HONEYTON - In the wake of an epidemic that's spread across the online surfing community, the grassroots organization Friends of Swell Info (FOSI) have banded together in an effort to unite surfers across the Internet and deescalate their aggro tendencies during summer flatness. The festival will feature live music by various commercial hip-hop artists and seminars from some of the online surf community's premier personalities.

The goal of Waves Not Graves is to raise public awareness about the dangers of holding in surf rage and not finding proper outlets for its release. The summer (or "verano" as it's called in gnarly destinations) and its typically non-surfable conditions have been known to elicit depressive symptoms in otherwise stoked surfers and can cause them to act out with threats of violence, as recently exhibited by rogues such as rcarter and waterbaby. Signs of possible surf rage are verbal outbursts such as "Get off my peak!" and "Meet me at my break!", as well as name-calling like "douche" and "beta".

The Surfrider Foundation has been rumored to be named an event sponsor, however, an unnamed source within the organization claims that surfing the Internet lies outside their mission of protecting oceans, waves, and beaches. FOSI expects their inaugural event to cleanse the shores and waters of rant and rage.

If Surfrider comes through with the desired sponsorship, we'll all be getting the whole nine.

 

Surfing the Net for your latest and greatest YouTube conspiracy thread/film clips doesn't count as charging brah. Get those public speaking skills finely tuned Starchy, our SI buoys are expecting big things!!

 

Are you really an ornithology scholar? Got to see if we can get you on the list. If you can change it to sniping seagulls you may have a chance. If not, would you be interested in setting up a booth at the exhibit expo?

 

Guns as in big waves boards? If that's firearms then no wayz brah!! Gun control! Not fun control!!!
That would defeat the purpose of this groundbreaking event as it signifies an intervention in the form of tough love towards rcarter for his threats to me yesterday followed by him having bad thoughts of self-harm out of guilt. The only guns acceptable at this Surf-a-palooza are Gerry Lopez Lightning Bolt boards. That and the smokes who walk on the beach and the buoys say "Brah, look at the guns on that Betty!!!"
