WHO THE FUCK HIRED CHRIS CHAMPION?

I stared at the Batista figure for a solid minute wondering why his accessory is a restaurant check holder. I was wondering if maybe part of his gimmick as the young boy of Evolution was that he always had to foot the bill.

Nah. She defended him and shit on the accusers. She can fuck off.

The Rock apparently subscribes to the Michael Caine philosophy of picking roles.

Google gives no fucks. What are you going to do, switch to a Microsoft phone? lolololol "Don't be evil" my sweet ass.

That's what really got me. Mr. Robot is on a network and is weekly...you know, the actual definition of episodic TV. It should really be written that way. If USA intends for me to binge it, let me know that ahead of time and I'll just watch it in a few months.

I can't fault Rockstar at all for going with the higher profit, lower cost choice. At the same time, they've made so much quality stuff for so long, becoming a "pay to win" developer on par with the crap you see in the Google Play store was not what I had expected of them. I'm disappointed at the lack of single player DLC (I enjoyed TLAD and BOGT far more than plain old GTA4) but I get it.

Nice job giving the "gay = pedo" crowd some ammo, Spacey.

Four episodes in and decent so far. I'm still not a fan of the "we can pace the show differently because it's built for binging" school of scriptwriting, but I'm old, so ymmv.

I'm really enjoying this season more than previous seasons, and I'm glad they went back and explained what happened to Wellick after the hack instead of leaving it out there as a mystery that may or may not have ever been explained. I'm also digging Bobby Cannavale's Irving as a long-term operative via retcon. White Rose putting Trump in office was lolsome. All that goodwill aside, this shit absolutely jumps the shark if they go with time travel or alternate realities/parallel dimensions.

And now at least two actresses have come out with tales of George W. Bush grabbing their asses during photo ops. Creepy fuck even jokes, "my favorite magician is David Cop-a-feel!" Rich white male privilege writ large: the guy is an invalid who probably can't even function sexually anymore, but still thinks it's his right to touch any woman any way he feels like. His spokesperson's response to the accusations is ridiculous. Some have seen it as innocent; others clearly view it as inappropriate. "So get that stick out of your ass, you uptight bitches."

Fear the Walking Dead actually just had a halfway decent season. Shocking, I know.

No way, brother. He's on Alvarez's show weekly exposing the business.

Leaving WWE because you're being booked poorly is like leaving porn because someone spooged on you. We don't know what really happened but, if this is true, it's pretty stupid. As someone else said here, walking out due to your booking when you're two years in the business is a) dumb and b) markish as fuck.

Oh no, not making allusions, I just didn't look up the name because I was pressed for time/feeling lazy when I posted. Looking it up, it was actually Jen Kirkman. She made an allusion to harassment in comedy in her podcast, which Gawker/Jezebel speculated was about CK, and they made hay with it. Check out the comments on the article, too.

Seeing that cast list, there's also a disappointing lack of ghosts and haunted items.

LOL that was the exact thing I heard in my head as soon as I saw this pic.

To be fair, two of your linked articles are Gawker sites and the other two use Gawker sites as a reference. Gawker (I think Jezebel, actually. But Gawker is good shorthand here because we all know Gawker) took a blind item from a podcast and said "it MUST be Louis CK!!" and the rest is history. Even the comedian who made the original comment Jezebel ran with has said it's not CK, but the Gawker family is still beating the drum. Seriously, read the comments in any of the Gawker/Jezebel/Gizmondo/Defamer/etc Louis CK stories and you'll find a ton of commenters saying, "why are you guys still pushing this?" And we're talking about a very liberal, most assuredly not MRA type, readership.

Viral meningitis is 2017's "elevated liver enzymes"

Did CZW ever have a match with the stip that the loser would get a communicable disease? Or was that actually every match? And not just the loser?

Exactly. I should have clarified when I wrote last week that, in the training I take every year, it's stressed that inappropriate behavior is subjective BUT it also has to be part of a pattern. For example, if two male coworkers are making lewd sexual jokes to each other and a female coworker overhears and is offended, it's not necessarily harassment. If that situation goes to HR, the guys will be asked to stop. If they continue, then it starts getting into the realm of harassment. This also speaks to the ridiculous "accidentally accused" thing. No HR department worth its salt is going to go ham on a guy for doing something one time (unless he pulls out his dick at a meeting or something). So how can a guy say something he thinks is innocuous and have his career ruined? Unless your company has ridiculous standards, you're getting told "don't say that shit again" and sent on your way.

This is an insane company and you should have just left at that point. HR getting involved in who is or is not making friends is way over the line. A PSA to anyone: HR is not your friend. They are there to: 1) Make employees think someone is on their side, keeping them docile and serving as an early warning system to the company, letting them keep tabs on employees who may be thinking of leaving or making trouble. 2) Cover a company's ass, from a legal perspective So if something is going bad at your company for you, and it's not actionable (i.e. you're not in a protected class and being harassed), your best bet is to get your resume ready and get moving, because HR is not there to help you. HR will only help you IF you have an issue that you can sue over.

Somebody told him, "if you're going to be a world champion, act like a world champion." Unfortunately, he took that to meant emulating Ric Flair's financial decision-making skills.

Edit: never mind
