Fresh: Kelly Slater Surfs a Bean Bag!

For upscale San Francisco home furnishing chain Pottery Barn…

Have we made fun of Slater’s Pottery Barn Teens collection before? I feel like we did, but a search only turns up this quick mention from a year ago.

Really let that one slip away. Pretty terribly blah stuff. “PBTeen: Now your kid can live in a vacation rental!”

Kelly Loves To Switch Hit! Who Doesn&Rsquo;T! Or Is This Photo Used In Promotional Literature For The Home Retailer Pb Teen&Hellip; Flawed?

Awful, boring, expensive. But what do I know? I buy my furniture from the thrift store and sleep on a mattress that sits on the ground.

But this video! It’s a year old, how did I miss it?

Kelly Slater Surfing With A Beanbag | PBteen

You’ve got access to the best surfer who has ever lived. He plopped his name on your product, agreed to film some promo material. You sit down with your team of marketing dorks who are totally hip to what the kids dig, and this is the best you can come up with?

“Yeah, we should, like, totally get him on an SUP with a beanbag chair. It’s radical fresh!”

Weird thing is: that beanbag is actually filled with chia seeds.

Who thought expensive products endorsed a bald 44 year-old would be appealing to teenagers?

I guess its an old video but a beanbag on a SUP is really just a kayak with a cushion??
I can honestly say who the Fuck thinks these ideas are good marketing!!!

Holy shit, Rory! Three posts in one day?! How much coke have you consumed today? No surf? Exhausted Pornhub?

Wiggolly's Paddling Style

You should move to Tube8 Rory. They’re more discerning with the videos they promote. Pornhub keeps trying to show me videos from Australia. Why would anyone besides a sick fetishist freak want to see two Aussie sheila bogans bumping their boxes in the back of a Commodore and filmed on an old Nokia? I would hate to see the shit they show you with your location set to Kauai….

I checked if PornHub is down when I saw 3rd article from Rory.

Right? And I’ve gone surfing, done my grocery shopping, and spent all afternoon hassling my optometrist on facebook.

Which was fun. Fucker gave me half assed exam followed by the wrong scrip on my glasses, then didn’t pick up the phone or return my call.

But you post one unsatisfied thing on a local FB page, watch the comments agreeing stack up, then the phone starts ringing.

Had the balls to say he cut my exam short because he was running late for church. I am not the right guy to play that card with.

Also, there’s no good coke in Hawaii. Or if there is, I have no idea where to find it.

Karl Von Fanningstadt

Damn, I wish I was that productive. No, seriously, all I’ve done today is read about the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral on Wikipedia while at work, read your three posts, get home from work, and nap.

Kauai Buy and Sell sets the record straight. And quickly.

I’m hoping to hear your opinion on the monk seal attack on Kauai
