We make a point of not correcting the Japlish.....

When Haraki first made a left hand twill, I said "ooh a lefty" - It's been Lefty Denim ever since

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Yeah, that’s a cool statement!

I’m really curious how the following chart/data is useful for the Stubborn Crew. It only gives them circa 6 days of advance info on item launch, so obviously not a useful predictor for production purposes. With that confusion in my head I have been lax at answering NO/MAYBE/YES, do it only sometimes even if my decision is already clear on said item.
Are you comparing ‘week old customer purchase intention’ with actual purchases?
Are you ramping up IHUK internet bandwidth if a mad rush to buy is foreseen to avoid website crashes?
REALLY CURIOUS.

@motojobobo Made this post last night in another thread:

@goosehd said in IHJ-130-BLK-NP - Reversible Tanker Jacket - Black:

@A-eye-Kev From what I read the other day, it’s not really used by the IHUK crew. It is a feature that was added to this platform at the start of last year, and something that may be used to gauge interest moving forward as more people start to use it.

Could be one of those right tools at the right time kind of things.

Thank you @goosehd . Sorry to make your job harder by twice asking the same question.

[goosehd]

@motojobobo It’s not and good question to be asked. It does allow the crew to post the items on the calendar which is helpful for people to see at a quick glance what days items are being released.

See here

Edit: The calendar is found at the top of the page and highlighted in this image:

I believe the issue is that regardless of how the question of “who’s gonna buy this?” Is asked, the answered will almost always be too unreliable to be anywhere near useful.

@flannel-slut Look up "lime oleo citrate". It is a method to yield a larger amount of flavorful lime juice from one lime than just squeezing it. It's used by bartenders to reduce waste and produce better tasting drinks.

[flannel slut]

@jonpwn even out of season, I never recalled limes being as dry as they have been this Spring. Regardless, posts like this is why I LOVE this forum. You put me down quite the worm hole looking into this lime oleo citrate. I started off skeptical but the more I looked into it, the more I was sold. Literally just added citric and malic acid to the grocery list. Cheers man

I've been doing super juice since pandemic. It feels like such a waste to but citrus for juice and not do it this way given how relatively simple it is. It freezes well too

Anybody elses Instagram driving them fucking nuts because Marvel are launching the Ironheart TV show, and are using #ironheart?

@Alex time to phone the lawyers mate

[goosehd]

@neph93 There are days when this being my only form of social media is glorious

[neph93]

Yeah… I delete my apps A LOT. Might be time to do that again for a few weeks.

[jordanscollected]

@neph93 I deleted Instagram about a year and a half ago because i wasn't getting anything from it aside from carefully curated cool outfit pics. At least here I get that plus funny banter and great conversations.

Marvel would be wise to dress their Superhero in 21oz denim

[Oaktavia]

@neph93 haha, I do not follow #ironheart for that exact reason. But there is always #ironheartarmy #ironheartdenim #ironheartjapan.

[neph93]

I decided it was a good excuse to delete the dumbass platform and take a break from there

[Oaktavia]

@neph93 hope all is well on your end!

I think I recall this being mentioned before and I think they actually do have some sort of agreement In place. Either way, I wouldnt want to go up against Disney lawyers, would you?

[Giles]

We did talk to their lawyers and reached an accommodation.

[jordanscollected]

If that accommodation included a Naked & Famous like jean collab, I'm out for that one.
