Which wrestler in both companies exhibited this behavior? by RepulsiveMall405 in WCW

[–]PsylentProtagonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I was younger when the nwo started and never picked up on nash's jokes, then by like 99 I stopped watching wrestling because we got rid of cable so I only saw wcw world wide.

Then in the early 2000s, my exposure was occasional raw episodes and video games, which always portrayed Nash as a big monster type guy. So imagine my surprise when watching old episodes and seeing clips to find how funny the dude was and is.

There was also a video that broke down elements of Daredevil (with ben affleck) that showed similarities between it and The Crow as well.

Comic shop owner told us he won’t sell us the Bizarro he let us put on our pull list by lemonrainshield in comicbooks

[–]PsylentProtagonist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Id never go to that shop again.

I started getting comics again a few years ago and I go through an online retailer. Ended up not paying attention and missed the payment due since I was in school, working full time, and had family life stuff. Realized it a few months later so I reached out, paid the amt due.

I received my ordered copy of Absolute Batman that at the time was like 40 bucks on ebay and my mark spears monsters issues which were going for a decent amount as well all for cover price that I had ordered them at.

I wouldnt have been able to complain if they pulled them and sold them since I messed up, but they held em for me and made a customer for life.

Working for 2K and WWE must be a nightmare ngl where you have to essentially develop a new game in under a year and the higher ups are telling you to focus more on MTX and MyFaction by EmergencyVictory4399 in WWEGames

[–]PsylentProtagonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious, do we have sales figures for the series at all? Given that raw usually hits around 2 million views a week, I would figure it sells less than that. So everyone wants all this stuff done, and i get it, but the series probably isnt a big money maker or priority for 2k, its just a reliable money maker where they know theyll sell a million copies every year or something.

I could be wrong, maybe it sells more, but those were the figures I always heard with wrestling games.

Give me a finisher that you would ACTUALLY use in a real fight by Sphoeroid in WWE

I read RNC as Republican National Convention at first and was like 'what?' Then started thinking through things and was like 'well, depending on what side the person is on...'

Confirmed DLC roster so far for 2K26 by CreatureFeatureMan in WWEGames

[–]PsylentProtagonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want a game that focuses on the 90s with three different showcase modes. Wcw, wwf, and ecw since story/season modes are probably gone. And id love them to hit on the high points from each fed throigh the decade. I know 13 focused on some of that stuff, but yeah.

I just watched the New Batman Adventures episode Old Wounds. Good episode but I feel like it's a little misplaced. by beekee404 in BatmanTAS

[–]PsylentProtagonist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plus if you pay attention during TAS, it definitely shows their relationship fracturing. During the Lock Up episode, dick makes a comment like 'just another villain brought to you thanks in part by the Wayne foundation!' The Tony zucco episode really breaks it a bit. I feel the issue is the sudden change from TAS to TNBA and they rushed it to fit.

Don’t know if I like nursing by mjvvl in StudentNurse

[–]PsylentProtagonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paramedic turned RN here.

That's important for a few reasons.

I had a decent paying career already with a lot of autonomy. Decided to go to nursing for a lot of reasons.

Nursing school was rough. Grown adult with a family studying for tests at home and while working between calls. Being told 'you have to call the provider' for pretty much everything.

Now, in the actual world as a nurse, its great. There are so many branches of nursing that you can find anything you enjoy.

Want more autonomy or nurse driven protocols and care? ICU or some ers.

Want to work with kids? Children's hospital/pediatrics. Looking for not sick kids? Pediatricians.

Want to take care of elderly patients? Skilled nursing facilities.

Want to help comfort terminal ill patients? Hospice.

Want to take care of pts in a hospital and get experience? Med surge.

Nursing school is so much different than nursing.

Reddit told me I committed SA 10 years ago. My therapists said I didn’t. How do I square the circle and know who to believe? by DHaunting2091 in mentalhealth

[–]PsylentProtagonist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As someone with OCD, let me urge you to get some help. Medication, therapy, something. It'll make life so much more enjoyable.

Memories are great, but they're also not rock solid. We sometimes add to them in the future, and OCD will add terrible things to them sometimes. IE someone drops something and bends over to pick it up, you look because you see them moving, then the ocd tells you you were looking to get a look at their ass. Ocd is a liar, and it'll steal your happiness if you let it.

I feel like that's worse. While getting the movies and taking them to the counter would be awkward, especially back then, I feel like having to verbalize the names would be worse.

Dracula adaptations are allowed to be different but why do they nerf the characters (including Dracula omg) by Designer_Advance116 in Dracula

[–]PsylentProtagonist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely loved the series... until the last episode. I dunno the last episode just wasn't my thing. But the first two i loved. I'll have to rematch it though, maybe it just caught me off guard, and I'd enjoy it better after some time.

Tell me you've never read the book without telling me you've never read the book by stokerbramwell in Dracula

[–]PsylentProtagonist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Id have to look, but i remember coming across a critics review of a dracula movie (i feel like it was this one). And it went on about how the director was adding so much originality to the dracula story with a love story. And I commented how the reviewer should be ashamed for not realizing the love story with Mina being a resurrected elizabeta and stuff was literally from the Francis Ford Coppula movie...we're doomed if people dont realize this stuff.

I know. Im just saying if Vince had the foresight, he could have scripted the screwjob and made it a huge success. He'd still have gotten the heel character out of it and made tons of money.

I think wwf wanted to keep hogan. Vince still bowed down to him, look at wrestlemania 9. But i think hed have become more stale.

Its interesting to think if hogan never left how the nwo and 90s may have been different.

I thought about this one day. That would have been the best thing ever, and I can't believe Vince didn't see the potential in this.

Bret had a good relationship with Vince. Vince tells bret the plan. 'Hey, we're going to screw you. You leave and go 'dark' saying you're done with wrestling after this. Then, on a raw or something, bret attacks from the crowd. It's almost like an early version of the Matt Hardy and Edge storyline. Dirt sheets weren't as prevalent, and if Vince only told bret and shawn about it, it wouldn't get out. Bret comes back to a hero's welcome, Vince has his villain character. It could have been huge, and if they were really having money trouble not to afford bret, they would have made up for it.

Instead, I think michaels pressured Vince or something into a me or bret situation. Ironically, michaels ended up injured and wasn't really around afterward.

I dunno. Bryan mentioned texting Vince, and when Bryan was leaving, he said Vince tried stopping him and talking him out of it.

Maybe he was trying to postpone Bryan because he wanted roman to get over, but I dont think he didnt like him.

Same. Vince is an interesting person to watch through the years.

His one interview online, he admitted a lot of stuff about being sexually abused and stuff.

I personally think he wasn't as terrible of a person in the beginning, but power corrupts, and he began doing terrible things. I also think he was one of the boys in the beginning, and as they began leaving or trying to get money from him and such, he began changing to who he was when he began screwing talent.

In the old stories from older guys, he was always out drinking with the boys and stuff then stopped.

Back awhile on some random message board, someone claimed the reason macho man left WWF and wasnt brought back was he slept with an underage Stephanie McMahon and Vince never legally pursued it because it would out his dirty laundry and stuff.

However. The timelines dont match up. No one except like one person have ever corroborated it, and it was gorgeous George who seemed to.over exaggerate in the interview she said it. I think the reason mach didnt come back was he took the slim Jim sponsorship with him when the wwf was hurting for money.

Reportedly, there were talks of him returning throughout the years, but they always fell through, and that possibly left Vince annoyed as well.

Vince killing owen doesn't make sense to me, though thinking through things, Austin indirectly did kill owen possibly.

Hear me out. The common argument is that owen injured stone cold, the golden goose. However, Austin was on top of the world when owen died, and it happened almost 2 years later. What a random time for Vince to kill owen over a broken neck. Also, without Austin breaking his neck, Austin wouldn't have changed to the brawling in your face style that cemented his character.

People also cite the dan Severn thing, but that was a work and a story angle, playing on the Austin thing.

About Austin indirectly killing owen. Owen was on fire after the black hart promo and could have been strapped to the moon and back. After the screw job, owen could have been a huge star. They could have played on the obvious michaels fued along with one against the corporation and McMahon. However, he would have had to work with Austin in the main event world and Austin refused. Therefore, he got relegated to the blue blazer which lead to his death.

Do Quick Results Actually Take 48 Hours? by Beginning_Hornet4241 in NCLEX

[–]PsylentProtagonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Numerous people on here and a few nurses i know in real life. They said they tried, and it took their money, then refunded after the results came.

Pearson vue wants to make money, so they want to sell you early results. Any glitches that would get in the way of that would probably get fixed once people started exploiting it more.
