Being hardcore means sticking to your ideals. When the rubber meets the road, does your rubber melt? This weekend I saw the difference. Now I know a free ride is nice and its really the universe's way of letting you know there's some love out there and you deserve it. But when you're going out of your way to get a free ride, it's not really a free ride is it? It's worse than asking to be loved. It means you've given up all hope and the best you can do is behave like a mosquito. What the f is hardcore about that? Hardcore desperation, yes. Is that what the ink means? A shame.
