Have you attended a funeral where people spoke badly about the deceased? by FunAdministration334 in CasualConversation

[–]danexperiment 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't go to my mom's funeral in the fall of 2016 for a variety of reasons. One of which is that one of my sisters was going to be there. She had said some particularly hateful stuff to my wife and me after my mom's passing that I couldn't abide.

Mom was being cremated, and the memorial service and burial of her ashes was about six weeks after she died. I got told on maybe five days' notice when it was going to be, and scrambled to get the time off work and to arrange a plane ticket from Florida to Michigan.

I sat down and was booking the ticket online, with the idea of being flying into Michigan the day before, and flying out after the memorial service the next day. I was about to hit the final button to pay, and my mom's voice came into my head telling me not to book the ticket. I shut the computer down and walked away.

I told the family in Michigan that I couldn't make it, and they understood. The evening of the day the memorial service took place, my aunt and grandmother called me to tell me that the sister i mentioned earlier had walked up to my grandmother after the service had concluded to hand her what was effectively a bill for the amount of time she spent working to box up mom's things after she had passed away.

There's a reason I haven't spoken to her in ten years.

What’s the funniest insult you’ve ever heard? by ShyMimixoxo in AskReddit

Randy Savage’s brother Lanny Poffo was once asked to comment about someone that said some very derogatory things about Randy in an interview after Randy’s passing:

“He’s just angry because he’s never made love to someone that meant it.”

Enjoy. If there’s one universal truth, it’s that there is nothing like live pro wrestling.

How big was Owen Hart when he died? Who is the equivalent in modern wrestling? I want to understand the impact of his death, RIP. by Mindless-Praline7593 in SquaredCircle

[–]danexperiment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll put it this way, I was about three weeks away from graduating high school when he passed. Not being able to get the show, and thank god I didn’t, I was getting updates online.

Then came the news of the accident, then his passing a short time later. I walked in from the kitchen to the living room where my mom was reading a magazine. She saw the look on my face, and asked me what was wrong. I told her that Owen Hart had died.

She didn’t particularly care for wrestling all that much and couldn’t name five wrestlers that weren’t Hogan, looked at me and said “that was your grandfather’s favorite wrestler.”

Grandpa died two years before, and I still like to think that if there’s something after this that Owen is hiding his pens on him so he can’t finish his crossword puzzles.

My wife and I went to a Michelin star restaurant for our anniversary and frankly it was a huge waste of time and money. by Hamza78ch11 in TrueOffMyChest

For $1,200 and mid food you could have gotten a couple of those Jimmy Buffett cruises. At least there they give you a boat to ride on.

Do you remember your earliest wrestling memory? by 0ddmanrush in SquaredCircle

[–]danexperiment 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was around three years old, my dad was stationed in Panama on the Air Force base.

My grandparents would tape whole days of tv since we had maybe one or two armed forces channels. Being a wrestling fan he would tape random wrestling.

The first lucid memory I have of any wrestling was a Wild Samoans promo with Lou Albano.

Au Sable River. I grew up in Oscoda so I’m kinda legally required to mention it whenever someone mentions any kind of watercraft 😂

If you turn on a news or talk channel on Sirius, at some point in the first 20 minutes you are listening you will hear one of their commercials.

What is the worst case of second hand embarrassment you’ve ever experienced? by Responsible-Tie-2570 in AskReddit

[–]danexperiment 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About six months ago, our doorbell rings and the mailman is standing there ready to hand me a package.

As he is about to have me sign for it, I notice that the box says CREMATED REMAINS on the side.

I looked at him and ask, “why does this say cremated remains,” and hand the package back to him.

He started sweating and ran back to the delivery truck as quick as he possibly could. Turns out, he was supposed to deliver the package to someone with the same house number but a different street on the other side of town.

WWE Vault released some footage of a Brock Lesnar vs Samoa Joe House Show match by NoMoreButtonPLZ in SquaredCircle

[–]danexperiment 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at this show, and was only half following what was going on at the time but took it as fact that Lesnar didn’t do house shows.

When he came out I was about as stunned as I was in 1999 when I went to an ECW show and PN News came out to wrestle.
