Dramatic.
The relationship between law enforcement officers and citizens in these United States of America has reached a true nadir. Much distrust and hard feelings etc. with the divisions being stoked from on high.
Well, at least we have Kelly Slater’s hometown of Cocoa Beach, Florida where, over the weekend, a shark sensing vulnerabilities in the system attempted to eat a young boy directly in front of a policeman.
As you can see in the dramatic video, the policeman does not pause, but rather jumps immediately into action and saves the day. Also, no crowd gathers and begins chanting obscenities about brutality etc.
A sea-change where we can all, once again, be wonderful friends like in the Andy Griffith days?
Possibly.
But what does Kelly Slater think? As I am not allowed into his mind’s eye (Instagram feed) anymore I don’t know where he falls on federal officers being dispatched to U.S. cities in order to arrest people standing around statues.
Is he mad about that or still occupied with the amount of sugar in Snapple?
Thanks.

Lefties just remember, all white people bad though. And especially white cops!!
kelly slater hated derek ho! why else didn’t he post a photo and write anything about his passing?
Has anyone noticed how Le Bron is a drama queen on social media? How is it that uber athlete’s, the best at their sports succumb to childish petulance online? Like they should be above the petty shit the serf’s engage in.
Yet, there they are…. insecure and doting on their IG??? Rolling in any mud.
Sounds like that Slater bloke…

Damn, spit up my first beer. Only got 10, can’t afford another slip up.
Apparently meth is more expensive on the dark web than coke. Weird, weird times. And why.
Apparently there is a cannabis shortage in France causing spectaculaire price increases. Logistical issues I suppose.
I can help~!

You can finally validate supply side economy round Cali, Billy.
So much inventory and the prices have never been lower.
Fairly surreal, and the greedy republicans that hated weed now seem encouraging because of their profits. ?
Revenue is the new value, everything else pales.
Meanwhile, the produce is fucking cheap and good as shit.
Maybe too good. Still cheap.
Thanks but no, airline has a robust drug testing program I do not wish to run afoul of. But I retire in two years so holding out for a bash then.
Dark days indeed. I haven’t been cancelled by Kelly yet. Is it normal to be jealous of Chas?
I feel like Chas missed a golden opportunity to insert a “blue lives matter” line in here someplace.
I even wrote about it!
How long do you think til they take down Kelly’s statue for his crimes against the environment?
Ha yes! Replace it with a statue of him driving a tractor and mowing down a tree with a koala in it.
A fountain statue where he is pouring water into a sewer!
Ha – the Kelly Slater Environmental Evaporation Sweepstake !
you notice evaporation is never mentioned.
why not host a pool in a desert?
I’ll give the slimy fucker his credit with this one – it was a smart move to graciously allow Dirk to buy KSWC. Hahahahahar
Is there more cash for
Footage of cop saving kid
Or shark eating kid?
Whew! For a moment I thought you had moved on from the shark terror theme. Prayers answered.
Could anyone on planet earth other than the policeman involved, his parents, the kid and his family, the embarrassing local news people and Charlie possibly care in the least about this story?
Roll out of bed at 10:00, Google shark video this week, spend 30 seconds writing this “story”. Something tells me BG is not the goldmine you hoped for.
Ultra hard! Kryptonite!
I enjoyed your books, but really this continuing shark meme?
So many shark stories ….
So many, many more to come !
My style of humor is to repeat the same “joke” over and over and over until it becomes absurdly funny through sheer repetition!
Fart jokes!
Works for some I suppose, to me just seems lazy going through the motions posting for the sake of having a post. Just my opinion and you are certainly free to continue as you choose. Bonne chance!
You obviously need some help here:
Article written by Chas – skip to comments section, focus on anything from Eddie, Wiggs, Jordy or Channelbottom (RIP)
Article written by DR – snigger at auto-erotic title and/or byline, skip to comments section, as above
Article by longtom or Surfads- actually read as it will generally be pretty good
Article by NC or Matt Warshaw – ignore, outdated and irrelevant
No need to thank me
Edit: shit, how I could forget KVF … lovìng the man’s work
Well, that about sums it up.
Everyone has their schtick.
Sad as that is.
That had me laughing, well done!
Kelly be prepping judges for his victory lap of the tub.
I hadn’t noticed it before but typical WSL, The Euro Cup and The Australian Grand Slam of Surfing … big claiming titles of fuckall.
Wsl – home of global wankerism.
They’re so fucken lame.
If you knew where their offices were and what surf was their local…. how can you take them seriously?
