Knuckledragger Posted June 7, 2023 Report Posted June 7, 2023 As someone who grew up on 80s wrestling, I recognized early how important a good heel was to any narrative. Clown ass Hulk Hogan owes a huge amount of his success to wrestlers like the Sheik and Andre the Giant. 6 Quote
skullguise Posted June 8, 2023 Report Posted June 8, 2023 I remember him! There was also a movie/documentary about him IIRC....he was a genuine wrestler from Iran, and a true strong man. RIP.... Quote
Voltron Posted June 8, 2023 Report Posted June 8, 2023 I haven't watched this stuff since Big Time Wrestling when I was a kid, but I know the Iron Sheik as a guest on Howard Stern, you bunch of jabronies! *NSFW or most other places. Quote
skullguise Posted June 8, 2023 Report Posted June 8, 2023 Please forgive me if I don't feel bad..... Quote
swt61 Posted June 8, 2023 Report Posted June 8, 2023 The jokes on him, because I'm 99% sure that he didn't end up where he thought he would. Right this way Pat, we've been expecting you. Quote

mikeymad Posted June 8, 2023 Report Posted June 8, 2023 Wow - that makes me really sad. He was the soundtrack for a portion of my life. More listening to do for reasons... Quote
swt61 Posted June 8, 2023 Report Posted June 8, 2023 R.I.P. George Winston. But I'm not done with Pat Robertson yet. May El Diablo's giant barbed penis plunder your anal cavity for eternity. Let's not pretend that it's virginal though. No doubt you've experienced more than one parishioner's cock inside it. Possibly a fist or two as well. I'm very familiar at decoding those grimaces. 1 1 Quote

swt61 Posted June 11, 2023 Report Posted June 11, 2023 The only thought that comes to my mind is, good, we don't have to pay to house him anymore. I do feel bad for his Brother, who seems like a pretty decent human being. 1 Quote

Torpedo Posted June 12, 2023 Report Posted June 12, 2023 I know you're joking, but I get the glove His contribution to Italian, hence EU politics has been as toxic and damaging as Trump's to USA's. And don't forget that this fella preceded Trump for a couple of decades. He demonstrated to other democratic countries that being a rich jerk making politics to get richer and more powerful is feasible and acceptable to the population, as early as 1994. I wonder if we'll get to know how much he contributed to Putin and vice versa. He's one of the main accountables of the come back of fascism in developed democracies. And all that leaving aside his connections to the Italian Mafia. What a POS. 5 Quote

TMoney Posted June 13, 2023 Report Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) Amazing author. I am a fan. Blood Meridian is my college roommate's favorite book. RIP. Edited June 13, 2023 by TMoney Quote
blessingx Posted June 13, 2023 Report Posted June 13, 2023 The Road was the last book I read entirely in one night. I described to pregnant Melissa how it felt to read as a soon to be father and she decided to take a look and stayed up the next night and did the same. Quote
Knuckledragger Posted June 20, 2023 Report Posted June 20, 2023 This is more "Burn in Hell" than RIP, but it is noteworthy: NH Nazi Leader Dead Day After Teatotaller Incident in Concord. Quote While not taking part in violent, racist terrorism, Cullinan worked as an HVAC technician in Manchester, according to the report. Now there's a line. There's a zoomer meme that's appropriate here. 3 Quote
