Not so much related to my Boxster, but as kid I always thought "exaggeration" was a bad word that only my parents and teachers wanted to punish me with. Yet, this bad virtue ended up being my (scarcely) livelihood (music related) and also brought me a few photo/film jobs --

Admittedly, DOF is my dope and I like to spank the poop out of color & contrast (guess that's what the civilized people call 'crushed blacks'). And yes, it's painful to hear my dad complaining about my work in addition to teasing me that he never knows "which way I'm taking off" (that the front and the rear of the Boxster looks, to him, the same).
