:D thank you! kind thing to say.

lol nope, sorry. NYC.

why? are there tons of gay bike mechanics in SF? can’t say I’m surprised…

I love how I’m the only gay mechanic at work

But all the straight mechanics listen to music about like women and love and heartbreak

While I listen to music about death and anger and Satan

Amazing.

gay bike

Hi! I realize I haven’t posted here in a long time. I was unemployed over the off-season, so I didn’t have any good gay bike mechanic metalhead stories to tell.

I should be employed again within the next few weeks, so posts will resume shortly!

I set Mark Sloan as the background image for one of the computers at work

I know for a fact that at least one customer saw this background and didn’t say anything

i was at my shop today, stripping down my toolbox so i can repaint it. paint stripper is EXTREMELY caustic, and i got a few drops on my hands and it fucking burned. i washed my hands, but still didn’t get it off.

so my hands felt like shit and i went to moisturize them, thinking that would help, but i’d left my moisturizer at home!

so i asked my coworker if he had any. he smiled and said sarcastically “no, ‘cause I’m a REAL MAN.” and I said “yeah maybe, but you’re a REAL MAN with really dry hands!”

today at work i was joking with my coworkers, about me looking for a boyfriend

i said “i’m gonna look for another gay mechanic. not necessarily bikes, just anything. by that point my options will be so slim i won’t have to do much choosing!”

“yep, at that point you’re just gonna have to take what you get!”

it probably sounds sad, but it was actually pretty funny
