Salty has a great point...and I can't speak for all of us, but I would like to address this. Personally, I could give two focks how silly someone wants to dress, what trends thay choose to follow, where they put their cock, or if they want to scissors with Chaz Bono. I don't care what gods they pray too, or what they like to listen too. Provided no direct/indirect harm is being done to another sentient being, I don't give half a shizzle how people live their lives... BUT, when they threaten to exploit what is sacred to me, and attract bigger herds of 'dumbfounded dipsh!ts' to our holy places, all for the sake of being COOL...then it's a problem... Coming soon to a line-up near you...
Hey moron, first of all, how's Annapolis today? Lovely place. Hey, did you ever know a Sean or a Latchkey? Salty, let me explain something to you. I was NOT talking aboot judging others based upon looks in a general sense. I was talking aboot being judged professionally from appearances. For example, if you got charged with five counts of Possession with Intent to Distribute and one count of Sexual Assualt Victim Under 13 would you use a lawyer, if you went for a consultation, who was unshaven, unkempt and dirty? Would you? You see what I was getting at now? And do NOT get involved when I'm talking to Spicoli. That wasn't for your eyes or any one else's. That was between me and Spicoli. "Spicoli and I" (very formal snooty tone) Oh, thanks George Tekai. And of course we judge others by their posts. Duh !! Our posts are the gateway to our souls and are very characters. Well, some people on here might be "characters" unlike themselves, but that's a whole or hole 'nother issue. You have already judged me by my posts. So, go practice what you preach nancy-boy. Insecurity issues? Hey white girl, I'm the only dude, as far as I know, who has given their life story on here. Yeah very insecure. Aboot what? Spicloi's facial hair? My facial hair? Seldom Seen's facial hair? Ok thanks, Salty. Something very fulfilling aboot being sassed by some dude who calls himself, "Salty."
Oh, some of youse guys need to get a little more creative with the SWELLINFO monikers.... We got a SALT and a SALTY We have 27.8 NJSURFER65689's or NJSURFER978 or Njsurf609 We have a CJSURF and a CDSURF... Come on.
There is so much butthurt and judgmental bs in this thread it’s ridiculous, not to mention all the homophobia. Having a beard, not having a beard, dressing like a hipster, being able to do pushups or change a tire does not make you gay. I’ve met guys whom are gay and probably rip harder than the majority of people on this site and you’d never know they’re gay after surfing with them all day or sharing a conversation. If you guys really have that much time on your hands to form this many opinions on people because of the way they look and instantly call them gay because their looks don’t meet your accepted requirements you need to find something better to do with your time and realize when you point the finger at someone else you’ve got three more pointed back at yourselves. If someone wants to rock a beard, let em do it if that makes them happy. A dude wants to be with another guy because that makes him happy, who are you to say otherwise? The whole “hipster” movement or whatever you want to call it is a trend and like all trends it will pass in time. In ten years everyone will think that generations style is stupid and annoying, that's just the progression of things. There will always be douchebags in the lineup, and there will always be douches who want to look the part of a “surfer” but when push comes to shove they won’t last out in the water when they find out how difficult surfing actually can be. And if they do stick and stay, put in the time, work and dedication showing respect to others in the water, then they’ve earned my respect REGARDLESS of what they look like, what color their skin is, or their sexual orientation. For as many claim surfing to be a highly spiritually activity, a lot of you guys seem to be lacking there and coming off as some pretty judgmental pretentious pr1cks. Yall motherfckers need to learn some humility for your fellow man. Rant over.
Seldom, Asshole is the one word not censored on here. Just doing my teaching thing. The more you know...
I think I am the same way. Probably b/c I don't give a rat's axx about what people think and therefore I don't catch the trends until the next day. Have you seen the E-trade commercial about the beard trend...that is how I found out there was a beard trend. And like someone else said...I shave just enough to get by at work or the occasional function...a couple of times a week. But who cares?
My beard rules. Tire change? phfffffffttt......my beard just replaced the valve cover gaskets on my maxima. Soon as it gets a little longer I'll have it get back to working on rebuilding the engine in 4runner #2. Push ups? My beard does my push-ups for me. No arms needed. And when I surf, my beard paddles AND pops me up, leaving my hands free to do other more important things, like drink beer or light up. My beard kills for food and for sport. Guns, knives, bows, spears, or even it's beard hands. Mary Lee is hanging around MD as she heard my beard may be in the CB area and high-tailed it out of there. But I have to be careful about leaving it alone with my wife. I like my beard, but I don't trust it. Or her when it's around. My beard hates selfies. And it attacks hipster beards on sight. Its the da hui of beards, and doesn't like any of them. My beard banged your Mom. All of your Moms. The beard must be obeyed...
big big big difference between a hipster beard and a I don't give a phuk beard.yea if u take care of ur beard,like comb it and shyt,then yea u are a hipster.i have a idgaf beard,because I don't have time to shave.regardless it always comes off every month or so then grows back.if u look in the mirror and shave with shaving cream,u are a phag.do it like a man,in the shower,with water lol.I miss hairs all the time.theres hairs on my neck longer than my mustache.i shave once in a blue moon when im bored and have some extra time.it takes me like 45 minutes just to buzz it off,then il hop in the shower and use a razor.clean face lasts like 4 hrs before shyt starts growing back. I also have long hair lol.not because im cool,but because I don't have time to go to a barber.some people have all the time in the world.i really hate my long hair too,nothing worse than working with motor oily hands and sludge,and u have a hair in ur mouth and have to touch ur face lol.or itch,or take it out ur eyes.it always makes things worse.if I had it my way id shave all my hair and look like a cancer patient.
The beard has become the padded bra of masculinity kinda hard to tell who's a softy and who can actually use a chainsaw
It took me 38 years to grow this thing and now you want me to get rid of it? I guess it just feels right on my face. I've had it for a good 6 yrs now and the longest it's been was about 5". I trim it occasionally, and each time get yelled at by my wife and daughter. I get plenty of compliments, I think chicks dig it. But this thread has me thinking maybe I need to get rid of it. Some doods on a surf pur****tin forum shan't be wrong.
Riley, we are always seeing eye to eye, dude, on the same level, picking up what each other are putting down, catching each others drifts, et cetera. We're not too different, you and I. Keep doing your thing, man. All ya'll better stop hating on Riley, he's the cats meow, the bees knees, the mutts nut, and so on.
