My favorite is when I have a car in a parking lot, all taped off and ready to spray. I'll be mixing the paint for the bumper of the car I am working on...pouring it into the paint gun. I'll then walk over and start painting the bumper. Then here they come.
Q. Are you painting the car?
A. Yes I am.
Q. Isn't that illegal?
A. Yes, it is, I am an outlaw. I was going to try robbing banks or holding up liqour stores, but that seemed so 15 minutes ago. I decided to risk fines and imprisonment and slather paint on cars for half of what the body shops do...that's my strategy to get rich quick.
