“As soon as started to ride off some tough guy inside Quiznos went absolutely ape shit with his middle fingers at me at the window as I was driving away. So, you know how we do. We turned around and came back. I’m just going to wait for him, see if he wants to talk about his opinions. If I got to wait for an hour for his punk ass to come out here, then so be it. And, in case anyone's curious I always have pepper spray. So, don’t worry about me too much.” - Jeremiah Farley of PNWT (youtube)
