| 223017 | 11440 | Molded, Reverse Engineered, Handshaped by One Only...WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE TO YOU? | 40 | Bruce Fowler | Oct 11, 2021 | 2021-10-11T13:14:08-0400 | miscreant said: Dysphemism aside, I've got nothing to get out. Rather, I'm just scratching my head , trying to figure out how the content on this thread helps our community. I mean... who cares what one thinks regarding what one finds as acceptable? The blathering is remotely entertaining though. Click to expand... YOU hold the remote. YOU don't have to participate. It's social media, a forum where people can remain anonymous for their own reasons whether it be for peace of mind, a sense of security, or to be more outrageous than they would ever dare to be otherwise. You have a developed vocabulary that some people might guess what a word you use might be from its base, like dys.... as in dysfunctional, etc. .......or that might be lazy or not care and read past it. It's a personal choice. You're scratching your head trying to figure out how this thread helps our community....?? I could say that about multitudes of other threads here and elsewhere. What is wrong with airing subjects out that some people 'never knew this or that'? It's not toxic, it's not negative, it's just someone's opinion airing something out that might promote someone's understanding of how their surfboard might come into being. Which way it originated, how it can be manufactured, how they used to be made with a lot of romanticism attached to 60's labels that people's heartstrings still get pulled due to fond memories of innocent youth & days gone by. There are quite a few people that belong to Jamz that are willing to pay a premium for a new old board with a label that sparks moments of the past. Whether you think it is 'good' or 'bad' is entirely up to you. I'm just educating a reader as to how it is being done, where there might be some questionable practices, or if it is just to be considered the new norm like stealing mail out of mailboxes to get ahead becuz times are hard? That last one used to be a Federal Crime, now those folks don't even spend a day in jail. Welcome to the new world. |
