Dom, I've never been in one of these before. Can you move me down a few spots so I can get the feel for how it works?

redbuck; It's pretty easy, just do a write up of something you really dislike. Since I'm #2, I'm willing to do the first one and go back to normal order, so you have an example.

Fine by me...DaveT is up

Round #1 (first pick of the draft!)

Wild Card



Marijuana

Obviously I never actually did this because that's illegal in most areas of the planet, but if I had smoked the funky weed, I would tell you that this is my main experience with it:

Light up with 2 other people, sit in the middle.

Take it from one person, take a hit, pass, pass back to me, hit, pass. If it isn't clear, I always end up smoking twice the weed as whoever I'm with.

At some point, they are totally flying and I'm wondering what the **** it is going on with them. Is this real? Not to say that I've never been high (legally, I haven't), but If I do get high, it maybe lasts 15 minutes and I end up with a massive headache, which isn't all that odd since I haven't inhaled oxygen for the past 3 hours!

People actually sit around, roll up a joint, choke choke choke, then do what exactly? They get high.

***

Medical Marijuana is a total ****ing con job, sorry. If you don't have glaucoma, then you are just getting high, and you know now what? I would LOVE it if the pot heads would just say it outright, and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone on this.

"It's natural" they say! Yeah, Chemo is made from Yew tree, which happens to be very much natural, poisonous as ****, and does a pretty good of doing real work on cancer. It's also on the extinction list, but no one's saying "Save the Yew trees!"

Hey, I'm far from an anti-drug person and I would like to see all drugs be legalized and regulated, but this whole weed thing is a such a pile of bull **** that, ugh... like why? If you are really in California and can't convince the voting public to let you get high, the problem isn't educating the public on the "benefits" of smoking weed.

daveT picks so far.
marijuana

Spreadsheet is set to view only.

lol at that pick

think you could have waited until round 10 for that one. No worries about being sniped

My strategy for these drafts is come out strong.

Since redbuck passed and I'm feeling hateful, I'm going to go ahead and select:

For the category of Movies I'm going to pick



First let me start off by saying that there are much worse movies out there than this, but to me the hate in this thread is measured relative to what the rest of society thinks. The vibe I get is that many people think the movie is perhaps poorly made with some plot holes, but overall good fun and to be watched whenever you catch it on TV.

I hate Commando. Who would have thought that a movie with so much action and killing could be so boring. Big muscles and a hand held rocket launcher, which let's face it is just a penis extension, is not a valid substitute for plot, tension, dialogue, acting, editing or direction. Let's also not forget that the huge tree trunk that he's carrying earlier on is meant to be clever foreshadowing.

Nothing is original in the movie. You have your main good guy who has big muscles and your main bad guy who also has big muscles but he has a dodgy mustache to indicate that he's bad. There is also the sneaky little guy with the Napoleon complex. Even the kill scenes are not original. The same guy get's shown being killed about 5 times. You can just imagine the 'director' during that scene: "Ok, Arnold, you stand there in the open. Don't bother to use any cover, or move about too much, or wear any body armour, or even a top. The rest of you guys I want you to spin around a few times, scream and jump to the floor."

Also there's the scene where he jumps from the plane. It's pretty high up, at least the size of a multistory building. No parachute, and he lands feet first in some knee high water. Gets up and carries on his merry way immediately.



The ending kill scene is awful. Just awful. I don't even want to talk about it. Just watch:


But as I watched it, the number 1 thing that pissed me off was something really small. Arnold steals the little guy's car and doesn't have to adjust the seat! I mean WTF!!?

Awful movie. How anyone can like is beyond me.

Nut coming out strong. I like how that doesn't even require much writing to justify the pick.

For Commando... Feel like that was written for nearly every Arnie movie, hahaha.

ROUND 1

Wild Card

The Chicago Cubs



I totally despise the dreaded Cubs. Last October was particularly painful. The "lovable losers" finally won after 108 years of futility. But this changes nothing as the are still LOSERS.

It's mostly a Chicago thing. Growing up in the 60's on the south side everybody was a White Sox fan. The White Sox were Chicago's baseball team. The Cubs were a joke. They would draw about 5000 people per game and typically finished in the second division (what they called the bottom teams in those days).

But things changed? Cable TV arrived in the 80's and WGN which carried all Cubs games was being broadcast coast to coast. The lowly Cubs started amassing a national audience and fans. they became incredibly popular from this. They still sucked but people were starting to care.

Over the years my hatred for the team has softened. Now I mostly hate their ignorant fans but even more than that I hate they way they are portrayed in the local media which is more obsessed with them than CNN and MSNBC are with President Trump.

So far:
The Chicago Cubs

Japan



That's right, I'm hating on the entire country. It's the weirdest goddamn culture on the planet. Japan's national cuisine is uncooked fish that sometimes poisons people, its national sport is two morbidly obese guys in diapers wrestling each other. Babymetal, kaiju movies, used panties sold out of vending machines... I could go all day at all the crazy **** that Japan is up to. And dint even get me started on anime

Japan, WTF. Just stop. You're at a 10 with the weird ****, we need you at more like a 7.

Guys, make sure you say which category you are picking in. When I get home, I will make sure the spreadsheet is open for everyone out

I guess mine was a wildcard.

IRT to Japan, you have to admit that you'd want to see this in your restaurant. If I had the money, I swear I'd open one up somewhere.

okay, anyone can now edit the spreadsheet

I would rather die. But Japan is a lol pick. I love Japan!

Love the Facebook pick and the marijuana pick, too.

redbuck are you going to make a pick, or what?

I think someone forgot to talk about time limits and skipping. Who's up right now?

SONG;
The worst song in the history of music is "Honey" by Bobby Goldsboro. I know some of you younger guys have probably never had that flaming heap of horse**** enter your ears like the sound of Edward Scissorhand scrapping on a chalk board for 8 hours, and
since I can't use youtube to share this abortion with you, and I don't want that bucket of elephant jizz showing up in my history, you'll have to take my word for it...............

here ya go redbuck:



Under my moniker.

I think this draft might even become the best ever. Very well done so far.

Subscribed.

uh, no someone did not

herbdizzle has been skipped - slamdunkpro is on the clock! Guys, please don't forget to the PM the next guy on the list.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off - Movie

I hate this unadulterated pile of crap on a personal level. Ferris Bueller is nothing more than an opportunistic user of friends and family. Yeah OK it's an 80's "feel good" movie but he's the "hero" who solely succeeds on the backs, shoulders and good will of others. He abuses his family and most of all his best "friend" (read gullible tool) to the max and skates every time. He violates Cameron's trust and in the process gets Cameron to destroy his Dad's Ferrari with no consequences to himself.

I grew up with too many people like that.

Nice
