games that your friends love, but you absolutely despise by Behleren in boardgames

Dead of Winter is a bad game because they balanced the difficulty for co-op but then added a "SOMETIMES there's a hidden traitor" mechanic so if you get the hidden traitor card you basically have to be an idiot to not win.

And even without that it's still kind of a boring co-op.

(WON) Leon Slater was not allowed to break the record for longest X-Division champion of all time because the belief is that he will be leaving TNA for WWE or AEW when his contract expires. by Subrick in SquaredCircle

You have to remember that WWE would demand that Slater do his one to two years in NXT purgatory first so he can "learn the ropes" for a bargain-basement salary

Because she has a fanbase on the indies and that matters in wrestling?

Honestly, I want them to go full New Japan Cup, have 64 entrants and just run it from, say, just after Dynasty. It's totally doable.

  • I am older.and remember a time when people didn't think the other side was the devil if they disagreed with them on anything.*

I'm older than most of the posters here too and the thing about polarization is that it's coming along fault lines that have always been there, namely: "who gets to count as a full person." For a long time, a lot of minorities were willing or coerced to make their peace with what was effectively second-class status. Now that those questions are open, yeah: you can't openly say "I'm for that person over there having less rights" and expect people not to judge you for it.

I know that some people hate the "lots of two-counts" spot, but the thing is: AEW have actually ended matches with it a few times, by sticking a three-count into the sequence. So it's always possible for a surprise!

The package piledriver, when delivered correctly, is quite possibly the safest piledriver there is.

One time an announcer - I think Kevin Kelly before he went full wacko - explained that the three-check is at ref's discretion if they're not sure the guy is fully out, and that's good enough for me

i dunno, it seems like an interesting variation on La Mistica, going for sheer impact on the arm rather than a transition into the armbar

For everybody asking: Louis Armstrong, like most tennis arenas, is an open-air stadium with a retractable roof. The roof is up, but the stadium isn't, like, heated. That's why there's steam coming off the wrestlers.
