"Serving Dane some Cody Davis catfish karma felt amazing, by the way."

Super normal thing to say in your supposedly serious and not self-serving investigatory article, man. This guy is palpably giddy at the prospect of being "the guy who breaks the story" and getting revenge on an industry that he feels he was wrongly shunned by.

He lists his preferred pronouns on Insta as I/Me; is any of this really a surprise?

@Sizzla ’s pronouns are I & I

[Crust]

The manipulative and cruel dynamic Dane set in those messages is another layer of vile in that already disgusting conversation.

Given how abhorrent these messages are, Dane would've needed an unbelievably strong statement to somehow have any chance at all at saving his rep. That is how his statement intention seems to come across - self-serving and wanting to save his himself.

In his vague statement it appears he is only interested in himself and his supposed commitment to growth and integrity - yet it does not include a real apology or acknowledgement of who he affected and how he could make amends.

Then, Jamie's post saying people should focus on who people are and not who they were...seemingly echoing Dane's statement sentiments. Imagine having been affected by Dane and reading that? Once again, the message appears to be aimed at saving Dane's reputation rather than an attempt at repair to those affected.

[Massivebellend]

I mean his reputation is in the gutter, least we can all sleep easy knowing this guy will never make money from skating again and will have a tough life from here on out considering his skating has already been and will rapidly continue to fizzle out

[ghost of barry white]

Can almost guarantee Dane will still be on all the Zero seshes, even if he’s no longer on the team.

broadly speaking I can understand not wanting to fire a long-time employee just because someone accuses someone of something.  I feel like that's what SLAP wants in the instance of every single accusation (if its people they don't like).

[close]

Yeah exctly like in the Shane O Neill thread. Such an astute observation of you thank god there are people like you who don't let their judgement be clouded by the way they'd like things to be. Imbecile.

This wasnt the dunk you thought it was.

I appreciate b.r.i.n.k aka bronk helping give victims a voice and opportunity to speak out and shed light on industry bad actors, and predators.  Kudos to him and the overall result is overwhelming positive. 

That being said I cant help but feel he is somehow making this about himself and has somehow managed to make it seem rather self serving and not entrirely altruistic. Thats purely an ad hominem attack i guess, and not really fair given what hes doing but it just has that vibe its giving when he presents stuff

Journalism requires impartiality and objectivity and have a higher standard for sourcing before you can press publish.

yeah from a journalistic standpoint this isn't great work. It's good to get it out there, but if he had a halfway decent editor, this could have ended up being a lot better and more useful

He was on Zero, not like he was making money to begin with. His career was fading anyway, time to move tf on.

Don’t mean to sound like I’m ready to cancel just anyone but is there more scumbaggery on Zero than we know? We have 3 of their top names outted as a pedo, a beater, and an enabler/sexual harasser. Makes you wonder who all knew and who also had skeletons they’re hiding.

Or someone to tell him what “testimony” means.   

Unless the victim said it under oath, he does not have testimony from anyone about Neckface.   Doesn’t mean it’s not true, it’s just sloppy and opens him up to being sued for libel

[Noble Experiment]

Imagine if JT actually prohibited him from being included on the sessions after this.
“Sorry, but after this we can’t have you on the sessions anymore, but I’ll see ya when I get home! Don’t forget it’s your turn to cook tonight! Can’t wait to try that Hamburger Helper recipe you were talking about!”

Wull yeah. There are probably around ten pages in the Cole/Christine thread that start with him posting an unsolicited, unrelated biography of his younger self that he followed up with accusing everyone else of drifting off topic by asking him to stop being a navel-gazing, self-absorbed tool. There's no rule that I'm aware of that says your local self-serving dingus can't also do good things. All that aside, the reported threats against him and his family are dispicable and condemnable.

This reply had nothing at all to do with my comment

[TwisT]

I’ll give Brænk credit where it’s due for this info. It takes an odd duck to catch a pedo sometimes I suppose.

The Neckface revelation is spicy but I’m not surprised by any of these things anymore. Disappointing people everywhere, no hobbies or interests are spared.

Neckface accusation is wild. Didn’t expect that nugget. I’m honestly not surprised thrasher has skeletons being a decades old skateboard magazine ran by man children and substance issues mag (that’s not even an insult to anyone, that’s just a fact)

I'm not 100% on it but it definitely sounded more sinister than that, like she had run away from home (which is where I might be getting the minor idea from) and they took her on tour and dropped her somewhere in the middle of nowhere. If not pedo then at least misogyny to the max.

[Newphone]

I’m confused about the Dane and Jamie being roommates thing.  Isn’t Jamie married?

I honneslty don’t follow the goings on at zero very closely but I was pretty sure he’s been married forever.

Probably coulda hooked up with Kat Von D. She invited him over and everything, right? Nah yeah, just fire some winky emojis at a 35kg girl in another country trying to kickflip up her driveway on a board from justice, i reckon.

The Hurricane Helen stories make it sound like they were both underage, but who knows. It resurfaced on Slap a couple  years back.

Hoooly shit. I only knew the interview, not the Slap thread. Five posts in that thread is already fucking monstrous. I don't really understand how we are laughing this off in nostalgia but going all pitchfork on Jamie and Burman. Please explain how this Hurricane Helen thread makes you wish Kelch still played on Slap? His first post makes me wanna punch him to a pulp.
