    That stupid fucking bitch Yoko Ono sold her husband's name to Nike. Can you believe that shit? Now Nike (who owns Converse) is releasing the John Lennon Peace Chuck.
    http://www.converse.com/peace/

    Click on that link, open up the window, and find the part that says "Shoes: What do your shoes say to the world?"
    This shit is fucking disgusting, any true Lennon fan wouldn't touch these fucking shoes.

    What do you think?

    The front of the shoe is cool, saw it at my mall.
    It says "Imagine all the people living in peace..."
    It's pretty groovy, but still, fuck 'em!

    I said that ages ago but everyone in the discussion thought the shoes were a cool idea.

    Even if she didn't sell his name, I mean come on, Nike pretending they have a conscience? Do people want to buy into that lie?
