What kind of heterosexual middle aged male signs his emails xo?
The main character of our blog, of course! Surf shop owner by day, wine-o by night: Bossman.
I’d love to see him stand up in a courtroom and say.. “See! i knew this blog was about me all along! Xo is MY trademark signature!”. Haha, well..okay then.
To give our followers an update:
The owner of a surf shop has since seen the site and demanded it be taken down, naming all sorts of absurd yet serious threats. The genius even wrote them down and emailed them to several of his potential suspect bloggers. He claims that what’s written on this site is about him, and that it is false. What’s most amusing is..well that whole sentence is pretty funny. He actually read this blog and thought..”hey, that’s about me!”
Ouch.

So maybe bossman spreads rumors about people, and maybe he lies constantly to friends, family and co-workers. But I have to say, there’s truly nothing more amusing and pathetic than seeing a pudgy guy with a lisp bad mouth other people. It’s almost as bad as him making constant sexual remarks about women he’ll never have a chance with.
I suppose it’s true when they say that insecure people have to compensate for there shortcomings by pointing out or fabricating shortcomings in others.
Does your boss require a to-go cup for his daily shop beer binges? Alright, so maybe he doesn’t actually bring a styrofoam cup..who are we kidding, it’s much easier to just grab the bottle and hit the streets!
Ok, listen, to his credit-he did always make us wait until after 5pm before he sent us on beer runs for the shop. After all, alcoholics drink before 5pm…grumpy old men just drink every single day at 5:01.
To his not so credit-his favorite line before packing up and heading home for the night was, “this one’s for the ditch”. It does seem a little bad for business though when you think about it. If you drink and drive home that much, you’re bound to accidentally run over a local or even a customer. Don’t worry too much, Virginia Beach natives-I’m sure he’ll be happy to throw you a discount or even a free shop t-shirt if he swipes you off of the road. Everyone wins!

Kook is a term (most often used by aggro locals) to describe any surfers that:
- don’t live in awesomely shithole little coastal towns
- don’t work fantastically bullshit jobs and/or drive old beat-up vans/trucks/etc
- glorify the disaster that is their own surfing ability
- don’t follow the rules of the lineup
- show up in the lot with a frappuccino-excited about two-footers
However, the term kook has different meanings to a variety of people in the surf community. You don’t necessarily have to be an asshole to enjoy this fun, degrading term.
ex: “That guy has a surf-rack on a land-rover, what a kook!”
