The line!
Setting: Underground skate party. A kegger two blocks from the convention center downtown. A live punk band, skaters taking turns in a bowl, skateboard art on display, skate video’s projected onto the wall outside, ~100 people present. I’m drinking a beer w/ Chambra, craning my head to look through a wire mesh into the bowl as skaters drop in for more vert than I’ve ever skated.
A Random drunk approaches.
“DUDE THAT’S FUCKING AWESOME!!”
hits fists
I had no idea wtf.
“What’s awesome?”
“I TRIED TO GET MY KID TO DO THAT! I JUST SHAVED MY HEAD!” removes hat “BUT I TRIED TO GET MY KID TO DO WHAT YOU DID!”
“Did what?”
“THE LINE IN YOUR HEAD MAN! THAT’S FUCKING AWESOME” high-five w/ fists again
I decided at that point not to tell him it was a surgical scar but before I could ask him what it meant to him, he was gone.
Guesses?
Update:
I got this shot on the very first try with my cameraphone. I tried a few more and none even hint at it as well.
It’s just hard to see the whole thing from one angle.
So I photoshopped a little. Levels and hue contrast can’t bring out what’s not there, so I embellished.
I couldn’t resist.
OK this angle actually shows it as he probably saw it:
I don’t know why my ears are on fire, someone must be talking about me right?
