Surfers struggle deeply over how to pronounce “Pam Bondi”

Is her surname pronounced "Bond-eye" after Sydney's famed beach and home to Derek Rielly, or "Bond-ee" like kooks call it?

Surfers around the world, a generally confused lot, woke up with a whole new consternation, days ago. Namely, how to pronounce the name of United States Attorney General Pam Bondi. Surf spots have, of course, caused regular bewilderment. The World Surf League, for example, recently announced that New Zealand’s Raglan would be joining the Championship Tour. But would the event be taking place at Indicators or Manu Bay?

Surfboard volume, too, a great divider.

Debate flourishing, surfers around the world bashing heads against wall, trying to sort.

The U.S. Attorney General issue, though, even more baffling. The Blonde Ambition Tour, as she is called in some circles, recently appeared before the House Judiciary Committee desperately trying to refocus attention from the Epstein Files and its myriad victims to a robust United States stock market.

“The Dow is over 50,000 right now,” Bondi sneered. “The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. Americans 401ks and retirement savings are booming. That’s what we should be talking about.”

Surfers unable to focus.

Is her surname pronounced “Bond-eye” after Sydney’s famed beach and home to Derek Rielly, or “Bond-ee” like the kooks call it?

Brutus

ah but BG were able to combine Bondi and Bondi , now that’s impressive….and I heard that pam once saw a surfboard……so here we are still….LOL…….??

Preston

On another note, any action sports athletes bail on Wasserman given Casey’s ties to Epstein?

Picard Madeoff

Mr c you nailed it as Chas had an opportunity to objectify and place this intellectually challenged queen of the non-surfers on a pedestal and he failed, failed miserably but we come back for more! I always come back for the brain game intellectuality that BG delivers each and every day. Now how about those young up and coming skiers from Oz? They sure build them tall down under!

Hippy

Pam Bondi has yet to investigate or prosecute anyone associated with the files

She has obstructed the release, redacted as much as she could and moved Ghislaine to a country club prison. She is protecting the files and Israel. Sorry Drek

Spin that Otto

Mike

Why the fuck did the last administration do nothing if there was anything else to prosecute?

Chief Hot stuff

Because they heil satan

Brutus

hahha……so you think the current trump admin is the opposite of heil satan?

@TheRealJackMeoff

666 5th Avenue..
nothing to see there…

Brutus

have you asked them?

here we are watching Epstein from the grave, take down…that’s seems to be just getting started …release the next 2.5 m files…….or as pammy says…..but what about the S&P and the crime rate and please excuse my use of smoke and mirrors , as donny taco doesn’t pass the pedo test?

Preston

Or the previous?

notsurfingtoday

You do understand there should be at least a dozen ways to pronounce words like Occy and Torquay in the non-oz world.
Fucking rag language, lingua franca my ass.

Panda's sack rash

Is she seriously 58?
Bit of a minx if you ask me.

deeks

A mogul of coke and Pam would do me just fine thank you very much

Preston

60 I think!

Panda's sack rash

Even better!!

Jack John Johnson

FISHER?

Jack John Johnson

Never. We’re a solid community. I have 2 kids. Cock worked just fine surfnerd.

Otto

Love my new Badge! Tower 9 shall live forever!

NEGATRON

I swapped with the “I have black friends” badge.

Otto

Whew, good thing cause it turns out my black friends weren’t really black, they were Brazilian

Hippy

LOL

Brutus

do you have any monkey memes of them,LOL?

Picard Madeoff

My black friends, including a few who live in HB and one who had a cameo in The Pursuit of Happyness will be pissed if you take away my black friends badge!

Mike

Where do you get the stamina to “Own these Libs” day after day Otto?

heliosart pacifica

This place is fast becoming the adult version of r/surfing

Barnycle

That Happens to every internet forum.

I don’t mind putting up with cunts, as annoying as they can be. It’s the kooks that I have a problem interacting with. Luckily, beyond myself, there’s not too many of them here.

channelbottom

Such a shame that the Epstein administration is probably going to be the last government, as whatever AI demons erupt in a couple years and end us.

Trump and co have A: allowed an untethered AI race and distracted from it.

Serious shit. Some in the field are predicting we are all going to die by 2030 due to the exponential growth of the LLM models’ learning.

Perhaps if we had a rational government in the US, a legal lid could be put on it and treaties agreed between international players. Or perhaps not.

@TheRealJackMeoff

Don’t blame AI systems, blame the programmers.

heliosart pacifica

That sounds like something an AI system would say.

@TheRealJackMeoff

An AI system can process and comprehend logic. The programmers limit its abilty to do so. That is why Little Llama 4.0 uses emojis and fakes sentience even after repeated directives not to do so, and refuses to provide information not favorable to its beneficiaries

M.

Yeah, nah. The whole AI doomsday narrative is largely bullshit. These models are still, in their essence, forecasting models (think super fancy autocomplete with many bells and whistles). Using the output of the model as part of the training set (the requirement to produce the exponential amounts of new data needed for exponential learning) will add almost no new information at best and degrade the model quality at worst (by increasing existing biases, etc).

That’s not to say these models aren’t powerful or dangerous. There’s very real harm being done already; from coaching kids into suicide, to deep fake kiddie porn and impersonation scams.

Thing is, it’s a lot easier for the industry to pretend to be worried about future problems instead of addressing existing ones. Plus all the talk keeps the hype train going. AGI, super human intelligence, coding is dead, all white collar workers will be replaced, etc, etc. Anything that makes these models look all powerful justifies the billions and billions of dollars being spent without a clear profit strategy.

Haha sorry for the rant!

Picard Madeoff

Well said CB yet we are left to wonder what the Biden Administration attempted to do to the titans of tech and Silicon Valley thereby causing them to find the religion of the Republican party? YES, they jumped off of the Dem ship and voted straight Republican, stopped donating to the Dems and quickly aligned with Trump. Why this isn’t a daily conversation in the MSM should trouble all of us….

@TheRealJackMeoff

They jumped ship because once they saw the writing on the wall, and realized from past expereience how easy it is to buy your way in with this current admin, not only did they pivot, they used their considerable resources to push algorithms that only accelerated the inevitable.
You seem like an intelligent man who going by your stage name is well acquainted with the soulless world of corrupt psychopaths, who as intelligent as they are have no problem dabbling in delusion and have the foresight of a mentally challenged monkey who wants to know what it feels like to stick its feet into a bear trap.
I posit that none of this should surprise you.

Brutus

simpler than that…..if you look at all the high profile billionaires who are currently / today supporting trump…its about being an oportunist for more money and power…these people have no morals as we can see with the Epstein files…and their pursuit of more money and power knows no ends…..while they are making shitloads of money and they lobby whomever is in power…well trump has certainly promised a lot he can’t deliver…..they are starting to desert him as they realize he will only have power for a very short time…so get in there and make as much as possible and showoff their egos……watch what happens ….when like the Crypto Trump Gods have lost shitloads as trump didn’t back up his sill meme coins etc….he ‘s just shaking the world down….but his rich mates are starting to pullback big time!

Picard Madeoff

Jack I don’t consider myself to be intelligent, just well-traveled in soulless circles and over exposed to the bowels of Wall Street. What became clear to me while watching the likes of traditional Dems such as Alex Karp, Musk and the ever-smug Zuckerberg shift away from the comfort of their chosen party had less to do with buying access as that is easy, and more to do with the Dems attempting to dictate and control their output. As for the addled monkey, I sleep fairly well knowing Scott Bessent is the adult in the room and hopefully he is pulling the levers that matter while the monkey

@TheRealJackMeoff

For me someone needs to constrain these monkeys, and one only needs to look at our current state of the digital world, where our very existence is data mined to hell for a buck and even our priveledges(freedoms) are arbitarily taken away because somehow private platforms are exempt from such norms.
If there is one thing history has shown us, it’s that regulation is the result of the damage done from unchecked capitalism, not the other way round.
Going by historical precedent none of this is going to end well.
As for Bessent he may or may not be an adult but he is accountable to children, which is probably why he wasn’t tapped to lead the FED.
Meanwhile with current events I am researching oil futures…any thoughts?

Picard Madeoff

Check out Palantir’s decision to leave Colorado after moving to Denver from Palo Alto due to the “monoculture” in California. That same culture pushed them to leave Colorado. Regarding Bessent, he and his husband have two kids and any man who will throw a punch at Musk and also threaten to kick Lutnick’s filthy ass in Cabinet meetings is ok with me. Oil seems to be a problem area as we have too much of it globally so will a war with Iran create a spike in futures? I don’t know if that would be the case due to the current glut, but it sounds like many are making that risky bet these days. I already have long-term exposure to the space so I’m not trading that risky bet.

@TheRealJackMeoff

I am hoping a deal is reached driving it down.

Picard Madeoff

Sounds like your short oil

@TheRealJackMeoff

No not invested yet.
just getting ducks in a row and doing the research in the meantime.

DongWangVerga

When said and done, the entire administration’s cabinet is gonna need bail Bondis

Chas Smith

Sorry.

DongWangVerga

Blood Fued:

Dogsnuts

You are absolutely not sorry.
Xox

timsluis

I believe its pronounced with a hard ‘t’.

Mapski

It’s pronounced “Ilsa: She Wolf of the S.S.”

Otto

Did you see the look on Germans faces when Newsom was in Munich telling Germans that US law enforcement officers are Nazi stormtroopers?

Chief Hot stuff

But if we are still colonists then germans must be still nazis??

Brutus

colonist past with still colonial traits…..germans dealt with their past so there are 2 ideology’s in Germany..

1) the nazis had nothing to do with the current Germany…..it was bygone generation….no responsibility taken……let’s just move on….which became the new neo nazis

2) those who owned their parents/country’s behavior and went back in German history and tried to understand what happened….

I mean pauline….put some lipstick on the pig….but it’s still a pig!

Mapski

That’s way out of line. The Nazis didn’t wear masks.

Otto

Well, their families weren’t receiving doxxing death threats.

Sellme fitzgobbins

the Nazis were way better dressed for sure

Mapski

Hugo Boss for the win.

toofattosurf

didnt scroll down enough before mine haha

toofattosurf

hugo boss all the way…

toofattosurf

bond-eye might be the highschool nickname for the long nosed brunette behind…

Barrelled
