A while ago a bloke was walking along the pavement with a can of blue paint. The handle snapped and it exploded all over my car back bumper. As the back bumper is plastic I didn't worry too much. A couple of years later I got some paint stripper, removed the blue bits and repainted the damaged section the correct colour having researched the paint colour. Having a bit left over I then used the rest to touch up 10 years of minor scratches. Now people keep congratulating me on my "new car" but it's exactly the same one as I've had for a decade it just doesn't have as many visible signs of age. It kind of males you realise how shallow and silly people are. How many things do we sell or throw away that are perfectly serviceable because they don't look new ...?
