  1. They are supposedly letters from the police warning people of various bits of utter fucking shit. Once being finding a baby chair (with or without doll) beside a random country road.. stopping here for these means you are going to get gang raped/robbed/forced to watch repeats of AbFab

     

    Same with the sticker.. apparently gangs of pigeons are going about putting things on windows so that when you get in your car, then start it up.. you see this, get out (Leaving the car running) and the gangs steal your car..

     

    People CONSTANTLY share all this shit.

     

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

  2. 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"

     

    Okay, gonna have to ask what this one's actually about. Either way, it's making me feel great about my Facebook friends.

  3. I stand by my original statement.

     

    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.

     

     

    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.

     

    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.

  4. "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.

     

    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...

     

    DO THEY HAVE SHIT ON THE MARKET?

     

    Fuck yes.

  5. 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.

     

    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.

     

    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?

  6. 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"?

     

    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.

     

    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".

     

    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!"

     

    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".

  7. 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.

     

    So, anyone else got this? Does it show things in full or just jump between chunks of stuff?

  8. 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.

     

    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?
