Now I'm imagining if one lives near John Darnielle, you go outside to grab your mail and he just... starts talking. You never tell him no, and it'll just be like "A couple years ago there was a tomato shortage, and I was shopping at the store looking for tomato paste and..." it goes into some weird story of how he owned a tomato factory, or got a congressman to call for war with Spain. Whatever random **** running through his braincase that day.
At least he can do a manual. I rolled across a bit of patchy road once and fell flat on my ass. and when my best friend talks me into skating places, I fall behind and nearly fall just trying to push myself along. You may be weak, Mr Darnielle, but you're not weaker than I.
@@heavydrizzle4472 I friggin did it. Skating was my mid-covid/grad school escape hobby. Late night rides around my university. Learned very few tricks, but did get kicked out once which made me feel legit. But I never fell on my face, I was too scared to do anything really ballsy. But I did scrape some elbows. And I did listen to WSABH.
This proves John has always been Dad
John Dadnielle
And here we have the best man alive
"I don't believe in tax refund schemes, so I spent the money at a local skate shop" Goddamn Hero.
Cuz I haven't been arrested since, uh, 89.

Something about Peter Hughes makes me want to be his friend.
I can say that about all three of them, really.
AtticSnacks you like communism? Cause if you're friends with Peter Hughes you get a lot of communism.
Christian McCord that makes it better
Peter is so great, you say his name twice

Where'd that recording of Palmcorder Yajna come from? It sounds phenomenal!

Yes it is! Because 2:33 of this video lines up with 2:35 of the link.
Pure Skateboarder
Sorry John, I'm a worse skater than you.
Fucking fantastic.
sick video
I can't even get on the board so 😂
He's right. Tax refunds are a rip off. We need to eliminate income tax altogether.
