Talking "Oakley's" with a stranger.......

I tried having an in-person Oakley chat the other day... Guy had an Oakley hat (ellipse O with colored stars and stripes) and an Oakley keychain. When I asked him if he was a fan, he launched into the great deal on t shirts and hats he got at the outlet that day... Disappointed, I nodded when I should have and didn't continue the conversation.
 
You don't like t-shirts and hats? I don't get the problem.

Interesting story. Let's see if he joins.

And yeah. Get rid of those fakes. :p
You all can revel in your glory, something not many have been able to do, riddled with guilt, I wore my split jackets (fakes have been hidden from the light) when I returned to pick up my car.

I told him (the guy at the dealership) the story how I was "flamed" on the forum and he laughed. I gave him my forum name and told him to look me if up he joined. Will be interesting if he does. I left out the trans-gender stuff.

Without getting too deep, especially for a Friday, after picking up my car I went to a near-by Walmart. On my way in I noticed a group of young people, early 20's or maybe recently graduated seniors. There were 5 of them and entered the store after I did.

Several minutes later, coming out of an aisle, I saw them standing together, all of them with their faces in their phones. I went down a few more aisles and maybe 5 mins later came across them again, same spot, faces still buried in their phones.

"Where are you going with this Orion?" "Glad you asked"

I find it interesting that the younger generations are so focused on social interaction while in a group on an electronic device and I get much more pleasure with live social interactions like the one I had earlier today.

I wouldn't doubt for a moment that if this younger generations could put their phones up to their genitals, and some how physically have intercourse, they would never be seen in public again.

At least you tried to interact with a human being rather than an electronic device. I saw something interesting today I commented on just a few moments ago
