...everyone looks up to us at Pause, or at least should, and comes to us for advice all the time. So in order to save time, I felt it'd be wise to post these social and moral conundrums and our flawless solutions to them. Here's a question I received from Peter in Burlington:
"hey Pause dudes, I've been thinking a lot lately about the current state of the world and my responsibilities to my fellow men and women. Problem is, with so much wrong in the world, I just don't know where to start, help me Pause Designs, you're my only hope. Help me Pause Designs, you're my only hope"
Dear Peter, and other concerned readers, it's true that the world blows, and not in the fun under the bleachers kind of way, and it sometimes seems like it'd be impossible to make any difference. My advice would be to start small, maybe make a statement against globalization and giant corporations. Buy your goods and services from small and local businesses, I get my hair cut by a guy that lives down the street, it's in his basement, and he ties me up(to prevent me from injuring myself he assures me), and maybe he's touched me once or twice, but the price is right, and I think I'm doing my part to snub places like First Choice and MagiCuts. Everyone knows that they make their hair products from the tears of small third world children. You should also try to buy your clothing as much as possible from smaller, independent companies like say...I don't know, maybe Pause Designs.....just sayin. They keep it real and they don't use sweat shops. Sure, from time to time the warehouse gets a little warm, but they generally work in the buff (emphasis on buff in Ken's case) so the sweat level rarely gets above a subtle glow. Or you could just donate millions of dollars to some charitable foundations or something, but most of them are actually communists, and will use your money to buy cheesecake or whatever it is that commies like. So in conclusion, the solution to the world's problems is to shop at Pause, or else you're a communist,
