The Dream


For anyone who has seen me over the past two weeks, you may have observed one of two things:
1) I'm awesome
2) I'm awesome-er because I've been borrowing my brother-in-law's scooter.

This is the NEW age people. And it is an age of scooters. An age of scooting. Of the scoot, if you will. The old age, where scooters were strictly used by economically savey dweebs who coveted their vespa as if it could fill the void created by their lack of female contact, has been annulled. And it is clear and manifest that in this day, the scooter is the new motorcycle.

Seriously, you don't even KNOW how many chicks I had on the back of that thing (five, actually, and all Baha'i girls that rode in a totally platonic and un-braggable way, with me just being helpful when they happened to need a ride. So, now you DO know how many chicks I had on the back of that thing.) Five is not bad for two weeks of work though!

Don't believe me? Fine, I'll let the pictures do the talking:



















In the profound words of my good friend T.I: What you know about that?

Ignoring the obvious fact that the person on back is not actually a chick as I just boasted, can you imagine a cooler, more enviable robbie? I certainly can't.

Oh, and why post about "the dream"? I'll tell you why. With a link. One, simple, LINK.

Yeah, this catapults you into a new level of awesomeness.

Too bad that returning the scooter means you'll eventually come crashing back down.

But did you see the link?!

If I get that scooter, I would be cool on a whole knew level.

Are you going to save up for that scooter, or is that just going to be a dream for right now?

did you ever find a car robbie? after you failed to buy mine?

Andrew said...

Woah, Robbie. You're going to do it, aren't you? You're going to succumb to the temptation. I envy.

Although you acknowledged it, it's pretty funny that your pictures don't actually show a girl on the scooter. I laughed out loud.

Reed - One word, many implications: Parents

Greg - I got like THREE cars, dude. No, i only have one. Used, ford escort. It's loverly.

Andrew - That is kinda the effect I was going for.

Mojan - Thank you

Patrick - Thanks(?)

Gavin - EXACTLY. I love how well the name lends itself to badassery. "Let me just ride my ruckus over there..."

marjan - I know. However, who can say, with a straight face and under the unforgiving clamps of a lie detector test, that they wouldn't want the esteemed, the illustrious Andrew Johnson on the back of their scooter?

Robbie, you are funny!

Parents? There's only one implication there!
Good luck with that!

Funny, funny! Now you have me thinking about riding that thing. You gave it back to my hubby, no?

Need I mention that your twinling has procured a vintage scooter? Perhaps your scooter desire is vicariously living through Jeremiah without you even knowing it!
