Meanwhile, Disney hosts Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, where I stood beside an actual shrunken head when I was 5 years old.
Fuck Disney.
But I do still have the family photo album, I might post photos someday, just dunno where best to post…?
I am not a robot. I promise.

Cat for scale? Awesome! 👍

As long as I stick to flatland, I’m good. If I fail, I just either walk or roll out of it. It’s like an 80% fail, 20% land the tricks for me.
The real trick is to practice without hurting yourself…


Advice: Don’t try BMX stunts at home, unless you got balls of crazy.
For me, in a strange way, it helps me understand complex mathematics. The less I think of how I’m riding, the more I understand what I’m actually doing.


E6000?
You son of a bitch, you reminded me of my old project, my custom modded game controller!
I did lots of mods back in 2003, but the plastic is getting brittle these days ☹️
E6000 was used to secure my modded parts.
I really should at least try to fix the remaining parts and give it another game drive, even if it requires some duct tape…


Meh, nobody in their right mind would give me any sort of shoe warranty once they realize I ride brakeless BMX flatland…
This isn’t exactly the clip I was looking for, but what the fuck you expect a flatland rider to do with both wrists sprained?..


Awesome advice 👍
No dice for me though, washers just destroy my shoes like 5x faster than my own footwear and BMX riding.
Foot/shoe smell means nothing to me, I don’t smell my feet or shoes.
Look at the wear on my right shoe. I’m definitely due for new shoes, but these are my ‘dirty job’ shoes…


Not referring to the shoes I posted, but I’ve never found a pair of shoes that can be safely (or legally) thrown in a washing machine.
We don’t have our own washing or drying machines here at the apartment, we have to use laundromats elsewhere. You throw shoes or boots in there, you’ll get charged with sabotage… ☹️


Cool cool 👍
Any particular advice on shoes you might have?
I’m a BMX flatland rider, but I’ve found that Van’s skateboard shoes are bullshit and I wear those out within like 3 days.
Advice welcome…?


Well that toe done sailed…
At least I’m prepped with more new shoes.


You just reminded me that I actually have a pair of firefighter waterproof boots. Hope I never actually need to use them, but I have them…


Fair play, but coming from a fellow knucklehead…
Keep a couple of extra backup pairs of shoes brand new in the closet. Same with pants and shirts.
I definitely have nicer clothing put up for later, but when I know I don’t need nicer clothing, I’d rather use my junker shoes and clothes whenever I gotta do dirty jobs like mechanic work.


Wait, you wash your shoes?
I only do that when I stepped into a doggy landmine…
Edit: How do wash shoes without damaging them?
I don’t know or care how long this meme has been out in the wild…
He lit the ‘cigarette’ on the wrong end.
Also, where is his lighter? 🤔


I’m saving your comment, as you have succinctly explained it better than I ever could. 👍


Yes! The bottom left, I got 2 pairs of those from eBay for $7.16 USD.
They’re not suitable for everyday wear, but if you lose your nearsighted glasses, it’s better than nothing. So, a glovebox item…
They’re called pinhole glasses.


Nah, I just don’t want others around me when I dance. It’s a wonder I ever had a cameraman a few times…


Damn homie, you’re even more nearsighted than I am. I start losing focus about 18cm from my eyeball, but can see stuff up close almost like a microscope!
Here’s my collection of corrective lenses…

I find the bifocals in the top right best for me.
My feet are definitely not starving to death, I feed them pussy every day!
