As you can tell, it's never a dull moment at Compound. These are only the people/things I can sneak picks of too. Imagine if I had video. Imagine.
Nothing starts out the week quite like a self-emasculated man in green pants riding a carnation pink bike. This week it was Portland''s own streetwear maven and owner of shudder worthy Destroy clothing, Bobby Destroy!
You've heard about the hood workout videos, right? Now comes hood sparring. Dude was seriously shadow boxing for 5 minutes before the cops came.
I know, I know. The pics really really SMALL(damn zoom on outta date camera phones), so I'll be your eyes on this one. The kids wearing Gucci Mids. Did you laugh? THEN YOU MISSED THE PUNCHLINE.
At Compound we have to hold bags(ya know, so people won't bump into stuff...). Sometimes, people forget them. Womp womp!
When they leave their bags behind, we dig through them. Supposedly ALL Timberland bags come with Camo Ice now.

The Week In Review: May 25th-June 1st
A new weekly post from a not-to-be-mentioned streetwear blog currently focusing on reformatting to a pretentiously written music review blog spurred (spurned?) the idea for my version of the week in review. So, sit back and A) enjoy B) be amazed C) watch while both teams play hard or D) writhe in pain.
Size 11.5 samples are definitely hard to come by, but Buffalo Exchange somehow manages to do it AGAIN! At first I thought they may have been fakes, but on closer inspection the nubuck crumpled at a lightning quick rate -- A sure sign of endearment only the keenest of shoe connoisseurs can recognize from a true Jordan Brand product.
Be aware all old blacks, you're no longer needed for tee shirt slogans. Obama is the new black: perfect for the discreetly racist progressive urban hipster. AA, too.
Little known fact: University of Oregon players received Lebron II's in their school colors to sell for exhorbitant prices represent their school with pride and dignity.
Littler known fact: They would have got these had they made it to the Final Four. Conversely, there is no pride or dignity involved in these.
[Chorus 2X: Shug - singing] + (Djay)
You know it's hard out here for a pimp (you ain't knowin)
When he tryin to get this money for the rent (you ain't knowin)
For the Cadillacs and gas money spent (you ain't knowin)
[1] Because a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't knowin)
[2] Will have a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't knowin)
