1. Kick means posting in a thread to move it back to the top of the page.
I'm kicking your thread right now!

6. Back in the day, my shoes were kicks.
but today you make a kick to promote anything you like by making a post--which sends the topic up on the board.

But for foot wear--it's like this:

My shoes are still kicks because Merrills ain't status-shit, and they look orthopedic on my gunboats--if I was eighty, I'd be in the Mercedes of shoes, but my blues are that I got no clues to address my heels, and how real they feel, with spurs poppin' like knees locking, and arthritis-throbbing', to make my walking an unhappy home, wherever I roam, but still I persevere, sampling the real and feeling like I feel-with a reinforced heel I'll have a spring in the step and forget my tragedy, the ping of mortality, in every footfall, after all, are the seeds of a downfall in every shout-out call, and don't you know the size of a prize is in too many hands, it stands, a post goes up because of it's friends, but still, your will, my will, and all the friends of Bill could be unleashed to keep board peace or release the fleece of your lambhood, not not a kind of damnhood, but a signal you are ready to go, you know?

You know?

I was saying what?
