And nowadays some people actually believe that you don't deserve to live decently or get a job because you've had a drug addiction or have something in your record. The standards have certainly been raised.

Well, he did originally receive a death sentence, but some people thought it was unfair.

quote:

Investigations were opened in the early 1950, including several Senate committees, on one of which was Joseph McCarthy, prepared to launch his sensationalist career. Receiving encouragement and information from right-wing and anti-semitic circles, MacCarthy dominated the proceedings and grabbed headlines. He was also probably encouraged by the right-wing, anti-semitic judge, LeRoy van Roden, who saw the trials as being a Jewish effort to take revenge on the Germans, and who also served on the investigating commissions.

McCarthy was a piece of poo poo, but those of us that aren't Ann Coulter can get some schadenfreude knowing he eventually got dismantled on live national TV, censured by congress, and died a couple years later due to supporting his local liquor stores too much.

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.

I had to double check this because I didn't believe it when I read it. Shocking.

I suppose the difference is that nobody will ever want the TNA tape library; they're basically a very slightly glorified local indie fed and they've never felt even a little like an actual national major league of pro wrestling. There have been some decent people that have worked for and in TNA over the years but generally nobody is going to be shelling out money for the ALPHA MALE MONTE BROWN DVD retrospective set.

You’d be surprised at who’s shown up for stints on TNA. The tape library just for Kurt Angle and Jeff Hardy might be worth it. Scott Steiner, Hulk Hogan, and Sting would also be good.

I remember hearing about when he was buying in and saying that he wanted to make it more serious, and tackling real world social issues and controversies.

He loaned them a lot of money then never got it back. you should Google the saga of him currently trying to buy the NWA. he loves wrestling but everyone that owns anything in it is a con artist.

He loaned TNA money that they knew that they couldn't pay back. They got away with not selling him the company because the courts ruled that it was a predatory loan even though TNA still agreed to the terms and are general fuckups with regards to the law.

You are technically correct, the best kind of correct!

WCW came about mostly from Georgia Championship Wrestling, an NWA branch from the 60s and 70s. At some point they changed their name to World Championship Wrestling; the WCW everyone knew from the 90s was "officially" started in 1988 with a new show after McMahon pissed off Turner for the last time.

If we want to get into semantics of names (we shouldn't though), TNA was actually NWA-TNA from 2002-04, making them the same age as WCW when it died. I'm sure they'll continue shambling into 2018, becoming Undisputed Champions of lovely Wrestling Companies.

At least WCW climbed to unforeseen heights before they died (and wrestling as a whole never recovered from their death)

I should expected to see TNA/Impact/GFW when I entered the thread. Truly life's greatest mystery in terms of how on god's green earth it still limps along on shoestring budget. I don't get why they didn't just bite the bullet and sell the Broken Hardy gimmick to WWE to make some quick cash.

At least we'll always have LOLTNA as their greatest contribution to the world. Best way to kill time at work.

Huh, So I just discovered I have a weird germ-o-phopia and it has to do with this previously unknown to me bread machine.

And upon review of my instant and near primal revulsion I can say in the gooniest of terms: That I like to slice my own bread, because people are filthy and just look at all the points of filth entry starting with the man picking up the bread with his bare paws to put into the machine.

Lets not even get into how this machine probably cut up some pumpernickel or some poo poo bread with caraway seeds in it, so now you have caraway or pumpernickel tainted bread.

and then his fumbling pawing to get it into the bag...shudder.


and Lurking Haro, if that was you doing a kindness and filming yourself at the bread machine. uh..good job, but use the little paper things to hold the bread you filthy animal.

I just googled someone using the machine.
The long hook at the beginning of the video is to keep people from touching other loafs, but after that it's germ heaven.

Also what paper things? There are paperbags, but that's it.

The craziest thing about TNA is that if you were telling people about them without showing that page or any video evidence then they'd probably say you were full of poo poo because TNA is almost impossibly incompetent. Their president torpedoed a good relationship with Spike TV by not only breaking their demand on no more intergender violence by getting powerbombed through a table (which was in fact a nice way to gently caress up her back) but by bringing back Vince Russo in secret despite being explicitly told by Spike TV that they didn't want him involved with the product.

She took the powerbomb when network suits were there, even.

No other promotion has ever done as little with so much as TNA.
