inside out

I saw a lock today at the gym. It stuck out like a sore thumb because it had green sparkle paint on it. I walked over to check it out and I saw this fake gold plate on it that proudly displayed "made in china". The lock itself was kind of under built as compared to the other locks that were on the lockers. All politics aside, I don't think you would want a "made in china" label on display to the rest of the world on the $1 lock that might be securing a $250 cell phone and the $100 that might be in your pocket. Not that it necessarily matters I guess because people just throw their stuff in a locker without any lock at all and I never hear peeps complaining that their stuff got ripped off. To me, if you're going to buy a lock at all, you may as well get one that would actually do the job if you needed it to. Or at least turn the label to the inside so that peeps can't openly see that it's made in china. I'm just saying.
