Top 3 Casual Sneakers That Will Never Go Out of Style

Good old Chuck Taylor's.  If I had to define America by a shoe, Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars would easily be that shoe. No other shoe has ever been so diverse, you can find them on senior citizens, break dancers, hipsters, young people, old people, geeks, elitists, teachers, punk rockers, jocks, and everyone in between.  They come in a massive variety of colors and  patterns to suit anybody's style, from laid back professional to grungy rocker.

 Adidas Superstars are classic.  Keep them white and clean and there is nothing you cannot wear them with.  Everyone from John Cusack to Lil BowWow can be seen sporting these and that's no surprise considering its universally iconic and minimalistic style.

The Puma Suede like the other shoes that made my list are incredibly diverse.  All these shoes have been around the block more than a few times and still held there own and I have have every reason to think that these shoes will never go out of style.  Fads may come and go, but these shoes are timeless.

Tips on buying concert tickets

Here are a few tips of buying concert or sports event tickets

1. If possible always buy your tickets at the box office , this way you will avoid any other fees that websites and ticket brokers will tack on.
2. If your buying tickets online make sure the company you are buying them from is legit you don't want to get scammed on your Chicago Bull tickets.
3. If you miss out on buying tickets check with the box office, a lot of times tickets are bought in groups and people have to return a few, its a long shot , but you may just get your Utah Jazz tickets that way.
4. Check for group rates, if you have a party of 15 or 20 people going to see the Detriot Pistons, you will probaly get a discount on each ticket.
5. Try to avoid using ticket brokers at all cost, they are in the business of supply and demand and will up charge ridiculously when tickets become unavailable for your Miami Heat tickets.
6. If buying tickets on ebay, always make sure the check the sellers comments and ratings.
7. I highly suggest not buying event tickets on craiglist, but if you do , make sure you have all the sellers contact info (Name,phone number (try and use this to get his address),facebook page, hopes and dreams, ect) this way if the deal goes sour or the tickets are not legit , you could try and pursue further action against him/her.

 photo from wtfcomtsumes.com

So one of my eternally unprepared friends doesn't have a Halloween Costume for the party tonight ( big surprise ) so we have been looking online for last minute costume ideas ( he wore out the ninja last year ) so I we found this site with alot of really great and some redicolous last minute costume ideas

Here are some of our favorite bad ideas:

Carry a quarter and a hammer. What are you? A Quarter-pounder.

Wrap yourself in wrapping paper with a tag: "From: God, To: Women". What are you? God's gift to women.

Put a pot on your head. What are you? A pot head. 

Wear all white. Attach (or paint) yellow circle to your stomach. You are an egg. Add horns and a pitchfork and you are a deviled egg.  

Wear all white. Attach old cups, milk cartons etc to you. What are you? White trash.

For a couple: she dresses as a brick. You as a mason. What are you? A brick-layer.

Tie an old CD around your neck and carry a lighter. What are you? A CD burner? (DVDs work well too)

Google PageRank

So I must admit I am very new to blogging and have been doing quite a bit of research as of lately as to what makes a blog successful, and as I am sure some of you have noticed there is ALOT of information out there relating to SEO ( search engine optimization), so much so that is is almost overwhelming (ok completely overwhelming).  So when I came past this amazing infographic (and if you read my blog, I am sure you already know I have a hard-on for these things) about Google PageRank, I knew I had to share it, it really had summarized most of what took me hours to try to understand from about a million websites.  It's a little embarrassing to say that as of now I belong to the marching band, so I am gonna start shooting for the drama crowd.

How to spot a Liar

Most of this guide I admit is a bit of common sense, but it has been my experience that what may be obvious to some is not so much for others. For instance, It was just last year I realized that granola didn't occur naturally and that it was a combination of oats and honey. It blew my mind.

5 Types of Girls to Avoid

This is an incomplete list in absolutely no order of the types of girls to avoid when looking for a relationship.

Girls who claim to be "crazy" , but do not see a psychiatrist or take meds
People who refuse treatment don't belive that they have a mental disorder, if a girl brags or blames her rage on a psychiatric disorder its due to her being immature and seeking attention. If a girl has a legitimate disorder she is find to date, just make sure you understand her condition before hand.

Girls who drink to much
There is nothing wrong with a girl that likes to have fun, but girls who drink/drug every chance they get will leave you the minute something (or someone) else seems more fun.

Self proclaimed "Gamer Girls"
This goes for girls that are overly enthusiastic about anything that is typically a guy thing especially if they chose to define themselves by it. They are doing this for no other reason than to attract male attention, because they know that their personality is shit. Do note there is a big difference between "Gamer Girls" and girls who game.

Girls in a completely different stage of their life than you
Its better to choose to date someone who is in a similar stage of their life than you, if not , you will both have to make a lot of sacrifices to make things work, and if it doesn't work out in the end it was all for nothing.

Girls who hook up
You know who I am talking about and you know why you shouldn't date them. As hard as it is to resist you have to keep it in your head, If it is this easy for you, it is this easy for everyone else.

Please feel free to comment and add to this list.
