Lighters/Matches
No matter how bad I wanna smoke, I can never seem to find a lighter. I leave one at the store, office, home, and in the car and STILL manage to lose them.

Razor
You would think that after shaving my head for over six years I’d be a pro at it right? Wrong! When someone calls me out and says, “Damn son you got a patch on your head!” I take the travel razor out and BAM it’s gone.

Blackberry
Everyone is whipping out their shiny new Blackberries. Me? I got this jacked up piece. Note to anyone else with a Blackberry: do not slide on blacktop facedown.

Bose Headphones
Perfect for ignoring everyone on the train, bus or even at work! It’s magic.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Kojima’s masterpiece, end to one of the greatest game sagas in history, reason to waste more money on a PS3. What more can I say? You absolutely need this game in your life. Forget the crazy ass story of MGS2. This is all-action, no bullshit.

    Fuck Ubiq. It used 2 be one of the best spots on the east coast like 5+ years ago but now its only a shadow of its former self. All four of these guys are douchebags. Dudes are so stuck on themselves and their fugazi Hypebeast friends. Wthn & Made to Order are where its @ in the 215.
