  1. Mike Knox is gone as well. None all that shocking as per usual. Kinda weird to see Funaki on the list. I've expected it for years now, but he always seemed safe.
  2. Yesterday while on my lunch break at work, I go to the bathroom. Great start to the story, eh? So while I am in a stall an old man walks into the bathroom and tries to open the door to my stall. He then keeps asking if I work here. After I say nothing he leaves. Weird, but whatever, and I forgot about it. Until today when I was at work. This old man actually filed a complaint about it. His complaint was that the guy with long hair refused to give him a price check. So I have to explain to my new district manager, who just happened to be there, why I did not in fact help this guy. Explaining that I was sitting on a toilet took much longer than it should have. I was then told to not let it happen again. I then asked if I am expected to help a customer when I am on lunch & sitting on a toliet? She FINALLY understood what happened and then apologized for what happened. Now, why am I annoyed? When you submit a complaint; you might get a direct, personal response. This guy did not like the fact that employees are not expected to help while in the bathroom. He sent off another email, and now the regional manager wants to talk to me tomorrow.
  3. Edge is a nine time champion. I didn't realize that he has had that many title reigns. I guess that is what happens when you stop paying attention for a couple of years.
  4. I am really getting annoyed with my roommate for his stance of arguing to argue. Here is what he has argued at length after I make some innocent comment. Me: "Hey, Rob is coming to the bachelor party. And I was looking forward to winning the poker game." Him: Argued that poker is a game 100% luck and you cannot have skill in poker since it is 100% luck. Me: "I am glad baseball is back." Him: Argued that baseball is not fun to watch. Me: "Well, that is your opinion. I find it fun." Him: Argued for half an hour that my opinion was wrong. Me: "I like the new OK Go Rube Goldberg music video." Him: Argued that music videos ruined what music is supposed to be. I didn't say anything this time. I just ate a cookie that I bought from the bakery in the grocery store. He argued that the cookie was not as good as homemade cookies. Mind you, he wasn't the one eating the cookie. I just don't understand it. I am happy that he buggered off for the rest of the afternoon.

    Random fight tonight at Steak & Shake. My table is just sitting around talking when the huge party (15ish) get up to pay. They are all 16-20. Apparently, they looked at the drunk people (who had walked in five minutes prior) wrong. They big drunk guy got up and started to say stuff such as "when you are at a restaurant, you ignore the drunk people son" and "I could destroy you kid" and then sits down. The kids pay and leave after another one sided shouting match, with much profanity. Then, the entire drunk party runs outside and starts fighting two 16 year old kids. The cops get called and the drunk people speed off. About 20 minutes pass and my group goes to pay while the cops are getting the kids' statements. I make the joke that the drunk people went down a block to the Waffle House because they had not ordered food yet. So when we leave, we don't see them at the Waffle House. We saw them in the IHOP which was on the way to my friends house. We call Steak & Shake to inform the cops of this fact. They come over, wait for backup and now have four drunk assholes in custody. I must say is that this was most entertaining. When I call them drunk assholes, I say that because I know they are. They used to come into the bar I used to work at and had to leave for trying to start a fight. General personalities are that of assholes, but they are now going to jail. Which makes this such a happy story. Except for the 16 year old kids who have black eyes.
  6. I FUCKING hate when people argue about anything just to argue. I was just having an argument with my roommate about the nature of rooting for college sports teams. I say you root for who you want, and he says you can only root for the school you went to. Fine, whatever, standard banter. Then as he is leaving I say "Don't forget your cellphone" because he forgot it last night. This starts a one-sided argument about how since people back in the day didn't have cell phones there is not much use in them. Even if you are in a car crash, you can always walk to a pay phone or someone else will call the cops and thus a cell phone will not help. And to make a point he left his cell phone. What really makes this story is that he left his laptop and work keys on the table too. Since he doesn't have his cell phone, I cannot call him.
  7. I'll agree with Des. I never thought that having an iPod would change my life, but it did. It is always in my pocket even if I don't think I'll need it. The past three weeks waiting on a replacement part has been annoying.
  8. Did the Kofi run-in make sense in the main event, because I was only half watching.
  9. Kinda weird seeing him on WWE TV. And teaming him with The Miz might be a good thing after all.
  10. Looks like there will be a MITB match at Wrestlemania. Great news for all those involved.

    But does it have a giant stuffed Scoobie in the passenger seat? Cause my local Mystery Machine does.
  12. So, I am at work Sunday night. It is about 8PM and not really all that busy. Then I get a phone call. And they say: "Do you want play a game?" and hang up. Not only did I get that call, all the phone lines got the same call at the same time. Then people start to smell things burning. Cops get called and they find some kids setting the sales flier on fire in the bathroom. Huge lucky break that power had been turned of in the bathroom due to remodeling. Did I mention I hate Saw?
  13. Instead of being scheduled in my department at work today, I get to be the store monkey. No reason given. I haven't been the store monkey in well over three years. And with all the rednecks blowing their tax returns on useless crap, that store is going to be packed.
  14. So we have the option of a "Totally Not King of the Ring" tournamnet, or a bunch of gimmick PPVs. I just don't see the point of Hell in a Cell/Elimination Chamber PPVs. Use these matches rarely and it would draw more interest. That said, I have wanted a War Games match for years.
  15. Okay, simple request here. An argument has raged in my house for an hour now. So please help me settle this. Batman is the man and Bruce Wayne is the mask. Clark Kent is the man and Superman is the mask. Do you agree with these statements?
  16. Ha. One of the her selling points was an open bar at the reception. That would not have ended well.
  17. That happened to me once. I was asked to be at the wedding & be an usher. This is why I now look at my caller ID instead of just answering.
  18. Now: 2000 Buick Regal SE - I liked it so much, I bought the same exact car after a deer made me crash the last one. First: 1992 Ford Explorer - Still runs good but the 4WD went out so I upgraded. Want: 1968 Mustang Fastback - Technically, I already owned this. However, it was for me and my dad to fix up to be my 1st car when I was 16. He had to sell it when I was 15. One of these days I want to find one and fix it up with my dad.
  19. Two things: 1) I'm at the gym on a treadmill. Guy in a full suit jumps on the one next to me in a full suit and starts matching my speed. Then he pulls out a bible and asks me what I know about Jesus. He didn't seem to like me telling him to fuck off. 2) If you want to host a super bowl party, that is fine. If host a super bowl party at my house without asking me first, that is not okay. Not that I mind, but you should still ask first.
  20. Wow. That made me remember that I was in on Dragon Gate and UFC bulk buys back when I was on the Oratory. I should get around to watching those at some point.

    NBA Jam

    Busted out the Sega version out yesterday. Just as awesome as ever. But how does the other team always make their last second, full court shots?
  22. How about Shawn & Hunter win? They haven't done that in a while.
  23. I really want to argue, but I cannot. And that makes me a little sad inside.
