Now mind you, these aren't clothes meant to be worn in an ironic, yesteryear-throwback, hipster kind of way. These are hip-hop inspired, street-credible, earnest clothes, the appeal of which is entirely lost on me (I mean, short of a lucrative endorsement deal). The fact that people are willing to shell out $200 for a hoodie proclaiming their sub-cultural affiliation with a specific sugary breakfast cereal in an almost comically hyper-urban way, that this company has a myspace with freakin 5000 friends, that we've reached the point of PAYING companies to advertise for them; all of these things probably say something interesting and depressing about the descent of our culture (I mean, when I was a kid we weren't all trying to out-corporate each other with our clothes (and besides, we were poor when I was a kid and I probably could've only been able to afford the $10 Kroger brand Frootie O's hoodie (which is really just as nice and comes from the same factory I heard))). But really, the only thing that makes this worth posting is this picture, which provides a good excuse to use my favorite tag:
Don't play me like a fool, cause that ain't cool, So what you need to do is lemme follow my nose

Interesting side note: Googling "cock scent" without the quotes gives wigsbyg's as the #2 response and with quotes it's #1. Surely there's some GoogleAd revenue to be made here.
And this didn't come from the Onion?
$40 for a Smacks t-shirt?!? A t-shirt? Of a shitty cereal? You must be joking!!! I have a feeling if you wore any of that in the actual "hood" (not Town Center Mall) you would get capped in your Sugar Smack lovin ass. Now if it was Cinnamon Toast Crunch, that would be another story... Or the Cookie Crisp guys, weren't they robbers? That could be thuggish.
Actually, I'm under the impression that people in the hood actually wear this garbage. If you watch the Smell Yo Dick video, the rapper in it is wearing a similar looking Snickers jacket.
