Making Mama Proud
So I’m guilty of not always listening to my mom. I think we’ve all been there. It’s like, yeah, you know, you love your mom but fuck, ALL RIGHT ALREADY! I mean, is it just me or do parents, especially moms, always repeat themselves and tell you the same things over and over again? I don’t mean to say they nag but…ha ha…you know what I mean. Sometimes you just don’t want to hear it even though you know, in the end, it’s probably for your own good.
But it all comes from good intentions, I guess. I mean, I know that now. I didn’t realize a lot of that back in the day when I was younger, and I’m still learning to take advice or at least have a little more patience in taking the time to listen or hear what people have to say.
And I think my mom’s a pretty smart cookie. She’s fucking funny, honest, sassy and ain’t afraid to tell it like it is. Whether it’s telling me off or telling off my dad or my brother Nathan, the chick doesn’t mess around. And I don’t mean just telling us off in a negative way. I mean, she always has valid thoughts and opinions, words of wisdom , and the most random facts all stored in her mental file. So I was thinking, you know what? Many of you write and ask for advice - some of you guys write serious stuff and a lot of you write stupid bullshit stuff. All in good fun, I know. But my point is, you guys want to banter and you want to hear what’s up and seem to want concrete answers on certain things, so who better to throw in their two cents in regards to your questions than my mom, Dibi Fletcher?
And let’s be honest here…do you really want to get advice from me? Fuck, I just might make your problem even worse.
So, fuckers, here it is. The “Dear Christian” section on here will now be “She is Dibi: Hear Her Roar” from now on. And we’re serious. Ask her anything. You won’t get a more brutally - yet humorous - straight forward answer the way you would from Dib. Don’t be shy. If you leave skid marks on your underwear and want to know what kind of laundry detergent to use, ask her. If you’re in financial despair and feel suicidial, ask her how to get out of that rut. Ask her about anything and everything. She may not have the best answer but she’ll definitely give you an answer.
After all, she is Dibi. Hear her roar.
The first installment, down below.

Hey Dibi,
It burns when I pee and I think she lied about her age. What do I do?
- TJ Harris
For the present: use antibotics. For the future: get her ID, use a rubber, and a brief reread of sex education might be in order.

Hey Dibi,
I plan to run my pop-out board through a wood chipper to support our local shapers along the Gulf Coast. Am I doing the right thing? Or should I keep riding it?
- John Douglas
RIDE IT, dude, and if you got the cash order a custom board as well!

Hey Dibi,
Who is cooler? Jesus or Buddha?
- Nolan Farrel
I think they both wore Astrodeck sandals, so it would be a toss up!

Hey Dibi,
I hate my boyfriend and want to get rid of him. Also, I think he is gay. Help!
- Lisa Humphreys
Ah, fashion tips and brushed teeth are always a good thing, don’t you think? And, in the mean time, why not get a mutt to screw? Problem solved.

Hey Dibi,
I lost my VHS copy of “Tweak Freaks” and “Savage Beast”. Where can I find another?
- Alex Orrell
We’re going to start putting video sections on the Christian Fletcher website in the future, so stay tuned.

Hey Dibi,
I’m starving. What should I eat?
- Hiroshi Nagao
Forget burgers. And I would also forego the sushi and go straight for the wasabi!

Hey Dibi,
I like the idea of a “Dear Christian”! So you mean if I send you some questions, you will answer me 100% honestly? Yes!
- Julie Buteyn
As is always the case, we’ll always be 100% humourously honest with you guys.

Hey Dibi,
Tell me, should I surf in this shitty water in Pismo?
- Rodney Roller
Herb just got sick surfing Lowers after the epic rain we had here, so I’d wait 72 hours. Or you can always go surfing anyways and then end up sick in bed.

Hey Dibi,
Why does that incredibly fat man continue to eat at McDonalds? What the fuck man!!!
- Scott Damian Smith
Well, it’s the same thing whether it’s that last snort or that last run; addiction comes in all shapes, sizes, and distortions.

Hey Dibi,
I just found out that my mom’s cancer is back and I was wondering if you had any ideas on what I could do out here on the east coast to make her smile. Thanks.
- Will
Show her the pic of Christian at the top of this post, and tell her that this is my son and that should get a smile out of her because I’m sure she would be happy in knowing she didn’t have to deal with someone like that!

Hey Dibi,
I need some advice. Broke up with my fiance ’cause of her possesive and over jealous attitude. Miss her sometimes but I definitely won’t go back. I’ve dropped my skateboard and surfboard because of her and have become a dull and condescending dick. Is there a way of gettin’ back to what I was? I had started skateboarding again, at least that shows some improvement in my character, what do you say? Anyways thanks for this cheap PSYCHOanalysis session, way better than the real ones! Thanks.
- Mariano Varela
Like I tell my own sons, Christian and Nathan, and like I would tell a daughter if I had one…don’t get involved with anyone. Just RENT!!!
