          No, he was able to restore it and remove the primer with graffiti remover.

            When I was 16, I used to work for Abercrombie and Fitch. That part of my life is hard to bury, so it comes out from time.

            That's my tactic. I lure in the internet girls with poetry and purposely don't post a profile picture. Then when they see me in real life, they are pleasantly surprised. All thoughts that I might be a rapist or a killer cease to be an issue. It works 70% of the time.

            I'm really good with my hands

            My hair? I use KMS mousse for great volume, followed by high quality salt water (I usually harvest this myself from the pacific ocean) in a spray bottle. This gives me the perfect texture and lift. Then after I dry and style my hair to perfection, I seal the shape with KMS hairspray. Sometimes it lasts me all day, other times it goes flat like the bathroom selfie shows.

            It's an art

                I'm glad my words gave you encouragement to continue, seemed like you were starting to give up.

                    Wow, paint made a major comeback. I had no idea the primer came off with graffiti remover!! Insane.

                    Also, did nobody notice that he is also stretching out his hammy while randy mossing that alternator? This guys is a modern day renaissance man.

                        I used to be a yoga instructor instructor.

                        I took a college yoga class (for the ladies) and I ended up being really ridiculously good at it. I can perform Downward Dog to a degree you've only heard about in stories of old.

                          Last night was insane. I never made it home and ended up crashing in someone's hotel room. But it was cool because we formally met each other this morning. I woke up at about 6:30am in Newport Beach and figured it was time to go home after we reminisced and said our good byes.

                          Apparently I wasn't fully awake because I drove in the opposite direction of my home for about 10 minutes before I realized it. I wasn't mad because though I was driving in the wrong direction, I was driving towards my favorite wave in the whole wide world, The Wedge in Newport Beach. So I made a thing out of it and just sat on the sand, watching the body boarders, and did some meditating.

                          I did a quick body check to make sure I didn't lose anything last night. I found some money, my wallet, keys, chapstick, pocket knife, two phones, and my self-respect. So far things were going ok.

                          The product of this morning's dawn patrol mission to the Wedge:
