I Found Wrestling

WWE, man.

So, I know I'm late onto the WWE wrestling scene, but wow what have I been missing.

So, I never really watching wrestling growing up. I knew it was "fake" obviously, and that kind of just turned me off to it. I'm not exactly sure why, but there was something about the fact that the fights were scripted, so to speak, that just turned me off to the entire concept.

Well I owe a huge thank you to my roommate this year. We have a couple of HUGE wrestling fans in our apartment, and they bring wrestling into every aspect of the room. Steve literally sets his alarm to John Cena's entrance music, and plays WWE theme songs while he's in the shower. The kid literally lives and breathes WWE.

Recently, our other roommate, Dom, revealed that he pays $10 a month for all of the WWE PPVs, old and new, and we've been hooking his laptop up to the T.V. to watch a couple nights a week.

And, let me tell you, it is AWESOME!

Like yes, the same aspect of the "scripted fights" is still existent, but my state of mind has changed. I think of it more like watching a movie fight scene be filmed live. The athleticism and the danger are still both definitely present, despite their being safeguards to account for everyone's health. If you think about how these wrestlers toss their bodies through weakened tables and take falls from 20 feet in the air and walk away relatively unscathed, its unreal. It really is incredible.

Also, John Cena is a serious showman. Damn.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
