I always felt this way. Never got pushback on the former, but I was one of the few boys in my area in the mid 90's who just didn't get or like wrestling. I wasn't particularly ostracized but it push me towards having female friends super early on since we could actually talk about different and objectively better things like how awesome animals are.

That's why we got along so well in paris~

I'm just not a fan of performance and machismo. Fakeness just ruins athletic events, and stuff like MMA is horrifying

I hate simulation and diving in football.
Wrestling isn't a big thing here, I don't know anyone irl now or in school that liked it. Auspollers do though which I find weird.

I'm going to open my second game in the émigré series by the end of this week. 15 players. It is titled "An Insulting Inquiry," and it takes place during corruption investigations in the Parliament building of an island nation to be named loosely after whichever mafia player speaks up first.

The island is situated in the fantasy archipelago of Metzzi, which is Italian-inspired, if that helps.


e: the island nation/culture is named Decapua, the city is named Busbion, and the island itself is named Rene (pronounced "reen").

Eh, I didn't get wrestling until I watched a few events. The action is pretty entertaining and although the outcome is predetermined, I respect the athleticism involved in performing many of the moves.

MMA is also good, but I generally approve of violence because I am a barbarian, fear my rage ability, huge hit die, and damage reduction.

I could tell you about why I like a thing instead?

For example I really like The Genius, which is great because of how hilariously polite they are while simultaneously backstabbing and lying to each other.

Also I like golf because it is the sport that takes the most skill to play (I have played most sports competitively) and little fitness, which is my kinda thing.

Well as a lifelong member of the Fishes, I believe firmly that only Fish leadership can bring Decapua back from the economic stagnation we've experienced in recent years. The Lion-Gull coalition government had good intentions when they passed regulations for our fishing and mining sectors - nobody wants to go back to the days when fishermen could be gobbled up by boulderfish and their families wouldn't even be compensated for their loss - but those regulations have tied industry's hands too far. Limestone production is at an all-time low, allowing cheap, low-quality limestone from Aburga to flood the market. Last year, Rene fisherman only brought back 34,000 tonnes of seafood, a 17.9% decrease from the previous year. As our industries diminish, so too does our tax revenue: the annual budget passed last month is our third year of deficit spending in a row.

The Fish party has an answer though. One: cut back on the excessive regulations burdening our industries, allowing them to flourish once more. Two: we will bring Decapua closer to the Metzzi Community, and with those stronger ties to the Empire of Arrentia we can eliminate our bloated and extravagant defense spending, returning our budget surplus. Three: we will negotiate with Goldskeep Bank to lower interest rates for businesses and consumers, further stimulating the economy.

Elections are in three months. Vote For Change: Vote Fish.

This is a prime example of the Fishes once again prioritising their utopian laissez-faire economic fantasies from cloudcuckooland over the everyday needs of working Decapuans.

The Fish Party talks about liberalising the fishing industry, but they're not trying to make it easier for small fisherpeople. No, the Fishes are squarely in the pocket of Big Whale, and all they want to do is import the sweetheart deal the Arrentians have set up with large factory ships to pay below-minimum wages outside of Decapuan ports. The Lions will protect Reneish wages for Reneish workers.

Then the Fishes talk about approving more environmentally damaging limestone mines, at a time when the rest of Metzzi is transitioning to a clean and efficient sandstone economy. Of course we need to reduce limestone imports, but the short-sighted Fish proposal would utterly contaminate Rene's environment and snuff out our valuable tourism industry.

And even if the Fishes, who couldn't negotiate their way out of a dry paper bag, manage to secure a favourable deal from the notoriously miserly Goldskeep Bank, the only result of this cheaper credit will be to inflate our already overvalued salt price. And when the salt bubble bursts, as it inevitably will, it won't be Lord Eelington or the rest of the fatcats in Busbion who pay for it. It will be the ordinary fishermen and lion tamers.

This election, vote for the party that cares about you, not vested corporate interests. Vote Lion.

It's really less of a rivalry and more of a very fit man throwing dodgeballs at the rotting corpse of a goat.
