is that it didn't appear to me that you were wrong. I said that the page was "garbage," then realized that I was reacting in a knee-jerk way instead of an informed way, so I deleted the post.
haha and I just realized I typeo'd idiot, luckily I am not a journalist On a sidenote the guy constantly contradicts himself, its almost as if he says stuff just to challenge or fuck with people and their opinions. For instance on his blog, fuck new era 3 pages back, when on the newest one they have new derelict newera fitteds. He is in a documentary called Infamy if anyone wants to hear more of his rants or find out why he is how he is.
i was talking about the summary on IRAK, not ron paul. besides that IRAK NY is thier take on I <3 NY. Which I'd imagine refers to the fact that they steal lots of stuff all over nyc. Also they did a "Shoplifting is not a crime" sticker thats been around for awhile.
thanks collin - for the lodown, knowing where the dude is coming from, clearing things up a little! ...not much objections left spending the 200 $ for the adidas.
