  1. Not exactly a VG commercial, but the Citibank commercial with two VG players commanding two "fighters" around was hilarious "Restart! Restart!"
  2. That's the whole fourth wall thing
  3. I don't know what exactly this whole "sacred bond" among minority groups is about, especially when I tend to hear or read more about homogeneous race-on-race crimes than crimes crossing racial boundaries
  4. Um, what? The fourth wall The crowd used to be an interactive element that wrestlers would draw from, much like the crowd of a real sporting event. Nearly all interactivity between wrestlers and crowds seems to have ceased, though. In essence, WWE wrestling has moved behind a fourth wall, becoming not much different than a sitcom ('Taped in front of a live studio audience.") where wrestlers and other WWE characters only acknowledge other wrestlers/characters and ignore the audience. That doesn't necessarily apply to just promos/"sketches" either, but also in matches. I remember a couple years back when Hogan was in-between WWE stints and would talk about how in his matches with newer wrestlers like Lesnar, the wrestlers would adamantly stick to the script, rather than realizing what the crowd liked and deviating to run with that instead.
  5. Eric Bischoff's quote about the superkick being so bad it "wouldn't earn a green belt at the YMCA" was classic
  6. Two of the three major conference teams with no losses going into the bowl season last year already have losses in the first week This may be a different football season. Or it'll just be USC with everyone else playing for second.
  7. Excellent counter-argument
  8. "A queef is a vaginal expulsion of gas, m'kay."
  9. Get rid of the fourth wall
  10. Most of the Season 8 host segments sucked IMO because 1) a good portion of the sketches were trying to advance that running story over the whole season, at the behest of SFN, which reduced the number of host segments making fun of the movie and 2) I hated Pearl Thankfully Seasons 9 and 10 got rid of the running storyline concept and the sketch quality went back up (though they still had Pearl)
  11. The American consumer
  12. That's more like it
  13. I was quite disappointed with the choices to round out set 8
  14. You just described the entire folder.
  15. Is this a generalistic prediction, or do you have a specific game in mind?
  16. Upset of the year will be if someone knocks off USC
  17. Dama came down too hard on the players during his library patrols
  18. Game over
  19. I could care less about Kanye as an artist or his politics But I did laugh my ass off when he broke out with the "Bush doesn't care about black people" line
  20. It's very interesting. Wisconsin is running all over BG (200 yards in the first), while BG is passing wild over UW (300+ yards in the first)
  21. We may not have to wait two months for the inevitable Dama-meltdown
  22. ...and? I imagine you're trying to demonstrate why you think Kanye is a superior lyricist to Zappa. I'm not going to argue that Kanye is bad, since I don't know shit about his work, but the least you could have done was choose a serious Zappa commentary song (ex: Heavenly Bank Account, The Meek Shall Inherit Nothing, or Jesus Thinks You're a Jerk)
  23. Goo-Mart?
  24. When he broke the "George Bush doesn't care about black people" out of nowhere, it felt like a sketch. And I laughed, hard.
  25. Now that I think about it, for the longest time I always read that poster's name as "Morrissey's Queef"
