[Polite but disheveled looking man wearing a beanie in 75 degree weather, notices you between taking pictures of cracks in the sidewalk in front of your house] Hello sir/madam, can I look in your backyard at the area where something significant to skateboarding history took place/was once located?

Bobby Puleo is a great skater and I love his parts. That being said, he is totally mentally ill. He's 1 step away from looking for signs from god in the license plates of passing cars.

I think he’s a lot more self aware than people give him credit for. Id like to believe his Instagram account is (mostly) performance art or an elaborate bit. Sure, he may be a bit odd and conspiratorial, but no doubt he hams it up.

In his videos he comes off as a genuinely polite and reasonable fella.

For sure, if you watch any videos where he's being interviewed, he's super considered, polite, and constantly reiterating that he's not trying to disrespect anyone or whatever. Just watch his nine club.

I think when he gets a keyboard and tries to distill his perspective into words is when it goes wrong. The shit he types up is so black and white and really doesn't mirror how he is when he's being interviewed or filmed.

Everyone probably communicates differently over a keyboard versus in real life, and I think the internet keyboard warrior Puleo is way worse than IRL puleo.

Watched some more of his Same Old videos last night.  Highlights included;

Making a young couple stand outside in a blizzard for 12 minutes and exploring their basement.

Telling a woman who didn’t want him in her backyard that he just wanted to look at it, then barging past her into it after she opened the gate.

Trying to lead Matt Hensley into letting him in his attic to look for a t-shirt.

With Puleo it seems to be more when the mood strikes. On his Instagram he’ll ditch skateboarding for months to talk about utter nonsense. He seems like the kind of guy that would loose interest as soon as it became a source of income and/or a responsibility.

Did you miss the one where he repeatedly tells the owner of a particular T-shirt that he would murder someone in the street just to take that t shirt off their back?

JP Blair is the most underrated filmer/ editor ever involved with skateboarding but doesn’t brag about the shit he does online, so nobody even knows. Real legend type beat.

Yes, this is the level of skate nerdery that I need to get it up these days. The manual fs board must have been at the smaller beginning part tho.

Where is the patreon?? I’ll throw down 5 bucks toward his Costa Mesa hotel room so I can look at more curbs.

I can’t stand the conspiracism but treating a sidewalk crack like a piece of the Sistine Chapel is don shit.

I agree but what's the connection? Did he film these?

Nothing to do with puleo diet, but when did people start adding “…..& _____ loves him for it…..” ???
