Even if that were true (its not) it would still be unquestionably better than Fortnite

100% more worthwhile thing to do.

At first I was really confused cause I was just talking about how like, I intend to read these books to my kid one day but I know I’ll have to turn my brain off to do it and people were like “WOW DISGUSTING”. Then I realized they had taken the phrase literally and though I was planning to assassinate J.K. Rowling…

Good luck with this. Last time I mentioned “death of the author” in relation to J.K. Rowling on Kotaku people thought I actually wanted to kill her.

Sure, but that took months of setup to achieve. This was just a throwaway line.

Hard to say with Ciampa. I think the venue tends to amplify things a bit. In a bigger arena like Raw or Smackdown I’m not sure he’d get the same boos

That’s the thing though. Two of those three moments you mentioned were babyfaces getting booed by smarks. This was really old school nuclear heat on a HEEL for once.

Literally the only person I know who has been in anything approximating a bar fight is my wife. When she was 16 she was at a bowling alley when another girl started making fun of her friend. They begin jaw jacking and the other girl grabs my wife by the hair and pushes her head down so she’s bent at the waist. What…

Sure, before and after. But while they’re watching the show? If they’re smarky it’s about the workrate and flow of the match as a performance. It’s evaluated more like a ballet than a movie but even that isn’t really a good analogy because wrestling is an art form in and of itself. There’s nothing else quite like it,…

How much would you want to be paid if your job included the weekly possibility of just about every contact injury you could conceivably imagine?

As an in and out wrestling fan I would say no. The reason wrestling works is because of the sort of tacit agreement between company, performers, and fans to suspend disbelief while you’re watching the show. We like to talk about that when we see something that defies physics in a superhero movie, but we don’t REALLY…

Settle down, Cristiano.

Anyone notice that they DIDN’T check out Stefon Diggs when he got hit so hard from two different directions that his helmet flew off?

Even if she did she’s 100% knocked out on, or in this case off, her feet. Concussions are a hell of a thing and when your brain is turned mostly off you just go through the motions.

Anyone else a little disturbed by how many fucking guns he had on him?

This is the same company, as I recall, that couldn’t work out the Latin for the three families in the first Rome game and included King Arthur’s grail knights in the expansion, so honestly where the fuck have these people been re: historical accuracy?

Oh settle down.

I don’t just mean politically though. This is also why people let Oprah tell them what to read, or why my wife always makes me call for the pizza. It manifests itself politically of course, but its just an evolutionary instinct I think for people to want to follow rather than lead. Leading is dangerous.

People have a natural instinct toward wanting to give up control of their lives to someone who seems like they know what they’re doing. In the past that would’ve been some god or a king, now it’s the Obamas. Basic feudalism really, we’re not immune from it despite having no real history of proper feudalism in this…

The other day I suddenly remembered that Noah Cyrus was the voice of Ponyo and that really threw me for a loop.
