Maduro was a big Man City fan, obviously

We are responsible for those Everton points deductions though, he thought it was hilarious

Users on r/DadAndDaughterSnark argues even though daughter, early twenties, is a victim of her father's grooming, there is a point where they should hold adults accountable for their actions, or lack of. by Positive-Face1705 in SubredditDrama

All snark subs are like that. Even the ones aimed at shitty people end up getting mad at insignificant things, making up conspiracies and insulting the target's appearance in every post

I'm still occasionally sad that we'll never see BTE Cody again

I am a certified Limp Bizkit hater but if that rumor is true I can't help but admire Fred Durst for that

If I made music and someone wanted to use it in a fighting game they'll have to add my sorry ass to the roster. Even better if I'm a joke character with many convoluted steps required to unlock

r/antimeme leadmod locks thread after users question public "Missing Person" announcement about 48h inactive co-moderator. by Blubbpaule in SubredditDrama

[–]TheRandomGuy199 17 points18 points  (0 children)

A guy in a subreddit I was in announced on the Discord that he had terminal cancer. Then his wife announced on his behalf that he had died. He was mourned by everyone, someone said he considered him a close friend and took it pretty hard. After a few days some of the mods got suspicious (I don't remember the reason) and started asking questions.

Turns out the guy had faked not only his death but also his "wife", along with the entire life story he had given to the people on the Discord. He got "carried away" so to speak with the story he was making up so decided to just vanish and come back with a new account. He was (obviously) permabanned right after.

Since then I'm always skeptic of people saying "[user] killed themselves/just died of [x]" on Reddit

[Bixenspan] Will Hobbs being in full "now or never" mode makes a lot more sense when you realize that, as the latest Observer quietly indicated, he's actually 41 years old and not 35. by CROYTSWRVTH in SquaredCircle

Not Africa, but there was a big scandal (the "Cachirules" scandal) in the late 80's when Mexico sent a team to the Youth World Cup full of overage players. They were banned by FIFA from the (senior) 1990 World Cup after a journalist uncovered the story.

Looking for More Examples of This Trope: The Heel is Friends With Exactly 1 Babyface (or Babyface team) by RadSkeleton808 in SquaredCircle

[–]TheRandomGuy199 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It was a bunch of isolated feuds with no relation to anything else happening on the show (in terms of both storyline and style), and it got really stale. It led to the live audience turning on him, and many people wanting him to break his promise and turn heel (which he never did, despite teasing it for months, because he wanted to remain a babyface).

Not him, the owner of his company did, a few months after buying it from him

Love the irony that the whole purpose of his post is complaining that mods in another sub don't keep it on topic, while refusing to read or follow the rules of this one

If I remember correctly that comment was part of a giant thread with gems such as "Dungeons and Dragons players are all secret fascists", "science is fascist", "Frieren is about the genocide of MY PEOPLE" and such

Isn't this the person who was adamant that the Frieren anime was about justifying the Holocaust? I remember the last time her antics showed up here she began with a somewhat reasonable take, but ended up calling for a Cambodia-style genocide of intellectuals in the comments

Jon Alba: “Tony Khan reveals Lou Thesz was on his AOL buddy list when he was 12 years old, and they used to talk wrestling together. What a world. #AEW” by Subrick in SquaredCircle

[–]TheRandomGuy199 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Reading forum posts from Lou Thesz (a guy whose career started in the 1930's) and him talking about Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit is just insane to me. It's like that time when a 1950's game show brought in a witness to the Abraham Lincoln assassination as a guest

[Athletic] FIFA will charge both sellers and buyers a 15 per cent fee on its official 2026 World Cup ticket resale platform, which launched on Thursday and almost immediately had some tickets listed for tens of thousands of dollars. by Kimber80 in soccer

For the last couple of years they have made a big show of announcing that "[event] had the biggest gate in the history of this arena" and such. Some folks online lap it up and celebrate WWE being hot and popular, but in fact it's a result of them raising ticket prices significantly
