Wrestling OT/LC Thread: We'll Stop Talking About Star Wars Eventually - Page 265

There's also a thing where, when I don't like either team, I tend to prefer the road team just because I want the home fans to STFU.

Needless to say, I would never root for a home team at Full Sail.

It's okay. We had a good run. The good news is that we at least won enough games to save Coach McCarthy's job.

PJ,
I did read the first Game of Thrones book and enjoyed it. I guess I'll delve into the second one. It's getting a bit weird that I'm pouring this much time into trying to force myself to like something, but here we are.

When Jon Snow or Arya Stark were the subject of a chapter I would usually sigh and forge my way through, but most of the other characters interested me.

I feel the same way about Arya and Bran. Jon Snow gets a lot better but hes probably always going to be too brooding and emo for you

Oh yeah, Bran, he apparently sucked enough to be forgotten rather than being included on the suck list, but I didn't like him either. Seems like he got fewer chapters than the other two I named.

I could deal with Jon Snow being emo if he would have the decency to be interesting. I did watch far enough on the TV show to basically remember his plot with the Wildlings, but I don't remember liking that very much either.

I haven't read any of the books yet, and I recently binge watched the whole season, and the Bran scenes up until the last season were very painful to get through. At least in the last season it started to come together, but when it was tough sledding getting there. Same with Arya.

LKJ: Jimmy Rankin. Listen. Canadian artist who is most famous in Canada for his work with The Rankin Family, but as a solo artist has had a string of east coast inspired indy hits. Country-ish vibe. Let me know how that goes for you.

We'll Carry On, Midnight Angel, and probably Followed Her Around.

They're all on the album Song Dog. Probably his best album.

My verdict:

...about a half-step up from elevator music, I'm sorry to say.

I dislike that verdict, but I'm not in a position to do anything about it.

Well, my heart was pure; I sat and listened to all three in hopes of a better verdict. The first one was the best one, but I still wasn't really feeling it.

I just turned on the 90s iHeart Radio station only to immediately hear the Abercrombie and Fitch song. So of course I had to come here and post this.

I still laugh at the thought of Dan saying, "Wat, why is there a thread about this in the wrestling forum?"

Haven't seen it yet, but I hope it will be good.

Seen five of the other best picture nominees and been really disappointed so far.

When I saw Lady Gaga jump, I immediately thought "please don't die like Owen Hart."

Have hated those suspension wires ever since.

^^ My first thought when I saw that was "I think Shawn Michaels did it slightly better."
