OMG I want

But seriously if someone buys/ships me a TMNT or Superman or Batman backpack I'll wear and take pics. That backpack I linked to would be awesome, I might even buy it myself if I can find it online

All of the popular gangster kids at my school have cartoon backpacks (tmnt, batman, spongebob, etc) :confused:

edit: this is a high school in the san francisco bay area

I'm not completely against it, but you might want to have established a few friends before you do.

Are you kidding? Chicks dig the TMNT, although I think that's because they seem to adore the 6 year old boys they babysit.

In college you want to be on the top of your game. You'll never be around so many women with low morals.

This shit doesn't really go over well at Clemson. Although it depends on your looks/personality. Good lookin guy with a decent rep....you'll come off cool. Otherwise it's pussy repellant (AKA Alkemyst repellant)

For my 21st birthday, my mom bought me a batman comforter and pillow case. I had them on for the last 2 years of college.

When I was 6 and fucking wanted them more then anything... do you think I got them.. fuck no. I slept with lame ass Mickey Mouse.

No way I wasn't having badass Batman bed spread even if it was 16 years too late.

What school? Some places he might just fit in.

clemson, where he's surrounded by thousands of frat boys and hot sorority bitches with all their collars popped.

Well, then he obviously should do it. Frat boys love simple, childish things :laugh:

Depends on his general attitude. If he's all "hell yeah" and confident about it, sure. If he slinks around in half-embarrassment, fail.

Gotta be ballsy to wear the backpack. Doesn't work the other way around.

Dangerous. Could get you branded as the "Turtle Guy" for 4 or 5 years.

If a person has pretty high self confidence and social status, they can pull off just about anything, including this. But since we're talking about TMNT here, I'm guessing that's not the case.

I think your friend will get beaten up and have his lunch money taken, so I vote WIN.

You slept with Mickey? How was he, rough or sweet and gentle?
