"I suppose, in theory, camping out for your boyfriend’s sneakers sounds romantic. Perhaps it’s some distorted sneakerhead thing that I’ll never understand, or perhaps I’m just not romantic like that. I’m sure there are girls out there willing to camp out for their boyfriends, but if you’re the type of guy that’s cool with sending your girl out by herself so you can have a pair of sneakers, then that’s on you."
