C11-OH!

Bit shaky, taken from my desk, leaning backward.

As-yet unfinished, clearly. Probably never will be finished.

Reckon the orange and red work swell. Go the XR4s

That S30

The car of the moment?

Goes to show how crucial being low is

I’m not going to gush over this thing. I’ll leave that to the rest of the internet. I’m here to look at this example of fandom-causing automobilia objectively, which I’ll keep to myself. I hope Mr Akaishi doesn’t mind me using his photo. Any man worth his life is never too proud to have his work considered by others.

It intrigues me how infatuated others can be with the opinions of the world. It shouldn’t matter, why should it? It’s not even as simple as the now-over-used concept of doing what you want. You don’t, and shouldn’t need to be told that.

 

To quote a great man,  Howard Roark, to a foul man, Ellsworth Toohey, who shared only one thing with Mr Roark, their lack of existence. This is upon being asked by Mr Toohey what Mr Roark thought of him.

“Mr. Roark, we’re alone here. Why don’t you tell me what you think of me in any words you wish.”
But I don’t think of you”

 

It’s the things we love and desire that enslave us. Don’t let those things be determined by the opinions of others.

The car looks fantastic, there is no doubt, but does it deserve the accolades it has recieved? Has there been a great feat of engineering involved? Does it do something new and innovative? No. But then the owner hasn’t claimed it does. It exists in it’s own right.

It’s only a car. You’re a person, capable of such greatness your mind likely doesn’t know of it. Reserve your admiration
