i just got these new shoes, and they came with a set of black laces and a set of off-white (cement) laces. however, i can't really decide which ones i like better.

so, i laced up each shoe with a different color, and figured i'd let you, the laughing city at large, guide my decision as to which color to go with.

here are the shoes, complete with my stylish flared-leg girls' jeans:


now...the time has come...make your most compelling argument for your color of choice!

Cement. It goes well with the color on the sides of the shoe. I think there's a term for having the color on there twice like that, but it eludes me.

it depends, do you want your shoelaces to be noticed? the cement laces scream "ker-powie!" while the black ones are more camoflauged.

i like the cement.

(A Post In Defence of Black)

Black says you have the (divine) authority to wear those shoes.

Cement says you're shuffling around the 'hypermart' looking for a frozen bag of peas for your vegan cake, without a date, again, crying, and ocassionally shoving other peoples' trolleys up against the deli counter, or tearing open packets of organic gnocchi, soggy with your tears.

Cement says, "I'm indecisive and my bowling partner's left me".

Black says, "I Am Ruuude".

Cement is a mouldy towel.

Black is your new favourite band.

Black.

People that are made from housing material don't deserve to be called people. Yep. I said it.

Say what you like! I say, Britain is for people of flesh, bone and body mucus. Golems, concrete pigs and talking 'bungalows' can all take their stoney, grey asses back to cement mixer!

Ryan - don't choose the cement. Humans will look down on you.

You need to tone down your filthy closed mindedness before the babies cry. Young man! Go to your room!

I'm already in my room! The rooms in which I terrorise tiny blocks of cement with chisels called Bloodbottler and Spiney Norman. I'd take photographs but the pigs won't let me...
