Good looking rooster right there To be honest that was the Vanders car went walk about and it was my 3rd surf for the day hence board drag


Ah yes, a very disapointing day that turned out to be.

and to be fair Towball this photo was before the gym work paid off giving Mac the guns he has now where he carries all 3 of our boards under his arm for us to the waters edge.

Macahardarse that is a blatant Pimp my son & for this you have been referred directly to the Froth review committee - you can accept an early guilty plea of 1 x 6pack of full strength (you do know the caper none of that Capybaru Piss in here thankyou very much) BEER

Section 1 , Paragraph d ...... "Full on McTavish whore , suspected sluutt , blatant unashamed Pimp , again ......"

Appeals process ends in ....... 4 seconds


Suspected sluut....I think its pretty well known by now bro!!

Got it back 4 days later, reversed parked in a nursing home car park. Not a scratch on it but a lot of gear missing.

I was sitting sipping coffee and watching the surf with a besty this arvo and for reasons I can't recall, he broaches the subject of hipsters, I think there was one in the water. We start to ponder the vexing question of " what is the collective noun for a group of hipsters?". After a very short think and the mention of a few we know, (my favourite is, a SMACK of jellyfish) we concluded that there was probably no collective noun for hipster.

His phone then rang, it was his dancing instructor, (she's not really his dancing instructor, more a buddy of a particular genre, it's just that saying " are you going for a dancing lesson?" is far more appropriate in polite conversation when discussing their dalliance in a public place).

This phone call gave me the couple of minutes I needed to come up with an appropriate collective noun and since the most obvious thing about them is their luxuriant beards, and these are invariably filled with dried up weet-bix or Cheerios, remnant milk and bodily secretions, not necessarily their own. Along with this endless and plentiful food supply there will be a vast array of bacteria and micro flora enjoying a bountiful harvest, and that's when my eureka moment came to me!!!!!!

An INFESTATION of hipsters .... Ta da

Prior to me claiming a victory I thought I had better do some quick and dirty research so out comes the old dog and bone and I'm onto google like a shot. You can't imagine my disappointment when one of the first sites that turns up is that doyen of academia, the Urban Dictionary stating that the collective noun is, A SMUG of hipsters,

www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Smug+of+hipsters

I was gutted.



Just then my friend hung up the phone after arranging his next dancing lesson, nudge nudge, wink wink, and I told him how I had invented my own collective noun while he was on the phone, INFESTATION. He thought it was a good one, then I explained how I also looked it up and found that one had already been invented, SMUG.

I went home to lick my my lexiconic (sic) wounds but once there, I had one more browse on the big machine and found another site where a plethora of collective nouns for Hipsters can be found.

all-sorts.org/nouns/hipsters

Most of them are far more appropriate than mine, but at lest I don't feel so bad now.

I particularly like, A Latte, A Wank & A Knob

All of which have their own style. All of which add "to the rich tapestry of life"

Using the word "girls" as a pejorative is sexist and unacceptable. You are better than that Roy.
