  1. "Centerfield" by John Fogerty is the one that immedietely comes to mind. And I love CCR and even some of Fogerty's solo work and I love baseball as well but good lord does this song suck. "I Just Called To Say I Love You" by Stevie Wonder. Again, love a lot of Stevie Wonder stuff. Can't get through a minute of this song without switching the station or vomitting uncontrollably. I'm having a hard time thinking of songs I truly hate. Cause I even enjoy listening to some downright terrible ones on occassion for shits and giggles. EDIT: And I love "Nothin Compares 2 U" but The live Prince version on his greatest hits compilation (Can't recall the name at the moment), I like even more. Have never heard the original version by The Family but I imagine it's similar to Prince's given that the man produced it.
  2. I'm still gonna have to disagree. I think any amount of time spent here besides no time is kind of lame . I'm sure ROH fans are the wrestling equivalent of Trekkies. I'm sure a good portion of them are well spoken, well respected members of society with social lives who just have nerdy interests but the ones that are the most vocal about their love of it draw the most attention and ire. I think it's unfair to deem the entire or even the majority of the fanbase (even a fanbase as small as ROH has) of something as a bunch of geeks who live with their mothers and wear punch bucket shoes. Never been to an ROH show or even watched very much of ROH but going to WWE shows has always been downright depressing to me but I'll be damned if it doesn't make for some fun people watching.
  3. I really don't think anybody on this wrestling message board is entitled to call out anybody for being nerdy.
  4. If we're counting no-names, my older brother's ex girlfriend went out with the local indie fed's weasley heel, Frankie Armadillo before she went out with my brother. Somewhat creepy thing is they went out when he was 22 and she was 16.
  5. I felt terrible for him. I went an hour or so into the signing and there were only about five people in line and he looked miserable, I don't think he even looked up from the paper the whole time. To be fair, it was in the middle of one of his nine month neck injury breaks. He's from the area so that's why I think they had the signing. Think it was in '02/'03.
  6. Tony Atlas at a used car dealership. I met Scotty 2 Hotty at an autograph signing at a grocery store, which seems to be a pretty damn weird place to have an autograph signing.
  7. I was watching Trading Places for the first time today and it inspired me from starting this thread. I think the thing that holds it back from being an undisputed comedy classic is the entire scene on the train. It just seemed like a big excuse for the actors to put on silly costumes and speak with accents. And Jim Belushi completely aping his older brother's schtick (pun intended) is really annoying in this one. Though I guess the whole the villain getting sodomized by an animal schtick was probably a lot more novel back then.
  8. Finger 11- now were they the ones that does Kane's theme? And I believe they had a big hit ballad about three years back. Think they're Canadian and thus huge in the Great White North. I think any Canadian band will be extremely popular in their native land no matter how crappy.
  9. Duran Duran- "Rio"
  10. His columns have gotten kind of lame in the past two or three months but for some reason, I'm really looking forward to his interview with Charles Barkley on his podcast this week.

    Time for embarrassing confession time; I got kicked out of an E-Fed when I was about 13 for "shooting" about the guy who wrote the wrestler my wrestler was feuding with, saying his interviews didn't make sense and he was a terrible writer. This was around the time Vince Russo was doing a bunch of worked shoot angles in WCW so I guess I was "inspired" by that.
  12. Guilty pleasures at the moment; Time (Clock of The Heart)- Culture Club Burnin' For You-Blue Oyster Cult We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off-Jermaine Stewart Don't Answer Me- Alan Parsons Project Pretty much anything by the original lineup of New Edition.
  13. Fun fact about the song I learned from an interview with the singer of Asia; guy actually claims "And now you find yourself in '82" isn't a reference to the year the song was released. Yeah, nice try to make your song look like it's not outdated. And I like about three of the songs (Including "Heat of The Moment" which is actually borderline Top 10 for me) on that Top 10 and can tolerate about three or four more. Again, I stress I'm kind of lame music-taste wise.
  14. Low ratings I assume. That's the reason 99% of shows get cancelled
  15. Alright here's the best estimate for my current favorites. It's a somewhat lame bunch. 10. "Don't Answer Me"- Alan Parsons Project 9. "Kate"- Ben Folds Five 8. "All The Way Up To Heaven"-Guster 7. "It Gets Me Going"-Spymob 6. "P.Y.T."-Michael Jackson (You could really insert any of the big singles off Thriller here. P.Y.T. is on here mostly because it isn't as overplayed as the others) 5. "I Love You"- The Zombies 4. "Changing of The Guards"- Bob Dylan 3. "Isis"- Bob Dylan 2. "Walk On By"-Issac Hayes 1. "Another Day"- Paul McCartney
  16. He also banged Margaret Cho- so I guess he has a thing for bad female comedians. Oh here's what many to be consider the worst SNL sketch ever; "Leather Weather" from what is considered the worst episode of all time (Malcolm McDowell/Captain Beefheart from the infamous Season Six)) And another candidate from the same episode, "Jack The Stripper". If you ever wanted to see Malcolm McDowell and Gilbert Gottfried in drag in a sketch about Prince Charles being a flasher, here's your chance.
  17. Saw Death At A Funeral today. Well worth seeing if it's still in theaters in your area and you're a fan of British comedy as I am. The last 40 minutes or so of the movie are pretty fantastic.
  18. I was a really good guard at Capture The Flag. Nobody could get passed me. Another one I should mention; My 7th grade class won the kickball tournament at 7th grade field day. We crushed everyone that year. As for Red Rover, was there any other asshole like me who would always try to break through the chain formed by the smallest kid in class?
  19. I imagine most of WWE's writers are in the union because most of them wrote for shitty sitcoms and soaps before they wrote for WWE. It'd be pretty cool if they aired some old episodes of RAW and Smackdown! But most likely, they'll either carry on without said writers or they'd air lame clip shows. I imagine SNL would be really impacted by this as well. I think they've had to cut to one or two seasons short due to writers strikes.
  20. I'd agree but it'd kind of hard to not be cause it really is a huge ripoff of The Rubinoos "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend", which is a damn fine power pop song "Girlfriend" isn't nearly as good as it but I'll take it over Sk8er Boi or any other any Avril song I've heard any day of the week.
  21. What is WITH those types? I knew a guy just like that, but I don't think marijuana was involved, just RPGs. This guy could kick ass at everything he ever did. He was the first chair trumpet in wind ensemble, but he never auditioned for jazz ensemble because that would mean he wouldn't have a study hall. He was an amazing basketball player, amazing volleyball player, pretty much any sport, he could do, but only within the confines of a required gym class, because he didn't want to actually be on any teams. I don't think he ever went to college. I don't know what he did. It was the weirdest thing. I'm gonna look him up on facebook and myspace. (EDIT: No sign of him. Either he offed himself or he was swallowed up by the matrix.) My old school had about five of those types oddly enough. I'm convinced if they had cared enough to play high school sports, we would have won State Championships in all of the major sports.
  22. Not an achievement but I have to share this great moment in mundane sports. So I'm in 5th grade and we're having a 5th grade/2nd grade kickball game (Mixed teams obviously as 5th Vs 2nd would be an incredible mistmatch). Anyways, we're playing the game, someone gets a "hit" and a 2nd grader starts running home and my class' hypercompetitive jock fucking clotheslines the little kid to prevent him from getting a run. Little kid starts bawling and everybody gives the jock shit. Later in the game, the jock kicks what appears to be a home run and as he rounds third into home, our 400 pound behemoth of a teacher pops out of nowhere and clotheslines him. What a way to teach a lesson.
  23. I forgot that I hit a game winning three in a 7th grade gym class game of basketball with a bunch of jocks as well. I was The Walter McCarty of gym class games of basketball that year. I was an overly enthusiastic bench player that occassionally made a clutch shot or defensive play.
  24. Czech- would winning my high school gym class' doubles badminton tournament count as mundane? My partner (one of those stoners that used to be a good athlete that can inexplicably bust out the athleticism when the time calls) did most of the work but I hustled man and he couldn't have done it without my sheer grit and enthusiasm for those semi-sports. We even managed to beat the gym teacher (granted, he was a 55 year old lifelong smoker) and a jock in a game. I also made it pretty far (IIRC to the finals) of that same class' pickleball tournament. Pickleball is kind of like ping pong without a table. I loved picklebal. In elementary school gym class, I was always really good at nukem (don't know how the fuck it was spelled, good chance teacher made it up), which was like volleyball except for some reason, you could throw the ball.
  25. Greg Valentine and Koko B. Ware better watch out!
