Before there was Myspace, hell before there was the internet, the toolbox genre originated somewhere.  And while I think that in today’s world the Myspace Toolbox predominately resides in the streets of Brooklyn and the suburbs of Long Island (slowly yet disturbingly spreading across the country), the origination of this tool began in Brooklyn.

One could argue that it goes back to the 20’s from the days of gangsters.  But I highly doubt that 20’s gangters had teens that were making ridiculous pictures back in those days.

The 70’s however reveals an abundance of tool behavior.

Let’s have a look.
