C is for Converse - ABC word of the day

Okay, so I was putting on my chucks and I decided that the word of the day would be Converse, because they are amazing.

Dicitionary.com definition of Converse:

1. to talk informally with another or others; exchange views, opinions, etc., by talking.
   
2. Archaic. to maintain a familiar association (usually fol. bywith).
   
3. Obsolete. to have sexual intercourse (usually fol. by with).
   

Well, not exactly what I meant, but lemme try to link Chuck Taylor Converses and converse. Well, If you wear converse and you see other people wearing converse, you'll probably be more likely to converse with them instead of someone who is wearing for example, adidas or skechers (skechers? really? Who in their right mind...) Anyways, after meeting the person wearing chucks, you'll probably become friends with them and number 2 will be applicable. Hmmm, number 3... If they are of the opposite sex, then maybe those chucks will be a turn on?? ("Mmm, you're wearing chucks, lets do it") Now we know why Converses are called converses. They are and ice breaker and they break something else as well.

UrbanDictionary.com definition of Converse:

1. Converse are amazing, always have been and always will be, no matter who wears them. If you pricks actually stop wearing a brand of shoes because "preps" have started wearing them, you're a pathetic piece of s*** and should be shot immediately. 
   
2. Converse are canvas shoes that were popular in the 1980's. In the past few years they have become more popular again. You can buy them in low or high top, and in any color or design. You can personalize them by putting in your own shoelaces and writing on them in permanent marker.
   
3. Noun: Shoes that used to be an expression of individuality, but are now an overused fad.
   
4. The best shoes ever created. They can be worn by anyone, but are becoming more and more popular because Nike STOLE-err....bought Converse. If you are wearing them because you like them, you're doing the right thing. If you are wearing them because EVERYONE at your school has a pair and you want to be just like them, you are a materialistic jerk.

Yup yup yup. True this. Okay, my ultimate pet peeve: people who just wear things because they are popular (the things, not the people). e.g. "Omg, I just saw *popular girl's name here* wearing these shoes that had a star on the side! I want some now!" or "Wow, *popular guy's name here" was wearing these really cool flat shoes that were black. Maybe if I get some, I'll be popular too." These people need to learn a few things:

1. Those "shoes with stars on them" or "flat shoes" are called Converse(s), Chucks, Chuck Taylors, or All Stars
2. If you are that attentive to these popular people, you are either a) really stalkerish b) really insecure or c) really ugly. You don't deserve to even touch a pair of converse
3. Get a life
