"Salt Life" and other such bullshit stickers and mantras
    #25547182 -

I keep seeing cars with these gnarly looking Salt Life stickers on them. Thought maybe it was a band or something, no, just a "lifestyle". Id like to know who the sheep are who buy into these stupid fucking stickers... Same for the stick figure families and all the other bullshit people put on their car.

Id like to send all these people to space and forget about them, free up traffic a bit. Maybe I'm just a cynical asshole? Probably.

Sheep follow other sheep:



I don't see the point on picking on them or being annoyed at them for that.

They just chose the easy path is all.


--------------------
Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

For most of the normies out there, an operating system is just a bootloader for Google Chrome.

And I don't know what the mantis is praying for
But he's probably just thanking the Lord
That he don't live in a home
And he don't got a phone
And he don't sit around all angry and bored

@shop right on

@citizen I think my biggest problem with it is the absolute lack of tangible value or artistry behind it. If it was a band or a show or something sure... But nah Its literally just something for people to subscribe to. Vapid bullshit.

The Salt Life motto was given to true watermen of Hawaii a long time ago.
Guys that could tackle the most dangerous conditions in the ocean.

But it became a trendy thing, and anyone that has ever stepped foot on a surfboard once or has a boat now has a Salt Life sticker.

It's bullshit.

But as far as the marketing aspect of what they did, I got nothing but respect. Free market at its best. Exploit the sheep to fullest!

Ever since they turned the OG Ron Jon into a tourist attraction 15 years ago and opened a Ron Jon at the world's biggest outlet mall in Sawgrass, FL, it has become an overpriced joke.

Fuck Ron Jon's current operations manager.

Yeah the guys behind it are marketing geniuses. Just like the people behind LRG and Obey etc.

I don't have any problem with surfers or anything but I have a feeling that for the vast majority of people rocking that sticker the only wave they're surfing is the shit wave.

Salt Life originated in Florida, same with that trash 'surf shop'. Coincidence?

I have never heard of salt life connected to Hawaiian watermen and my nephew is named Keaulana. And links you can connect me to?

Interesting piece of history there.

Salt life sounds dumb anyway. Capitalizing on something so silly.
