    Ya beat me to it, so I deleted mine. Then I think you deleted yours. Then I was going to go back and put mine back up, then you put up a new one.


    We communicate as a team. It's awesome.

    Before this escalates I will politely ask you to hit refresh.

    I think Extant and myself each put up a thread at the same time, saw that each of us had put up a thread. Then each of us deleted our thread. Then Extant put up another one before I could put up another one.


    It was awkward.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Clearly we need to bring in some consultants to streamline business processes around here. We need more synergy and other corporate buzzwords.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Season 2-3 of The Office doesn't get discussed enough in the pantheon of great sitcom seasons.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 12:15 PM

    We need to granulate our reports down to the office level so that we could have some accountability on the back end of the processes.

    ReplyDelete
  19. They get forgotten because the last seasons were so bad.

    ReplyDelete
  20. And then you felt oddly attracted to each other...

  21. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 12:22 PM

    Let's not jump the shark just yet. You have to build to that.

  22. Gah, I hate when my ESPN alert goes off before I see what happened on TV.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Kofi Kingston is going to be found beat up in the locker room area tonight. Nobody will know who did it until Brock Lesnar takes his spot in the Money in the Bank Match and wins it. This will set up Lesnar Vs. Rollins at Battleground and Kofi Vs. Lesnar in Japan.

    ReplyDelete
  24. You're ambitious.

    ReplyDelete
  25. So was this a botch or a shoot?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 12:29 PM

    I did the same thing yesterday.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Sittin' in Starbucks, working on my third novel. Like a boss.


    Writing an interrogation scene right now. Having a lot of fun with it.

    ReplyDelete
  28. My wife raped my ears with that shitty Meghan Trainor song. I demanded restitution in the form of silence, and she put the song on repeat blasting through the house. I need an old priest and a young priest.

    ReplyDelete
  29. So I'm hiring a kid to do some pretty hard physical labour, hours and hours of straight digging and also hauling things up a pretty steep hill. He's willing to do it quite a bit cheaper than I'd expected to pay. Should I offer more than he's asking?


    Maybe hire him at his rate and then once he's done a decent job I'll overpay.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 12:36 PM

    Botch, for sure.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 12:37 PM

    I hope the Blue Jays team bus overturns. I don't want anyone killed, I just want the entire team on the DL.


    Also, I hope the Red Sox fall into a bottomless pit (moreso).

    ReplyDelete
  32. The last season was good. Season 7(?) with James Spader was not.

    ReplyDelete
  33. But what about Kevin Costner?

    You need to rethink your vows.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I went to see Tomorrowland earlier, mainly because I was interested to see if it deserves the 'flop' status. It's ambitious and has an interesting concept at its centre, but mostly, it's an ideologically confused mess of a film.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Sheesh, $204,000,000 for Jurassic World. That's a lot of money.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I completely blocked James Spader on The Office out of my mind.

    ReplyDelete
  39. MITB Sunday, time to rewatch cash-ins and Punk/Cena.

    Email one to Scott, if he likes it he'll let you post them here.

    I fucking hate the Blue Jays. My hatred for them has come out in spades this weekend. I've hated them since I was a kid living in Canada.


    Where's Hart Killer to back me up on this?

    ReplyDelete
  46. No doubt sitting somewhere scowling and shaking his head at all of the uppity Canadians walking by!

    ReplyDelete
  47. It's all very uncomfortable, but never seems to be intentionally so.

    ReplyDelete
  48. at least minimum wage

    ReplyDelete
  49. My little brother (who is 25) always does my lawn for an agreed upon price of $25. I always thrown in an extra couple of bucks or some beers.

  50. I'm hungry... but I am too busy to make lunch or go get anything... someone send me some delivery.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Has Mark Henry been on any shows since Elimination Chamber?

    ReplyDelete
  52. He jobbed to Reigns via count out a couple weeks ago.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Oh. His inclusion in that IC match, being a Texan aside, was bizarre. And I'd blame him more than most for the way that match fell apart. He's supposed to be the veteran.

    ReplyDelete
  54. It's absolutely up there with the best of the best. Series 2-6 are 95% good

  60. The last series was going the way of series 8 (Spaders series) until they knew it was finishing and had some clear direction to wrap it up

    ReplyDelete
  61. I've found protein shakes to be surprisingly filling. Almond milk mixed with some stuff I bought out of Food Lion

    I don't wanna go to work.

  63. Me neither... though I do want to brag about not having to... too bad MisterTuesdayNight isn't here.

    ReplyDelete
  64. I've missed about the last two weeks of WWE programming. Anyone mind catching me up real quick?

    ReplyDelete
  65. Sorry to hear that you have to. I've just been sitting here, banging a drum all day.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Leave Pawnee out of this

    ReplyDelete
  67. didn't miss anything really since elimination chamber

    ReplyDelete
  68. All we can do is post snide remarks, but that's going to happen regardless of quality. In other words, just ask Scott to post it.

    ReplyDelete
  69. That's really funny because my real name is Tom and I'm an uncle to my sister's kids!

    ReplyDelete
  70. Had a feeling this was the case. Thought this was way too soon for another ppv.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I read that as "shittin' in Starbucks"

    ReplyDelete
  72. And the Pirates offense are make Cole Hamels look like he's still living in 2009.

    ReplyDelete
  73. WHAT'RE THE ODDS??!?!?!?!??!?

    ReplyDelete
  74. It looks pretty good match wise though. MitB, Owens/Cena, Rollins/Ambrose.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Not sure. If your name is Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh, I'm out of here, homey.

    ReplyDelete
  76. So this is the same show just with MITB instead of Elimination Chamber?

    ReplyDelete
  77. In that case yes my name is Glenn Beck.

    ReplyDelete
  78. Why you always crying, Glenn?

    ReplyDelete
  79. WEB GEM Jung Ho!

    ReplyDelete
  80. what's the first 2 about?

  81. Are you a Purdue alum? They have a kick-ass drum they bang

    ReplyDelete
  82. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:11 PM

    Yeah, pretty much.

    ReplyDelete
  83. Aren't you supposed to be out of here?

    ReplyDelete
  84. But then you would miss me.

    ReplyDelete
  85. That's over 300 hours in last month, she's a real go getting!

  88. 4:00 for WrestleMania 2000 correct?

    ReplyDelete
  89. *Dances like an uppity negro on parallax's face*

    ReplyDelete
  90. What happened with the Lana/Rusev stuff? Last time I watched Rusev broke his ankle.

    ReplyDelete
  91. Lana hooked up with Dolph

    ReplyDelete
  92. Part of a series called The Armadillo Mysteries. Stars Dilbert Pinkerton: mutant armadillo, private detective. He digs for the truth.


    The first, The City of Smoke & Mirrors, he runs afoul with Nevermore Bay's local vigilante, The Buzzard. And digs into that mystery, running into the police, some of The Buzzard's rogue gallery, The Buzzard himself, and some of Don Komodo's goons.


    The second, The Dame was a Tad Polish, Dill is hired to protect an actress and mutant frog, Lily Pad. Someone's after her, and with anti-anthropomorphic sentiments at an all time high, Dill's not sure if it's because she's a mutant or if there's something she's not telling him.

    ReplyDelete
  93. :: Doesn't raise minimum wage ::

    ReplyDelete
  94. Has it gone anywhere else? What have they been doing with Rusev out?

    ReplyDelete
  95. I just looked it up. That's a good drum.

    ReplyDelete
  96. Rusev went and got injured almost right after that. He's gonna be on the shelf for a couple of months.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 1:15 PM

    Red Sox are done. What a pathetic display. If heads don't roll from this debacle of a weekend, then no one gives a shit. This shit show is more that the Red Sox suck then the Jays being any good.

    ReplyDelete
  98. You just wanna bang on the drums all day?

    ReplyDelete
  99. *Marries Parallax's sister*

    ReplyDelete
  101. Nice try. No female relatives.


    I do enjoy that Chris Rock bit though... YOU PEOPLE sure are good at providing us with entertainment.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I've been watching all the games and the Red Sox's defence is fucking atrocious.

    ReplyDelete
  103. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 1:16 PM

    .....and they're finished.

    ReplyDelete
  104. Just witnessed the birth of my baby girl. Born this morning.

  106. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 1:17 PM

    Way to go, man.

    ReplyDelete
  107. They are only 7 games out

    ReplyDelete
  108. Awesome, dude! Congrats!

    ReplyDelete
  109. Congrats! It's a pretty awesome thing.

    ReplyDelete
  110. I take everyone is going to be in limbo for a while or Dolph is going to have to wrestle Sheamus and Barrett 40 more times.

    ReplyDelete
  111. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 1:17 PM

    Also, offense and pitching. I think that covers everything.

    ReplyDelete
  112. Tell me what is your preference when it comes to the female ass? Large or small?

    ReplyDelete
  113. or he could win money in the bank tonight

    ReplyDelete
  114. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:18 PM

    I once had to call off work because my buddy told me about a guy we know liked to get fucked in the ass with a strap-on and his girl came into the bar where he was chilling with all his boys and totally blew up his spot, and I laughed so hard I cracked 2 ribs. My boss wasn't trying to have it. but once I told him the whole story he's like "that's so nuts it has to be true". I say "yeah, if i just didn't want to work I'd say I had the flu or was up all night because I had the shits or something. But seriously, I got 2 cracked ribs, I can barely breathe much less get any work done."

    ReplyDelete
  115. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 1:18 PM

    I realize that, but when you play as bad as they're playing, it may as well be 27 games out.

    ReplyDelete
  116. Congrats!


    (Pretty inconsiderate to wait this long to tell us though)

    ReplyDelete
  117. and then face Sheamus and Barrett for the briefcase 40 more times

    ReplyDelete
  118. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:19 PM

    Congrats. What did you name her?

    ReplyDelete
  119. Huh, breaking with tradition. A bold gambit.


    Ok run along and have some watermelon now Toby.

  120. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:19 PM

    Favorite piledriver? I always loved Jerry Lynn's.

  121. The album in the 1980's.

    ReplyDelete
  122. You got it, White Power Bill! Have fun listening to your John Cougar Mellencamp!

    ReplyDelete
  123. Hope you enjoyed sleep. Because you won't again now for the next few years.

    ReplyDelete
  124. How do Red Sox fans feel about FSG at the moment? I'm a Liverpool fan, so curious what their profile is like over with you.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:21 PM

    Fuck the Sawx, the cheating bitch ass Patriots, the Bruins, and all their douchebag Masshole fans. Fuck the Red Wings, Penguins, and Cowboys too.

    ReplyDelete
  126. HEY! It is just John Mellencamp now!

    ReplyDelete
  127. Al Sharpton called. He wants an apology for this thread.

    ReplyDelete
  128. He had a girl. He won't sleep for about 25 years.

    ReplyDelete
  129. I'd prefer if Owens/Cena ended with a fuck finish after not very long and Rollins/Ambrose has the potential to deliver (but hasn't on PPV so far). Aside from that, I'm not expecting much from the card.

    ReplyDelete
  130. I always dug Foley's, where he grabbed them by the tights to pull them down.

    ReplyDelete
  131. I bet he called on an Obamaphone!

    ReplyDelete
  132. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 1:23 PM

    Only the Sox for me, dude. I could care less about football, hockey, basketball, whatever, etc.

    ReplyDelete
  133. Owen could pull that out of nowhere.


    He was very snappy with it.

    ReplyDelete
  134. Stranger In The AlpsJune 14, 2015 at 1:24 PM

    I wish I paid attention enough to give you an opinion, man. You may want to check in with Bayless on that one.

    ReplyDelete
  135. Mitch, The GodfatherJune 14, 2015 at 1:24 PM

    So what is the PPV lineup tonight?


    Cena vs. Owens.
    MITB match
    Rollins vs. Ambrose
    PTP vs. New Day
    Some divas match

    ReplyDelete
  136. How could you forget Ryback vs Big Show?!

    ReplyDelete
  137. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:27 PM

    I'm torn on his. It looks weak as hell, you can see his ass is taking the whole bump, but if I was a wrestler and had to take a piledriver from someone Terry would be the guy I'd pick. He does the safest piledriver I've seen.

    ReplyDelete
  138. Mitch, The GodfatherJune 14, 2015 at 1:27 PM

    I don't know how. I hope Big Show doesn't find out and slap me with those frying pan hands that you have to see in person to believe.

    ReplyDelete
  139. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:29 PM

    I just don't have a reason to hate the Celtics. But it's kind of an unwritten law here that we have to hate teams from Boston and Pittsburgh.

    ReplyDelete
  140. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:32 PM

    My current goal in life is to have enough money to go to the Canadian GP and the IRL race in Toronto next year. Fuck watching this shit on TV, I want to see it in person.

    ReplyDelete
  141. Yankees have to cash in on bases loaded and zip outs...stupid cold streak eating their division lead away to nothing.

    ReplyDelete
  142. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:35 PM

    I can see that happening. Everyone is saying Roman is going to win (with good reason) so I can see Vince having someone else win just to swerve everyone.

    ReplyDelete
  143. Does WWE actually think that Rollins jobbing (basically cleanly) to J&J Security will get people to watch their champion defend his title?

    ReplyDelete
  144. No name just yet. We didn't find out the sex beforehand so no name was decided on yet.

    ReplyDelete
  145. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:35 PM

    When did that happen?

    ReplyDelete
  146. Thanks everyone :)

    ReplyDelete
  147. A Rusev feud would have broken up the monotony temporarily, at least. Now, we are just stuck with this.

    ReplyDelete
  148. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:37 PM

    If I ever have a daughter I'm going to name her Charlotte, after my late grandmother.

    ReplyDelete
  149. This past Monday.

    ReplyDelete
  150. That's why I like it. He just falls back instead of jumping down or whatever. It looks so weird that it's always appealed to me.

    ReplyDelete
  151. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:37 PM

    Seth has been booked like a chump the whole time he's had the title.

    ReplyDelete
  152. Whew. 2 runs...came a strike away of getting jackshit on that scenario.

    ReplyDelete
  153. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:39 PM

    Lawler's piledriver is kind of like that too.

    ReplyDelete
  154. Would it have been so hard for Rollins to kick the crap out of them, have Ambrose come out, cream Rollins with the title and drape Mercury over Seth for the win?

    ReplyDelete
  155. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:40 PM

    This race is pretty decent, outside of the 500 IRL should just stick to road\street courses.

    ReplyDelete
  156. Is it sad that all the talk about Money In The Bank just makes me want to watch Mania 2000 even more?

    ReplyDelete
  157. As much as it pains me to say this, I think Rollins's title reign has been an unmitigated disaster. He's been castigated behind the Authority, booked to look like a chump since winning the title, and basically been second-fiddle to the overarching Authority storyline. At least when Brock was the champion, there was nothing higher in importance. The atrocious J&J angle on Monday night was just the final nail in the coffin.


    I love Seth Rollins, but he deserves so much better than what he's been given.

    ReplyDelete
  158. Or just have Rollins destroy them to have some sort of momentum going into tonight?

    ReplyDelete
  159. Well, to start off with, Edge's stellar cash-in on Cena. A cash-in that, according to Edge, he personally had to suggest using in that fashion, as creative was going to have him just start a feud with it on a Raw at some point.

    ReplyDelete

    Stepping out to see Jurassic World. I expect to see humans and dinosaurs in a battle of wits for all-time!

    ReplyDelete
  163. I think Seth needs to drop the title and then start over. They've tried their best to kill all of his heat.

    ReplyDelete
  164. Even Orton looked stronger as second fiddle to The Authority.

    ReplyDelete
  165. You could just read the synopsis on wiki for free.

    ReplyDelete
  166. Macklin, Man Without GameJune 14, 2015 at 1:43 PM

    Film is a visual experience. I wanna read I'll pick up the Movie Novelization down the road.

    ReplyDelete
  167. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:43 PM

    One thing that bothers me about that is "the worlds first genetically hybrid dinosaur". Um, weren't they all hybrids? The ones in the first movie had frog DNA.

    ReplyDelete
  168. It's amazing that they killed his heat after he won the title. Maybe Vince is confused and thinks he has the IC Title?

    ReplyDelete
  169. wiki'd save you a couple of hours too.

    ReplyDelete
  170. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:43 PM

    I think he needs to keep the title and turn face.

    ReplyDelete
  171. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:44 PM

    And about 40 bucks.

    ReplyDelete
  172. Then he'll be #2 face at best. There really isn't room on the face side.

    ReplyDelete
  173. He needs to stay heel for when Lesnar returns.

    ReplyDelete
  174. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:45 PM

    Do a double turn with him and Roman.

    ReplyDelete
  175. The problem isn't Seth though, it's a combination of the writers and what the writers are writing. For one, Creative isn't very creative, and this insistence on running the Authority storyline is reaching nWo levels of preposterous proportions. Never mind the fact that we've had heel authority figures since late 1997: this present storyline truly began in 2011 with the CM Punk angle, and has been evolving into its present form ever since. Even if you don't count COO Triple H era as the precursor to the Authority, the faction will have been around for two years come August. That's way too fucking long for a wrestling angle in an era of multiple shows per week, 12 PPVs and 'Network Specials'.

    ReplyDelete
  176. Wait he'd be threatening to cash in by having a match?

    ReplyDelete
  177. Adam "Colorado" CurryJune 14, 2015 at 1:45 PM

    Good point.

    ReplyDelete
  178. I'd be up for that. They might actually let Reigns get over.

    ReplyDelete
