Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
To live

They got little hands
Little eyes
They walk around
Tellin' great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet

Well, I don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
`Round here

Short People are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's A Wonderful World)

Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
That stand so low
You got to pick 'em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That go beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin' peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They're gonna get you every time
Well, I don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
'Round here

cost too damn much and I either lose them or break them within a month.

Had a nice pair I took on vacation with me to St. Lucia, went on this booze and cruze and had them in my shirt pocket when it got dark... forgot about them and leaned over to pick something up bloop into the ocean.

So I paid 5 bucks for a pair of imitation oakes and called it a wash.

moral of the story:

Buy your sunglasses at the knockoff shop in the mall 2 for 20 bucks =)

Just buy the fake ones from the black guys in New York City that sell them for 5 dollars (less if you talk them down).

exactly what kenbin said

arnettes are made by the guy that started oakley before he sold his part to whoever runs oakley now..better quality stuff with arnette..have had 2 pair in the last 15 years, and only replaced because they were destroyed beyond repair

sadly, they don't make the raven's i love anymore Sad

I picked a pair of Timberlands off the bar when I was tending still...held em for a week and no one claimed them. They are now mine and have been for 5+ years now. Aviator type, slightly mirrored, shooting glasses and I love em!
specially cause they were free and would have cost well over $100 if I'd bought em

I have worn oakleys for years and always liked them... They actually block sun etc plus they are very light.

M is inversely proportionate to T.

Unfortunately, I live in LA where Oakleys are considered cheap, so no free b******s for me. Unless I'm in Koreatown.

everyone knows that the cheaper the sunglasses the longer it takes for them to get lost/stolen/scratched. its a s****y fact of life.

I have Oakley's, Revo's, and Chanel...the Chanel are my everyday sunglasses, classic tortoiseshell....the Revo's are actual glass lenses, so not for everyday (they are reflective deep green lenses--oldschool)....the Oakleys are red with reflective red lenses...beachwear!

Oakley's are durable, which is important to me since I am a klutz :p
