Top 10 Comments of the Week: Trillion-Dollar Apple, New YEEZY Kicks, WTF Margiela & More
This week proved to be yet another comedic gold mine, with a plethora of posts picked apart with military precision. From President Trump once again shocking the world by questioning LeBron James’ intelligence via an unexpected (or expected, whatever) Twitter rant, to Apple’s recent trillion-dollar valuation, our roundup of hilarious reader comments proves once more that very little escapes Highsnobiety's discerning readership.
Among this, expect the questionable designs of some of Travis Scott’s Astroworld merchandise, Maison Margiela's mind-bendingly expensive, uh, “thing,” and Aphex Twin's comeback: a track and visual so trippy it's been removed from certain platforms for fear it will cause epileptic fits.
Be sure to keep your funny, interesting, and bizarre comments coming, and in the meantime, check out this week’s finest below.
Please keep in mind these comments are meant to be taken as jokes and are only highlighted for the comedic effect they offer.
