Do u think that I can get sued 4 ‘discrimination’ if the IAMCARLES brand doesn’t provide long sleeve products for ‘bros with tat sleeves who need to work in conservative office environments?
Worried abt my brand–might not be ‘universal’ enough.
Can some1 plz design ‘trendy-looking advertisements’ utilizing images from my lookbook? Needs to look ‘cutting edge’/flash intensive/ripping off Am Appy/like something that has never been seen b4.
Rlly need an intern. Soo swamped with ‘the brand.’ Not sure if I should have ‘contest’ where people write meaningful essays about why they ‘need an internship with HRO/IAMCARLES’, and then I can post all of the essays for every1 to read. Wish I could start a youtewb reality show/vlogging collective.

@zachary german, Does anyone here know who sings a song that the lyrics go something like ‘ you don’t have to open the door…harrass me and smile at me’
it’s very bass-guitar driven..kinda like The Cribs, the singer’s voice even sounds a bit like the Cribs guy..but i checked and it’s not theirs.
I heard it at a store and now I want to know who sings it but can’t find it on google.
:(

Hey Carles, I don’t think it’s very ‘relevant’ to assume that only ‘bros’ can have tattoo sleeves. Sometimes ‘girls’ have sleeves as well. Sexism is not a relevant ‘view/outlook/opinion’ to have in our day and age. Keep up with the ‘trends’ and recognize that humans are more than just ‘bros’ but also ’siss’ (or whatever relevant terminology you decide to use for the female counterparts of those you refer to as ‘bros.’) Thanks Carles.

Another option for Carles’s t-shirt campaign is to partner with Dov and the bros at AmAppy (via non-sexist, non-conservative apparel, both longsleeve and shortsleeve).
Reply
You should try colors 2. longsleeve+different colors would be c00l

i think a long-sleeve is too obvious(=mainstream) of a next-step for an authentic brand.
can’t wait 4 the Iamcarles “bike pant” (via bum pads)
i think that would really rack up my “scene points” (via self-aware bros in 2k3)
