…I grabbed a white emergency candle my mom kept in the junk drawer, headed to the school up the street and started rubbing.
You, my friend, are a creepy pervert. But I gotta ask, why take a candle with you?
Just playin’, snakes; I love you.
My dumb misconception was that there were just curbs/ledges that would grind & others that would not, and that’s just
how things were.It never occurred to me that bigger kids had prepped/waxed those spots & I just thought that the waxy residue was plastic (rails were still a common thing) & aluminum build up, as the result of the curbs/ledges being skated a lot, because THOSE ones were “the good kind” of concrete.
I was a dumbass in the 80s & I’m still a dumbass today, but at least I own a rub brick, lacquer & candles now.
