Kelly Slater provoked after supplement co. asks “Why are there no bald surfers or homeless men?”

"I rarely see any surfers with hair loss..."

The world’s greatest surfer was provoked, overnight, after Carnivore Aurelius asked its million-plus Instagram followers to consider “Why are there no bald surfers or homeless men?” In a series of slides, the beef-based supplement company made the case that balding is not genetic nor hair loss normal and that modern living, diet and medication are the actual causes. Proving that point, two pictures were provided as evidence. One of a “20-year-old man living in a high-rise spending $200 a month on ‘hair loss products'” with very thin, receding hair. The other of a “random 40-year-old homeless man that hasn’t taken a bath in 10 years” who looks like Barton Lynch.

The other major problem is men staying indoors. “Hair loss is generally from a sunlight deficiency, grounding deficiency, mineral imbalances and excess stress,” Carnivore Aurelius explained, adding, “I rarely see any surfers with hair loss” providing the caveat, without further expansion, “yes Kelly Slater is bald.”

Many more slides followed but for the TLDR crowd, the caption summed up the point:

Hair loss in your 20s isn’t normal, and Minoxidil isn’t the answer… nor is a trip to Turkey. Your hair is a mirror of your metabolism. lose it young and your body is telling you something much bigger is coming.Fix the root cause–sunlight, red light, thyroid support, seed oil elimination, zinc, beef liver, colostrum, collagen, and yes, disappearing from modern society helps too.

Well, Slater, ever the jouster, answered the lead question, why are there no bald surfers or homeless men, with a real zinger.

“Cause they fly to Türkiye?”

Hammertown and The Roast of Kevin Hart-level funny. Imagine the streets of Istanbul just choked with bald surfers and bald homeless men.

Very silly.

But seriously, are you won over by the argument? Is your lineup filled with hirsute mans or are the Luke Cedermans well represented?

If you were won over, you can shop an assortment of colostrum, collagen and beef liver pills here then report back regarding results.

Good luck.

I think they do it to throw us off on picking our fantasy team.

Taddy Mason

More dudes jerkin it to Andrew Hubermann than Riley Reid these days

deeks

HaHaha it’s the implementation cuz….chee !

channelbottom

Hey some of us men are bald AND homeless.
(finger guns, a wink and that clicky mouth sound)

Capt Sensible

Let me guess it involves Flick

Chazz Michael Michaels

I’d prefer not to hear anything about Tyler. Thanks.

NEGATRON

Think that’s the 3rd time now I’ve seen him ask. Guessing he’s an only child.

Chazz Michael Michaels

But I thought you were plugged into the WSL on a personal level? Why would you need “some local fella” to tell you this?

Chazz Michael Michaels

Joe’s still limbering up. I hear he gargles a solution of jordy’s tears and Tyler’s menstrual blood that he keeps in a jar with a mermaid’s heart.

Blowin

Shhhh. You’ll scare the horses and someone’s left the barn door of the entire Australian economy wide open.

Blowin

Wait….are you trying to tell me that Joe Turpel has been lying to smooth the unnatural edges of the WSL corporation?

How long has this been going on?

“This swell will fill in today (Thursday) ahead of a peak through this afternoon, before easing from a slow 2-3 foot on the sets inside Manu Bay tomorrow morning. Saturday will dawn with lower period, leftover 2 foot sets.

Local conditions look OK both days – bumpy early but improving by midday. Mornings will see moderate east-southeast devil winds adding up-the-face, epoxy-hating chop which will ease as the day heats up and wind swings to a south-southwest angle.

Expect action to kick off early and finish late, all run with overlapping heats

On Sunday, one of those aforementioned distant swells will arrive. Not a typical Raglan swell, it’ll come from a strong frontal progression to the south-west of Western Australia – 6,500kms away.

Fetches of near storm-force winds aimed slightly towards the polar shelf follow a Great Circle Path under Australia, around Tasmania, and up the Tasman.

The swell should build towards an inconsistent 2 foot to occasionally 3 foot into the afternoon Sunday, before easing into Monday.”

Sounds almost unsurfable.

They are just prepping for no waves, and so they can finish the remaining heats with a surfboard swinging session in the carpark.

Is there a carpark?

On that nice grass then

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

Thinking about dumping another 20 USD on Surfvival but the forey has me stumped.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

That sounds like what a gambler would say.

Chances are you will lose it again.

Go spend the $20 on something better

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

ok cheers Pop.

need some more Pagey wax.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

At least you will be able to hold and rub the Pagey Wax Guaranteed with your own hands.

The other is basically just a Pipe Dream

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

you’re full of wisdom Pop.

NEGATRON

Next year join our Fantasy game. $100 NZD in. Two custom Timmy Pattersons up for grabs and your money back if you win an event. Get to play the whole season.

Blowin

How many people in it?

NEGATRON

About 30

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

OK mate, will do.

For now bought a leggy and two blocks of wax.

Talked to Finn who does LAGO podcast- they will have a commentary stream on You-tube channel tomoz.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

Typical Plumber sniffing out some more cash, haha

Smelt an opportunity

NEGATRON

Everyone isn’t quite there behind the scenes yet. But I live in hope that one day the WSL will be a ultra flexible machine capable of really zoning in on locations and swells.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

It looks like a really good wave when it is turned on.

We have all watched finals with like 4 waves ridden in 1 foot at some of the best places.

Something different is worth the venture. Even desert NW WA with the gnarly lefts can reel out to nowhere in the end..

All about the beginning, different judging criteria… No end Twirly Birds to save the day

deeks

Over Joe’s dead body

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

he is not lying

The things you “Own”

Own you

But what the fuck can you do

Get drunk and forget about it and RAG on RAGLAN

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

at least we should see heaps of waves ridden then.

they will be sucking up every last bitter drop from this lemon of a forey.

Blowin

I’ll be there in the trenches.

How good is Buy Now Pay Later- fuckign awesome.

Do you have it in the states?

“Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants, but debt is the money of slaves.”

Chief Hot stuff

Guess who invented interest on debt??

NEGATRON

Hamas?

Chief Hot stuff

Close!!

Blowin

Oh, who could it be?

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

dem Joos or Kiwi plumbers?

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

hahaah

All the other trades can wait

Kiwi Plumber…..

“Your Sewer line is blocked FFS. That is the price to fix it TODAY. Everyday the price will go up by 35% as the smell gets worse”

deeks

The merino class!

Rich Marx

The code of Hammurabi talks about interest in Mesopotamia about 5000 years ago. This is about 2500 years before the hill tribes in the southern Levant began to coalesce around Yahweh warship.

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

you just pay in instalments mate- no interest.

small fee.

I wouldn’t have any new boards or wetties without it.

Blowin

Ok. Never done it.

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

been saving for a gearbox for the last 2 years and still managed to keep the quiv and wetties current.

v. grateful.

Aussie invention btw.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

It works well, if you are sensible and use it wisely.

I guess the model gets propped up by those whose are not sensible.

I would never use it on Technology again, as when it came time to cough up, you were paying FULL PRICE for 5 year old tech, which felt stupid, when there was so much better options now.

But it would be no different than just buying it outright at the time.

Like I said, It is a net to catch non sensible cunts.

It was basically just a GE Credit card with 30% Interest….

Blowin

The gearbox?

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

Subie transmission.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

I remember all the “5 years interest free” stuff 30 years ago at all the big name shops.

All they needed was a few paychecks, a signature and spend away. Small fee account fee too of course.

Ohh yess spend away I did. It was fukn awesome…

Fine is you pay it back in time, then it becomes just a credit card with almost 30% PA interest on unpaid debt.

And your shit is now 5 years old and not cool anymore.

Fine if you are sensible and can swim through the net of compounding debt for a fuckn TV or Surround sound system… Hahah

The net catches many and turned their $2000 debts INTO MOUNTAINS

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

yeah, thats the old 50 months interest free from Harvey Norman scam that Sally Fitz is spruiking.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

It works fine if you have an income, and don’t have the savings for necessities like a new fridge, oven or 98″ OLED TV and PS5 PRO….

It is a net that catches the poor as Blowin hinted.

The rest swim through the mesh, the poorest get trapped forever….

Blowin

Man, I’ve only recently been learning how the ultra wealthy use debt to preserve their Principle.

File it under the shit they should’ve taught you in school but never will.

I am a Crayfish Popsicle

All I have even been told is you need is more debt to continue to prosper, so you can continue to buy even more debt, and buy bigger and better.

Debt is like a tree, from the trunk up, It can spread, until one diseased “branch” of debt, borrowed upon debt, borrrowed upon even earlier debt, kills the whole fuckn tree.

I am SO FUCKING LUCKY I can live Debt free and have never been happier.

But that is also a TOTAL FUCKN LIE!!!!!!

In costs each year, it COSTS a FORTUNE to just EXIST without even flinching

Rates, Water/Sewerage, Home Insurance, Car Rego and Insurance, Internet access and Smartphone, Gas, Electricity, Fuel, etc…

deeks

I love Sal more than Barney does.

longtomssecondcuztwiceremoved

probably get the shed on Afterpay.

deeks

or in Barney’s case… a barn.

BograilCutback

Pretty sure half of mates there wouldn’t have clothing without it.

Happy Camper

was watching a bit of the warm-ups today….top turn, cutback, top turn, cutback x 10, and thought the only thing that will save this event is a large swell. cuz, dang it looks very boring. every surfer looks the same with the exception of Toledo and Italo.
