"Once you have seen it you can't unsee it..."
It has been a grim year what with the cancelation of professional surfing and also the loss of any World Surf League missives. The Santa Monica headquarters once so bold, so brash has gone entirely silent. Not a peep even after promises of exciting news.
Scared?
Possibly, but about what? The legions of Great White sharks encircling America’s northeast and New Zealand in never-before-seen numbers?
A Covid-19 that has re-invigorated and extra-feisty, closing borders, filling hospitals, indiscriminately killing our obese elderly with underlying heart conditions?
Racial unrest that threatens the bucolic charm of World Surf League owner and co-Waterperson of the Year Dirk Ziff’s extremely exclusive southern plantation?
Satan himself coming out of the clouds to finish the whole business off for good?
Maybe.
An Australian woman recently purchased a print of what she thought were clouds except when she looked closer, realized it was actually a portrait of Satan.
‘So after finding a demonic face in this picture, I don’t want it above our bed anymore. Where else can I hang a cloudy picture?’ she said in a Facebook group.
Many terrified people quickly responded, urging the woman to get rid of the popular canvas or ‘burn it’.
‘Once you have seen it you can’t unsee it… I would get rid of it,’ one said, while another added: ‘Oh dear, I can see it! Looks evil.’
I did not see this print in World Surf League CEO Erik Logan’s office, when I last visited, but he did proudly show off a giant framed picture of Laird Hamilton riding a SUP.
Disturbing.
At least we have Lawn Patrol.

I think it looks like the face of “The Lord”. These pessimistic people have a pretty bad attitude about what they see in the clouds.
Glass half full…
I can only see Baby Yoda covered in tinfoil holding a Big Mac.
More help please!
Thought circled was rabbit eyes and nose – without ears
Gold.
All I can see is a lopsided cat
Did you hear about the Tibetan monk who found an image of Jesus in his margarine?
“I can’t believe it’s not Buddha”.
embarrassing content.
I think God creating the existence of Satan was a bit of a cunt act really…a bit like making all the delicious sweet food unhealthy for you

Is that Waldorf right in the middle?
I feel like William from Mallrats..
“When am I gonna see a goddam Devil face?”
Hahahahahah. I looked through the cloud image and found another image of The Prince of Darkness before that one. Look bottom left. I like playing Where’s Satan in the clouds.
Well, actually, on second glance it looks more like Biggles; Satan’s Pilot.
I thought Lion King side on.
Hey, Charlatan, did you see Prodie’s podcast is going to have Patches as a show regular now? My scripted workplace comedic cringefest television series based on the work environment at WSL headquarters, centered around those two plus ELo, is one step closer to coming real! Mwahahaha… wait, they’re actually just stealing my shit! Fuck that, bro. Slimeballs. Shame on you, Erik!… psssstt (whisper) hey, just kidding. You know I’m available, right?
Prodan and Patchy could make a good Perfect Strangers / Two and a Half Men style sitcom.
Prodan: Patchy, have you been using my hair brush to comb your boards again?
*Patchy points to his growing bald spot*
Patchy: Well I’m not gonna use it for much else, am I?
Prodan, with his trademark call: PATCHYYYYY
*Audience laughs hysterically*
Can Elo pop in with the occasional corpo zinger.
Gary Coleman style?
“Watchu talkin’ bout Dirk?”
This article is equally as bad as not hearing from wsl.
