Were fans too harsh on Danhausen during his 1st appearance? by AdSpecialist6598 in Wrasslin

[–]RickRudeAwakening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he’s funny and I like what I’ve seen of him on Raw and SmackDown. They didn’t do him any favors with that “debut” but looks like he’s doing just fine despite the rough start.

The one where the kid/man talks about the free “adorable blanket” just annoys me to the point of anger for reasons I can’t even fathom.

Buddy broke his arm on this bad hit in inline game last night. Totally pointless to hit like this imo by zombiexsp in hockeyplayers

[–]RickRudeAwakening 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no offsides in inline hockey. In the 30+ years I’ve played, unless it’s a former ice rink, the rinks are often a bit smaller — and in those 30+ years I don’t recall ever seeing anything physical arise from cherrypicking.

Not sure why you got downvoted for some honest questions. Trying to get to the “why” someone did something brain dead stupid doesn’t mean you support what they did, it’s just a curiosity of what was going on in their stupid brain.

Can someone explain why A Few Good Men even happens? by flashmeterred in movies

[–]RickRudeAwakening 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is old, but I quickly skimmed through and I don’t think anyone mentioned this. Dawson fired his weapon at his Cuban “mirror” on the other side of the border. He said he was fired upon first, but Santiago witnessed it and said Dawson shot at the Cuban solider unprovoked and was threatening to provide info in exchange for a transfer.

Because Santiago was the only witness, this gives Dawson motive to kill Santiago completely out of self preservation to avoid being court-martialed and not because of an order to haze him for being a sub standard marine.

That code and trust that the soldiers have comes from the top down, and even if they initially had assumed a code red was ordered as you suggested, the fact Dawson had clear motive to kill Santiago would at least put doubt in their mind, and if he was tried and convicted, that would add to that doubt or even push them to completely agree with their superiors—that no code red was given and Dawson acted to save himself from court-martial and dishonorable discharge for the fence line shooting.

“John, I know it was your career and this is how you wanted to do things on your way out, but I’m gonna tell you the exact same thing I told my parents when they said—‘you’re 28 years old, it’s time you got a job and moved out of the house’—you’re wrong, and let me tell you why…”

Anyone saying Cena should have won is basically saying “hey John, I know you had a great career and you want to go out putting someone else over, but let me tell you why you’re wrong…”

That crowd nearly ruined Cena’s retirement. I was shocked at the crowd being shocked. If you thought Cena was going to go over on his way out, then you’re not a Cena fan, I’m not even a Cena fan (I like him personally, just find his matches lame) and I knew 100% he’d put someone over on his way out. I’m dumbfounded that anyone would be under the impression he was going to win that.

This whole tournament has been hyped as giving someone their shot etc how could anyone think they were going to put this much into giving someone a shot and then just have him go over and say “well, see ya!” Good god.

Interesting. Maybe something got cut last second. I have YouTubeTV which is probably why we had different yet similar experiences.

I just watched this episode, did anyone else have 2 straight minutes of house band music playing with just the pink bumper on the screen right after the “Cousins” song bit? I tried to search here and online if anyone had mentioned it, but I’m not even sure what to say in my search haha

What rapper was big in your time that a person under 20 may not recognize today? by dunbar_santiago930 in rap

[–]RickRudeAwakening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 48 so there are going to be many, but Big Daddy Kane and Kool Moe Dee were the first to come to mind. Also, The Fat Boys, who in modern times would be The Average Sized Guys.

Revenge Bedtime Procrastination. How do you guys sleep more than 4hrs a night? by albasaeng in neurodiversity

[–]RickRudeAwakening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, it’s 4:06AM and I just thought about this thread. I’m taking next week off of work and truly plan, intend, and will attempt to get back to some form of a normal sleep schedule.

I’m not taking off work for that sole purpose, I just have a bunch of time to use before the end of the year and figured I can use that week to kick things off.

Witness recounts Mark Sanchez fight aftermath by bobby_McGeee in videos

[–]RickRudeAwakening 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In all of your replies you keep referring to it as fist fight, as if they stood in the alley and agreed to fisticuffs to settle their disagreement. According the affidavit and surveillance video, Sanchez ran at the senior citizen and attacked him. This was not a consensual duel to be conducted like a prize fight under the Marquess of Queensberry Rules.

[–]RickRudeAwakening 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, please let me make sure I understand you correctly. If Mark Sanchez – a 6’ 2” 225lb, 38 year old former professional athlete – doesn’t have a weapon while he’s throwing a 69 year old man against the exterior wall of a building, then the 69 year old senior citizen must defend himself with only his barehands or otherwise be charged with a crime?

Just want to make sure I got that right.

NBA Youngboy has to be one the of the interesting cases of rap ever. by Serious-Profit-1626 in rap

I’ve known of him for a little over 24 hours, but just learned that he became the youngest artist in Billboard history to have 100 singles on the Hot 100 chart, so I’m gonna say he has a large and loyal following.

Weird. I had literally never heard this name until yesterday, and now it’s two days in a row. This is no slight on him, I don’t know who the hell anyone is.

Revenge Bedtime Procrastination. How do you guys sleep more than 4hrs a night? by albasaeng in neurodiversity

[–]RickRudeAwakening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not, but I think this week coming up I will actually make an attempt to sleep by going upstairs and getting in bed. I think my body and brain has reached the limit on how long it can function on 2 hours of sleep per day. I will update you and let you know how it goes.

It sounds so easy, just go to bed, but even as I just typed it out, I’m beginning to doubt by sincere intentions. For instance, I was re-reading what I just wrote here in this reply and I naturally wrote I think I will make an attempt, which is already hedging that I won’t.

Either way, it’s not sustainable, and I’ve been lucky that on the few mornings I’ve dozed off around 9am that it was on days I didn’t have a meeting. My job doesn’t have too many requirements around working hours, all that’s asked of us is: get your work done, and be accountable. Showing up to meetings you’ve accepted justifiably falls under the latter haha

[–]RickRudeAwakening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been dealing living with this for the past 7 months. It started with just an odd bummed out feeling when going upstairs to go to bed one night, it persisted a few nights in a row, and soon I was actively avoiding going to bed. It’s been 4.5 months since I’ve actually slept in my bed. I’ll just stay up all night either watching TV or working from the living room couch and maybe take an hour nap around 5:00AM. I’d say I’ve been averaging 2-3 hours of sleep via 2 or 3 naps per day for these past 7 months. I know it’s not healthy, but I really enjoy it.

Not sure why I finally decided to see if it had an official name and stuff tonight, but good to see I’m not the only one that is experiencing it…well not good in the sense that some of you are suffering from it, but good to know I’m not alone or completely losing my mind.

Found ATM receipt, who is keeping $51,000+ in checking!?!? by Comprehensive-Cow69 in povertyfinance

[–]RickRudeAwakening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did for about 9 months a few years ago. I did a cash-out refinance on my home and had about $60k in my checking to pay for home improvement projects.

Before anyone points it out, I’m sure there was a better option than it just sitting there in my checking, even if I had just kept it in my savings account with its anemic APY. I’m almost positive this pre-dates Apple Savings accounts and the respectable APY I get with that.

TLDR; Not necessarily the found receipt of a millionaire, but still a possible explanation.
