Let me put you onto some thangs before we all leave our homes to go about typical Friday night antics…(even though 75% of you are going to be reading this hung-over tomorrow morning)

In this city, there’s a drastic shortage of photographers, since most kids these days have no heart and prefer to set a few exposure, shutter and white balance setting and lens-point themselves stupid with some flashy Sony shit and a bubble lens. The photographers are the true heroes of the multimedia world, just look at all the shit they carry with them. Anyway, one out of maybe two or three photographers in this city, Zach Malfa-Kowalski has a new website.

Official put up its first montage since last September.

Stick Up Kids has officially crossed the bold line that makes a distinction between a good website, and a great website, because the new Little Kevin retrospective video is certified, the best thing on the internet right now.

Have fun getting drunk.

Enjoy the last day in the streak of good weather, cause it is raining tomorrow.

A while back, Mooney offered to trade me a new pair of sneakers if I re-edited his part from the snackman video with his new footage. Since I haven’t posted a random throwaway Youtube clip in a bit, here’s what came out.

In other QS Youtube nonsense, here’s a short clip from the Baby Steps New York trip in 2005 in honor of this summer-esque weather we’re having, since its complete with one of the greatest summer anthems ever. Some of the first few tricks have been in QS clips.

Typically, when your parents drop extra commas and you put yourself in debt so that you may get a college education, you want to get your money’s worth (usually never happens). But Miles chooses to spend his time more wisley by going to school in order to make comic strips about beer runs instead of going to class.

I went on the Slap Message Board for the first time in about two years the other day, and it reaffirmed my opinion of 95% of skateboarders being losers who talk way too much. Here’s what I’m talking about: The Brengar Appreciation Thread, andThe “Supreme isn’t a real skateshop” Thread (that’s a real original topic). I can’t wait until the “Quarter Snacks isn’t a real skate site” thread rolls around.

After many searches, minimal coverage of the hipster party I was talking about was found. This is the only video I found and it sucks.

Just in case you haven’t seen it already, the Billy Rohan Epicly Later’d TV episode is worth a watch. “To be honest, this [the TF] is the worst place to skate in New York City.”

DC footage always looks interesting, so the new blog DailyCrack.net should keep you entertained for a bit.

I know all of you couldn’t wait for this one: Jim Jones Presents the Dipset Skate Team: Dipskate – Part 2. Switch Mike has reportedly been spotted in training, perfecting his sess slides in order to be put on.

If anyone is holding Sendspace/Rapidshare/MegaUpload/Etc links, Torrents, or anything like that to episodes of Hollyhood, please send them to me. This looks too good to miss. And while I’m at it, if anyone knows where there’s a copy of the Aesthetics video floating around on the interweb, drop the link in the comments.

For the record, even though it seems like something I’d do, I don’t run the Old Jeezy website. I’m flattered that anyone would think I’d be capable of such brilliance, but unfortunatley I am not. And I don’t know enough about the streetwear or sneaker game to pull it off. But remember, “IT WOULDNT MATTER IF U DRAPED 50,000 DOLLARS ON UR FAT FUCKIN BODY YOULL STILL BE A FUCKIN TUB.”

I just don’t want to look at that roll of film anymore. It’s raining on Wednesday. I’ll find some shit for you bums to look at then. In the meantime…

Male Crackhead: “Everytime I give you my money, you put it in yo’ titty.”
Female Crackhead: “Ain’t that where it’s supposed to go? In my titty?”

“That was the only time I ever spent money on a girl. I bought her a cheeseburger. I wound up eating it myself though.” - Matt Mooney

“Every drunk crackhead that comes up to us always says that he used to skate, that says a lot about our future.” – Ty Lyons

Frankly, there’s no reason you should be spending time on the computer in this weather anyway. There’s TWO boxes at the TF. Yes, two.

Every once in a while, we need to acknowledge the fact that we aren’t the center of the universe, and woodpushing, as an artform, a hobby, or just a mere thing you do when you’re not sniffing blow off the toilet seat in some L.E.S bar, extends beyond fall-off lists, injury lists, and the like. But we can’t drift too far off and acknowledge a scene outside of the few dozen square miles radiating from my desk, so here’s a new photo bag, dripping wet with golden-day New York City nostalgia. (In other words, most of the spots in the photos aren’t around anymore, or exist in different incarnations).

And before I put myself on the fall-off list, given that I try to throw up at least two updates a week, I got school shit, a meth addiction, and several money-making related projects (I need mine $$$) to distract me from providing you this wonderful website at no cost. As far as 99.5% of the rest of the skateboarding-revolving-internet goes, I got a better update ratio than them, so get off my..

If anyone has photos or knows of a hipster photoblog with photos from the abandoned house party on Grand Street & Mulberry last Saturday, please let us know. Either e-mail info@quartersnacks or post a link in the comments. I’ll send you some shit lying around Quarter Snacks international headquarters if the photos are good. Edit: Seriously, out of all you geeks that pretend to skate and go on here to stay up with the time, and own digital cameras, how is this report the only coverage I’ve seen online.

Made public by popular demand. Discuss.

By no means am I exaggerating when I say that this is one of the best things on the internet in a long time.

The little kids are back at it. Even though I don’t normally co-sign things edited with music that doesn’t mention cocaine-sales, Big Apple Skate has a new montage.
