Hooplah, I did this once.
lol, idiot.
Betcha only did it ONCE!
Um…..I’m sorry, what the HELL does this have to do with politics?
Lol news and lol politics. Says so at the top.
Um…..I’m sorry, what the HELL does this have to do with news?
You don’t think surfing next to lava flow constitutes news? I find that a hell of a lot more newsworthy than all the celebrity updates I’m forced to endure.
Don’t really see how that is relevant to the life of anybody. Perhaps morning newsworthy?
um, if you only want to see stuff thats relevant to peoples lives, what on earth are you doing on this site?
Um, if you really want comment to anyone that might give a shit, try commenting on a LOL made in the last YEAR.
A freaking men jane, I would by you italian gelati ice cream (i know a good place) for that comment.
Make that 13% that we agree on Jane.
Damn, confuzzled, why are you so thick. It is clear that the policies of the Bush administration have caused a mountain to erupt, causing lava to flow into the ocean and further exacerbate global climate change cooling alteration or whatever it is they are calling it now.
Haha
No, no, no, Steve, ya missed the point! This is on the big Island of Hawaii, where volcanoes are creating new land, just like Bush wanted to create a new land in Iraq. The lava represents the smoldering anger of the Sunni minority encroaching on the vast sea of Shi’a complacency. The guy on the board represents our troops, who are in danger of being smashed between the two. And the Kurds are represented by, I don’t know, the steam in the upper left corner of the picture. Duh.
Touche. Now come on confuggled, why couldn’t you see that?
Very, very nice.
Seth, I’m so glad you explained that! I guess I am pretty dense. I need to read more…uh…stuff.
Is this the thing that Pierce Brossnan was talking about on the Daily Show last night? Surfboard/paddle? Anyway, I do not get this joke at all. It does not really make sense.
Obviously, you have never said “Hey, watch this.” What a boring life you must have.
You might be a redneck if…
Enviro-boy is about to get in touch with nature.
Yes, but if he gets hurt, he will sue.
The boiling water burned his feet and peeled the skin away up his legs… Haven’t heard anything about a suite yet, but I’ll keep my ears peeled so that in case your cynicism is correct we can all gather around to kiss your feet and tell you how brilliant you are. Until then, please get over yourself.
Wow. Well I thought ema’s comment was funny.
Yeah, way to overreact. Calm down, there are better things to freak out about on here.
Ema’s comment IS funny, I think. Sad, but funny.
BTW, GomerP, do you know that “suit,” as in “lawsuit,” is spelled without the “e” you typed? “Suite” means a group of something, like a group of rooms, or a group of furniture pieces, or a type of musical composition. Many Americans pronounce “suite” like “suit,” but I’ve always preferred to pronounce it like “sweet.” It seems that Wiktionary prefers to pronounce “suite” like “sweet,” too, bless them.
What really happened to Eddie Aikau.
(any surfers in the house? any Hawaiians?)
I think you’re mistaking bravado for bravery here Seth… I’m not Hawaiian or a surfer, but I’ve known enough Watermen to say you shouldn’t be knockin’ a cultural hero
No way, not knockin’ Eddie! I’m saying no mere surf could ever have taken him. Must have been lava.

For those who don’t know, Eddie Aikau was a famed waterman from Hawaii who would rescue people from surf no one else dared enter. He went on the Polynesian Voyaging Society recreation of the voyage between Hawaii and Polynesia. The ship developed a leak and got in trouble in some VERY big surf 12 miles off of Molokai. Eddie, being the hero he was, jumped on a surfboard and paddled off to get help. The rest of the crew was rescued by the coast guard, but no one ever found Eddie.
lol, ok. I see what you mean now. Cause you know… Eddie would go.
Who’s holding his beer?
And he *almost* made the cut for failblog…
(His board began to melt in the 200 degree water, and he suffered leg burns, but was “totally stoked” and would do it again)
You’re still totally correct on the “almost making failblog cut,” but I’d just like to point out that the wax on his board began to melt, not his actual board, there’s a difference. It’s like the difference between saying your tennis racket broke in two or some of the grip tape fell off.
Maaannnn, that’s some of the finest stupidity I’ve seen in a long time! Paddleboarding to where lava is entering the ocean. One shift of the wind and those fumes would knock his ass straight out. Pele must have been in a good mood that day not to kill him!
And yes kids, this is news. It’s not every day a lava flow makes it to the ocean in such spectacular fashion.
Failblog, heck. This guy is headed for a Darwin Award.
