WAR ROOM LOUNGE V12: Mao With Noir

[LMP]

Trolling can be therapeutic and good for the soul. But done in high quantities can lead to loss of sleep and nausea.

Trolling way back was almost an art form. Trolls would appear pretty normal, then post something weird that caught everyone's attention. Its hard to really consider these new guys trolls. There's no intelligent content, they just spam and sealion threads.

I'm no stranger to shit posting, call it trolling if you wish. I think the occasional trolling is fine, it's all about having a good time here anyways. The guys that are consumed by it constantly by doing it are the one I don't get. They go out of their way to get banned because they think thatvshit is funny. They don't seem to have anything else going in in their lives, really kinda sad.

And will we ever see WWE reach zenith like popularity as they did during the hulk Hogan vs andre giant era, or the stone cold and rock era?

There was a brief time where I made it a point to watch every episode of raw and smackdown.

If that's real, that's awesome.

Also, I can't remember anything about Sid Vicious at all as far as a character goes. All I remember is that he was a white man with a blonde jerry curl.

Edit: this is misleading because the newer tweet is clickbait/satire.

Can I suggest we segregate the race-baiting content to the non-stickied threads?

He was also very tall and cut amazingly hilarious promos.

I remember how, as a kid, WWF really distorted to me how big a grown human was.

I remember thinking Ken Shamrock was so tiny because he was only billed at 6'2 235.

You know one American fascination that I don't understand? Italian crime families.

I tried getting into The Sopranos, and I just can't. There is nothing about stereotypical Italian mob story lines that are anything but annoying to me. From the annoying accents, to the tired genre tropes, to the gelled hair and leather jackets, to the constant emphasis on family, as if Italian people are the only ones with families - I just don't get the appeal.

Also, American mob movies are perpetually overrated. Godfather was great, not amazing. Godfather 2 and Goodfellas were good, but not great. The Departed was hot ass garbage (but at least it wasn't saturated with Irish American ethnic shit). As far as The Sopranos goes, James Gandolfini (sp) is the only character who doesn't annoy the bejesus out of me.

How many times did you stop writing that post to admire your Fedora in the mirror?

If there was ever a hipster manifesto when it comes to American TV and film - you just wrote the prologue

No.

However, to my bewilderment, they're still making bank. For the life of me, I will never understand what convinced FOX to drop a cool BILLION for Smackdown.
