Pimpin' it Old Skool on the T to the TC
I don't usually post from home, but I had to post this after my ride home on the subway.
This guy gets on at St. Clair and he's PIMPED OUT. Gold chains, gold rings, suede from head to toe... hat, jacket pants, shoes. He's wearing shades from a Nelly video, has a bandaid on his face and a gold tooth. Did I mention that he was white and maybe 19? No? Oh, I just did. For those of you who have been on the TTC, this probably doesn't sound strange... and it's not. Except... he was wearing a Superbowl ring. You heard me. I didn't think that's what it was at first, but I've seen Ace Ventura enough times to know. I easily did a triple take, as did the guy standing beside me. The other guy started laughing out loud, and I got off at the next stop. Pure gold. I love this city.
