After watching these wretched 10 year olds roll around on these shoes and thinking that they were going to wind up in a hospital, I bought a pair out of sheer jealousy. They're fun as hell.
Anyone else in the 18+ category have a pair?
These are mine. They weren't my first pick, but it's hard to find them in adult sizes.  |

Also, I feel like beating you up. I really don't like Heelys. But if you wanna dress up like the grim reaper, I've got a robe you could use.

Although I could never justify actually buying them and the fact I would probably break a leg gives me reason not to invest in them.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Fayetteville/NC | | | i've always entertained the idea of getting some after seeing the tots rolling around in them, i mainly wanted to get some to show those kids that i'm better than them. nothing makes you feel better than showing up children ya know. but i figure i'll just get some of the rollerblades from the 90s that have the detachable boots, that look like climbing sneakers...

It's time we terrorised our nation's shopping centres with whatever nobody has explicitly banned yet. |
