    That’s ‘Just Bring It’.

    Don’t know if jazzy was trying to say the one with Fred Durst was also the one where bumps sound like a lorry crashing. Admittedly I did read it back a few times too.

  2. Current annoyance.

    Registered to volunteer with a local football club in helping out with web and digital stuff. Got an almost-instant response when I submitted my details. In November.

    Since then I’ve had three hour-long Zoom calls over three months where people just keep going over how we’re all “time poor” and “need to make the best use of our time” yet keep dithering about on calls without setting any next steps or action points.

    He was definitely always good but suffered from something DDP did for a few years, too many gimmicks going on at one time and just didn't know how to be himself. During that main event WCW run how many things did he have going at the same time? Multiple catchphrases, the glasses, the guitar twenty times a show, women by his side and more. He needed to distill that all down to something pure.

    I’ve been watching WCW from the first Nitro and made it through to February 2001. So little left 😢 However, I find the opposite with Jarrett.

    Having watched him “week in, week out” so to speak, his gimmick is just repetitive and boring. Every promo is, “I’m the chosen one!”, calling any one and every one “slap nuts”, and every match features a guitar being smashed over some one’s head. Hell, it doesn’t even need to be his match for someone to end up wearing a gimmicked six-string as a collar. It’s just the same schtick every show and it’s “X-Pac heat” for where, I don’t dislike him because he’s being a great heel; I dislike him because I’m utterly bored of the predictable promos and plodding matches.

    That said, I do think Jarrett is a great wrestler and it’s undeniable he has a great mind for the business having essentially been born into it. It was just the gimmick WCW gave him was lacklustre and way outran its course, with nothing new being added to it for the two years Jarrett portrayed it.

    Was it Sprules who claimed to be a great detective and thought he could solve the Ipswich red light killings?

    To be fair, they have been studying law and just got a placement as a paralegal:

    Not sure what’s with the name change, like.

    Because my work computer can't allow access to AdBlock, the YouTube on it gets targeted with all these nauseating "SMASH your workday with our management software!" ads, one of them featuring an actress who is apparently the absolutely lovely Samantha Proctor:

     

    I can hear her condescending voice just looking at the picture.

    “Why should you use Miro…?”

    Could be worse: a cosmic ray could make you double post. 

    Nah. That’s just this forum’s shitty software where, if your reply is going to go on the next page, then you don‘t get any feedback your reply has been posted and the compose window stays open.

    So Stadia is now officially dead, I did try it at one point and even with a wired connection to cable broadband it ran like shit with horrible input lag.

    Did anyone have a good experience with it?

    Amusingly, I got onboarded as a developer late last year. After weeks of back and forth, signing NDAs and whatnot, I got the “Congratulations! You’re now a Stadia developer! Here’s access to our SDK, docs, tooling” email and about a week later was when the news broke Google were shutting it down.

    You’d think they’d just not bother and fob me off if they knew it was going to be shut down.
