San Francisco based artist Alex Pardee (Cardboard City, Zerofriends) missed his friend Shia LaBeouf's birthday last year so to make it up, Alex sneaks in to surprise Shia with a mural. Or so you think.
I know this is a joke (as YouTubers pointed out you can see Shia at 1:18) and the guy in the back was kind of a "dead" giveaway but I liked thinking it was real (for a second). Shia's a pretty good actor, isn't he? What did you think?

Saturday we took the express to Osaka to meet up with a friend since we couldn't get out to Himeji. I (Phil) thought going to Osaka for a day was a waste of… Continue
