‘Surfers ignore warnings as 30cm wave surges hit Christchurch after Chile quake’
It begins with a ripple…who knows where this will lead? Socialist NZ cannot possibly survive in the face of this massive wave of civil disobedience. Is it the beginning of the Kiwi Spring?
Update!!
There are reports trickling in already that NOT ONE surfer was seen to be wearing a hi-viz vest, safety boots and hard hat. A Health and Safety NZ spokesperson says the area is still too dangerous to allow inspectors to verify these reports.

FOR LIBERTY
You can all now come down from your mountaintop sanctuaries, ditch the tinned beans, bottled water and rationing of toilet paper, The official status of the tsunami situation is now “unusual water conditions.”
The status is what?
Bollocks – I was too busy to get the memo
Not a chance I’m ditching my stash though – That Is Crazy Talk!!!
The now common greeting for MSHA and OSHA inspectors here is a click of the heels followed by “Achtung! Everyone vill verk safely or zhey vill be shot!Jawohl”

The comments are slapstick comedy gold!
Yeah…just oozing sympathy.
To be fair, 30 centimeters must seem awfully tall to a civil defense minion with only a button mushroom to dribble through.
Despite all the piss taking I think the fact of a warning was fine. Its what you do with the info that makes you a dick or not. I wouldn’t have gone, say, floundering after midnight.
I have no problem with the warning, because it’s a case of damned if they do and damned if they don’t.
What pisses me off is the degree of hysteria in the media.
An earlier generation of libs would have backed off in the face of all this ridicule KG. I am certain it now falls on the hubris deafened ears of its targets.
Need I remind anyone of the ages-old remedy of what it takes to get the attention of a jackass?
Fine, the beach is now free of man-bitches and nincompoops.
Surf’s up boys, what? It’s only a yard or so, sheeit. Crack a tinny and fire up the barbie and wait for some proper waves.
