2008 News Titbits…err…Tidbits

Okay, so its 2008…HAPPY NEW YEAR to our Ahooders!
Another year just means we’re getting harder, better, faster, and stronger….but mostly harder. Recently we were informed that the world is ending in 2012, that’s only 4 years away! So remember all that stuff, about stepping away from your crack habit? Well think again! 4 years is just enough time to develop a real addiction, plus it’ll ease the burn when the meteorite hits. We won’t waste any of your precious fiend-time; just read these news tidbits so you’ll have something interesting to say while you lay on the couch rambling during a drug-induced seizure.

First up is the official opening of the 3rd BBC & Ice Cream store in NYC.
Is it just us, or does this seem like its old news??? I mean the opening was back about 2months ago, but it just feels like it should have been a looong time before that. It IS New York. Either way, the new store in the SoHo neighbourhood is open 7 days a week and surely made a KILLING over the holidays. Check it out next time you’re in the Big Apple.

Love it, love it, love it love it…
Oh Hasheem, you lil’ perv!

KAWS and his many X-eyed companions have been as busy as bees coming up with all sorts of fun little surprises. First we have Hasheem, and let me tell ya, if KAWS himself were wearing that shirt…he’d have found what he was looking for, right here at Ahoodie (I © KAWS). Next up are his Spring/Summer ’08 coulour-by-number stickers. These sticky works of art feature the familiar faces of Companion and Chum, as well as a few new faces we’ll surely grow to love…my current fave is this cross-boned fellow:

We’re told these stickers are a teaser meant to get our panties wet while we wait for the Spring/Summer ’08 exhibit……MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

And if that didn’t do it for you, you’re either a dude or you just suck. Yeah, its my opinion, so what?…so try to resist THIS! Word on the street is that Nike AirForce1 Supreme has collaborated with KAWS. A few images have leaked of the black and neon-green kicks bearing simple signature details, indicative of their creator. And if you don’t catch on from seeing the X-references on the top of the shoe, perhaps you’ll understand when you see the ‘KAWS’ name written all over the sole of the sneaker (while it quickly approaches your face for trying to touch my pair!). At the very least, these kicks should give all you sneaker freaks a raging semi. Enjoy!

P.s. thanks to the Korean TomCruise for the pics, he seems to be the only one with any visuals of these bad boys.

KidRobot dropped a couple of their first clothing items for 2008, and their ‘special‘.
Despite being kinda cool to look at, this gear from their Gingham Collection makes us a little uneasy. The only person we can picture pulling off this look is a mime. And everyone knows mimes are just about the lowest lifeforms on the ladder (several notches below paraphiliacs and cockroaches); so in that case should pulling off this look REALLY be considered an accomplishment?!?! Take a look…

Nevermind ‘Bling Bling’
…this kind of luxury probably sounds more like ‘BAM BAM’. TIffany & Co. has designed a cell phone covered with a modest 400 diamonds, totalling more than 20 carats. You know, just enough so that it shines, and not so many that it becomes gawdy….

….**crickets**……
At an affordable $94,000 a pop, this phone is sure to be all over the place! With all the money rolling in from Ahoodie.com, I’d be the first on the block to snag one of these lucky charms. But since I’m not a huge fan of white diamonds (with the money *I* make, I can afford to be picky), I’ll stick to using my little sister’s ‘Be-Dazzler’ to snazz-up my phone.

Well that’s it for now, so happy 2008 and check back soon for some new full length articles and goodies.
