gold, god, glory
Jeremiah: How are you celebrating imperialism today?
Ryan: I suppose I can covet material possessions; I’m tempted to buy these.
J: Those are hott.
J: I’m going to use Windows out of observance.
Later…
R: I’m going to hold off on the shoes; I believe it’s the coveting that exemplifies our imperialism, rather than the actual acquisition.
J: Ok.
Now that I think about it, imperialism truly is exemplified by acquisition, especially unethical acquisition. So, should I wish to commemorate this occasion, I should grab those shoes. This makes thoughts.

Hahaha! Very funny.
That is, funny until you think of the atrocities that imperialist oppressors have perpetrated on indigenous peoples, resulting in many of the ethnic, political, economic, and cultural conflicts that exist in the Third World today.
Just a thought to brighten your day …

P.S. I recognize the irony in your statements.

I recognize the irony in your statements. Well.. at least the sarcasm. Yeah, I believe it’s sarcasm, actually. Or maybe a bold truth. Ok, I’m sticking with “bold truth”. I recognize your bold truth. That… works….

Oh, Onitsuka: a popular Japanese brand. Junko would be pleased.
That said, I’m sure she’d suggest different colors. She’s just picky like that . . . and doesn’t like the pink.
