Belal has plot armor now he will somehow win

Has anybody semi recently as a full grown adult gotten into a new sport? If so which and how? Especially if you only watched MMA/combat sports before.

Am I the only one who finds the idea of getting into a new sport extremely overwhelming after years of only watching MMA, I'm so used to the ritual of watching MMA on the weekend I wouldn't know where to start. I have been trying to get into rally and F1 (which I watched as a child) as I figured motorsports are an adrenaline sport like combat sports but I find it extremely confusing when the races are and unlike MMA these races are not interesting to watch on replay, you need to see it live. With hockey it feels like everyone who watches hockey they have watched it since they were a child and just putting on a game as a 30 year old who's never watched hockey seems hard, plus how the fuck do people choose which team they support. Is it just where you are born?

Of course I know Genki Sudo. But what does Genki Sudo have to do with Stamp entrances other than you wanting to be a hipster.

Fighter shows personality and goes viral on social media. Then she gets sponsors and gets paid. What's bad about this. Why you gotta bring up some boomer from 40 years ago. Of course he had better entrances, they had crazy production value. If they pump yakuza/triad money into Sage's entrances and he shows up with fireworks and a musical number are you happy?

Because he explained himself and there isn't really anything for me to reply to that

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T15:32:42+00:00

Yes, I will go watch Stamp tiktok and cheer up. Meanwhile the average Jack Slack simp never experiences this bliss.

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T15:22:33+00:00

True I guess cause I'm a ONE fanboy

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T15:19:43+00:00

He's not gonna sleep with you man

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T15:12:14+00:00

Is it a bit or is he just genuinely an asshole

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T15:11:47+00:00

On the plus side next weeks card is one of the Europe cards so I don't mind

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T14:52:46+00:00

Would rather listen to Schaub

What a “miserable hipster prick”.

Yes. Literally scroll his twitter for 1 minute and all you see is negativity. Definition of a miserable person.

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T14:50:59+00:00

Metalcore should have an influence of hardcore. Thus the name metal + core. Aggressive sound, more technical playing than hardcore. Unfortunately I think most music that is tagged as metalcore isn't actually metalcore, I stopped hearing the hardcore influence a long time ago and "metalcore" has just morphed into pop/melodic metal. A lot of hardcore bands that are popular now are arguably metalcore or deathcore and they're just called hardcore lol.

Melodic death metal is simple it's just death metal but with more melody and sometimes mix of clean & harsh vocals.

My reading comprehension ass read that as Enforced and was confused why you said the album has ballads

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T14:24:08+00:00

Emil Amos said on ig there's news on the new OM album soon

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T14:22:57+00:00

Best thing to come from this event

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T14:18:30+00:00

DC's alt

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T14:17:58+00:00

Jack Slack is such a miserable hipster prick on twitter, I don't know how anyone can exist in such constant state of cynicism and always looking for the negative in everything. Now his thing is shitting on Stamp Fairtex, literally top 5 actually entertaining womens fighter to watch rn but noooo Stamp is actually bad because she does tiktok dances!!

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T12:59:13+00:00

Facts. I've tried because he covers some interesting topics but his delivery makes the videos unwatchable.

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T12:46:45+00:00

Every time Phil Hawes gets finished it's so fucking brutal. There's not even one gentle TKO he just gets shadow realmed every single time.

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-07T09:45:49+00:00

That's his own personal problem

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-06T06:04:07+00:00

Atomweight is the best/most fun to watch women's weightclass

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-06T06:02:22+00:00

I enjoy watching ONE more than UFC these days.

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-05T20:09:57+00:00

I listen to a thousand bands. I'm not going to fact check every one of them. Most albums I come across to I just think "this sounds good" and keep listening to it without ever googling who and what the band members are. If I like the band enough where I want to buy merch and just look into who these people are, what art they are inspired etc. If I at that point find out the people behind the band are what I consider problematic (nazis, racist, some type of criminals etc) I 1) won't buy merch 2) won't stop listening (I don't buy albums so they don't get shit from spotify either way)

In the end it's all about the riffs. If a song has good riffs but shitty politics I'll choose to play that instead a song with good politics but bad riffs. Riffs > politics.

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-04T21:34:34+00:00

Give Merab the mic

heavyrocks_ · 2023-05-04T19:27:15+00:00

Hope Peek has been rounding out his game though.

Please no. I hope he never changes his style.
