Track time is like toilet paper: The more you have, the more you waste.

RacinNinja · June 13th, 2016, 03:16 PM

Saw something on Facebook that really explains everything. Yeah, I know it has pictures of 4 wheeled vehicles in it.

No, I'm not talking about the girl finding a guy part.

I'm talking about the part where the guy is in the shop at 2 AM. The part about being in there to build your dreams.

That's what I do. That's why I'm in there. Never really could put words to it but I think I finally did.

I went around the house and smashed every window with a hammer. You wouldn't believe how easy it was (windows are easier than walls but I guess it works on walls too). I'm on a roll now. Should I go next door and help out my neighbor's windows?
