Exciting days.
And it’s as if the World Surf League’s Santa Monica best-n-brightest including, but not limited to, Co-Waterperson of the Year Dirk Ziff, President Erik Logan and one-time Pottery Barn aficionado Kelly Slater sat down this morning, watched my not very hinged rant then said, “You don’t like corporate stupidity and absurdist greenwashing? Mic drop, skinny bitch.”
Boy oh boy, it was a dis track that may never be topped but have you not read the news? Have you not read that Swedish disposable furniture giant IKEA has teamed up with the WSL for… “a line of products catered to you, the surfers and ocean enthusiasts of the world” announced four months ago but stumbled out again today?
I have no idea what that sentence means but let’s head straight to the press release for much, much, maybe more.
WSL & IKEA are collaborating, and we want your input!
World Surf League and IKEA have partnered to create a line of products catered to you, the surfers and ocean enthusiasts of the world!
We want you to be a part of the process, helping us develop products that not only suit your lifestyle, but are better for people, the planet and society.
I clicked on the survey but couldn’t be bothered to take it.
Also, who has a cuter bedroom, Co-Waterperson of the Year Dirk Ziff, President Erik Logan or one-time Pottery Barn aficionado Kelly Slater?
Argue now!
Typical fucking feminists… Pick a cause that’s overwhelmingly the burden of every man, make it their own, and then pretend it’s the end of days for all women, completely ignore the fact that men have been suffering being shit on, beat up, burned, and back-paddled since the beginning of time.
Thoroughly enjoyed both the survey and feedback text box.
How long will it take to put together?
Who the hell comes up with these ideas? What’s next, a Rolling Stone collab?
Ja I filled in the survey. I had fun.

And STINKY fluids because its you and your “buddy”.
Mate, I just this minute took home grown prime rib barbecue off the kettle.
Hooyyeeh – no WSL sauce needed bro … hoooyeehh
AngusxHereford cross – mate, it’s a kinda heaven.
Suck it vegan cunts.
bon appétit .
‘Cept they cant suck it. Cause animal products…. 🤣🍋🍋🍋
Is that Elo’s desk?
As if there are enough surfers out there for them to stock Ikea branded surfboard racks or wet suit hangers. I question what the fuck is going on at the WSL, they are all over the place like a mad woman’s shit.

What is it about that photo which leads me to to conclusion that this gentleman has never surfed?
maybe the spirit fingers? It looks like he’s well connected. He has the 2021 vans lace up booties on.
I heard that Ikea lose 100 million a year to shoplifting. 75% of which is done by employees.
Non traditional profit sharing ?
Love the shark bite !

Off topic- If anyone has a hankering to get a look at Rob Machado’s old Star Wars toys and the famous Jimi board, you’re in luck!

That Surfing cover on the Hendrix board was perfection.
That was classic!
Otto’s Top Five Fears List:
1.) Trapped in an IKEA, somewhere between the Throw Pillows section and Plastic Storage Containers section when a fire breaks out, unable to locate any semblance of clear signage pointing towards the nearest emergency exit.
2.) Goat Yoga with the GOAT
3.) Selected for Jury Duty with Ashton Goggans and Judge Orders Jury Be Sequestered.
4.) Running Out of Whiskey before Beer on a Surf Trip
5.) Stop Being a Grumpy Local
#1 Fire exits are found at the end of the maze: first go through kitchen cabinets aisle, take a left at the bathroom essentials section, circle back through home office, up the stairs into living room furniture, back down the stairs, take a sharp left, count 100 paces and you’ll find a sign that says NÖDUTGÅNG
If I end up back in the beanbag section, I’m blaming my comical demise on you.
I’m guessing this wouldn’t help Fear Numero Uno.

Most of the operations, management of the stores, design and manufacture of furniture is run by a trust, INGKA Holding, headquartered in Delft, Holland. While most of the designs of IKEA products are made in Sweden, manufacturing has been outsourced to China and other Asian countries.
Perfect match for this collaboration
The wsl target audience!
™️ that quick, sb !
I can hear those WSL no-hopers using that.
Is that from a miniature/doll house?
Gimme some flat pack !
I just love me da flat pack.
The world needs flat pack.
The heavier the better! I want the springs in my truck to flatten from the weight of one 14″x48″x5″ box. I want dowels, cam plugs, a tiny tube of dry glue and 8 varieties of screws that strip the heads the instant the included phillips-allen wrench combo tool touches them.
I had never been to an IKEA until about 2 years ago. I had heard about them forever, but there are none in Kauai, and I don’t think oahu either. Could be, but when I go to oahu, I’m usually in party mode. Finally went to one in mission valley when I was in SD visiting the folks. It was shocking. Now I know.
A set of 8 of these bad boy dining chairs please.

That’s clearly a lounge chair, not a dining chair.
Do you even interior decorate? Brah?
Not really, Mr Greebhlnurt.
