Capital punishment has been around for millennia. I think it's fair to say it's had a pretty long trial run. In terms of actual statistics, I strongly recommend reading Freakonomics by Stephen Levitt. Just using the numbers of it, he pretty much demolishes the argument for capital punishment.

To be fair, there's plenty to hate Sugar for outside of football anyway. I can't shake the feeling that United's been turned into Spurs In The North. Slowly, it's being turned into (if it hasn't reached there already) a banter club.

No noose is good noose.

I really enjoyed his song "Straight Tequila Night" - posted it in the Song of the Day thread. Very distinctive voice. Really need to listen to more of his work. RIP.

Numerous reasons why we shouldn't have the death penalty. 1. It cannot be undone if someone is wrongly convicted and executed. 2. Statistically, it's not a deterrent. 3. For me the most important: it dimishes us as a society. Killing people is wrong. How can we demonstrate what good and lawful behaviour is by perpetrating what we consider to be one of the worst crimes anyone can commit, morally or legally?

The mention of Chavo reminds me of Chavo Classic. Showed up for an angle, did better than people expected, got booked long-term, got the Cruiserweight belt, then completely flaked out.

See, with my sweet tooth, it's the Fruit Punch that's my go-to. That said, I do love the Black Grape and Pineapple ones. The Kola's nice, but I'm just not bothered about colas in general. Not a soft drink, but I really like grapefruit IPAs - Magic Rock's High Wire Grapefruit is delicious, and perfect for summer.

Aldi still do their rip-off.

Rice and soup is a classic. Get it a lot in Korean restaurants in particular. I don't know why I remember this, but @Vito once posted a recipe for savoury rice pudding, which was basically a tin of Heinz Cream of Chicken & Mushroom with rice in it. I've meant to give it a go, but never had the presence of mind to do it.

This always bugged me as well, especially as it was McMahon's project. You would have thought he would have either set things up so that it wouldn't end up pissing off the veterans, or at least protected the TE guys a bit better, in light of it being his idea. But, then, that presumes that VKM's motivation was anything other than trying to make cheap content and a quick buck off the reality TV trends of the time. Sounds like they should be posters on here

To be fair, that's what Ikea and Hyundai have been doing as well. The Mandela Effect thing confuses me, to be honest, because such a big deal was made of 1. Mandela finally being freed 2. His leading the ANC in the first post-Apartheid elections 3. His being president I didn't, until this thread, realise it referred to people thinking he died in gaol, because that is just absurd. I thought it was that people had thought he'd died a year or two after leaving office, presumably based on the simple phenomenon of him being quite elderly, and out of the public eye. Of course, as this is a wrestling forum, I suppose the most prominent example of the Mandela Effect is Shawn Michaels superkicking Marty Jannetty through the Barbershop window.

Will that fucker ever be put away properly? Has he ever spent any proper time in jail, given how often he's been convicted? It doesn't seem like he's ever been out of the media. Farage, Yaxley-Lennon, Anderson, Tice - why won't any of these fucking turds just flush?

Sounds like an ex-girlfriend

I'd seen the books in the library too.

I remember some usage of "platty jubes" and "statey funes" on here. Can't remember who though.
