Monster Children

LUNCH #1
Posted By Jason – 11.02.2012

The “Give Me Lunch and I’ll Give You a Skateboard” project should be renamed “The Best Idea I Ever Had” project because it is literally the best idea I ever fucking had. Garrett McGale was first to email me at skate4lunch@gmail, so today he got first pick of the boards. He grabbed a very nice Toy Machine deck and some MC merch. Garrett did pretty good, I still feel like I got the better end of the deal, though; he totally hooked-it-up. I should mention that I was insanely hungry, so I probably sound a bit over-stoked. Anyway, I’m completely stuffed now and that’s the main thing. Read on.

Garrett, where are you from?

I’m from Portland originally. I moved to New York about three weeks ago. 

So you just moved?

Yeah. Well, I was living in LA for five years before I came here.

What do you do?

I do freelance work.  Do you know Arkitip magazine?

Yeah.

I do some stuff for them. Right now I’m interning for these graffiti artists, Mint & Serf. Their office is like a block from here.

What do you do for them?

I’m like a videographer.

Cool. All right, man, what’s for lunch?

Okay, here we go.

Whoa! Two burritos?

Yeah, dude, and…I got a six-pack of Pacifico.

Wait. Are you kidding?

Yeah, well, I figured you guys would want to chill on a Friday, so…

You’re not kidding. That’s so rad! Thanks dude! Beers and burritos; I’m blown away!

And here’s a lime, too, dude.

Fuck! For real? You brought a lime for the beers?

Yeah, man.

You’re the best. You’re the first in the door and already the bar is set way, way high. I was expecting a peanut-butter sandwich! This is awesome!

I’m a big fan of Monster Children, man. I wanted to get you guys hyped!

Thanks Garrett!

You got it.
