I see it's still awesome in here.


+1

The better the boat the more props the boat doucher gets from the other boat douchers when they slag on their boats (or owners, or boat builders, designers, sailmakers, or pros) at the bar. Too bad they typically don't know jack fucking squat about what they are talking about. Basically, if these guys didn't have the right friends and a good weed connection, their skill set would qualify them for a job humping furniture for College Movers, or Two Guys and a Truck.

So here we have "Didja get yer loose keel fixed?", followed by "they don't have a loose keel" and then "I'm just stating facts". Can't make this kind of kind bullshit up.

Like fucking Rick James "I didn't just grind my feet in Eddie Murphy's couch." "Yeah, I did grind my feet in Eddie Murphy's couch".

Cocaine's a helluva drug.

Then it comes right back here on SA as some kind of "inside dope".

It's dope alright. Product of dope, by dopes.

Believe it or not, Rick James used to live up the road from me.

Always run into him rootin' around for food at the local convenience store late at night.

Hungry guy.

Where does the SF Bay MC 38 live? I'd love to check it out in the flesh.

If you look closely at the crew on some of the boats pictured on the MC38 web site, you will see it was actually the Intergalactics, but in all modesty, there was no discussion of that.
