Your dad was a rebel first. He wasn’t no soc, his shirts weren’t emblazoned with the marks of privilege.The other side of the tracks were his right side of them. And on that side of the tracks he built his first car.
It was fast, scary and lose (looking back, maybe he shouldn’t have crafted it after your mom.) He raced, smoked, crashed and re-build that car. The police knew him by name, make and model.
However you’re not a rebel. Your dad rebelled against the system, used the skills he learned building that car and made millions doing it. He gave you a trust fund, pays for your thrift store shopping sprees and puts the ramen in your cabinets. You’re faking a rebellion hipsters. If you think about it, you’re rebellion against a rebel, which makes you mainstream. Guess you just lost your hipster status, sorry.
