King Kamala

Lordy begordy- I feel like I'm having a heart attack. I feel like I'm having a heart attack. Oh god- the wrong King is drunk posting at the wrong time (Monday night?)

Ugh, aforementioned white guilt led me to drink a lot of PBR and Crystal Light and Vodka (WTF kind of friend has Crystal Light as chaser?). My chest hurts. I feel like I'm dying. God bless Dr. King.

That's true, Farley didn't quite get the same chance that Belushi and Candy to portray other facets of his comedic talents.

I was going to make a light hearted, jokey Facebook note about Martin Luther King Day and somehow whilst looking for potential material, accidentally ended up on a white supremacist site. Ending up on that type of site on this day is going to give me white guilt to last the whole year round . KOAB (or EHME or Black Lushus or any of TSM's many great African American/Canadian members), please tell me I'm not a racist!

At the risk of sound blasphemous, I think Farley is kind of overrated. I think he's an incredibly fascinating figure but he's sort of one note . Not to say he's bad because he does that one note pretty well in five minute sketches but it gets kind of tiring in some of his lesser movies. John Belushi, on the other hand, though remembered as the originator of Farley's fat guys acts wacky and falls down funny shtick, could do impressions and did very well in those understated 12:50 type sketches on the show. Again, I like Farley but he's not in the league of John Belushi and John Candy in terms of great big man sketch comics.

And now a video tribute, thanks to the fine users of DailyMotion. With Alundra Blaye Vs Hakushi and Bull Nakano Weird to see Mean Gene comment on '95 WWF action. Vs Mankind (RAW after WrestleMania XII) Vs Randy Orton Hardcore Title Battle Royal (WrestleMania 2000) Vs Rock Lesnar (Royal Rumble 2004)

One of those '96 shows that isn't particularly good outside of one or two matches but I'm inexplicably and overly nostalgiac about. Maybe it's because I had just gotten back into wrestling after a year long absence or maybe it's because the first house show I went to was two weeks or so after this and there were a couple of rematches from this show. The booking of the tournament is somewhat underrated. Austin-Mero set up a nice, little mini-feud that managed to put both guys over and tide Austin over until Hart came back and Vader-Roberts put Vader over nicely as a sadistic monster without putting a dreaded (at the time) heel vs heel matchup. And as a mark, I personally thought they were setting up a Jake Roberts fights insurmountable odds and wins the tournament and validates his comeback finish or at the very least Jake Roberts fights bravely before Austin has to resort to cheating to beat an injured fogey. Besides even a mark with no knowledge of the inner working of the biz, I thought there was no way that bad guys would win The King of The Ring three years in a row! I may have been the only one but I was surprised to see Austin just kick the everliving shit out of Jake The Snake.

It isn't really that bad...though it is noticeable. I was just using it more as an example.

After Hours...man who knew Scorsese could do zany black comedy? Incidentally, the movie arriving at my house via Netflix coincided with Roger Ebert posting his Great Movies review of it.

They're $1.99 on Time Warner. Not too bad of a deal. It's a shame I go back to my cableless school on Monday or else I'd order a few (I haven't seen '96 and '97 since they first came out on VHS).

As for great games of the '00s, how about The As-Royal game in '02 where The A's blew an 11-0 lead but then Scott Hatteberg hit a walkoff home run in the 9th to give them their twentieth win in a row? Atheltics/Royals (9-4-02)

In fact, we have the proof on video for two of the four!

Why can't we just post videos for the rest of this thread? Twisted Sister's cover of "Leader of The Pack" (sung from the perspective of the leader!). This pretty much killed their career. Warning this video is rated H for Humor!

II and III (which is about gutter punks and apparently, hasn't been released on VHS or DVD) are in their entirety on YouTube in their entirety but I is conspicuously absent. "Talk Dirty To Me" is one of the few hair metal songs I really enjoy but I've never seen why Poison is seen in a higher light than Warrant, Ratt or any of the other second tier hair metal bands. Maybe it's my seething hatred of Bret Michaels that dates back years before he made Rock of Love. Oh in my initial post, I forgot to mention that I own and enjoy the KISS compilation solely focused on their non-makeup, hair metal years. So cheesy, so good. Somehow Paul Stanley is more cartoonish without the makeup than he is with it.

This is the electronic store underling equivalent of Eric Bischoff showing up on RAW or Jeff Richards jumping from MadTV to SNL, I haven't decided which yet.

Another minor pet peeve of mine. Whenever I happen to cut the cheese around him (which isn't all that often), my best friend always does the universal PU gesture and says "GOD! Why do your farts always smell so bad!?" Wha? I know my flatulance isn't the most fragrant scent in the world but is there a world of difference between a good smelling fart and a bad smelling one? Maybe it's just me but when you're over the age of 11, isn't it generally common courtesy when someone else cuts one is to grimace and ignore it? Unless the fart is flagrantly audible or repetitive in which case its OK to giggle to your hearts content. Besides the dude has B.O. and I've never told him to buy some deodrant in the fifteen years or so I've known him. Yet still he has better luck with the ladies than I. It's clear females prefer B.O. to flatulance.

Of the two options, I'd rather have it as its own folder. HOWEVER, ideally it'd be a subfolder in General as it used to be.

I vaguely recall him making an appearance with The Old Age Outlaws. So that would have been around January '00. Wouldn't surprise me if he popped up randomly during the Millionaire's Club Vs New Blood feud. According to onlineworldofwrestling, he was released in Fall of '00 but he was gone months before that.

OK, changed my password here so now I can tell ya and enjoy the JN News goodness... Leena not figuring that out is a blessing from message board heaven

dohhhhhhhh---I'd tell you my password there if it wasn't the same one I used here *facepalm*

Well so as long as you don't take away General Wrestling, Czech. Or you'll have hell to pay!

JN News bringin' the content over at Cawthon's board

TNA Folder went downhill when they banned Jearan for revealing that this forum is secretly filled with whiny goths who hate everything.

That's right! Doo doo do do do do do do do WAAHHHHH WAAHHHHHHH

Only time I got caught (sort of) was once about six months ago by my brother. He walked in the door just I was skeet skeet skeetin', I had time to wipe most of it up, and pull up my underpants but not my pants and I had the soiled tissues crumpled up in one of my hands. I think he could tell what I'd been doing but for some reason, we proceeded to have an awkward, entirely unrelated conversation instead of me bolting away in embarrassment.
