John Mulaney has a great bit how shitty air travel can be.

Ayn Rand is my personal nemesis. I honestly do not understand how people can take her clap-trap seriously.
Shit, it starts young too. I helped run a STEM summer program for middle school students and one of the boys sexually harassed a girl by staring at her all day, following her around, and writing sexually explicit notes to her. The administrations general attitude was “boys will be boys.” The program was on a college…
I bet she also winces a lot in “pain” and sighs meaningfully every time she talks about the things she can’t do anymore.
Still not as funny as when Ronny tried to use one of the most depressing songs of the 80’s for his campaign.
That’s kind of impossible now, isn’t it? Brian Pillman coined the term “smark,” and now all wrestling fans are basically that: well informed, know the show is scripted, and watch the hell out it anyway. It’s that mixing of kayfabe and shoot that gives fans the feeling that they are part of something real, in my…
It’s that 50-50 booking mentality. Nobody is allowed to be hot for too long, unless it’s Cena (who gets the wrong kind of heat). The worst part is: Rollins, Owens, Rusev, Wyatt, and every other Cena fodder are amazing wrestlers/characters. All are also NXT alumns.
In my opinion, AJ Lee wasn’t a great talent in the ring, but she brought a legitimacy to the woman’s division that had been lacking since Lita. The Bella’s, for as much as I despise their meteoric rise, offer an establishment opponent for the Horsewoman to take down. I really wish they’d stop the “catty infighting”…
It depends. The first ever Iron Man match in ‘92 was a 30 minute affair between Ricky Steamboat and Rick Rude. More than half of all Iron Man matches are less than 60 minutes, actually.
John Cena is the ultimate tabula rasa. You want him to destroy Zack Ryder’s career, then he will. You want him to have a 5 star match with CM Punk, then he will. You want him to systematically destroy the Nexus and put back the careers of all involved by at least 3 years...done. He’s an amazing worker, marvelously…
Stephanie is definitely a product of her father. She can be an excellent heel and a serviceable face, but she tries so hard to be both at the same time it just comes off as schizophrenic. To quote the OSW guys, HHH must be the best husband in the world to give Steph credit for something that he clearly spearheaded.…
The Four Horsewoman definitely occupy that NXT middle space between kayfabe and shoot. It’s almost like NXT trusts their fans to know the distinction.
Sasha Banks is a wrestling genius. She’s one of the top five workers in the company, has an exceptional grasp on how to pace a match WWE-style, and besides Owens is probably the best heel in the company. She made a little girl cry by taking her headband and beating up her hero...that’s a solid kayfabe villain right…
He’s the Rainmaker.
Lick? Gross. I’ll sometimes run my finger across somebodies lens if I’m really pissed at them, but even then...it has to be some serious business for me to do that.
So...you went to a grocery store in Vermont?
As a glasses wearer, rule number one if you know you’re going to be in for a long kiss/make out: take the glasses off. The last thing you want is greasy face schmear all over your corrective lenses.
As an ex-mo myself, the parallels became clear (heh) from the word go. The difference, of course, is that the LDS church is essentially the Starbucks of religion: a bunch of franchised locations that all look the same and give the same spiel and give a kick back to the bosses in Salt Lake.
Eh, I know people who say that as a broad term to generalize the feeling.
