08' Platty's

I think I remember that I did the original Platty's in March of this same year, but alas, the whole damn thing is lost to the world of 101001010101's and such. Time magazine just did their lists issue, and it's close enough to being the end of the year, seeing as how of this writing it is the fifteenth of December, yet this is to post days later. Anyways, here is the time for me to poke fun at my friends, actually praise them, note things that actually are important, or just make shit up. Nonetheless, here are the 2008 Platty Awards:

  14. damn, Munzy nominating himself for 3 awards? c'mon dog, a little modesty never hurt a soul....

    ReplyDelete
  15. Slow as a Turtle award goes to Dom.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I didn't just nominate myself for 3 awards, but I gave myself three awards, though I don't think the prestige of having broken up with my girlfriend (award 1), still being friends with my ex (award 2), and the fact that I'm going to school (award 3) take much away from my modesty. Justsayyin'.

  24. Why Oakdale??? The Bowl corner is a shame to all bowl corners!
    Ledges are everywhere, that cant be why you like it!???
    Maybe its because the Edina Park is way to Gnarly for ya! Nothing even comes close to the Edina Grindline park, Are you crazy!???
    Look it up! You must not know about it.

  26. MARK ASS BUSTER OF THE YEAR! - MARK MULLER

    Y? = For Making skateboarding a CRIME!!

    ReplyDelete
  27. HPJ, the Edina park sucks ass. I'm sure you rule the place with the 3 variations of frontside slashers that you can muster up. Oakdale is liked because you can actually do some tricks and skate something other than some obvious over tight tranny.

  28. sherman is still better than whoever is trying to hate on his style. I love that people try to hate on someone that will always be a better skateboarder than them.
    And as for the 3rd lair hate... make sure you know who you hate. Some of us are just trying to keep a job.
