Are the dark arts taking it’s toll?

[Matt]

Hardly. Changing times call for darker arts.

Speaking of dark arts…I recently slid a shirt into the rotation that was acquired using said arts. It was quite the rush.

I think this also means I’ve reached peak IH when new items just seem like old items to the untrained eye. It’s beautiful.

I snagged a 64 the other day and when I showed a pic of it to the wife she said, oh, it looks like every other IH shirt. Think she’s finally over saturated and won’t notice If say, a new Sashinko materializes from the ether!

[Mizmazzle]

@Matt you and me both

[Matt]

This is the way.

@Mizmazzle I want to call this state the IRON HEART SINGULARITY or the MATT EFFECT. Just load up til it all becomes one.

@SKT the beauty of an all denim wardrobe. Shades of blue and black. I just kinda started wearing that beanie when you sent it and she didn’t seem to notice that either.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle it’s a beautiful thing when that happens.

One of my favourite stories and one I repeat a lot.

At the first-ever Iron Heart party, which was at our house because we still ran the business from the basement (just realised I have 2 favourite stories from the party).....

1. Customer discussing bikes with Haraki:
   Customer - How do you get away with having so many Harley's?
   Haraki- I paint them all the same colour

2. I take a supplier down to the basement to measure someone up for a jacket, he has a spliff on the go. As we start down the steps to the basement Haraki is standing at the top of them and the supplier gives H the spliff, H takes an exploratory drag. A couple of hours later I say to Ayumi (our translator at the time ), "I didn't realise Haraki smoked", Her response, "Oh he doesn't, he was just too polite not to take it"

both excellent, on the next party I'll try the spliff thing with him again
