Fucking hell. I think I've found the location for my sequel to Ulysses.
-
I too also hate the morons that constantly share absolute dogshit about the place. All the fucking "Facebook is going to start charging" and "Watch out for babys beside the road or a sticker on your back window"
Â
Okay, gonna have to ask what this one's actually about. Either way, it's making me feel great about my Facebook friends.
-
Yeah, move over, Joe Namath.

Edit... Forgot to edit out my other facebook accounts name.. Feel free to add my Dog...

Your dog has shit grammar
Â
I really hope it was your Hogan-dog who posted that. He's calling you out, brother!
Â
IT'S ON!

I stand by my original statement.
Â
Quite right too, as it doesn't contradict the idea that he's underrated. All of his gimmicks have essentially been variants on "a bit of a bummer", and he's done them rather well.
Â
Â
Doesn't even seem like the same Samoa Joe from 2003-2006 as it does today. He looks like he couldn't give a toss now.Â
God, tell me about it. I don't know if it's just the fact that he's on a bigger stage now, with bigger guys around him, but he's just lost so much aura. He was this larger-than-life killer back then. It really is like watching a different person.

Bang on, Ian. While I totally buy the leader of a badass biker gang using the word "faggot", if he thought he could get away with it and for it to be effective in 2013 he's an idiot. And we know he's better than that because of how much better than that he's been for the last year and a half.

On the side of a derelict house is where that sentiment belongs.

"Here's the thing. All of them are going to buy the cereal, whether they like me or hate me."

John Cena, demonstrating that he *gets* wrestling better than anyone.
Â
Anyway, I came in here to post this because I couldn't be arsed digging up and bumping the Henchmen thread, but, for those of you interested...
Â
DO THEY HAVE SHIT ON THE MARKET?

Are we talking billed hometowns or real hometowns? With a combination of both I think I can get past 20 states.
-
Another awesome find from the warehouse. I love that they just hoard ALL the crap they've ever had. That place is amazing.
-
That's legitimately one of my favourite UFC moments ever.
-
She later told us, "He's probably never seen birds where he's from", ignoring the fact that (a) he was probably from the UK and (b) I'm pretty certain that birds can be found all over the world.
Â
Another slice of gold. This thread's fucking great.
-
I really hope Big Show's corpsing in the background like he appears to be.

Another thing i have noticed which i dont know if its racism but my great uncle will not eat anything thats not british, not even pizza or pasta. I've never heard him ever say anything bad about anyone from other cultures but he is deeply suspicious of any food that isnt british.
Â
My missus' great aunt is exactly the same. I was talking to her after I'd been out for a meal the night before, and she asked me what I had. I think it was gnocci or something equally middle-of-the-road, but she insisted it was "rubbish". She wasn't angry or uppity about it, though, she was laughing about it. I'm not sure it's as toxic or hatred-based as out-and-out racism, but it's almost certainly rooted in the same sense of unfamiliarity. And obviously, it rubs some people up differently - some people find it funny, some people find it frightening, or whatever else.
Â
It's an odd thing. We've grown up in a world with pasta, pizza, curries and stir-fries, but it's easy to forget that some people haven't. And furthermore, it's hard to imagine how we could ever have that experience - is there that much food left in the world that hasn't made it over here now? Is there enough to change our food culture, to the point where we could end up completely alienated like some old folk seem to have been?
-
They're still teaming up in Chikara. It's great! Aside from the fact that watching Jannetty throwing dropkicks is a bit skin-crawly when you know how fucked his ankles are.
-
Slighly off topic, but what's the score with Gollywogs these days? are they still deemed innapropriate? or is it fine since they were rebranded as simply "Gollies"?
Â
I ask because anyone who's been on a day trip to Skegness will know they are rife in giftshops. That, and on a visit to the cemetary this past Sunday, someone had left a collection of them at a nearby childs grave.
Â
A friend of mine's dad was given a gollywog by his black workmate, with whom he'd always had a kind of tongue-in-cheek-racist-joke kind of friendship. Upon seeing it, his boss demanded he remove it on the grounds that it would be offensive to the guy who gave it to him. Fair enough given the letter-of-the-law approach they logically have to take to these things, but still funny.

Simania's word filter on Real In Memphis where the word "Rangers" is changed to "dirty orange bastards", making the word "strangers" into "stdirty orange bastards".Â
Yes! I remember this filter. The same one that turns any mention of "Meltzer" or "Dave Meltzer" into "Mrs Angle", "Ogawa" into "ratboy" and, most bizarrely, "no mo" into "kayfabe!"
Â
You forgot the best one - it'd change any mention of "Dana White" into "fucking Dana White", and, brilliantly, would reapply the filter on quoted posts, leading to the first post in a big chain of quotes sometimes becoming "fucking fucking fucking fucking fucking Dana White".

Forgive the double post - Old School Raw tonight! Somebody's gotta be about, surely?
-
I like Hornswoggle and I think that's hilarious. He probably loves it too.
-
Y'know that moan I had about Casualty the other week? That, but about Call the Midwife instead, minus the complaints about it lasting so long (for now).

As part of my phone contract (Orange originally, now EE), I got these things called "swappables" - basically 2 perks I could change every month. I've never changed them, so I've got free ebooks I never remember to download, and Sky Sports and ESPN mobile TV that, for a limited amount, doesn't get deducted from my roaming data (fucking awesome). Anyway, the other month, a WWE channel popped up on the list, but didn't play anything when I clicked on it, causing me to get all excited and wonder if it meant I'd get the WWE Network when it launched. I meant to mention it at the time, but forgot about it until just now after I was watching the rugby. I clicked on it and it came up in the middle of Wrestlemania VI, with the Warrior's promo going into the entrances of the Orient Express vs the Rockers. Then it hit 10pm and it cut off, did the WWE signature thing, then started showing highlights from the Raw where Rock unveiled the new belt.
Â
So, anyone else got this? Does it show things in full or just jump between chunks of stuff?
-
Mankind was (according to Foley's book) approached about working with Mero prior to him getting hurt in a storyline that would have centered around Mankind thinking Sable was his "mommy" if you recall.
Â
Wasn't the story from Foley's book that Foley thought the angle was naff, and told them that if it was just to get him on Wrestlemania, he'd rather not be on it?
-
Anyone in for Raw tonight, perchance?
-
It says "Arena Mexico" on the poster. It was just a gimmick night. There were a few fully-fledged lucha events in London a few years ago, though. I think there was an NWA Jr Heavyweight title change on one of them.

Jeeeesus christ. I thought some of my Facebook friends were tits but I'm spoilt rotten really.
