[quote=BCT]i don't know why but all home depots smell the same. i think it is the smell of progress. i don't know why other hardware stores don't smell like that[/quote]

It's the smell of the mexicans outside. HEY-O!

[quote=Weezerfan_returns]I despise the home depot. All of the employees are idiots, (there are seriously like, 4 of them for the entire store) and it does seem easy to get lost in there. Plus, i'd rather get friendly service from a small buisness.[/quote]

Truth. Ace is the next best thing, while they are a franchise, they are allowed to be run like a small local hardware store.

We have a small family run hardware store in my dad's town and it's boring. They don't even have a dog in it.

i have one down the road from my house in canada and it has a dog. they have sweet bright orange hunting hats there and fireworks.

In Wisconsin, hunting season is like a fashion show. The whole blaze orange thing is really big. hah.


What are you talking about with hardware stores...having dogs?

[QUOTE=Lukeh]shirt paint by mixing the basic "fabric white" stuff that you can get a lot more commonly with any colour acrylic paint of your choice[/QUOTE]




i use only acrylic and it works just fine
only down side is its stiff for the first few washes

i love how long we have been talking about the smell of hardware stores and weather or not they contain a dog

But all that information is necessary for making decent DIY clothes!

Well, I tried to do my first two layered shirt. It didn't turn out great, because I put way too much paint on the second layer, and the detail was just too small. I Really wish I did a practice first, but... I wasn't thinking. Oh well.

It's also for MSI, a band that everyone in the forums seems to hate.

That didn't turn out too bad at all. I've got a friend that's obsessed with that band, and since he looks punkish (he wears hot topic pants and has blue hair) all the poser kids fell in love with MSI. Just a funny story I thought I'd share.

i know these questions are looked down upon, so sorry if you get pissed at me.

anyways, Im buying a military olive drab jacket from the surplus place later on this week. And I want to stencil something on the back of it. The thing is i cant think of any bands that would look real good on the back of a military jacket.

The only two bands that i can think of are CockSparrer and The Clash. Wot do you think of these. Or are there any other bands that you think would look good?

I'm not sure what you mean by look good.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]I'm not sure what you mean by look good.[/QUOTE]

i most likely worded that wrongly so sorry.

When i say looks "good", i mean that some bands wouldnt look as great on one color/jacket as another band would. such as a Descendents "milo goes to college" pic wouldnt go well with a military style jacket. But a Clash pic may look better. this could be because of wot they wore, or wot there music sounds like.

i dont know if that makes any more sence. Its also all in opinion, and i guess thats more of wot im asking.

Basically "if you had an olive drab military jacket wot band/stencil would you put on the back??"

Please, spell what w.h.a.t.

Some dbeat or anarcho band because they're always bitching and complaining about war.

And peace and equal rights and all that gay stuff.

Animal rights are gay.

Hey there mister. Watch it.

World Inferno are gay sry.

Jack could take Tom Gabel.
