Weird belly button guy is apparently Marshe Rockett. I hadn't heard of him, actually.

 

TNA have put out a press release where they've gone all "use their real names and hint at what they've done before".

 

The Frenchies are apparently "following the career path of Bram and Eli Drake".

I just looked at a bit of paper I had on the floor (yes I'm a lazy bastard), and it's got Marsh Rockett against Lince Dorado for some TEW booking I was doing about a couple of years ago.

Yeah, I said exactly the same thing. It really did spoil the film for me, as it was really solid up until that point.

We watched the first Cloverfoeld a couple of days prior too as if never seen it and it may be an idea to do do in case it referred back to it. Needless to say that an hour and a bit I'll never get back. It's the first films fault that 'Found Footage' exists as a genre

Ever heard of The Blair Witch Project?

Not to mention the total lack of punctuation, and, whilst not strictly incorrect, the use of the phrase 'keep the good work up' 

The censoring thing did make me chuckle.  It was like, 'That was such a shitty *censored*' and, 'that was fucking *censored*'  I bet whoever was on the job is hiding in a cupboard hoping Vince doesn't find him.

Was Show holding his beer with his towel (semi) over it because he didn't want to be seen drinking, as that stuff's not allowed on TV, or just because his hands were sweaty?  If it was the former it was a bit stupid, as Stone Cold presented him the beer, and they kept mentioning the fact it was a beer.  If it was the latter; fair enough.

But yeah, as others have said. 'twas a good watch.

Seems like an awful lot of effort personally, what about FB was so bad for you?

I enjoy my "Sassy Socialist Memes" and the "Anime Communist Party" too much to stop using it, I get a lot of info from artists/bands etc from there too.

Same here.  There's stuff that bands put up that I would never have actively sought out that I ended up loving.  This bad boy by Frightened Rabbit and Manchester Orchestra (both of whom I love), that I would never have found out about otherwise..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMXyniloAlk&list=RDkMXyniloAlk.  And gigs that I would never have gone to if Facebook didn't let me know about it.

It can get annoying when you have to scroll down through 'inspirtational' pictures and the like, but it's worth it for the ability to stay in touch with things, be it stuff you're interested in, or friends you rarely see.  For example, I had a great chat with someone I went to school with, but wasn't really 'share your phone number friends' with, who moved to Japan.  That never would've happened if not for Facebook.

Probably would still do that with someone like Matt Cross. I think there's a reason why they picked Matt Cross over Austin Aries for that season. Because one is quiet and has a rep for being exactly what people think of when they think of small CZW type flyers. And the other is mouthy, can go and would stick up for himself because he'd happily walk away from the business. Matt Cross was perfect for the role they wanted in that sense. They picked a generic guy with a non-TNA or ROH indy rep. Matt Cross is far better as Son of Havoc than he is as Matt Cross/M-Dogg20. The beard, mask and fake voice adds to him.

I assume it was probably intentional, but every time I ever read his name in Powerslam or on EWR, it'd always remind me of this delightful beverage we used to drink down the park when we were 16...

 

 

So would you say current Hull City are TNA on Spike but they're in a late night slot rather than prime time?

Yeah. But we're not heading for Destination America. Yet!

 

I'm a Bolton Wanderers fan.  TNA right now is probably Bolton right now.

 

I'd say TNA are more of a Portsmouth.  Were in the UEFA Cup in 2009, with WWE being in the Champions League, now they're in League 2, whilst WWE are still in the Champions League.

Yeah, going from the Stone Cold podcast, and bit and bobs I've heard about him, I just presumed he turned up five minutes before his match, wrestled, and then fucked off back to his farm.

You take that back, Strowman's great at being big and having a beard.  What more do you want from a wrestler?  For him to actually be able to wrestle or have the slightest bit of charisma?

 

He's been doing that gimmick / had that look longer than McGregor has been in the mainstream though

 

Thanks. An actual answer to my question that doesn't consist of Snarky McKnobbleton making song & dance about it. 

 

I think this is my favourite ever use of the Something McSomething ermm, thing, ever.

Fuck's sake.

 

I don't know who he is - he's dressing & styling himself after the biggest star in MMA - someone who wrestling fans DO know. I just asked for some background on the photo - i.e. is that his gimmick? It's possible to answer that question without being a cunt, or implying I should know who he is because of reasons you never explained.

 

"you never fail to be shit about anything you don't know about."

Yes, I should be really good at stuff I don't know about. We all should really. Don't ask questions if you lack knowledge on something - just "be" good it instead. Great advice. So next time I don't know the answer to a wrestling-related question, instead of asking on a wrestling forum (which is just a fucking mental thing to do, obviously!), I'll just "be" good at knowing the answer, and it'll come to me. Thanks. Sound.

This reminds of when I've been watching quiz shows on TV or playing Trivial Pursuit or something, I won't know the answer, and someone will ask 'how do you not know that?!'  

Because I don't.  That's why.  I have quite a bit of knowledge, but that happens to be a gap in it.  Titface.

I still have a pic of Cantona as a tribute to Paris, as he is obviously the greatest Frenchman to have ever lived.

 

Plus, in another first, the hugely popular Beer Money tag team of James Storm and Bobby Roode return to the UK for the first time in five years.

I'm not sure TNA define "another first" in the same way I do.

 

Well, strictly speaking it is, because every other time they've returned has been after a year or two.  Though it is a bit like saying 'in another first, Terry Funk retires for the 78th time'.

I know he wasn't on one of the early Smackdown games as he'd buggered off for a bit.  Don't know which one though.

Did you hear that advert they did on Raw advertising the event in a shopping centre?

Yep, Malteaser. 

With one of my exes, I'm not sure I'm actually really over her, but she's married now, so I'm not going to do anything to fuck that up, as I'm genuinely glad she's happy.  

I'd just fancy having a chat with her, as I think she's the best friend I ever had.  But not having her number and having been blocked on social media (after I went a bit mental after the break up) I don't think that's going to happen.  Life eh? 

 

 

WARNING for all dog owners & Dogs carers. Read on....

With the snow and ice expected the roads may well be gritted, if you walk your dog on gritted roads/paths please make sure that their paws are washed either by walking them through a few puddles away from the gritted surfaces or by dipping their feet in fresh water once at home. Every year hundreds of pets throughout the country become seriously ill and in some cases die because of the rock salt and antifreeze being used during the cold snap. Dogs and cats walk through the substances left by gritters trying to clear roads and car drivers defrosting their windscreens and then licking them off their paws. Consuming rock salt can cause dehydration, liver failure and pancreatitis, while antifreeze contains the chemical ethylene glycol, which can be lethal when ingested.

HOLY SHIT, EATING ANTIFREEZE IS BAD FOR YOU!!!

A tramp once called me a cunt for 'taking a grand out of your account and not giving me any' when I probably had about a tenner to my name.  I didn't punch his nose through the back of his skull.  Do you reckon I should put that up on FB?  I mean, I must be the goodest of samaritans. 

'powdered sugar' 'potted plant poking out of her bag, some medicinal thing'

No wonder everyone was so happy.

And is it possible to make them both have the same prominence?  Because otherwise you're saying you like gays better than the French, or vice versa.

Being created for them by a guy who creates games.

Who'da thunk it?

 

Today I learned that if you need to siphon petrol out of a small car like a Suzuki Alto, you need much longer length of tubing than you'd expect.

 

I also learned that petrol burns your lips, and that if your tube isn't all the way in (fnar), the fumes are every bit as unpleasant as the liquid.

 

So, to sum up:

Get someone else to do it.

I spent Christmas with someone who had to do Diesel and he spent the morning looking very ill then proceeded to be sick loudly for 20 mins.

 

That's a very inappropriate response.  Nash is one sexy fucker.

The Eric Andre Show.

 

Here's a link to a random episode, there's a bunch free to view on AdultSwim...

It's as weird as fuck and most of you will probably hate it, but it has some amazingly funny moments. If you liked Space Ghost, it's like a more offensive, live-action version. I watched about 6 in a row (they are only short) and I felt my brain melting a bit.

That was bloody great.  I think.  Maybe.  Yes, it was.

Jack Evans stepped in and battered the Juice.

We are talking this Jack Evans yeah?  If so, how humiliating for Juvi.  I'm sure my Gran could have him.

When I used to wrestle with my mates and my brother, I always used to be Benoit.  I am not entirely sure what that says about me.  

I did once take the mattress off the top of a bunk bed, placed it between the bunk bed ladder and a table and german suplexed someone through it from the top of the bunk bed...  So yes, I probably am mental (it was pretty awesome though).
