Placebo Effect

The four first round matches. The first tag match is picking up the pace, though.

Yay. That Kash/Dallas interview was the EXACT thing from XPlosion, but they just redid it so Kash would call Low Ki a midget, and Dallas wouldn't push the cameraman down at the end.

Not a flag! Anything but a flag! God, the humanity. This was such a terrible idea.

Ohhhh.... My.... God.... SHUT THE FUCK UP HARRIS

AIR RAID!@! Johnny Swinger and Jason Lee. Negative. AJ Styles and Air Paris.

I can't believe I paid for this. First match was Aguila going over one of the UKers, and it this Brit is fucking sloppy.

I grabbed most of this list from another website, and Goldfinger was one of the few who I was "ehhh" about including in this list. I can't confirm they've been dropped, but Jive doesn't take low record sales lightly, as they've shown themselves to be very drop happy. Skrape got fucked over huge by RCA. The album got pushed back several months, killing any momentum they had thanks to their support of the Spineshank/Nino tour, and received zero promotion upon "Up the Dose's" release. Orgy's new CD is already out, and it's pretty bad ass.

Found parts of this on another board and figured some may of you may be interested. While there are certainly a lot of untalented acts on the list, the fact that you've probably never heard of most of these groups goes to show how pussified record labels have become. The vocalist for Twisted Method explained to me that despite having the best selling album of all the Ozzfest 2003 sidestage groups, getting picked up for three tours since then, and getting themselves a steady fanbase despite unimaginative music, their management had to pick up the tab for a website photo shoot. And a video, well, of course, that's out of the question. Here you go... 1. Abandoned Pools Dropped By Warner Bros., Leave Exctasy 3. Adema Dropped By Arista 4. Apex Theory Dropped By Dreamworks 6.

What do you mean? I thought low ratings cancelled it. Why do they cancel everything after 52 eps? Have they done this with other shows? To my knowledge things Johnny Bravo and Powerpuff Girls are still being made. Disney does the same thing. Recess, in my opinion, is one of the most enjoyable animinated shows to ever come from there, and it was still grabbing them great ratings when it hit roughly 65 episodes. They did the same thing with Lizzie McGuire when everyone's contract had an option to renew despite it being the most popular show on their line-up for years.

AIR RAID!@!

For all three of these shows, it really depends on if you're into nu-metal and its various subsidaries. I am, and I'm a big fan of Element Eighty and Orgy, while Josh Todd is the lead singer of Buckcherry. Josh Todd is, like Marilyn Manson, just a band named off the lead singer. Honestly, download/cheaply buy the albums from all three artists. To me, going to a concert, even a shitty one, where you know the lyrics to the songs they're playing > seeing a great band whom you've never heard before.

I believe it is. The band blows nuts live.

That was God damn funny.

Here's a site you might like: TardBlog Unfortunately, Riti Speed shut her site down a while ago as she quit the field, as do so many teachers within the first few years. It's available on Archive.org, though.

Well, I like the attention to detail with Eugene biting his fingernails. I work with mentally handicapped kids (thankfully a tad bit more skillful than how Eugene's playing it), and many of them are very OCD with biting their fingernails.

Ohhh... My... God...

My favorite part of last night's Home Movies, thanks to the line delivery. Melissa: I think Coach McGuirk and your mom would make a cute couple. Jason: They're both kind of dumpy. I'll miss it. Don't even know why they'd bring Baby Blues back, as while I don't hate it, it's not half the show that any of the WB/UPN castoffs are.

Ohh shit. With Regal, I bet this'll be comedic gold.

EUGENE

Nitro music! YES!!

It was actually spelled Jung Dragons. Because the Japanese, uhhh, I guess they spell the 'y' sound with a 'j.' And Yang's finisher in WCW, if I remember correctly, was called Yang Time.

Seriously? I'm not drawing much sarcasm, though I'll throw this out for anyone who didn't actually get the joke. Flying Elvises (or Elvi) was the name of tag team Yang was briefly a part of in TNA. He was Yang in WCW as a part of the Jung Dragons.

That was fucking hilarious. There's proof that WWE doesn't watch the weekend shows.

That'd drive me up the wall. Remembering who's over and who's not when booking = screaming.

I've been using the TEW trial for 50 hours. I simply haven't closed the game, since I use a laptop that's always turned on. I'm waiting for a better RaveX update. Playing the game is impossible because if you're ROH or NWA, you have to sign everyone unless WWE steals them, and if you're WWE, you have all your main event talent and so few other people.
