    Do you think that sub-section of fans still exists? Surely there can’t be that many people still convinced NXT is this big deal, offering an alternative to Raw and Smackdown?

    Yes, Herring really wants to win. It seems impossible to balance out the need to be competitive and entertaining.

    The rest of the team I've found great TBH.

    Daisy-May's self confidence, Katherine's obliviousness, Johnny's strangeness and Mawaan's sweetness give you a reason to cheer them all on.

    I'm also enjoying it. It ain't The Sopranos guys.

    Referring to people as 'cripples' is outdated by a few decades. While some people with disabilities might choose to use the term, it's generally a pretty shitty term to for most able-bodied people to use.

    Part of it is about how you define people - referring to these people as cripples (and, increasingly, victims) can make it sound like that's all you see them as.  

    Then please accept my apologies. I've been living in Germany for over 20 years and my English might lean towards the Alf Garnett but the point I'm making remains valid.

    As a point of interest, what did Thalidomide do to those babies? Did it disadvantage them?

    Not sure you do either and using that slur in this day and age? Really?  

    I'm not sure what slur you mean. Did Thalidomide not cripple its victims?

    And regarding vigour of trials, we're living in an age in which technology has hugely improved the vigour with which we can test things while also reducing the time needed (therefore increasing speed because time is half of the formula needed to calculate speed), so I'm also not sure where your problem with that is.
