my dad was a toolmaker. so his response probably would have been 'why the fuck not'

i can remember him pissing mum of royally by bringing home this rusted as fuck old motorcycle frame one day telling her hes going to rebuild it.

mfw my dad spent about 6 years restoring a vintage bike in part just to piss my mother off...
