  1. Oh, yeah, I mean he explained that in his afterword. But just because he admitted it was going to be hugely frustrating for the reader didn't make it any less, you know, hugely frustrating. And again: I didn't need everything answered. But the way he essentially gave away nothing was annoying. I forgot about the afterword. That's hilarious. Did he try to pin it on the reader like he did in the Dark Tower series? To paraphrase, "don't bother reading this last chapter because it's not really a great ending...and if you actually want a satisfying ending, well, you're just a shallow person because it's the journey, not the destination."
  2. Walter Junior shoots because he's tired of playing a character with CP, because Russo doesn't realize the actor has CP in real life. Also, the entire subplot with Don Elegado, Gus, Gus' boyfriend, Hector and the poisoned tequila is scrapped because "nobody cares about Mexicans." The show is moved to New York, obviously.
  3. Holy fuck. Holy fuck. I walk around my house saying, "WHEAH YA BEEN RAY?!?!?" She was written to be sort of sympathetic last season but this season she's just insane and irrational. Calling her cop boyfriend because her daughter was at Ray's house? "I thought you were all in?!" Just wow. I wanted to put her "all in" a dumpster someplace. Either the cop boyfriend is a setup or he's the most pathetic, desperate character in TV history because I cannot see how anyone would want to be with someone this unappealing.
  4. My god. That's perfect. I feel like Tommy would be the only person in the world who would truly understand Vince and vice versa.
  5. Airport parking is expensive though. $30 a day? Good luck with that! LOL I think it's kind of like making your stars dress nicely for appearances' sake. NJPW makes AJ park at the airport to give the appearance that their champion is a successful athlete, because paying upwards of $30 per day is straight ballin'. The champ can't be seen taking the shuttle no matter how economical it is, dude.
  6. I think forcing a tiny indy who never does DQs to do a DQ finish is really dumb, but fuck it, that's on PWG for accepting that stipulation. Why they booked AJ for the show is another question. PWG sells out regularly so it's not like they needed him to move any tickets. In the end, does any of it matter? I'm just selfish and hate seeing a shit finish on a show I'm looking forward to, especially when the shit finish is done for reasons I disagree with. We can all agree to disagree on those reasons and still be e-bros.
  7. Ain't no delusions of grandeur like Internet message board delusions of grandeur.
  8. I'd love to see a Breaking Bad episode scripted by these no talent clowns. Bryan Cranston breaks kayfabe on camera and shoots on Vince Gilligan.
  9. I read it maybe 8 years ago, long after the Stephen King rose had lost its bloom for me (intentional Dark Tower reference? Maybe). I wouldn't sweat the lack of a coherent solution on some great mystery. Just chalk it up to the fact that King couldn't write a satisfying ending if you put a gun to his head.
  10. Jesus Christ why do I watch Masterchef? Sorry dudes, carry on.
  11. That's awesome. I moved from a part of MD that got Baltimore's Sinclair affiliate to an area that only gets DC channels about a year ago. It'll be good to see ROH again and it sounds like they're picking up.
  12. You're right. I should have said "one certain very narcissistic strain of Christianity" instead of "religious people." There are religious folk who do their thing and don't necessarily believe The Divine Hand of the One True God is literally reaching down to help them in their everyday lives.
  13. RG3 apparently doesn't need surgery. He was quoted as saying "He was watching over me." Religious people drive me up the fucking wall. Yes Robert, He wasn't watching over women and children getting beaten or the multitudes of players sustaining career shortening concussions yesterday and every week, He was just watching over one overrated player who can't even run without hurting himself. SMFH.
  14. Just photoshop Hogan's head onto Savage, so it looks like Hogan is posing with his waxwork. But also shop a world title belt onto the real Hulkster. And have waxwork Hulkster holding a bass guitar. EDIT: Brother. Here you go, brother.
  15. Wow, I'm glad I haven't downloaded that one yet. I was fretting over having the time to finish the marathon Meltzer/Semp show. Problem solved.
  16. I liked Disco on the show but he seriously lost credibility when, during the whole Russo/TNA/Spike thing was going down, he insisted the best way to get the real story would be to call Russo and get him on the show. Next we can call GWB and get the real story on Iraq's WMDs.
  17. Great point. 4-5 years walking around as campus celebrities and having a completely different set of rules than regular students turns these guys into sociopaths and narcissists. How about we get rid of college as a minor league and institute a real minor league instead?
  18. Hitting kids with carrots never helps, I agree.
  19. Corporal punishment doesn't make a kid afraid to do wrong, it just makes them afraid of their parents.
  20. I thought Law & Order: SVU was the one that covered crimes involving seamen?
  21. If he cuts a promo before next year's WM and tells his opponent, "no more half measures," I'll shart.
  22. NBC did an interview with a handful of present and former NFL wives and they've been showing it on the Today Show and on affiliate news segments. It's worth a watch just to see what Stockholm Syndrome looks like right there on video.
  23. I haven't seen BOLA yet; all I know is footage from the preview videos for the shows. The video for night 1 shows the ring entrances and Elgin doesn't have the belt. AJ is carrying his NJ belt, though. As far as precedent for ROH and PWG, I remember Austin Aries came out with the ROH belt sometime between 2009 and 2010 when he worked a handful of PWG shows while he was ROH champ, but I don't think any ROH champ has done that since. I know Cole didn't. If the whole issue is all this pearl clutching over what the esteemed Tokyo Sports going to say, and how the fans will feel, than why limit it at jobs? AJ wrestles in front of thousands in NJPW. Won't pics of him working an American Legion hall diminish him and the belt, too? I remember feeling embarrassed in 2004 looking at pics of Misawa, hailed as a legend on the message boards, working in front 300 people at a rinky dink Mike Modest show. Did fans in Japan see those pics and have the same WTF reaction?
