remember when we used to rock: phat gold chains.

when i see dudes wear chains like these:

it makes me want to fight them. and i'm not even a violent person.

then i think about back in the day. dookie chains were always the business in hip hop, weren't they? rope chains. herringbones. the bigger the better. remember?

still somehow iced out chains in your likeness (or anyone else's) or crayola boxes seem so utterly ridiculous. more ridiculous than old school rakim with his dookie rope chains. never mind the recession. it would be ridiculous and pretentious anyway. i guess if i was a young girl now i could relate.
