All kinds of examples of this but two stood out to me from the new Carrie show on Prime.

• Whenever someone makes a "viral video" its some overly edited, wacky borderline Youtube poop version. Those typically aren't what goes viral anymore and haven't been for at least like 15 years.
• That "viral video" blows up, sometimes literally over night, to the point where everyone is talking about it and coming up to the person on the street (or in this case, a school). I'm not saying that NEVER happens but unless you're Hawk Tuah level, it is very unlikely.

I found myself thinking "how long until her next album?" then I looked it up and realized Empty Hands came out at the beginning of THIS YEAR.

I gotta practice patience.

Or at least cut back heavily? I knew it from the War Zone video game which I got around the same time I started I started watching in late 98, and thought it was a cool move. But I felt like I very rarely saw him do it to the point when I did see it, it was a big deal.

He had JUST teamed up with Bradshaw right before I started watching so he was usually in tag matches. I think they usually finished with the assisted powerbomb or Bradshaw's lariat but I would still see the Dominator from time to time.

But by the time they dropped the ministry gimmick and were full APA, I feel like I almost never saw it again. Just wondering if I'm crazy or he did actually phase it out over time.

He seems like an absolute headache in real life. But he always fucking kills it on the mic.

He's still my favorite rapper.

But I love the "Survive 5 Minutes" concept for non-wrestlers or full blown jobbers very occasionally when it makes sense and sets up another more important match or stipulation.

And this one paid off. Trick regained the title and had a good ass match with a veteran.

I'm not even saying it can't be funny or entertaining in a scene. I've just seen it so many times by now. Writers don't seem to understand the concept of just "give it a rest."

Jim describing the off the top rope issue with HBK and Vader. It seems he described it perfectly. There really is no excuse for HBK in that moment. He basically ruined the match. If he was going for the elbow, hit the elbow. If Vader was supposed to move but didn't then he just hits the elbow. There was no good reason for HBK to land on his feet and do what he did.

I'm personally kinda over him doing Stephen King adaptations but there are still 3 more on the horizon (Carrie, Dark Tower, The Mist). I'm not suggesting they won't be good or great. I'm definitely gonna watch them and I expect they probably will be. I'm just saying as someone who was "over" Stephen King a long time ago, it's hard for me to be excited for them.

And the new Exorcist movie. I have confidence he is gonna do something really great with that because I don't think he would take on an Exorcist project unless he was confident he could. But I just have no idea what to expect. So to answer my own question, I guess that's what I'm most looking forward to.

And as far as Clayface, (I know he isn't directing but he co-wrote it) based on the trailer, I think it might suck but I hope I'm wrong. Everybody disputed me here the first time I said that, but I stand behind it. I'm not even saying I think it will suck. I'm just saying I think there is a fair chance that it will. I will very happily admit if my doubts were unwarranted.

I've been watching a whole lot of old Half in The Bags, and sometimes it seems like Jay wants to rant but he doesn't because he thinks it isn't the platform for it. I want to hear those rants. He's obviously a hardcore movie fan, with a weirdo bent. I wanna hear that shit.

I basically agree with him completely. I thought it was awesome but I just wanted more. And Jubilee was finally cool.

It was cool. I liked it. I don't necessarily mind Jean Grey being used in this role but it is so obviously being used as a jump off point for X-Men in the MCU. But that jump off is completely complicated by the upcoming Doomsday.

Like what the fuck are they doing?? They're introducing mutants into the MCU while also leading to multiverse crossover to incorporate the mutants of the Fox universe.

Do one or the other!! But they're apparently trying to do both. It just bugs me.

Also, they absolutely killed the character of Punisher, which I think was their goal.

Michael Cole: I don't know what else to say.
Corey Graves: Just say, "You're right, Graves. Just once."

That was a great line and he is totally right. He finds a way to be absolutely truthful (in kayfabe) but still root for the heels. In my opinion, he really has perfected heel commentary in the modern day.

I'm a huge Royce fan. Royce is a dope rapper. Royce could probably hang with almost any other rapper.

He just happened to tangle with the best rapper on the planet and got completely dismantled. It is brutal but beautiful to listen to.

I've been using Swagbucks for several years and never had any problems with this until I got a new phone (which is more more modern than my previous).

Now very often when I snap a pic to upload to Magic Receipts, it just loads for a second then goes back to the receipt screen. Nothing has happened. When I have tried it through mobile browsers, sometimes I see a message like "Webpage not found" or something like that then it just goes back to the main screen.

I've tried through the app and at least 4 different mobile browsers and it happens across all platforms. I've even tried putting my mobile browsers in Desktop Mode and same result. I've also tried clearing cache, restarting phone, even re-installing the app.

But the truly frustrating part is sometimes it works just fine the first time. Sometimes it works the second or third time. Today I had to try like 6 times and finally it worked. It eventually works but I just have no idea what the actually issue is and why it is so inconsistent.

I'm using my high speed mobile data (not wi-fi) and everything else internet connected is working fine so I don't think it is a network connection issue.

If I'm at home, I can just use my laptop but sometimes I'm snapping while I'm away from home and I'm trying to cash out immediately after getting the points. Has anyone else had problems like this or can offer any possible suggestions? Thank you.

Character 1: I just thought--

Character 2: You thought what?!

Just wait 2 seconds and let them finish their sentence. But then character 1 never finishes their sentence because they got hit with a hard what.

This is probably the one trope that does REALLY annoy me. And would probably make me full blown angry if someone did it in real life.

I really really really hope it is good. This trailer does not give me the impression that it will be though.

For example in a haunted house movie: Someone will experience full blown demonic entity trying to kill them, then when they describe it to someone later they will phrase it like "this house has an evil presence" or some vague shit like that.

I know the prevailing theory is that Tony Khan will keep AEW going as long as he is capable, but I just don't really buy into that theory.

I think it is a very real possibility AEW will lose their TV / streaming deal at some point, maybe soon. They're obviously not growing and expanding their options so they're only gonna decline if that happens.

I think Tony will fight to keep it alive until the bitter end but the bitter end will come. And he will consider himself so accomplished that he cuts his losses and spins it as a positive farewell, and he won't be entirely wrong. He did accomplish something unique in the pro wrestling industry. Maybe he will sell the brand name off (could be a good thing) or maybe he will just shut it all down.

He is literally an e-fed booker in real life. I used to be an e-fed booker when I was 16. I just thought it would be fun to do it cuz I liked watching wrestling and liked being creative. I didn't do it because I had "passion for pro-wrestling." When the hassle and drama got too much and I felt like it wasn't worth it anymore, I just shut it all down. I really think that is a possibility for Tony, and I think that might happen once the network money dries up.

As much as people wanna claim that "he is like us, but rich" I don't believe that at all, because the people who say that are people who claim to have "passion for pro-wrestling." I don't believe Tony Khan actually has passion for pro-wrestling. I just think he was a big fan, has an ego and found a way to feed it with his money.

And after AEW folds or declines significantly, there will be countless Youtube retrospectives about "The Rise and Fall of AEW" completely ignoring the people who pointed out its problems and predicted its demise along the way.

I know he is a bad guy but he is just fucking cool. I appreciate a villain who is extremely confident and capable. When he said "I'm everyone's type" I felt that, even as a straight dude.

When multiple characters are bickering, another character with some level of authority, yells "ENOUGH!" which shuts everyone up.
