Get the converse mug.Related Words
Converse is a brand of basketball shoes. They are canvas shoes with rubber soles. They were made famous by Charles H. Taylor, a basketball player, in 1918. Since then they have become popular with just about everybody at different times. In the '70s and '80s, they were deemed to be the offcial shoe of the National Basketball Association.
Since the '80s, the Converse company went out of business and was purchased by Nike. Nike proceeded to move production of Converse shoes to China in order to reduce production costs.
Today Converses are popular with an entirely new crowd - the 'alternative' or 'artsy' kids who will probably never touch a basketball in their life - in addition to still being popular with the 'jocks' and 'preps.' The artsy kids somehow reason that they deserve Converses more than the preps because Converse shoes have become a symbol of 'individuality' (which is a word that's meaning has become extremely jumbled), when in reality the jocks or preps were the ones who would actually be entitled to the shoes if the system worked that way. This is because of the fact that in 1918, a basketball player popularized these shoes.
In any case, Converse shoes have been around for almost 90 years and are still selling, even though they have hardly changed an inch. Some people claim to have territory over these shoes when, in actuality, they are just canvas and rubber that you stick your smelly feet into.

Get the converse mug.A gaggle of clucking hen simpletons who get together to allegedly discuss important or relevant topics in order to feed their already over-inflated egos. Members of a Trout Farm are often inclined to join such pseudo-groups. Absolutely no results of any kind are achieved from these discussions.
I went down to that Converse the discussion group thing, thinking maybe I'd meet some intelligent people and have some stimulating conversations, but it was just a bunch of soccer mom hepstards whose over-confidence is their greatest weakness, because it blinds them from seeing themselves clearly.
