How to do Black Friday shopping if you are sane:
1) Pre-Black Friday deals are nearly as good as the ones actually on the day. A couple years ago, I got a 40" 1080p TV for $200. On Black Friday, if I'd wanted it for 12 bucks cheaper, I could have subjected myself to massive crowds and lines. Instead, I showed up to Best Buy a couple weeks before, found a clerk, said "I'll take one of those" and got out of there in about 10 minutes.
2) Cyber Monday, aka Black Friday for the internet. Buy shit there, then go make a sandwich.

So after calling out my employer’s HR office on violating policy re: background checks (specifically, they used information from seven years ago to disqualify me from my promotion when our union contract only lets them go back two), I was told I wasn’t going to be removed from the civil service list for the position I interviewed for.
Then last week I was offered the job.
So now after Thanksgiving, I will be a caseworker for the welfare department in Pennsylvania. It was a fight, but I got what I wanted and will be moving on.
I highly doubt this is the case, but it would be an interesting (if somewhat Machiavellian) twist if that were part of the test of getting hired: Fighting against red tape incorrectly applied.

When did Kane become a luchador, being so concerned about covering his face? The "he's a deformed, scarred freak" gimmick ended a long time ago. Does he just not want Knox County, Tennessee to see what their mayor is doing?
If you were a politician, would YOU want your constituents to see you in THAT match?

I don't think anyone is trying to erase Punk, because Punk doesn't hold any real records. It's only Bruno for the WWE title.
Vince cares. Vince definitely cares.

I think Casino Royale (No, Mark, not that one) is probably my favorite Bond movie, but QoS was so fucking bad. I'm hoping odd numbered Craig films keep hitting though.
Craig-Bond is the reverse Star Trek.

I assume everyone is talking about hair dye and shoes to sidestep the fact that Dean Ambrose had a wrestling match tonight, the highlight of which was his new offense.
His loose-ass strikes always looked like shit so seeing angry-face Ambrose start off the match with chain-wrestling was weird enough. Then he busts out these new power moves that looked genuinely good.

There is nothing more fun in freemode right now than parking your murdertruck a couple blocks away from Los Santos Customs and having your drone ready to blow.

Seth Rollins was apparently dressed as Thanos, according to twitter.
Which fits cuz Dean was dressed as a gas station attendant who knocked off work early to go see Infinity War.-

Why would the Shield fend off Braun "because he has the MITB contract" when 2/3 of the Shield has used MITB to get their own World title runs?
Cuz both of them cashed it in on the third Shield guy?

Also, Ronda blatantly calling matches in the ring...
I legit couldn't tell if "YOU READY?" was trash talking or she just couldn't call her spots any quieter.

One of his apologies he still felt the need to comment on her physical appearance but ok.

There's a fair point to be made about the fact that WWE is not a disinterested party in this discussion and it's certainly been one that has contributed to the double standard at play.
I'm not a fan of using it to diminish the point these women are making. Yes they feel more free to push back on Dave Meltzer than they do on their employer. So what?

Wild theory: R Truth being someone who clearly watches the product enough to have a basic idea of what is going on but can't quite connect the dots because he's old and crazy is one of the slickest ribs of Vince ever done on his own shows.

Mariners road trip...
L to R: Cameron Maybin as Bret Hart, Mitch Haniger as Owen (?), Nelson Cruz as Undertaker, Ichiro as Steve Austin, Denard Span as Hulk Hogan, and Guillermo Heredia as the Macho Man.
...why does Ichiro/Austin have Dudley glasses and a porn stache?

The safety of the home plate umpire is probably the absolute best reason this rule is in place. Imagine the poor bastard having to get beaned with a fastball with no catcher in front of him.
Well the game would also be ridiculous if there was no catcher.

Someone called FAN and seriously suggested that when there is less than 2 strikes in a count the Yanks should put Sanchez in the infield as a 5th infielder and play without a catcher, thus revolutionizing the sport with a new twist on the shift. This Is a Karl Pilklington level idea where I really don't know if it's brilliant, stark raving mad or so stark raving mad that it's brilliant.
Rule 5.02(a):
QuoteThe catcher shall station himself directly back of the plate. He
may leave his position at any time to catch a pitch or make a
play except that when the batter is being given an intentional
base on balls, the catcher must stand with both feet within the
lines of the catcher’s box until the ball leaves the pitcher’s hand.
PENALTY: Balk.-

POST SURVIVOR SERIES 2018 DISCUSSION THREAD
in WWE PROGRAMMING
Posted
WWE needs to implement the following policy. Hire someone with a knowledge of wrestling history that is well above average who has never worked in the business before. That person should have a reasonably normal social life, (i.e. not be a basement dwelling shut-in,) and have friends, family, and/or romantic partners who are not interested in wrestling.
This person's only job will be to observe all creative meetings and scripts and tell Vince when some bit of awful comedy he likes will embarrass wrestling fans in front of normal people.
