Integrity in the dock.
Oh and well my goodness. Stab magazine, recent North County San Diego interloper, true to form, has attempted to chime in on former world number four Dane Reynold’s perpetual frisson except got caught in an uncomfortable position vis a vis “woke culture” then edited itself into oblivion.
The title, recently described as “a more conventional surf publication following the more upbeat, straight-ahead style of the defunct Surfer and Surfing print magazines” by the august San Diego Reader, directly quoted Reynolds on its website, “We’re definitely still going! Everyone is getting ‘canceled’ for ridiculous stuff… governor of New York is getting cancelled for sexual harassment and all the women’s accounts are like ‘he touched my stomach’ and other ridiculous stuff… skaters are getting cancelled by just an Instagram from a girl accusing him of something inappropriate… anyway it was a joke, not a funny one, just everyone is getting overly sensitive and ‘cancelled’ is when someone is no longer accepted by society.”
The statement was run straight, on the lightly trafficked stabmag.com, until someone who just moved to Oceanside felt “uh-oh” after reading the five comments pointing to Cuomo’s alleged nastiness and swapped the quote to, “We’re definitely still going! Everyone is getting ‘canceled’ for ridiculous stuff… anyway it was a joke, not a funny one, just everyone is getting overly sensitive and ‘canceled’ when someone is no longer accepted by society.”
Dane Reynolds did not say that.
At all.
So.
Publishing Reynolds’ statement verbatim then shifting it entirely to a non-representative pulled punch without explanation, is that a major, major, major malfunction or simply a whole new level of “Fuck Stab?
Asking for a friend.
More as the story develops.

Cleaning up quotes, ugh, shivers!
See dots smell rats
How sad/jealous is Chaz that he has to “write” “articles” on this crap. Who cares? Stab puts out more interesting stuff in a week than Chaz does in year. Longtom, Derick and Jen please continue with the good deposits. That is all

“…the lightly trafficked stabmag.com…”
Chas sounds like trump disparaging NYT or any media critical of him: “Low ratings, bad numbers!”
Chas LOVES the word “lightly.” Will find it in 83% of his posts.
Chas and Derek should totally take credit for getting Cuomo to resign. Good job fellas.
Comment Live: As we speculate as to what the hell is taking so long to get a live thread up!
And there it is, Stab’s editor are busily typing away right at this moment to conjour article that seamlessly draws a nexus between their actions against Dane and Cuomo’s announcement that he is resigning.
Come to think of it the WSLs token Latino should have been Bobby.
Is Barra where the trendy Barria taco comes from?
Kolohe once said in an interview that he didn’t like the Mexican food in Oaxaca because it wasn’t like Acapulco or El Torito or whichever place he preferred in San Clemente.
Kolohe is probably a Pedro’s tacos kind of guy….the whitest of Mexican food.
Gotta have that orange cheese!
Latinas prepare it…they aint white.
Latinas prepare McDonalds too at times and sure as fuck is white. Pedros is nasty and hardly Mexican food.
it’s decent, the north location better than the south. it’s gringo-mex, still can’t say that it isn’t tasty.
Just because a Mexican immigrant made my sashimi doesn’t make it Mexican food. Until recently most of the “Mexican” food found in the U.S. was very different than the regional cuisines found in Mexico and catered to white/American tastes. For instance whitey loves orange cheese but I’ve never seen it in Mexico …except for a few places that cater to gringo tourists. Now if you can explain why Oaxacans put catsup on their pizza Hawaianna I would be grateful.
Who gives a shit about the touchy touchy Cuomo? Kelly is in the water at Barra and the WSL has a token latino with Turps because….Mexico!!! Half assed woke pivot as they should have had an interview with a local indigenous surfer like at Rottnest.
That guy who told us 7 times he was going to visit his mum?
That guy was off chops
Two articles on the Kia Soulless but we cant get a live comment thread?

Say what you want about Cuomo, but the man has informative charts.

6am here in Cal so doubt Chas will be on it anytime soon.
For sure, it’s almost cocktail hour.
11:20 pm here so Dozza most likely has his pulsating meat sword enveloped in some warm cozy juice nook. How’d I go?
I missed event entirely. When Stevie’s story arrived I thought it was one of those parody ones, written before it started etc.
Wait, are we talking surfing or……because Longtom writing your sexual escapades could collapse the internet.
Chas, would you kindly put away your mimosa and give us the comp comment thread please
