Say buh-bye to hard surf candy!
Sigh. You guys were right.
Once great surf/fashion site BeachGrit was nothing more than a pyramid scheme. A capitalistic smoke and mirrors. A joke amongst two crusty surf scribes.
How do I know this? Well, today Dez informed me that while he’s appreciative of my time spent on the Grit, as of tomorrow our beloved haven will be under new management, and they want none of this Italian sausage.
In fact, BeachGrit‘s whole scheme is supposedly changing. The new owner, whose name I’m forbidden to share but definitely doesn’t not rhyme with ‘burly’, will be using the domain for a secretive property launch.
While I am upset about losing a job, forfeiting the credibility of the world’s okayest surf site and becoming more generally disillusioned about the world we live in, I guess I understand. Derek needs to make up for dollars lost on a premature STAB sale and Chas has to prove to his wife that despite it being 2017, men can too bring home the bacon! Or at least a small tube of soyrizo.
I don’t think I was supposed to be the one to tell you all this, but what are they gonna do, fire me? I’d recommend screen-shotting the post in case they see and delete. The soulless bastards!
If you’re wondering where to find future hard surf candy, try here.
Rorey was almost over the moon.
Actually, getting fired as a volunteer adds to your already impressive resume.
And he was banging the bottom of the bottle with his palm. This article is all that oozed out.
How can you be fired when you don’t actually get paid????
Is the last of your 9 posts whilst in pumping pacific swells? Certainly saved the best for last – Chas to fund his book and the fuel price to fill up the Porsche, and Dez to fund more Necro clobber as well as Sabre’s doughnut addiction.
Nice
“has”
It was actually on par with the other (non surf) news sites I browse.
You should have gone for the old “…fishing trawler washed up on ____ beach (isolated beach) overnight, they’ve got no ice so they’re giving away ____ (insert local seafood). Hurry up and get down there”.
And this gags a day late for your convict related / drunk / bazza loving southern hemisphere audience. And the ‘bros in Enzed.
Just when I was beginning to think that you weren’t a useless wanker you go and prove me wrong.
good one
you saved your best for last. was it neff who bought bg?
