Die socialist die.
As you are certainly well aware, the World Surf League opens its Final’s Day window in two days. Of course that does not necessarily mean the event, pitting the top five surfers, on both male and female side, against each other over one scintillating eight-ish hour period will directly run but it will run soon, that much is certain.
As anticipation builds to fever levels, one troubling issue has dogged diehard fans of professional surfing for the past few months.
Namely, the state of WSL CEO Erik Logan’s facial hair.
What was once pure cocaine cowboy has since gone the way, lightly, of Karl Marx and while hirsute radicalism is accepted in some corners, professional surfing is not one of them. The world’s favorite surf commentator Barton “Papa Surf” Lynch, for example, was unceremoniously sacked for possibly getting too weird, metaphorically economically.
Seeing as nobody doesn’t like Lynch, aficionados worried that Logan’s visual pivot to “socialism” might endanger his position and, thus, upset the apple cart once again after a string of failed CEOs including, but not limited to, Paul Speaker.
Well, a major sigh of relief was exhaled, moments ago, when the Oklahoma native addressed the issue publicly.
In a video trend popular with 11-year-old girls, Logan shared a stunning before and after, writing, “It’s finals week. had to call in the professionals to tame down this Beard situation. lol. @neekobackstage_ exciting times ahead see everyone at lower Trestles! LFG!!!!!”

LFG stands for “let’s fucking go” to the under-informed here.
Logan spared for now.

CHARISMATIC HEAD OF GLOBAL PROFESSIONAL SURFING SHOW PUBLICISES RITUALISTIC FOLICLE-KNIFE APPLICATION KINK WITH GUTTER-TONGUED ACRONYM UNSUITABLE FOR PREVIOUSLY ENGAGED FAMILY-BASED AUDIENCE.
i am so lookin forward for this…scribes…
I’m rather shocked and outraged and upset and distraught and worried and startled and dismayed and aghast that Mr. Logan should choose to use such a VULGAR acronym whereupon a CHILD might view it and become DEGRADED and CORRUPTED by the GUTTER-TONGUED nature of it.
FOR SHAME!!!
massive tool??
Jesus, using social media and the internet for endless self aggrandizement and stroking of one’s narcissistic fantasies. Chas, are you jealous?
His fringe is barrelling, time to straighten out
That clip, that smile, activates my gaydar. Not that there’s anything wrong with that etc.
Poofter! Middle aged men need to stay off of social media.
Bravo, I feel like the term poofter isn’t used enough these days
M.P.G.A.
Surfing sucks
Erik looks like a bloke who’s not allowed within court ordered radius of a school
Or local swimming pool.
It’s my understanding that LFG!!!! means Let’s Fuck Goats!!!!
*Logan Fucks Goats
He sure is trying to with that alleged fine!
Jimmy’s never going to pay that.
The Okies an idiot.
*Logan Fines Goat
Allah Akbar
massive tool is all i can say
It’s a curious affliction but I’ve learned to interpret your various inflections of the phrase to get a sense of the meaning you are intending to communicate.
It started that way, then i realised i just had nothing else to say, but to shake my head and retreat into myself for the last 4-5 hrs
Don’t be off put Tom, you’re still a pleasant chap to be around.
Perhaps you could parlay your verbal limitations into global stardom via an association with an intergalactic hero pirate squad movie franchise, or perhaps a fantastical psuedo-medieval TV series. Catchphrases are always good for at least ten years.
I can be quite eloquent when i need to be!! Unfortunately, this character is everything that is wrong with surfing and now i am just flabbergasted by anything that dribbles out of his mouth in his corporate backslapping rants of shit
I am Groot?
