    I bought these nice boots down there that were salvaged from the dump. I receive lots of compliments when I wear them.

    This is super interesting. So this spot is basically a desert dump (in the driest desert in the world) exclusively for old unsold unowned clothing? Crazy

    I wonder if any old clothes I've donated to goodwill have ever made their way to the Attaca dump, after going unsold in the thrift shop..

    You definitely want the jeans tucked in with those beauties. Kick up a storm on the dance floor so the ladies know you're a man of taste and refinement. No more than one drink and it's a done deal.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    You're right and the women are shocked when I execute a perfect pirouette with those boots:

    This dump is even more disturbing when you know that it's been considered likely that the Atacama desert is one of the burial/dumping grounds for The Disappeared under Pinochet...
