And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I dislike super heroes but I saw that movie ages ago and yes, I have been compared to him many times. I have more nicknames than I can count. But I am not, in fact, Mr. Glass. They call me Captain Log.

Weird fact - I've never seen a movie replicate the horrible feeling of drowning better than Unbreakable. (I've drowned)

I'm pretty sure not - but experience being subjective and all who knows. Everything seems way to ridiculous for me to actually be dead.

Edit : I just realized that sounded like a joke. I have drowned but no medical people were on the scene so it's not known how far gone I was.

bellator should either try and build up their own, legitimate fighters or just go full freakshow like rizin. basing you ppv numbers on remembering dinosaurs from another, better, organization doesn't sound like a sound long term business strategy but then again what do i know.

I am torn. I want both Chael and Wandy to get paid, but as a person with pets/passed pets named after both fighters, I don't see how this turns out well.

Wanderlei will be convicted and put away for actual ax murder first.

fedit: based on gently caress all.

One of the few charges that wasn't a guilty verdict was the one for sexual assault which is pretty hosed, kidnapping is apparently life though and he's convicted on that.

Not quite correct

"He was found not guilty of three charges including burglary with use of a deadly weapon, sexually motivated coercion and battery with intent to commit sexual, according to Fox 5."

The sexual assault charges he was found guilty of. The attempted murder charges resulted in a hung jury so the prosecution can refile them if they wish though it would require another trial.

Joking aside, I mentioned being anti-capital punishment and I am. But in the States kidnapping is still a capital (hanging) offense in a good deal of places. That's an extremely seriously crime.

Have they made up yet? He is a doofus but Jesus Chael is rough on him.

Also Chael liked my tweet about my bird being named after him the day I broke my ankle. Things balance out.

Reportedly Bellator isn't trying to rebook Fedor/Mitrione so I assume their flirtation with Russian magicians didn't pan out and their heavyweight division is going to go back to everyone dreaming of the days of milk and Cole Konrad

also War Machine cannot get jailed hard enough and the PPV is going to fail miserably if it even happens.

Yes, but it hasn't been done in a while. Give me a bit and I'll find a source. I've been out of University for twelve years so I'm a little "behind" on the cutting edge fact stuff.

I'm very surprised they're even going to try it again so long after their last one. I have to think they'll try to stick Paul Daley on it against someone too. And they won't give up on Fedor vs someone.
