WRASSLIN

Long time no post! I'm sure I have had plenty of great thawts buuuuuuut, I also am REALLY lazy.

Anyway, back to the point. I have rekindled my love of wrestling. Not that quasi-homosexual MMA stuff, but REAL WRASSLIN. I'm talking Stone Cold Steve Austin drinking 3 beers after every match WRASSLIN. I loved watching WWF every Monday night. My dad and I would flip out over everything that happened. Then, for some STUPID reason, I decided WRASSLIN was stupid! Biggest mistake ever.

I think I liked WRASSLIN so much as a kid is because it's a lot like comic book stories. Not nearly as soap opera-esque as WRASSLIN, but it still had heroes and villains and amazing fights. My buddy and I watched this famous match where one guy threw another guy from the top of a 16 foot tall cage onto a table! It was fucking intense!

Me and the same buddy are now getting caught up with the current story lines and they aren't nearly as good as the old days, but that might just be because I remember the old story lines more fondly then they should be. They have great WRASSLERS on there, but the stories are a bit weak.

Still, WRASSLIN is quickly becoming another institution in my life, and I'm not afraid to say I LIKE IT.

A BAD PLACE FOR AN ARGUMENT

So, I wake up this morning, groggy as all get out. I head to the bathroom to release urine into the toilet bowl to flush away. I get into the stall, and I hear people talking, GIRLS talking to be precise. I then realize that the vent in the stall is carrying the voices of the girls in the floors above me. What I then proceed to hear is one of the most intense arguments anyone could hear at 8:30 A.M. while pissing. A quote from the argument "I have been nothing but FUCKING NICE TO YOU and you treat me like SHIT!" it all ends when one of the obviously smarter suite mates points out how everyone can hear them through the vents, then all goes quiet.

I realize later on in the day(it was later because I couldn't possibly process what happened as I was excreting liquid) that the bathroom is generally a terrible place to have an argument. Not just for these girl's reason of me hearing them fight, but for many others. A bathroom is a cramped place most of the time since it's usually meant to be occupied by one person at a time, maybe two, so there really isn't any place to move and your forced to keep in that person's face. Another reason is that the argument will always be rushed. Someone will probably have to use the toilet or shower eventually, and you don't relocate to argue, so it would just be awkward when someone really has to poop and two other people are biting each others head's off.

If you girls read this, please work out your differences in a more civil manor, in a more civil place.

YOU MAKE MY HEART SING

Yes! The trailer for Spike Jonze's adaptation of the kid's book "Where the Wild Things Are" just hit the internet, and I couldn't be more STOKED.

Now, I'm no Nashville Nights writer...anymore, but I do know when I feel like a band is about to explode. I think Natalie Portman's Shaved Head is about to do just that. I'm sure they'll be popping up on NN soon, so you can get some tracks there, but for now, just enjoy this awesome video.

BOOGERS ARE ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING

If there is one waste product of my body I can't stand in the least, it would have to be boogers. Boogers are some of the most disgusting things to me. I am not easily grossed out, but you threaten me with a booger, I will either run away or just drop into the fetal position, depending on the severity of said boogie.

Even as a kid, I thought boogers were dreadful. I never, I repeat, NEVER ate my own boogers. I thought they were just weird. I can't remember clearly, but I'm pretty sure I thought it was just nose poop. It was a solid material that was coming out of my body. The only other thing I knew about that fit that description was poop, so logically, as a five year old, I thought boogers were just small poops.

Now I know the truth

Boogers are a by-product of when you breath through your nose, and how the wet mucus (equally as gross) filters out the bad stuff in the air. So essentially, boogers are wet mucus and smog from the air forming a solid object meant to torment my soul.

So, I must stress, if you are in possession of a booger, please take care of it somewhere NOT in my eye sight. If I don't see it, I'll be just fine. THANK YOU.
