Brook Hogan's fantastic "Why I am a good fit for TNA Wrestling".
...Christ that's a terrible sentence in so many ways.
Featureing such gems as:
What I admire so much about TNA is right now fans think that they know wrestling.
The fans think they know what it is, but they don't!
Which is followed by:
They are like 'oh everything is set up, all the storylines, all the plans, it’s a soap opera for men.' And its true, that’s been happening for years in the wrestling business.
I guess they do know what it is then. Disregard previous sentence!
What TNA is doing now is, and they couldn’t do it without whats really going on right now, these girls, they all actually have drama happening.
I KNOW HOW TO SAY WORDS.
Honestly, what does that sentence even mean?
The whole time Vince was growing his company , my dad was right there next to him. My dad worked with Vince Sr, when Vince Jr came in and he asked my dad to help him. So my dad for years helped Vince run WWF. My dad was there for the whole thing.
I don't think Hogan helped him run the company. I'm sure he told you that for years growing up, but it is not true.
My dad is just so seasoned.
Well, he does look like beef jerky...
I think if TNA had 20 years under their belt, the PR, and the machine, and the publicity that Vince McMahon has, I think actually they could run neck and neck.
"If my company was bigger, we'd be bigger!"
Well, duh.
"So I said, ‘Man I always said I wouldn’t get into wrestling.’ Not because I didn’t want to, because I love it.
But then my music career failed, and eh, I got nothing else to fall back on, so what are you gonna do?
But sure, this was your goal all along.
It’s like where do you find a woman who knows wrestling as much as I do
I love this comment so much.
I hope this is all a character of some kind. I really, really hope that's all it is, because I want Brooke nowhere near the creative side of this. Not unless you want to see Stack$ & Paul Wall being tag team champions.

There was a pretty big whoop-dee-doo the past couple years on the birth of the Lexus LFA, which was regarded as Japan's first proper supercar. Yes, people did (and will) argue for the Nissan GTR, but the GTR is not a supercar. NSX? Maybe, but you can't really use the words "everyday" and "supercar" in the same sentence. A supercar should be more than quick for it's time, exclusive and somehow INSANE.
But this is not about the LFA, because while the LFA certainly fits the supercar bill (and it's Japanese), the Japanese already tried to go supercar...over 20 years ago.
( This is about the Jiotto Caspita, and it is a story of failed dreams, economic turmoil and underwear. Yes, underwear. )

Or rather, will be mine very very soon. Blossomforth has eluded me for months. She was the first pony toy I really, really wanted, and at the time I wanted her she was on Hasbro's site for roughly $8, but I was stupid and didn't know she was OOP and by the time I found out she was OOP she more or less vanished from the internet. Unless you were willing to shill out $20. I am not willing to shill out $20. Yes, she does show up for reasonable prices from pony people, but by the time they post, I'm always too late. I pretty much resigned myself to living a Blossomforth free lifestyle, which while not bad, would not be as good as one with a Blossomforth.
"Hurricane Fluttershy" did not help. Both in terms of lessening the wanting & price. I think it shot her values up, which were probably already up there since she's white and ripe for customs.
But yesterday, one showed up on Amazon for a price that was not bad. I am not saying how much for I am ashamed of it myself, but safe to say after nabbing, the next cheapest was at least $20. I've rationalized this purchase by saying:
1. I have a job that pays nicely & I'm still a cheapskate.
2. I was fully prepared to pay $2 less for her weeks ago on ebay before she was nabbed.
3. Blossomforth is god-tier.
4. I probably used up all my good pony karma when I bought FS Applejack & Rarity at cost in January.
Now I still don't have her and it is possible that the Amazon seller could fuck me over. Which would suck, but I'm ok with knowing the returns process is easy. The disappointment would not be.
Now I will never check sales on her again for no other reason then I would like to think I did very well value wise because if shows up next week for $2.99 I will be kicking myself.
And yeah, I'm probably gonna open her. "Toy Story 2" has ruined me.

Picking a favorite song from Gary Numan is hard, because there is a whole lot of Numan to choose from. As much as I wanted to pick Cars, I was a tad apprenhensive about it because while Cars is in no way terrible and totally worth it, it is too predicable a choice. I don't like being predicable. I find it boring and unexciting. But I had to give and put Cars on this list ( but not the version you are thinking of. )

...in a horror house, anyone? Hat tip to someone on mutant sounds for the title to this one. I can't think of a better one.
Before I started this, I said to myself "I will make a list for this. It will make it easier to know what to write about". Sadly, I can be lazy sometimes when it comes to trivial things like this, but on the upside, not having a list meant that I didn't feel bad about cutting something out for something else. This is especially good because the song featured this time is something that I heard for the first time...( last night. )

I say that way too much when I bring people food. No one gets it though. Sometimes people think I'm being very nice because it is hot, and sometimes they probably think I'm a weirdo (I am though) because I'm giving them salad and saying it's hot. Also they are not kids.
I have waited for the day when the origin to this would show up on the net so I could share it.
FINA-FUCKING-LY.
The ending is a bit...gross and not all that funny, hell, this whole thing may not be that funny to you. But it made me smile in high school, and it still does, though I've been misquoting that butter/margarine bit for ten years.
I'm totally adding "put some in your pockets too" as part of my lexicon now.
God bless you Rocky the Fish. You've brightened up an otherwise hectic and stressful work week for me.

We can close the internet now. Because someone sent me a message with this video. People...we've finally done it. The best thing on the internet:
Sam - "Sibirskaya Zima".
This is the best thing I've heard all week. All month. But not all year because "Dog Police". I don't know what is going on here, but I want more Russian people to make rap music in English. I stopped listening after he said I went to Moscow with my ho! Not because I couldn't stand it anymore but because there is NO way anyone is ever going to write a better rap lyric than that one. You've been bested real G's move in silence like lasagna. You've been bested.
In conclusion:

I don't even know if I'm being serious anymore.
Serious time: While I'm pretty sure this was spam, people, please send me links to your music (or any music you find) on youtube/internet. No matter how shitty it may be, it makes my day. I can NOT stress this enough.
...I kinda like the song though, in a weird I shouldn't and it's objectively terrible but it makes me smile so I guess it's good then.

Maurice Sendak died today. And with him, a part of my childhood.
But enough sadness. Let's celebrate Maurice. Let's celebrate the way he encouraged kids to be creative and have fun. He didn't write down to children either as the quote (and title of this entry) says. He just wrote what he wanted to, and someone decided kids should read that. Why? I'm going with adults who have no inner child decided this and they suck. Maurice knows this. I know this. You know this. Everyone knows this.
Also "Chicken Soup with Rice":
It's a kid song, sung by Carole King about a food I do not like. I should not like this, but I do.
If you have not seen his interview with Steven Colbert, do so.
R.I.P. Maurice. You didn't set out to make children happy, but you still did. Maybe you don't consider that a success, but I do.

1st is obviously leather bound "Hitchhikers Guide to the Universe" anthology. Obvs.
2nd? Also yesterday. I'd tell you know, but I ain't spoiling an upcoming "Forgotten Songs of the 80s" feature unlike any I have ever done before. Unlike. Any. Other. Ever.
Ever. A Forgotten Songs entry unlike any before.
So there I was browsing the non-fiction section, which is always a fun time. Where else can you get a book that's most likely insane conspiracy theories about how Mayans knew what airplanes were? Did I get this? Hell yes I did. Hey, if I can fill up this bag for six dollars, I'm sure as hell filling up that bag. The more books the more I save.
Books. God I love books. I'm so alone.
And then...I see it.

Staring at me with the eyes that say "I love America and I shoot wolves from helicopters. What now bitch?"
This is more or less my reaction:

Do I leave it be? Do I take it somewhere else for lulz?
I...I...took it.
I am so ashamed right now. Yes, this is more embarrassing to own then ponies. But dammit, I had to do it. It's like a car crash or something. Do I like her? No. But I am oddly curious to read this, and it's still probably better than Chyna's book.
Yes, I have Chyna's book.
I don't know why either.
