Journeys Is So Stupid Omfg
Jul 18, 2006 by AnthoFlex Hey everyone, i E-mailed Journeys yesterday asking them Why dont they carry SOap Shoes. I know some do but most...and i mean MOST really don't. Here is the actual E-mail i sent them... Hello, I noticed that your store sells Heely's Brand shoes...I didnt see any SOAP SHOES. Its a different brand also by the company that supplies you with Heely's - Heeling Sports Limited or HSL Correct? I think that its in you best interest to know that not all of us seek Heely's... We enjoy the SOAP brand as well which is in very similar in design to Heely's except theres no wheels... ALL SOAP Shoes come with grindplates that only a FEW Heely's have... Those like me Seeking SOAP Shoes have a very difficult time finding them. On behalf of all of the people who agree with me, i would like to ask: Since you are already doing buisiness with HSL, why not carry a stock of SOAP SHOES as well? Replies

Hello again. I lust wanted to let you know that Heelys purchased the
Soap brand and they have incorporated the grind plate into their shoe.
You can remove the wheel on the Heely shoe and replace it with a plug
that is included with the shoe itself. You then have the grindplate on
the sole like the old Soap shoes without the wheel.

2. Some of us don't want Heely's! we don't want to put a plug where the wheel is supposed to be.
3. Some of us....well most... Enjoy SOap Shoes a lot better than Heely's....
My thought is this folks... If we all E-mail Journeys, and any other SOap Shoe retailer, Requesting that Soap Shoes be put back on the shelves....If they get enough E-mails they may think about contacting HSL! We could do HSL a big favor and keep SOap alive...I know that production will continue in the fall but lets make sure that it stays that way. Does anyone agree?

Also, you know that huge "fender" in the heel where the wheel goes? Yeah, that makes them slightly less comfortable than soaps when coming off a handrail. Not unbearable... But i prefer the comfort of Soaps for big grinds.

How do you know 'most of us' enjoy Soap Shoes more? I'm sure that if 'most of us' didn't like Heelys then the market for them would collapse. You also don't mention who 'most of us' are; 'most of us' could be your friends at school, your family or the entire global population, couldn't it? You also bring up the fact that they said you could plug the hole where the wheel goes, but you made no mention of this feature in the e-mail, so how would they know that you either don't like that or don't know about it?
Whilst you went to great pains to point out a single spelling mistake, here are a few of yours that you missed somehow:
'Heely's' - The shoes are called 'Heelys'. Not 'Heely's'. If the shoes were just called 'Heely', the plural of this would be 'Heelies', not 'Heely's'.
'Its' - This is an abbreviation of 'it is', thus there is the need for an apostrophe between 'it' and 's'(you should be familiar with these as you frequently typed 'Heely's')
'which is in very similar in design' - too many 'in's. What were you thinking?
'except theres no wheels' - 'wheels' is plural. Overlooking the fact that you missed out the apostrophe in 'theres', 'there is no wheels' is wholly incorrect. You mean 'there are no wheels'; 'theres no wheels' is, at best, a colloquialism borne out of laziness and therefore has no place in a professional e-mail to a respected retail outlet.
'... like to ask: Since you ...' - You have used a colon in completely the wrong grammatcical context. Please learn how to use such punctuation marks before wildly sticking them into sentences because they look fun.
'buisiness' - I believe the word you're looking for is 'business'. That may well have been an innocent typo but, since you picked up on 'lust', which is as much a typo as 'buisiness', I felt you should know.
You also have made several capitalisation errors. Examples of this include:
'Those like me Seeking SOAP Shoes';
'Heely's Brand shoes';
'i would like to'.
In conclusion, learn to proof read what you type. Maybe then people will start to take you seriously.

I guess they see it as "Why carry two brands owned by the same company when one of the two can do what the other can, plus something extra?"

I'm entirely certain that your five posts of whiney teenage angst prove that you do 'give a fuck'.
And no, I don't have an A* or an Honours in English. Since when does somebody have to be a genius to have a very basic understanding of the English language?

Hm.. I say, go for it man. I sure as hell want to get some Soaps easy without paying for shipping. Journey's is like, an hour drive or less. It's not that bad.

So yeah, if you want to make a serious difference to the expansion of the Soap brand, put a bit more time and effort into it, yeah? And for the record this is the only time I've 'bitched out' at you; told you you'd know about it if I did ;)
