Fuck that shit. Why would you hand your board to a cop. I go out of my way to go the other way when one of those dudes come around.

I really enjoy the small comments you make at times.

Anchorman is a terrible movie.
Stepbrothers sucked too.

Will Ferrell is the worst.

I wish you could see the reaction I get when I tell people I tried watching Stepbrothers like one time and didn’t care for it. People get actually angry

[close]

You guys aren't alone, I tried watching both those movies and Old School and didn't like any of them. The only memorable scene in any of them is when Ferrell sang Por Ti Volare in Stepbrothers. I'm glad I missed out on the million other movies he's made. He actually seems better on TV - fond memories of Janet Reno's Dance Party.

Not going to lie, I think Old School had at least a few chuckleworthy parts, be it scenes or lines (still in bad taste, some radrad douchebag fantasy movie) and him as the villain in Zoolander was sort of jokes, but the entire franchise of shitty movies with him, Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, etc, they all sucks so bad. Never watched Stepbrothers, Wedding Crashers, or any of that cringe shit, I'd honestly rather sit and do nothing.

computerdate, you know how it is - people are dumb. But yeah, getting mad at somone for not liking a movie is extra special. Most movies just suck and lack substance.

You can still buy old spitfire's

People need to stop kidding themselves that AA’s recent footage is anything better than you would see in a local shop vid, yes we get it, his prevent this tragedy part was awesome, get over it.

[Jehoshaphat Augustus]

I need to stop kidding myself anything I've ever posted has been worth looking at. From my dumbass lists of dudes with best heelflips to talking shit about people who have made skateboarding awesome, I'm 100% one of the worst dudes on slap

Fixed

[matty_c]

There are plenty of things to like about Steve Berra:

Fakie 540s

Dude was on 101

Foundation part, pretty much any part before the end

We've all enjoyed watching berrics stuff that he put together

What's her name, the actress

Dude must have grown up skating in no where America where skating was hated, moved to Cali and made it, the skatemerican dream

Plenty of good photos over the years

I realize I'm not mentioning some things

5-0 in mosaic

Not what I meant, I meant that I didn't jump on the F4 bandwagon and claimed to have always loved spitfire.

Spitfires were a very popular wheel beforehand, and since the F4 improved the product it makes sense that even more people would get on board.

Liking spits before the F4 is not an unpopular opinion though...and technically not even an opinion lol.

isn't the hype mostly about the fits at this point?

I hope this isn't an unpopular opinion among this crowd, but skateboarding as a collective needs to stop making every cop who can do a kickflip go viral.

There was another one going around last night and I left a grumpy comment about how skating with a loaded gun on your belt is probably kinda dumb no matter how safe the holster is and people went nuts on me. Non skaters on Instagram love cops, apparently.

[Bata]

some cops are pretty damn hot not gonna lie

Early 2000’s spitfire wheels were shit. The ones with plastic cores were garbage, but the other wheels are rad.

Yeah I used to have this vhs video comp of cops getting hit by truck mirrors while writing tickets. Mostly in tunnels  Best film ever made.

[matty_c]

Heavy. I got this video of a building in India or something and it’s burning down and the workers are jumping and the music is it’s raining men


I crashed car wasted Bata and one of the cops that arrested me was beautiful
I hit her up but she wasn’t keen, I don’t really blame her haha

[Prison Wallet]

I thought the Beastie Boys doc sucked. And they were the soundtrack to my skatelife 85-95.

Totally. I’ve gotten into a few friendly arguments over my theory that you can draw a line from Nirvana in the early 90s to a lot of terrible bands that came after, like Nickelback. Not comparing talent, worth, or quality. Just simply saying that Nickelback probably never ends up on the radio if it weren’t for Nirvana.

Korn Theory. Without Korn there would be no Limp Bizkit. And without Limp Bizkit there would be no Puddle of Mudd. It's all downhill from here.

let’s not even get started on how much of a disappointment Dave Grohl turned out to be

[cucktard]

I thought the Beastie Boys doc sucked. And they were the soundtrack to my skatelife 85-95.

I’m a fan, but objectively they are not great musicians and the only flow they managed to make work was ‘Ch-Check it Out’, where they finally found an off-kilter cadence that tied up their amateurish rhyming with Jr High school humor, and faux-old school beats and made it work perfectly, and sound like something of their own.

Everything else has parts of good songs. Some have great beats ahead of their time (Paul’s Boutique and Check your head), some have good rhyming (but usually mitigated by nasally high voices) but mostly they sound second-rate at everything they did.

That amateurish approach was endearing, but not anything near the skill and quality that came from all other areas of rap.

you attached the wrong link

[pizzafliptofakie]

Nirvana rules and Nevermind was a huge deal for alternative music. I don't think linking all those shitty bands to them is very fair because you could do that for literally any past influential band at any point in history. Dave Grohl was a big DC hardcore guy but I'm not gonna blame Minor Threat for Foo Fighters lol.


But on that note, I think Dave Grohl kinda sucks.

hahaha, that's a pretty apt comparison.


His "nice guy" shtick always seemed insincere to me but this sorta solidified it for me.
