Chief Hot stuff

Too many cunts love the wsl
I wish they’d go back to their jar of vaso and VHS tapes of some nineties kooks

astro

I got a deal on a 200 Li drum a year or so ago.
Just about out, better reorder.
Thanks for the reminder.

Eddie Haiku

I just broke my toe
Which means medical beers and
Finals on the couch

channelbottom

Who were you kicking?

Eddie Haiku

I kicked a chair leg
And screamed Oh For Fuck’s Sake and
Now my son says fuck

channelbottom

My son frequently points with his middle finger.
This is due to early, inadvertent training because “Daddy points to cars with that finger”.

My 6 YO daughter has been heard to mutter Daddy’s favorite mantra: “Jesus Fucking Christ”

WSL sucks,
Give it back to tha kore.
Oh yeah and, they’ve ruined it.
I can’t even look at a wave without hatin on some wsl punk. Aaaargh!
I’ll never watch it, I’d rather watch ice dancing, fuckin killed surfing and made my board go yellow.

“Looked like more than a bad ankle?” “Mysterious?” Fell on first turn. Umm? -could a ‘fix’ be in? Any conspiracy theroies? If the Brazzilans keep winning all the titles–is the ‘gravy train’ (Dirk Ziff) gonna keep rolling? Maybe better to lose a few and keep taking home some checks–than no checks at all…….

astro

To hell with the Post show.
Joe n Porkz won’t mention the judging.

Hippy

Ross

The judging is the reason Ace Buchan has a pro surfing career.

Hippy

Standing ovation.

Hippy

But his hair is so blond and he’s from Japan?

Frontwards Fin Frank

Is it me or does he look more and more like a woman with every event?

John Wayne

Thank you umpire, thank you ball boy. Game over Jesse. He made it through one more heat than I thought – so congrats on over achieving. Good day out. I thoroughly enjoyed the last half of it. Missed the first as the waves were firing. Glad I did or I might have lost some cashola.

Hippy

Wow, Ronnie is torching Jesse.

Ross

Waves are still good, low tide or not. KP should rescind his call to quit for the day and run the quarters.

John Wayne

That wave sucks at low tide.

John Wayne

Kanoa has done more floaters in this heat than have been seen the whole year. Pottz will be loving it.

NEGATRON

longtom

Dogsnuts

John Wayne

Don’t forget to write up about how many Aussies are in the top 10 going into West Oz and who the Olympic reps will be – should make for some interesting reading !

Good luck with the Docs.

NEGATRON
