"The zone is Luke Littler-shaped."
The world’s greatest competitive surfer, Kelly Slater, was elevated to the status of world’s greatest athlete, four-ish years ago, after the then-almost-50 year-old won the prestigious Billabong Pipeline Banzai. Surf media, in particular, putting forth the 11 world titles, Eddie victory, etc. etc., declaring no current living sportsman had done so much, and at such a level, for so long.
Well, the homemade title was ripped from Slater’s hand, days ago, though not handed to a tuff n buff footballer nor wildly intense racketwoman, no. It was torn away by an 18-year-old British chubbster by the name Luke Littler.
The young man plays not the aforementioned football nor tennis, does not run or jump.
He tosses darts and just won back-to-back World Darts Championships. A feat rarer than Tyler Wright not having an injury, ailment, orthodontic emergency.
The Guardian breathlessly attempted to describe Littler’s 7-1 dismantling of his Dutch opponent in the final frame.
“And perhaps the unique genius of Littler is the ability to locate the effortless flow state that produces great darts and to live in it, breathe in it, turn those seven feet of pure windless air into his home and his castle. To whisk sets away from you in the space of two or three minutes of pure magic, and do it again and again. He doesn’t get in the zone. He is the zone. The zone is Littler-shaped.”
Ty Schmit, producer of Pat McAfee’s popular podcast openly called him “arguably the greatest athlete in the world right now.”
The New York Times, chiming in, wondered, too, if he was the greatest athlete alive.
On and on, traditional media digging into the story, stacking Luke Littler up against other currently playing greats and making the case.
His story, a classic. Father a taxi driver just west of Manchester. His mother a candlemaker. Littler tossed his first dart at 18-months old, scored his first 180 at 6, a 9 dart finish at 13, and his first seniors’ title at 14.
And now the ultra-rare back-to-back World Darts Championships with a back-to-back-to-back in his meaty little paw as long as distractions don’t derail.
Darts great Bobby “King of Bling” George advising, “Don’t grow up. You’ll never be skint if you don’t grow up. No girls, no flash cars, no hangers-on. Just do your fucking thing and have your bubble gum.”
Kelly Slater getting no mention.
Not even a crumb.
Well, easy come, easy go, I suppose.
But quickly before you do, which sport is more legitimate, surfing or darts?
Easy answer, I think.
Also, which is your favorite amongst bar games like shuffleboard and pool?

the little guy has only gone and signed a 20m pound sponno deal.
hahaha
darts, what the fuck.
Anyone hear JD Vance talking about the shooting today? America is fucked, like properly fucked. Good luck to all the decent seppos over there
Theyre all like Hippy,
hyperemotional weirdos
https://x.com/i/status/2008690280242049357
It’s a bit of a stretch calling a dart player an athlete. Next, pubs will be lined with Dums (dart mums) stacking clips of their tykes for their darting you tube channels.
Now I would tune in every event for this hahahahaha
This is the comment of year so far on bg. And that is saying something
hey Chas, did you email Hippy and have him comment on the ICE shooting to strike up more comments on the dart Champion article?
you clever lad, you.
That woman’s wife was standing outside the vehicle filming the confrontation. She wanted that confrontation. Fucking wanted it. And she got it.
I respectfully disagreed with you guys on many occasions, stood for your rights despite the disagreements. Lobbied for hearty debate, that remains true, that’s what blogging is. An open exchange of opinion.
This was cut and dry. So was George Floyd. So is extrajudicial murder of foreign nationals. So was the insurrection.
You both can’t admit any fault by the government that you support. The administration lies brazenly with your indignant support. You act in tandem, though you could resist and hold the administration to the truth. But you won’t, it shows that you lack the character of having your own mind, your freedom of choice, a lack of principles. You parrot the lies.
It’s one thing to disagree, even to troll like bexy, but you both paint yourselves into a corner intellectually with defense of the indefensible.
Some things are wrong. Simple as fuck
How dare you. She was protesting ICE while driving an ICE car!!
Lucky its an auto..could have taken out way more with a manual
If it was a Tesla it wouldve steered away from those innocent parked cars!!
thanks so much for your understanding and tolerance.
U R way too kind.
45 sec. mark

https://uploads.disquscdn.c… The wife knows whats up.
Honesty great advice. Lean in and let the fun stuff come later, especially if he’s ripping like he is.
My favorite game is who’s coming home.
So Otto and Happy’s ICE is now killing people in broad daylight. Brazen. Guess it was inevitable.
While Nancy Housewife’s film. What have we become?
That footage is sooooo fucked
So what’s your view of the video…did the ice officer just murder her?
Yeh he murdered her in front of witnesses who caught it on camera. The fact that Donny and his MAGA cult try and pass it off as self defense shows how truly fucked America is
The instant response from the government is crazy, but as Trump said, he viewed the video, and the domestic terrorist has been neutralised, and even though the HERO was run over, he is lucky to be alive, recovering in hospital.
Could you EVEN imagine what could happen if they had just let her drive AWAY!
Like they yelled at first, but she did NOT COMPLY within 5 seconds so….
Soooooooo fucking mental. Do ya reckon the seppo cunts backing it would feel the same if the victim was their own daughter?
Yea.. trying to avoid weighing in on geopolitical matters.. but didn’t look like an attempted ramming to me.. just an attempt to flea
Straight up “WTF”
Did you get email from Cgerk?
yeh I did mate. Is there a forum?
I think you are better off here
Out of the basement
But still the same old Cunt
So is there one? Who from the old crew have signed up? I really miss a few of em
I doubt most the old crew have signed up or even know about it.
The Forums are meant to be further down the track. But that Freedom of opinion is LONG GONE matge.
You are in your element here, and NEGs hasn’t even banned you yet.
Anyone that loves Surfing knows Swellnet and Beachgrit (Not STAB) are where it it at.
They know how to find you if they want to.
Yeh well everyone that signed up to c gerks initial plan got an email today explaining the situation and giving them this site address with the clubhouse name of RMC. Just wondered if you’d seen it brother?
Haha I am still in the process of not being a welcher and sending CCRU his prize, after all that Tariff and Xmas bullshit.
Got till Easter right?
Not even sure what is legal to send, in case it deemed a narcotic and then they kidnap our Prime Minister
I don’t even have his address haha. Hey check out the proper darts clip I posted at the top of this thread cuz you will fucking love it hahahaha
Yeah, nothing like a good game of Darts between drinking.
Respect to ya one mate that has the balls to write to score on the chalk board while the next darts are incoming,
When law enforcement tells you to get out of the vehicle, exit the vehicle. Don’t accelerate the 4,000 pound weapon towards an officer standing in front of you.
The leadership in Minneapolis is disgraceful, and Walz should be arrested for treason threatening to call in the National Guard to fight the Federal government.
Actions have consequences. Assaults against ICE officers is up 1,400%
I’m not sure about you getting top billing at Otto and Happy’s ICE.
A decidedly inequitable outcome
You are not Christian
That actually sounds like a compliment
???
have no idea what that’s supposed to mean.
are you trying to insult me?
at this point I’d have to ask the Otto question: “are you on drugs again?”
I’m sure when the autopsy is performed, the government will claim that there was fentanyl in her system and she would have died anyway
You know what you won’t see tonight, a bunch of black people rioting and looting in the name of a liberal white woman.
And outcomes the racist POS.
Know what else you see? Otto having anything to do with military force or police actions. Unless, of course, it’s in the new Barbie and Ken movie. They do lots of pretend stuff.
Dude, you are so Ned Nederlander you don’t know how Ned Nederlander you are.
resort to childish when logic and truth fail
Hardly pal, he’s made baseless, childish accusations for so long, it’s just dumb. He can’t point to any comment where I said I was a veteran, yet accuses me, constantly, of saying I’m a veteran, to discredit anything I say that he knows is truth.
You just don’t get it. You give the constant IMPRESSION that you are a military and law enforcement expert. It’s constant. So much so that Chas asked your take about it. My whole thing is that you cosplay, constantly.
No, that just isn’t true. Chas asked my opinion because I’m one of very few Trump supporters here. That was his motivation.
You just don’t get it
Failure to stop is not a capital offense
But your taking the clowns version of this and you haven’t seen the murder video
I’ve seen the video.
Stop dehumanizing that ICE Agent, a man who’d like to return to his family at the end of the day.
The leaders in Minneapolis have encouraged this dangerous behavior by that woman, have endorsed this dangerous behavior by that woman, who made a series of really dangerous decisions, decisions she made wholly on her own, that culminated in her death by lawful use of deadly force by a law enforcement officer.
I just watched the video…..she looked very dangerous sitting in her car…definitely merited being shot 3 times…..and the car didn’t touch anyone!
Justified use of lethal force. All day, every day.
yep the chicken shit TACO led ICE…terrified of an unarmed women…so fucken shoot her dead……..justify in MAGA terms, everything MAGA says is fact……
No facts, they eat lies and regurgitate them
Are you a cosplay ex-police officer and a military vet now? Stop acting like you know shit that you know nothing about and have no experience with. It’s embarrassing for you and offensive to actual vets and cops.
Anyone with actual combat experience and those that have and know how to handle firearms don’t constantly spew nonsense about it. You don’t fit that description.
When did I say I was a veteran?
When did I say I was former cop?
Yes, I do know a lot about firearms, from a very young age. Blame my father, if you think that is somehow a bad thing.
I also know a lot about shooting someone in self defense. Learned that lesson at a very young age too.
If you can’t come up with a quote from some comment of mine where I “claim” to be a veteran, then I suggest you just stop with the baseless accusations. It’s quite embarrassing for you.
I can tell you what’s embarrassing ….trying to claim that ice guy who shot the woman was in self defense….really?
Have one of your friends come over to your place. A friend with a full size SUV.
Stand in front of it, 4-5 feet, close to the left front fender but still in front.
Have your friend step on the gas.
Try, and hopefully be successful, stepping out of the way.
Then come back here and tell us whether or not you thought you were gonna be hit with a lethal weighted vehicle.
so kill the driver…is that the penalty..?
Yes. Some bad decisions are worse than others.
Edit: I also believe she would have never even been there if not for the violent rhetoric of the politicians in Minneapolis and Minnesota
bit like Ashli…she got her just deserts!
and there it is
Treason is a capital offense
Never Trumps fault
Has he ever done anything wrong in your eyes? Infallible?
How about stop demonizing ICE Officers.
Wear ID
Act in accordance to the law
Why should I stop demanding ICE operate legally?
They are.
are you on drugs again?
Her wife was outside the vehicle standing there filming it. She wanted to be dangerous, wanted confrontation. She got it.
Did you get that from your military and police training?
you’re the defendant and your life (in prison) depends on it – if the jury is just looking at this video, do you actually go to trial or cop the plea? Video doesn’t look great for you, president can’t pardon you for state crime convictions, etc… ps. have to make the call in 10 minutes, prosecutor pulling the offer if you don’t take it asap.
Go to trial. That woman’s wife was standing outside the vehicle filming a deadly confrontation that she and her wife wanted to do. Intent.
Hope orange is your color.
His defense attorney will tear that woman’s wife a new asshole
And it won’t matter, bc when you shoot someone when you’re not facing imminent danger (or when you created any danger that exists) it can’t be justified.
She’s committing obstruction of federal law enforcement.
What happens when we find out she was paid to be there
Won’t get that evidence to the jury. Has nothing to do with whether officer faced imminent danger. This case will be tried in federal court, most likely. Fed judge will keep it tight on the key issues.
try this on for size..first shot/head shot….next 2 shots head shots……3 bullets in the head, sounds reasonable!
That’s how little you understand, dear Otto, about trials. You don’t chop a sympathetic witness to bits with a hatchet on cross-examination, even if they are perjuring themsleves. You make a few, well placed surgical cuts with a scalpel that denies them the ability to turn on the waterworks when on the stand, and then move on.
Evil
Fuck the shooter. Put him on trial for murder
ironically, a couple lawyers recently forecast what this would look like and all the procedural complexities that would go with it … so if you want to nerd out on the legal quagmire that’s about to ensue, here you go: https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/state-prosecutions-of-federal-agents-and-the-presidential-pardon-power
JANUARY 6
YOU’RE A DUMB M’F’ER
“when law enforcement tells you to not overthrow democracy…”
you’re a joke, brother.
I love you and give all my grace to you; but you’re not to be taken seriously. Me neither tho
Would you say there’s a “plethora” of assaults against ICE agents?
Worse than “plethora”.
Assaults against ICE Agents are rampant
Only because there’s more present. If they go away, problem solved. You’re welcome.
More illegals, more ICE.
This isn’t some subtle nuance of cause and effect.
Too bad greed isn’t illegal.
How about stop being sanctuary cities and honor ICE detainers? They wouldn’t have to be there then
The US used to be a sanctuary country.
Nope. Always had immigration laws.
Nope.
Naturalization Act of 1790
an immigration law
Thanksgiving.
why?
so which one you talking about….the illegal immigrant that was stopped, then takes off dragging an officer down the road and injuring the officer, or the pig protester blocking the middle of the road in her SUV so ICE couldn’t get through and then tried to run over an officer as she tried to speed off?
watch the videos
I’d like to see any videos from the other side of the street (if any) to confirm, but the few ones I’ve seen are consistent with the shooter agent being very well out of the vehicle’s trajectory, and then moving in to take the shots.
Granted, Otto has fought in WW2, the Korean War, Vietnam, and both Iraq Wars, so perhaps he has greater insight into this than my veteran and LEO buddies do.
Either way, credit to ICE and this administration in the communications department—they are doing a very good job of making it clear that ICE agents are looking for any excuse to shoot you dead if you do anything whatsoever to piss them off.
Have you asked your veteran and LEO buddies their opinion?
About your extensive military experience, or about the murder video? With regard to the former, one would think that would be self-evident. With regard to the latter, I have.
stop being as retarded as Barrelled.
So what did your “buddies” have to say?
glad you asked. the FBI field agent says that it looked unjustified given the circumstances and 100% could have been avoided. The marine vet says there’s no way you fought in Vietnam. Still waiting on a few other fellas to weigh in.
That marine vet is rather impressive, having figured out I’m not old enough to have fought in Vietnam.
What a silly question to ask your vet friend.
he’s questioning your character
Never said I fought in Vietnam. So what is he questioning, and the why is based on what?
The part where you make people think you are a vet, law enforcement, and/or some sort of expert on related matters.
You mean to tell me you draw an erroneous conclusion based on fucking comments, and that’s my fault for you being a dumbass?
You’re ridiculous
I make no such conclusion. I think you’re a fake, a phony, a liar, a valor stealing wannabe tough guy with toy guns. It’s just that you try to present yourself as something else.
You did draw a wrong conclusion, and have repeatedly, and continue to do so, make baseless accusations.
You know nothing. Don’t act like you do.
Anytime you’d like to meet up, and challenge my tough guy status, I’m down for that.
Tower 9, Tower 9, paging Tower 9! Otto, you know when you’re in MOntana, that threats against other BG commenters fall to 0?
He’s inferring that you’ve never sacrificed in service
you’d like the guy. hellfire missiled and minigunned a bunch of verified Taliban in Afghanistan only for your boy Trump to make a deal with those very same jihadists to hand the country right back over.
Sounds like a stand up sort.
Does he think we should have kept Bagram?
He thinks Trump was a moron and a betrayer of veterans and the families of the fallen for agreeing to the deal in the first place, and wonders what the point of it all was, particularly given some of his friends and squad mates dying. Having to be the guy who formally IDs a friend based on a severed head doesn’t sound like something I’d ever forget.
No offense, but I’ll defer to his thoughts on the subject over yours.
Hopefully that FBI field agent tells his supervisors how he feels, and really, really makes sure they understand how he feels.
you should hear his opinion of Kash Patel!
Tell me his opinion of James Comey
ICE created the confrontation out of thin air
No officer should attempt to even open her door, that’s escalating an unnecessary conflict. The Agents truck was not stuck in snow. None of their version has any accuracy
two of my sons are LEO’s both born in late July. they see it differently.
there’s a few videos out there that have the view showing the officer directly in front of the car when she accelerates forward.
Shooter moves in for the shot
She did nothing wrong
What’s wrong with you
I watched many angles. he does not have his gun drawn when he approaches the car and only pulls his gun as she reverses. his hand is actually on the (front) hood of her car when she reverses.
The agent that shot her was four feet to the left of her car as she was going past him. That was murder.
His first shot was through the front windshield.
It went through the side of the front windshield at an angle.
You don’t know that, and so what?
Ashli Babbitt was unarmed sticking her head through a broken window, and you all believe she deserved to be shot. She wasn’t wielding a 4,000 pound weapon
ashli babbitt was one of the Jan 6 rioters , who tried to violently breach the Capitol…..she got shot by a police officer while she was crawling thru a smashed window…..she was a QAnon supporter…..investigation proved it was a justified act to shoot her!
Ashli Babbitt posed no threat of grave bodily injury or death.
That woman in Minneapolis did
You are a fucking puppet who does nothing but repeats what you hear on OANN. Grow a brain that functions without Trumps hand up your ass.
It’s as if there are not multiple videos and witnesses. Trump, Noem….. out in front of the story with bullshit
The shooter walked toward the deceased wreckage when the film stopped, he was not hurt at all. He stepped in front of the car to shoot the driver.
His nonchalance was a bit odd. Just ask Otto. He’s very experienced in police and military matters.
You see him walk toward the crash casually
The other agents didn’t know what to do, holy shit, he shot her
The shooter was unharmed. No hozzy necessary
he was in front of the car before she moved.
his hand was on the hood of the car when she reversed.
He moved in to shoot
incorrect.
Watch
I did….from many angles
Shots 2 and 3 from the side. How is that possibly justified??
I watch a lot of police shows so have exceptional knowledge, and from what they say on those shows:
Police are trained to shoot to kill, not injure.
at least that’s………what they say.
Even if legit threat on shot 1, can’t just stand to side and unload a couple more once threat erased.
we’ll see what happens. Lots of chaos right now.
the police officer thought there was a chance of bodily harm and she was a threat….
The woman in Minneapolis…..had 3 officers come at her…..one fired 3 deadly shots….car didn’t touch him…but deadly force……..
But that’s what sheriff Otto would have done. He’s a very experienced police officer.
WHAT?
because someone believes in crazy conspiracy theories she deserves to die? wow.
girl was 5’2″ tall, weighed 115 pounds, was on the other side of the door and had no weapon.
Biden DOJ decided not to file charges. hardly reliable.
Are fucking blind? Are you ok with treason? She was part of an attempt to violently discredit a fair election. There’s fucking footage, we watched the insurrection live.
the problem is when one believes in crazy conspiracies , then she is involved in riots at the Capitol , where police were charged with protecting the Capitol……she was also an air force veteran……the lady who was shot and killed in Minneapolis…..was no danger to anyone!
None, first degree murder
thank you, so the Air Force veteran who was part of a disruption in which police officers allowed protesters into the capital and even gave protesters tours, but believes in conspiracy theories, should die.
the radical leftist activist who impedes federal law enforcement believing law enforcement should not be allowed to enforce federal laws, does not follow the commands of the officers, accelerates her car towards officers trying to speed off (no danger to anyone) should not be shot.
got it.
BTW ~ ICE = federal police (whom)
wereare charged with protectingthe Capitolthe people of the United Stateswow HC, so the police officers were giving protestors a guided tour….FFS Happy , really…what about the hang Mike Pence chant, destruction of property and illegal entry into the Capitol…so she was shot and killed…..illegal behavior , threatening behavior…….
How do you know she was a radical leftist activist…….she was reversing to let a ice car go by then goes forward and get’s 3 shots to the head….
How’s the epstein files going?
I think the problem lies in the partisan nature of all this crap. Libs dismiss the Babbitt situation as her being bad, blame the victim. Conservatives do the same to things like this, blame the victim. Our cuntry and society are fucked until we can get towards the middle as a whole.
Babbit put herself in the middle of a lawless act of treason, no blaming, she wasn’t a victim
The murdered driver was leaving an authoritarian scene, a victim
Youd have done the same thing. Right Hip?
I would not have attacked the capital under any circumstances on Jan 6
Good boy.
I get that this amuses you
Too soon?
Thank you Sir. Until each “side” admits the ridiculous shit going on every day by both “sides” then we are fucked.
I admire Hippy and tbh fuckin love the guy in many ways. But… I’ve never heard him admit any wrongdoings by the “Left”.
This shooting looks wrong to me. But how would you feel if you were the mother of Laken Riley ( not sure I spelled that right )?
Like barreled says until we can all point out injustice equally without blinders on them we are doomed
“Then” not “them”
He shoulve shot all of them, right? There was about 8 evil insurrectors around her.
hmm, rioters smashed thru doors etc , he was protecting Capitol hill…..she was the one who stuck her head thru the smashed window..and got shot….do you think,”hang Mike pence!” was justified also?
Believe all women!!
Photos don’t lie, but you’ll say anything
then there were 2 shots through the window….ice guy must have shit himself…..and killed her because she obviously came too close with her car….sounds reasonable for the USA!
Ok cosplay. I’m sure you’ve been in that situation and are an expert on police matters.
she is/was a USA citizen!
Yep here comes the misinformation….it was her fault….agent didn’t get hit by car…she was reversing….but you are right , she was unarmed and shot dead….3 bullets….sounds reasonable
Oops my mistake, I thought there were two incidents. the illegal immigrant one was from September.
I just rewatched the video from many angles.
During an ICE protest, a woman blocks an ICE vehicle by straddling her the road with her SUV.
two officers get out of the truck and approach her vehicle form the drivers side.
one ICE officers approach the vehicle from the front
one officer yells at her to get out of the car while…..
another officer on the drivers side tries to unlock the door to remove her from the vehicle.
the driver throws her vehicle in reverse.
as she backs up, the front officer has his other hand on the hood of her car, and then draws his weapon
the driver then accelerates straight at the front officer as he steps out of the way, gets narrowly grazed by her car, then fires on her.
The victim and her wife are well known protesters whom have had many incidents with law enforcement.
I am not making a judgement, but I have a question.
if you are blocking the road with your car and impeding law enforcement during a heated protest, is it:
a. better to curse at the officers and continue to block the road?
b. better to throw your car into reverse then in to froward and drive straight at an officer?
c. better to obey the officers commands and go home safely to your wife and family?
pretty much all I have to say about it.
here come the darts.
Her front wheels clearly turned away from officer. Not aiming at him. Wild excessive force.
How the fuck could he see her wheels while standing in front of SUV staring at her through the windshield?
So if a woman drove close to you and you felt threatened……kill her?
If she’s already there to be confrontational, and is now armed with a vehicle, then yes.
would you shoot her 3 times in the head knowing your first shot killed her?
you just answered your own questions when you said “woman” driving.
Serious situation but… that comment went into the excellent range
He could certainly see her cranking her steering wheel hard right.
from the time she hit reverse to the time she was shot was….3 seconds.
Imagine that.
Officer tells her get out of the car.
she engages reverse,
drives in reverse,
disengages reverse,
engages drive
and accelerates…..
and the officer whom is standing in front of the vehicle has to determine in 3 seconds whether she is trying to kill him,
whether she is crazy,
whether she is dangerous,
whether she could endanger someone else….
and whether her wheels are turned right or left.
3 SECONDS
how long did it take you to read this?
correction:
if you are blocking the road with your car and impeding armed law enforcement during a heated protest, is it:
a. better to curse at the officers and continue to block the road?
b. better to throw your car into reverse then into forward, turn your wheels away from the officer narrowly missing him drive in his general direction?
OR
c. better to obey the officers commands and go home safely to your wife and family?
to repeat , whether it was a bright idea is not the point, it wasn’t a capital offense
Free Luigi!!
my 5 year old recently discovered Mario , insists I play as Luigi every time
Cool,hes a lefty hero for shooting a guy in the back, amazing!!
aahh, well that one is a punk ass bitch, no hero
Fair enuff
you and I weren’t there. we don’t know what the driver said before she put the car into gear….or her attitude/mental state.
nor do we know the thoughts of the officer and whether or not he felt his life and the safety of others was in danger.
arm chair quarterbacking is pretty easy, but when you are in an already volatile situation like these anti-ICE rallies/riots and people are screaming hate at you, adrenaline is pumping and someone outwardly becomes aggressive…….reactions and consequences change quickly.
one thing I know 100% for certain; had she got out of her vehicle and followed the instructions of the officers, she’d be alive today and we’d talking about darts.
You can’t just shoot people bc you’re over hyped
didn’t say you could…..but I’d imagine a lot more shootings occur in emotionally charged situations, than not.
But lesson leared
Happy Camper has lost his ability to be human.
There’s no way to defend the video.
It never had to happen.
thanks pal.
appreciate you standing up for me and excusing me from the burden of humanity and libsplaining my views to Chas.
for a second there I thought you may just judge me.
I think he wants us iced.
At some point, you admit a situation is fucked
Defending a murder is not that
Your mind has been poisoned by propaganda
is Nancy Housewife hot?
Was her car ok?
Looked fucked up from hitting a car and pole. Special price for you.
Dont want those nasty ICE powered cars.
I never would have thought you’d be an EV type guy.
Yeah man, its free fuel and zero emmisions, im with the lefty protesters on this one, Ban ICE!!
Lawn Darts. If you’re not willing to be impaled by a 4 inch steel dart, then don’t dart at all.
I think I’ve hit peak summer holidays relaxation. I just watched 5 minutes of darts highlights and found it entertaining in an asmr type way. It just needed commentary from Joe. Kaips and Strider to fully send me into a hypnotic slumber.
Joe: “….and we’re back for finals day. such a beautiful day for darts, Kaipo”
Kaipo: “Well Joe, ya’ know….the Hawaiian word for dart is Ihe, pronounced “ee-hay”, and the game of dart throwing is pronounced pāhiʻuhiʻu. I actually come from a line of great ka’ā’ī and know a lot fo the greats, but I’ll tell you Joe…. Littler’s a specimen”
Joe: “Nice….yes he is Kaips….and a great human. such a fun person and everyone on tour loves him. tell you Kaips, his story is a classic. Father a taxi driver just west of Manchester. His mother a candlemaker. Littler tossed his first dart at 18-months old, scored his first 180 at 6, a 9 dart finish at 13, and his first seniors’ title at 14. here we go…..looks like Littler’s in the zone……and looks like Striders got something for us. Strider?”
Strider: “yeah Joe, He doesn’t get in the zone. He is the zone. The zone is Littler-shaped. Oh….. Ouch……looks like a bad miss…..let me pull this dart out of my forehead and get back to you Joe.”
Joe: “yeah, wow….speaking of zones, Strider always willing to put himself in the zone even if he has to take one on the head. Kaipo”
Kaipo: “well, you know what they say Joe, a dart in the forehead is better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. stick in Hawaiian being a hoʻopili or lāʻau, pronou……..”
Producer: “Cut Kaipo’s mic”
That’s genius!
LMAO. So good HC.
Speaking of pudgy winners
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1xxdgtWxmw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjXAfhP8RkY
based on recent comment battles, I’d say Beach Grit commenters are much better dart throwers.
It is fair to say that we the BG commenters only care about the cage match between Slater and Chas. But will our thirst for blood be satisfied?
BTW, I have badge envy today as that 2 star troll badge is sexyAF!
If Chas wins Slater has to unblock him!
F YEAH!.
I worked hard for that badge. Tell you who doesn’t have a two star troll badge….. Kelly Slater, or Big Littler.
I even tattooed it on my chest like Felipes’ lion.
Sexy is as Sexy does.
I’d be all over you if I was into men!
When you’re about to drop such a stupid story, consider please just dropping an open thread.
Let the fuckery go where it goes.
Come on Hippy, you Chas is just trying to drum up more theater for the Slater v Chas cage match. Or will it end up unsanctioned behind Tower 9 on Youtube?
You know Picard, these Tower 9 grudge matches have precedent.
Back in the day during the Post Surf era, our very own Gwen Walz’s Eyes challenged the iconic Buccaneer to a fight behind the Claim Jumper on Palomar Airport Road.
Buccaneer, a full 140 lbs lighter, showed. This was before Gwen’s transition surgery from Tired of Winning to the her new self, female long boarder charger
The rematch, once TOW took so much shit for no showing, was re scheduled for Tip Top Meat market off Palomar Airport Road (RIP Tip Top, loved that place).
Once again, Buccaneer showed and we ended up having the prime rib special together waiting for the big fella who never showed.
And Trauzersnake gave up an evening of work to referee…. bad form GWE’s…. you could have at least told Chris to go to work.
I love this!
Darts look cooler when Noa Deane does them. You know, the dude who released some epic clips this year, that you think a surf website would feature/review. No bullseye here, sadly.
Noa surfs so good
Real real good
A feat rarer than…
“Chas making the barrel at Old Baldies tub”.
Darts is definitely a more legitimate sport than surfing, with a clear winner and free of suspect judging calls etc.
I’ve never played shuffleboard but after seeing it on The Love Boat as a youngster have always intended to take it up on a cruise ship in my 70’s…
that would make a rad episode of LoveBoat ™️ a salty, grumpy Kiwi pensioner, looking for love, hits the darts while reminiscing on the barrel ride that ended in close out
I’m in need of a hanky already!!
Luke would be a lot like Alexander the Great – conquering the known world by 18 – if Alexander was a soft pudgy pasty chav who specialized in playing a sordid parlor game against smelly looking opponents in front of truly the least attractive fans in the world! Take a bow Luke! The people’s champion!
“When Alexander of Macedon was 33, he cried salt tears because there were no more worlds to conquer. Eric Bristow is only 27” – take a bow, Sid Wardell – us surfers can only dream of such commentary!
don’t forget how much piss get’s drunk there , maybe Luke’s brain hasn’t been addled by the alcohol culture of darts….
Air hockey
How did Bonnie Blue get left out of your equation?
