u seem like a cool normal person.ur my new hero for making the cut internationally. and ur right about the whole Damien hirst thing,i have no clue who that is,but theres plenty of old painters whos canvas is a bunch of lines and sells for 100 million.
Bro. I, nor any of us are even 1% responsible for invalidating anyone's claims. That's not how the world works. He needs to prove an extremely outrageous claim like this for it to even be considered. I guess you guys like charlatans and fairy tales. We just saw a list of the highest selling boards of all-time. 50-88k was the highest we saw on that list. Then 1.15mil. Alarms should go off in your heads. FLY A BANNER FOR ACTUALLY HAVING A BS METER IN YOUR HEAD
I admit that Mr Roy's wood surfin board is a work of art. However... If I had $1,150,000... Let's see... 1g of dro is $30, $20 if you gots the hookup... Nice local ho $20 to $50, dependin on the menu... Let's go hog wild and say $30 dro + $50 ho = $80 a day. $1,150,000 / $80 = 14,375 days. 14,375 days / 350 days per year (ya gotta rest SOME days) = 41 YEARS!!! So... a wood surfin board, or 41 years of frivolity? I dunno y'all...
Dilemma: When someone is asked to prove something, and that person's response is "prove that I did/didn't"... Is that "irony", or just "stupid"?
I could care less if he sold it or not. Although, never seen anything from the buyer so only person talking here is Roy.
Its mostly just tired. But if I had to choose between ironic or stupid, I'd go with stupid. A few pages ago someone posted for him to post his bank statement with proof of a $1 million deposit. I'm gonna go with stupid.
Maybe Mr Roy's board was bought by some uber rich teenager with daddy's Uranium Amex Card. It's a secret. And white fonts are fun. 41 years of Woo Hoo, or a wooden surfin board. Decisions, decisions...
This is a topic I do not care about. I am skeptical, but I also don't believe we will ever see proof.
And who, pray tell, compiles this list?? I am 100% sure it is NOT "all-inclusive". Even antique car dealers do not have a perfect list. So much for having a "BS METER" in your head.
Come on pauly, don't squirrel it away in your sock drawer. The interest from your savings acct will pay for pizza.
Brew is not necessarily a skeptic, but first and foremost and engineer, which means he has "the knack"...
Of course we won't see proof. There is none. The clearest BS indicator should be Roy's complete lack of acknowledgement of proof in any way. Yet, some lemmings here are fanboyish in their naive trust of such a fantastic hyperbole. Sorry, but an AS$tronomical, unprecedented claim like this needs SOME Shred of backup. Hey salty old dude that likes to play devil's advocate with everyone - of course I'm not entirely believing those 50-88k figures of other sales unless they at least begin with a supposed buyer that confirms the purchase. I was keeping this debate simple starting with the most ridiculous part by a mile. But bro, don't you realize that by bringing into question the 50-88k sales, you're questioning Roy's claim yourself by a multiple of 15-20x as large? FLY A BANNER FOR THE EXPOSITION OF GANDOLF THE SCAMMER C3dogg! How goes it my main meng? Things peeling at CGB? Hope you're well!
