OG boardwalk 2022.   Blogfinger photo.

Scene:   Conversation with OG neighbor who just retired from a job where she works nights.

Me:  Have you been to the beach?

She: You know for the last 20 years I never saw daylight. But yes, I went to the Ocean Grove beach.

Me:  What did you think?

She:  I couldn’t believe what I saw:  all those naked butts.!    I was amazed.

Me. Does it bother you?

She:  Yes.  I would never wear a suit like that. I plan to go to the Avon Beach where the bathing suits are more conservative.

Addendum:  Noah, our 5 year old grandson, volunteered that he saw “bottoms”  at the beach.

So that’s the norm now.  It’s still shocking, as much as most folks try to believe that it is normal.  Will  the CMA beach regulators look the other way or add something specific to their many rules and regs?  When will Michael Badger say something to the Coaster? And who will head the beach butt patrol?  And where will the butt babes attach their beach badges?
