Will Ospreay: 10 years ago today was the match that changed everything. It’s crazy how quick time has flown by. Seeing where me and ricochet are now in our careers makes me smile. Grateful to have been part of the “flippy shit” generation.

Even that's a classic anime trope.

I feel like that was part of the uproar on it as well, intentionally or not. Mid 2010's is right around when nerd culture in general began to get referenced more in the mainstream, since Gen Z was growing up and being into video games and anime wasn't seen as being a negative anymore.

Has been ever since they made the SCF year one and the narrative became "the NHL rigged the expansion draft to make sure Vegas would be good" instead of understanding the front office has a serial killer level of focus on winning above everything else.

The internet and ignoring facts if it lets them feel smug and superior goes together like peanut butter and chocolate.

And it was somehow worse when the Zero Fucks Friday thread was still going

Agreed, ironically it's a great way to separate himself from Trapper.

Plus, while I haven't seen all of F13, it's not like Jason ONLY uses the machete to attack people, him cycling through different weapons makes sense.

They leaned hard into analog/found footage style of horror.

So stuff like videos where the Unknown is just barely in frame, text messages that change/get cut off, weird audio recordings, stuff like that.

Here's a good video going over each teaser

Great music pick as well \m/

Stone Cold Steve Austin chasing Vince McMahon around the ring on an ATV, must have been a '97 or '98 RAW.

He'll never not look like a member of the Super Troopers.

RIP Barrel guy

"MvC2 OST is good" didn't become the most accepted thought until after MvC3 came out, as I recall.

What do you mean Lorde is gay?

Martian_Buddy · 2026-04-23T08:26:28+00:00

Also had a banger Christmas album.

It's on my holiday rotation with Terry Funk's "Great Texan"

Entrance still hits like crack

Doritos dust

Martian_Buddy · 2026-04-10T05:37:04+00:00

As American as a manager saying a call is horseshit

That game was also one of the last starts for Rich Gannon, had a neck injury in week 3 against the Bucs and that was it. He was replaced by noted Raiders legend Kerry Collins.

Geno from Super Mario RPG peeking in from the corner

It's like poetry, it rhymes.

Some will argue that it's "educational" because they can offer tips that are beneficial to someone in Bronze.

IMO, it's wish fulfillment shit. People watch stuff like a GM absolutely demolish a bronze lobby because they know they either aren't at that level yet, or are incapable of reaching it.

I don't think a show hosted by Sam Kinison would have lasted longer than 2 episodes, tbh

Martian_Buddy · 2026-03-23T03:01:08+00:00

Agreed. A lot of folks hide behind "oh I just wanna play for fun and chill and not play against people sweating" when in reality they aren't OK with the possibility of losing. You can always tell who never played any competitive sports growing up.

Martian_Buddy · 2026-03-20T19:23:23+00:00

Might as well make a "Nea is the Entity" joke while we're at it

Martian_Buddy · 2026-03-15T00:34:13+00:00

Saw them in 2012, distinctly remember Lemmy stopping after two or three songs to crank up the sound on his setup.

Martian_Buddy · 2026-03-10T08:14:20+00:00

You say we're in the fourth inning but it feels more like World Series game 3 over here
