I thought Swagger was the one a while ago where there was a rumor someone wanted out of their contract to do MMA. I think people suspected Swagger and Ziggler for some reason.


The reason probably being their legit amateur wrestling credentials

Obviously I don't remember random KronoK

Adams and Clarke were awful, and 2000/2001 Undertaker is probably the worst in-ring Undertaker ever.

Heres the Observer Awards results for Worst Match of the Year 2001

1. UNDERTAKER & KANE VS. KRONIK 9/23 PITTSBURGH . 367
2. Choshu & Nakanishi vs. Ogawa & Murakami 5/5 Fukuoka Dome 122
3. Booker T vs. Buff Bagwell 7/2 Tacoma 79

10. Trish Status vs. Stacy Keibler 11/26 Oklahoma City 10

OK. Do you believe that is the only possible interpretation? How about the only coherent interpretation?

You can interpret anything in literally any way. However, you need actual supportive reasoning for said interpretation to have any considerable merit.


So if their campaign has no merit, whats the issue? Are you concerned it might get results anyway?

You have to be very careful with what you condone as far as means because those means do not always go towards the outcomes you prefer.


As long as the outcomes dont infringe on human rights Im fundamentally okay if outcomes I dont prefer happen.

Also, people having a different interpretation of a song than I do is something I proactively condone.

Did Corrik really just compare a human being murdered to... doing away with the current national anthem?

Simple extrapolation.


So I will extrapolate off of what you said. If you delete a song you should be charged with murder.

That's not how principles work. Furthermore, it doesn't even apply. The extrapolation is based on the caring of said person in the outcome and ignoring the means of how it got there.


The difference is, even if you hate Hillary, you DO care about her right to live, because shes a human being.

No one should care about a songs right to exist.

The song doesn't bother me much -- it's an old anthem from another era and I don't think racism's overtly intended in this song that's intended to praise and unify.

If enough people feel strongly against the existing one though, then I'm all for seeing a 2017-update or a new song that better represents more people. I'm flexible on it, just play it less.

I am like 95% sure the actual thing referenced in the third stanza that is basically never ever played anyways isn't even racist in any way whatsoever at all.


So you disagree with the California NAACP. Totally fair. Why make it a crisis?

Is this seriously the argument you want to be making right now, jakyl? Thought a little higher than you than that. Maybe I misjudged your rationality.


Are you literally comparing a human being to a song?

If they replaced it as the Anthem it wouldnt cease to exist

I wasn't exactly prepared to lay out an argument for why "If you have more money, it means that God considers you a better person, and also you should give us lots and lots of money" is batshit stupid. I might do it later once I've pulled legitimate sources on things if I feel like it

But it would basically boil down to me liking that even less than the utter nonsense scientology offers. I do consider both to be A Very Bad Thing though


Isnt that EXACTLY what Scientology does too though?

Help me out here.

What should be the wording/tone of a statement, or should any be made in the first place?

Obviously the solution is "don't sexually harass people", but it has happened. Is the correct way to move forward to make no statement, or a different kind of statement?

Like there's no good way forward but some are undoubtedly better than others. I think CK's response is way better than, say, Spacey's for example.


Obviously its better than Spaceys. Its still VERY self-centered though.

Its so tough for me because I cant forgive myself for what I did kind of phrasing.
