if you didn't know, you will soon.


so first thing's first, youwillsoon is the best place to get all the goods on the skateboard industry. from shitty corporate sponsor deals to good dudes doing good shit all bases get covered. and for an example of that all bases covered mentality look no further than this article. it links to an interview with 'the worlds first transsexual skateboarder' but the article itself mainly highlights the minimal backlash against all LGBT issues within skateboarding which is perceived from the outside as being homophobic. when compared to recent incidents in the NBA, skateboarding seems like the most accepting 'sports' community t be in. the article does point out that some people are homophobic and by the law of averages some of those people will be involved in skateboarding, but i choose to see the way this article glosses over the transexual lead as acceptance rather than ignorance. so what if hillary used to be mark, as long as she can still jump down stairs, i'll call her whatever she wants

ShitHarperDid

Below is yet another reason why canada is greater than most other places. The uk equivalent should be called shitnickcleggpromised.com



the need for adverts to now go 'viral' to make them a success has produced some stinkers, for example the jennifer anniston water fiasco which failed for a number of reasons, not least of which was its need to go 'viral'. but this ad and the accompanying website is so spot on and knows who it is catering to, precisely because it was created by its own target audience.
