That's so sick that Fast and Furious went diamond.
Certified diamond.
That's fucking dope.
Just two guys we made in 2004.
And this was just for fun.
Something we just made around the house.
And we were channeling our 13-year-old selves.
So I think, but the feeling we had inside, I guess for me, but I can only speak for me personally, for me personally, you know, at 13 is a little too old too.
Cause I'm thinking of like seventh grade, which was 11 and 12.
honestly, let's just say 13, your old self and the feelings, how I felt like I was and how I kind of vaguely feel if I see like a video, a home video of myself at that age, or the pictures.
Well, that's very nice.
But again, no, it's like a manifestation of the insecurities I felt at the time and even thinking of myself now back at it.
I can like bring back those feelings of just... I felt like I was... If I had acted like the Just Two Guys guys, it would have been a more honest representation, I think, of myself.
But I was always...
at least self-aware enough to try to put on a good face, put on a facade.
This is fast-forwarding many years later, but one of the reasons we really related to and liked the idea of Pen15 when they came to us with it was because it just seemed like a version of this.
