Bugs, errors, glitches… Expect all of this and more as we roll out a new site design in bits and pieces as it is evolving, instead of completing it all at once like a sane person would.
Skate and Annoy: Daily
Chicago Zines
I just added two Chicago based zines to the 80’s zine gallery, which I may have to rename because after scanning it I realized that Brian Sluggo’s 312 zine might actual be from 1990. The other is Chi-Town Shred #7, which marks the 4th issue of Chi-Town Shred that I’ve uploaded so far, with a couple more to come later.
GT Mouse Skateboard
This may look like a photoshop mishap or AI slop, but it’s actually a real product from 70’s skateboard manufacturer Grentec. For a split second I thought I may have saved some bad photoshopped images of this mini GT skateboard as a goof, but I managed to find another example, just one. And you guessed it, it was on Skate and Annoy, in an old Ebay Watch article from 2013. These guys made fiberglass decks too, but they were primarily known for being the Cadillac of the plastic skateboard world. I’m peppering this post with enough keywords to make sure it shows up again the next time someone searches for a GT aka Grentec mouse mini plastic skateboard. It predates the Doz’r, but I’m not sure about the Skircle. How is anyone supposed to ride this?
