I don't know how I've gone this long without ever seeing a picture, video, or even reading pronouns in conjunction with his name in an article. But it was a mild surprise <_<

You mean the pro surfer who is regarded as possibly the best surfer ever? Or is there some more modern Kelly Slater Im unaware of? Because from like day 1 it was hard not to know he was a dude.

It's not hard to believe the best surfer ever could be a woman if you've only heard about their accomplishments. And it's a sport just under the radar enough where they aren't gonna be all over your TV necessarily.

Kelly Slater sounds what AC Slater would name his daughter in a bad spinoff.

Bosses are immune to the eat command so it won't be possible to end the final boss fight of the game by eating it.

I guess its just strange to me because from before I ever saw him on tv I heard him referred to as he is the best surfer in the world. Id be more apt to believe that you hadnt heard of him rather than you know who he is but havent ever heard anyone say he. And its not like hes only been around a short time. The guy has been pretty known since 1990.

I just honestly thought there might be a different Kelly Slater they were talking about. There are a ton of people talked about on this site all the time I have no clue who they are. Especially when it comes to modern singers, or anything to do with YouTube/streaming. Im honestly shocked someone could go the last 34 years knowing someone of that magnitude and had never once seen a context that pointed towards him being a guy. Thats crazy.

In no way am I saying a woman couldnt be the best.

There was a pretty good boxer about 15 to 20 years ago named Kelly Pavlik who was quite good. Like Middleweight champion of the world good. Ive known other sports stars named Kelly. Knew a guy in the military named Kelly. Grew up with one. To me it was just one of those names that fit both girls and guys I knew. Kinda like Chris. It just always fit both.
