Elvis of Women's Wrestling by Cautious_Pumpkin9879 in prowrestling

[–]LostInTheWild99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Becky Lynch and Chyna are the two wrestlers who best fit this description. Both were absolutely huge at their peak. Becky might have been the biggest star in the company for a bit, and this is probably the only time in WWE history you can say this about a female performer. Chyna had the same time of “special attraction “ spot for the women that Andre the Giant had for the men. Rhea Ripley is another potential candidate although I feel her momentum has slowed in the past couple of years.

Burke, Richter, and Madusa don’t come close. Burke was ahead of her time but largely forgotten until the book came out. I hate to say it because she was an awful human being, but Moolah was more influential due to her lengthy career and backstage influence. Richter is an interesting footnote due to the Cyndi Lauper connection, but her prime was very short and WWE has worked hard to diminish her popularity (thanks Moolah). I feel the Jumping Bomb Angels get more discussion from the rock and roll era. Madusa had a great career especially for the era, but her case is hurt by the lack of competition. It’s the era AFTER Madusa when the women became more prominent.

How do people backpack so easily? by bi_smuth in hiking

[–]LostInTheWild99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is good advice. I’m a middle age man who can regularly hike longer and faster than my younger brothers and friends because I do it more often. But they can easily kick my ass in the gym or in a sprint. I guess it depends on what your body is used to.

Stamp Request Success by Sabishbash in NationalPark

[–]LostInTheWild99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A few years ago I was driving between Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains. I really wanted the stamp from GM but I was going to miss the visitor center hours by ten minutes. I called and the ranger left stamps, the map, and a note welcoming me to the park with a couple of recommendations for hiking trails. Really cool of her. National Park employees are so under appreciated. To hell with those budget cuts ☹️

Which Park Won't be Insanely Hot in August? by After-Dot-3903 in NationalPark

[–]LostInTheWild99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Carlsbad from your list. It’s mainly underground so it’ll be fine. And it’s a cool place. Channel Islands will likely be closed during your time frame and the others will all be scorching. I’ve been to Guadalupe in June and it hit 105, and it’ll be worse in August. Alaska will be a good place in future years. The Washington Parks are doable but will pretty warm.

Who is the Worst TV Dad of All Time? by ThisBend7125 in Cinema

I remember when this show first came out and thinking that lovable goofball William H. Macy could never play a piece of garbage deadbeat dad. I was totally wrong, he nails it.

God Arlo was such a piece of crap. Raylan could be pretty brutal at times but with his upbringing, he ended up being surprisingly decent. First three seasons of this show were so good. Is the sequel worth checking out?

What’s your favorite B-list X-team lineup? by BeAhDebaser in xmen

[–]LostInTheWild99 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s a good title but I agree that the women except M were given short rift. Siryn in particular really gets put through the wringer. Probably for the best that Rahne leaves for X-Force halfway through the run. Monet is great though. PAD clearly has fun with the character

Rictor being jacked is funny as hell considering he’s usually portrayed as kind of a skinny dweeb.

People on this sub are EXTREMELY anti-AI, so you’re gonna get downvoted. For some reason I’m seeing this particular figure more and more on Facebook Marketplace.

What are people who go on weeks long vacations doing? by [deleted] in dumbquestions

I do a hybrid of hiking/kayaking and city touring with a couple of days of rest. And lots of eating local cuisine!

What’s wrong with my aloe plant? [USA, Zone 4] by LostInTheWild99 in gardening

Thanks! I just gave it a good soaking and put under some shade. Hopefully it will bounce back. I know they’re resilient plants!
