Breaking: Stab magazine recognizes error of ways, deletes post describing world’s greatest surfer Stephanie Gilmore as “coke-head with OCD!”

Stab magazine Editor-in-Chief Ashton Goggans may be Amber Heard.

How quickly do the wheels of justice turn these days? Three, literally three, minutes ago I posted a story regarding Zoom adjacent to Venice Beach Stab magazine decision to describe the world’s greatest surfer Stephanie Gilmore as “a coke-head with OCD” on Instagram.

The offering received mixed results.

Many thought it was funny and “edgy.”

Many more thought inappropriate and odd, especially for a property that consistently makes a point to fall on the side of “woke” clearly “the right side of history” in our current culture war.

As is its wont, Stab disappeared the offending post within a literal three minutes of a fine BeachGrit offering which… ouch!

Not even 24 hours of fun?

12 hours?

But also, is a media property truly “woke” by what they choose to leave live, swinging on “funny” and “cool” when the spirit strikes, or does a media property actually have to be “woke” and only post “woke” offerings?

I don’t actually know.

I’m perpetually confused by deleting anything.

History judges us and look at how it judged Johnny Depp.

A fun derelict.

Stab magazine Editor-in-Chief Ashton Goggans may be Amber Heard. Or…. whoever that other girl is.

More as the story develops.

Cocaine is so pre-Covid. I’m now crushing Adderalls and placing them in my Copenhagen chew. It’s like a focus dip, you get kinda buzzed but extremely focused. In fact I watched Fox News for 41 hours straight last week without blinking. My wife and kids are thrilled with my behavior.

Does that really work? Asking for a friend.
Edit: I’m on the Zyn now but I’ve had my share of relapses.

Mr. Dung Beetle this trick actually works with Percocet on the golf course. Aderall has such a distinct taste it will ruin the dip. If you’re up to it mix a Xanax with an Addy, with half of a Perc 30. We call that Sunday where I’m from.

Tasty combo!

Johnny Depp and amber heard trending harder than sharks?

Amber Heard affirme que Johnny Depp a menacé de la tuer “de nombreuses fois”. Paris Match is all over Depp, nothing on monsieur requin.

It’s a bit boring ragging on Ashton.

Butttttt read that Derek Ho obituary he wrote?

Oh my. Surely not. Oh dear. No just no.
Were the thoughts popping in my head.

The ashton article was pure gold in a lead with yellow paint on it kind of way. The real entertainment starts in the comments section. SSOOOO harsh.

joeys nosegard

and fuckn funny

Wilbur

He wrote a ‘tribute’ about Derek, but it ended up being about himself.

Some highlights in the comments:

“Why does everything you write come across as so vain and narcissistic? Pretty hard to achieve in an article honoring a legend of the sport but congrats on that one.”

“Sad to hear about Ashton’s passing. From this article, he sounded like a real cool dude.”

“Fuck you’re a self-indulgent twat Ashton.”

EVERYTHING that sewer falcon writes is self indulgent. He just can’t resist trying to make himself out as some ex-pro, industry hero. The absolute need to be somebody is just painful.

I had to Urban Dictionary Sewer Falcon. Excellent usage.

Mate, I used to trouble shoot Macs and PCs for next to fuck all – then several years ago I woke up and said, “there’s so many Russians out there now. I can’t be fucked dealing with them.”
But then, I realised there’s always special needs cases like Wiggs … I like to help mates and slow kids who can’t search for themselves. Fuckall effort for max reward.
