    -

    memory is dangerous. i try not to have any of those.
  4. no. actually I only put clothes on for a picture. that's why I look mean in all my pictures because I'm like "rrr FUCK YOU TAKETHEPICTURE" so I can go be naked some more.
  5. you can send him your dick, but don't send him the shot glass.
  6. surprised Warner hasn't shut that shit down.
  7. yeah I'm thinking it'll be the same for me, which is partially why I'm avoiding it atm. well that and poverty.
  8. saw the new one. best fucking show on television for a hundred years.
  9. I need to get w/KN and check on the server status. soon as we're on a bit more firmer ground, I'm going to start doing SEO stuff and whatever else. I'm still not sure exactly what I'm going to do, because - I'm not a huge fan of advertising, so I'm not big on "hey kids click this and come to our message board!" stuff.
  10. yeah I dunno. from what I'm hearing, it's mostly just Rogue and then in a few cases other x-asmbers pointing people in our direction.
  11. also unconfirmed fansite reports suggest that Nakamura is going to end up on the Smackdown roster. which, if it has to be one or the other, I'd rather see him go to Smackdown than Raw I guess.
  12. holy shit Nakamura/Roode is next! Roode had the spectacular entrance this time around with a piano overture and everything. The match was good. As Nakamura matches go, I think his matches with Roode aren't as good as his stuff with Sami Zayn, Samoa Joe, Finn Balor and others. I feel like Roode tends to slow things down, kind of like I mentioned earlier with WWE style being slower than NXT. I think Roode would be right at home on the WWE roster. Nakamura Roode picks up the win. That feels super anti-climactic to me. Especially after such a fantastic event. I would much rather have seen Nakamura pick up the win and Roode go to the main roster. Though I guess we'll see. I'm super skeptical that Raw or Smackdown creative will know what to do with a monster talent like Nakamura, who is as outside the box as they come both in terms of character and in-ring style. Roode on the other hand, I'm not sure - I suppose they'll brew up a feud with Kassius Ohno now or something. Maybe Aleister Black? Could be good, could be the start of a slow period for NXT. We'll have to see. here's the fans' sendoff for Nakamura from NXT, as he took what will probably be his final bows for the brand at Takeover.
  13. Ember Moon Vs Asuka wow you know, as usual - every single match so far has been amazing. Great back and forth in this one. Asuka picks up the win, which is good. There's still some Asuka matches I want to see in NXT before she moves up. Also, after I posted my prediction/comments before, I saw that she was actually on the NXT tour schedule, so - it was pretty clear she's sticking with NXT, not going to the main roster. This makes me happy. I used to be one of those people that was like "this person deserves to be called up to the main roster", but after seeing how the main roster makes mincemeat out of talented performers in favor of pushing the standard 2-3 names they've always pushed, I'm often actually almost more grateful to see performers stay in NXT.
  14. DIY (Ciampa and Garganno) Vs the Revival (Dash and Dawson) Vs Authors of Pain (w/Paul Ellering) DIY eliminated first, but match didn't go on too long after that. Authors Of Pain pick up the win. Much like the opening match, this was amazing. Lots of action, tons of spots. Authors of Pain did well I think, better than I expected for being in the ring with four of NXT's best. The only thing I would say criticism-wise is - with the tag titles, this doesn't really leave a lot of story possibilities moving forward from Takeover. But good match anyway.
  15. Andrade Cien Almas Vs Aleister Black. one of the things NXT excels at is intros. Black's debut entrance was pretty spectacular. another great match. Stuff you can't get in WWE from Raw or Smackdown. Very unusual styles that don't seem particularly tolerated by the WWE main-brain bookers, which is why I think NXT is a much more interesting and entertaining product than Raw or Smackdown right now. Gone are the standard spears, clotheslines, and RKO type maneuvers that seem to slow down the action rather than speed it up. The matches are fast paced, tell good stories, and decent length. WWE always seems to want to not only slow down their matches, but also trim them down time-wise, making for a lot of too short and too slow segments. It's great to see Almas getting something of a push, as previously he's been sort of buried on the roster. And Black is also a proven talent, these two are very well matched and are really great together. Black picked up the win, as expected. The difference between WWE and NXT, is - even when I can predict the outcome of a match, it's not because it's not a satisfying/entertaining match. It's because it makes sense in the ongoing story structure. This was good. Black and Almas both very solid.
  16. NXT Takeover: turns out, they did book Sanity vs Team 10 for Takeover. It was fucking amazing. Sanity (Erik Young, Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dane and Nikki Cross) Vs Tye Dillinger, Ruby Riot, Roderick Strong and turns out Kassius Ohno, who replaced No Way Jose who got jumped by Sanity earlier in the day at a Wrestlemania Access event. The match was incredible. Strong particularly stood out with some amazing spots. Ruby Riot and Nikki Cross had insane chemistry as well, Ohno was actually a great addition. Every single person in the match did top work, and it was just a madhouse all the way through with bodies everywhere and action in and out of the ring. Even so, it never got messy. The spots were well timed and well executed. Fantastic work. The match was so good, it really didn't matter who won, either way it flipped, it was gold. Turns out the win went to Sanity (which was probably good, as I said before, as far as teams go, they're kind of the one that needs the win story-wise I thought). Amazing start to Takeover.
  17. high point for me was DDP. He's a very good storyteller.
  18. nope. we actually had a few new signups last night even.
  19. At any rate I would say this year: mission accomplished Adult Swim. I have been completely not paying attention to the block more or less since the boards went down (except for Toonami) and this got me back to checking their YouTube and stuff. I'm like "holy shit On Cinema's started their new season" - they're like 3 eps in already and I didn't even notice. Also there's a bunch of pilots I never saw that aired in December that I want to catch up on now. Also new Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell this week.
  20. I believe, unless I am mistaken, this is actually the first year they've carried over the prank. Usually they do it on the night of the 31st at 12am when it clicks over to the 1st. And then the evening of the 1st the normal block just runs. I think this is the very first time they've actually carried it over to that 8-11:59pm section of the block on the 1st.
  21. guests are watching u. whut whut
  22. I still use it when I read a zeni thread.
