2024.05.28 21:36 YeehawBebop 23 northwest Georgia/Florida [TF4M] bubbly Latina looking for her rom com dancing in the rain moment

Hiiiiiiii I’m Artemis or Artie for short. I’m a 5’5 trans woman who is pre op everything meaning that I haven’t medically transitioned so I still am physically a guy but I’m planning on getting all the surgeries and hormones once I’m more financially stable. I’d also prefer if you live in Georgia as well, I can’t do long distance but I’m starting online college in May and then moving to Winter Park, Florida in October to be on campus! But I’ll make en exception for you if you’re Irish :P I’d really like to be friends at first and slowly develop a romantic relationship, I don’t want to rush into a relationship but hey anything can happen. I’m super bubbly, optimistic, funny, open minded, kind, clingy and hella sensitive (I’m a crybaby) and I will always try to spread positivity and kindness. I grew up around a lot of negativity and hatred so I strive to be the opposite of that and always wear my heart on my sleeve no matter how much being too nice hurts me. I want to mention I am mentally ill and that includes have BPD (borderline personality disorder) so it can be rough being with me so if you don’t think you can handle it that’s okay! I’ll text you back pretty much immediately if I’m not busy, I love music and sharing/discovering music, I absolutely love horror movies and all things Halloween/spooky, I have 6 tattoos and planning on getting a lot more. I have two cats, Salem and Beetlejuice who is but a wee kitten. I’m a huge stoner and I sometimes take acid/shrooms so I ask that you’re okay with that. I play a lot of video games but mostly overwatch. I play dead by daylight, Ghost Of Tsushima, apex legends but I desperately need to finish Sekiro. I recently got a ps5 as well! If you decide to message me please send a small introduction about yourself, it doesn’t have to be an essay, just a few sentences :) Hope to fear from you!

AEW Collision, Mar 1, 2025:
Kurt Angle's TNT Championship Open Challenge
[Kurt Angle decides that to celebrate his Title win, he will be giving one unlucky soul a chance to be battered, broken, and rendered unable to keep competing. Whoever accepts this challenge is in store for a career ending slaughter, where Doc Samson will force them to retire.
Kurt waits in intense arrogance before a series of tranquil chords hit in quick succession, a sinister appetizer for what's to come, the words KATSUYORI SHIBATA fill the screen, and The Wrestler himself stomps to the ring.
Shibata - Angle, face to face.
Commentary is keen to mention Shibata is one person who definitely wouldn't feel any fear in the face of a threat like that.
"Katsuyori Shibata, well this is better than I imagined it would be. Now I get to finish what God couldn't and retire you for good."
And with those words, a declaration of war has been written and signed.
Shibata is able to match Angle for grappling early, keeping Kurt guessing with a series of holds. He gets hold of Kurt's arm at one point and is able to do some fair damage with an armbar. Kurt gets frustrated with Shibata who smiles at Kurt after avoiding his umpteenth submission attempt.
Angle slaps Shibata across the face, Shibata's head goes down, his eyes go cold. He throws a boot that rocks Angle in the face, Kurt goes to the corner where Shibata meets him with repeated forearms to the mouth. Shibata runs to the opposite corner, Angle meets him there with a charging shoulder thrust to the ribs.
Angle to the opposite corner, Shibata meets him with a pump kick, Shibata to the opposite corner, Angle charges in for a rolling axe kick, Shibata moves, Angle hits the turnbuckles, Angle upside down in the corner, Shibata to the other side of the ring, Katsuyori takes a moment to compose himself, focusing his energy before charging in for a corner dropkick crushing Angle into the turnbuckles.
Shibata pulls Angle up and gets a stiff forearm, Angle returns but his dominant arm is weak from the early attack by Shibata. The two begin to trade forearms, Shibata always seeming to strike quite a bit harder.
Angle gets a flurry of right and left forearms backing Shibata up, Angle runs the ropes and Shibata gets a spin kick to the midsection before kicking at the back of Angle's knee. Shibata begins to target the not fully healed knee of Kurt now, locking figure fours and bow and arrow submissions.
Angle is reeling on the ropes after the onslaught, Shibata runs the ropes and looks for a big boot to send Angle out, Angle catches the leg, hooks around the neck and suplexes Shibata to the floor. Angle dives off the apron crushing Shibata at ringside before hitting a belly to belly suplex into the barricade.
Angle shoves Shibata back in and attempts a Moonsault, Katsuyori avoids and Angle backs into the corner where Shibata gets a big boot. He grabs Angle by the back of his neck, sprinting to the opposite side of the ring and connecting with another big boot once he plants Angle there.

Kurt climbs and lands a moonsault to the upper body and face of Shibata, crushing his skull against the canvas.
Shibata is able to answer the count, so Angle stalks a dazed Shibata. Angle Slam, Katsuyori on his feet, STO by Shibata. As Angle recovers from the STO, Shibata is able to get some breathing room from the series of throws he took. Both men get to their knees, head to head, eye to eye. They begin exchanging forearms once more, but this time Angle has a more even playing field due to the headache beginning to start for Shibata.
Angle begins mixing in uppercuts with his forearms, Shibata catches him on one of these with a backslide, Angle kicks out and Shibata greets him with a chop across the neck, spinning backfist, a trio of forearms. Angle stops reacting, and stares up at Shibata, he lets out a shout and Shibata goes for a fourth forearm. Angle ducks and pushes Shibata into the corner before dragging him out with a Rolling German Suplex planting Shibata on his head.
Shibata on his hands and knees, trying to catch his bearings and make sense of the fog in his vision. Kurt climbs and gets a picture perfect moonsault to the kneeling Shibata. Katsuyori barely gets the shoulder up, Angle stares in disbelief at the ref, leaving himself still pinned over Shibata.
Shibata latches onto the arm getting a Kimura applied on the wounded Angle. Angle writhes until he finally grasps the bottom rope to force separation. Shibata drags Angle into the center of the ring. He tees off on the shoulder blade with kicks, he slaps Angle in the back of the skull sending a cloud of perspiration flying.
Shibata calmly crosses his legs, sitting down across from the crawling Angle. Angle gets to his knees, the two begin chopping each other in the face. Shibata gets a knife edge chop to the ear of Angle, and Kurt gets enraged. He stands up and begins another forearm exchange with Shibata. Angle wins this time backing Shibata into the corner, repeated shoulder thrusts to the ribs follow, Shibata taking a seat.
Angle with a corner running dropkick of his own! Angle goes for it again, Shibata rises and looks for a pump kick, Angle catches him, hugs Shibata in and gets a fallaway belly to belly. Angle beckons Katsuyori up and runs the ropes, Shibata stops him with a leg lariat.
Angle crawls into the corner and Shibata starts repeatedly stepping on his head. Angle tries to crawl out of the ring, but gets paintbrushed with the boot of Shibata. He drowns Angle with scrapes of his boot, stomps and kicks. The referee eventually backs up Shibata.
Shibata brings Angle out of the corner with a snapmare takedown followed by a soccer kick to the spine. He runs the ropes for a penalty kick, which Kurt catches and turns into an Ankle Lock, with the leg trapped he pulls Shibata into a German Suplex.
Shibata on his hands and knees, Angle begins a waistlock and tries to bear hug Shibata on the canvas, Shibata crosses his legs in this position. Angle rolls Shibata, but he lands crossed legged again. This continues until Angle gets frustrated, Shibata begins elbowing Angle in the side of the face and Kurt releases his grip.

He maintains waist control and pulls Shibata up, Shibata begins elbowing Angle to force release. Angle grips the wrist to prevent Shibata from creating distance.
Shibata kicks him in his bad arm, and Angle lets go. He oblique kicks him in his knee before kicking away at the head of Angle. Angle desperately headbutts Shibata in the chest, igniting something in Katsuyori. Shibata turns around, takes a deep breath, turns to Angle and refuses to do what he desperately wants to, thinking of his health.
He forearms Angle down to the mat and gets an octopus hold applied, Angle scrambles to the ropes, fighting out. Penalty Kick by Shibata. Angle kicks out and Shibata locks a sleeper. A focused trance look on the face of Katsuyori as he strangles Angle.
Kurt grips the ropes to force the break, Shibata clubs the arms away, grips back on, sleeper suplex. Shibata with a spinning backfist, Angle catches the wrist, he grips the other wrist, backslide, Shibata rolls through, clothesline by Angle, ducked, Shibata ties him up in position. He spins Angle out, he readies his hand, he connects.
BitchMaker to Angle.
Kurt collapses and Shibata takes his time to catch his breath and focus up, all that focus goes into repeated, poised strikes to the shoulder, underarm and elbow of the damaged Angle. Angle grips onto the wrist to try and drag his way up, Shibata kicks his grip away. Shibata goes to run the ropes, but Angle grips onto the wrist again, avoids a clothesline attempt, traps both arms. Straight-Jacket Suplex on Shibata.
All of the weight coming down on his head and neck. Angle pulls up Shibata, German Suplex #1, Shibata begins elbowing Angle in the ear, German Suplex #2, Shibata still driving his elbow into the ear of Angle, Release German Suplex. Shibata lays motionless, blood begins trickling out of the ear of Angle, physical evidence of the desperation Shibata felt.
Angle brushes off the doctor's attempts to check on him, Kurt with an Angle Slam, but Shibata digging into the wound on the ear, Angle loses his balance, Shibata on his feet. Shibata hooks on from behind, trapping Angle's arm.
するか死ぬか
He spins Angle out, rainmaker style and closes the gap with a sickening headbutt to Kurt. Kurt collapses, but so does Shibata. He lays exhausted, head throbbing. Finally after over a minute, he musters the strength to crawl to the cover.
One, Two, Kurt kicks out. Kurt rises before Shibata who is kneeling, clutching his head. Angle pulls him up for a German, but Shibata refuses to go, clutching the back of his head and shaking his head. It's not an act of defiance or resilience, this is a man trying to stay alive.
Angle, despite having animalistic tendencies, has respect for Shibata after tonight and he shows mercy. He sends Shibata into the ropes chest first and when Katsuyori rebounds, he's caught with an Angle Slam. A cover by Kurt over the defenseless Shibata leads to one simple phrase, but one that intensifies the fullness in Shibata's head.
'And Still.']

AEW Big Business Dynamite, Mar 19, 2025:

He states that he can work circles around any NJPW darling that think they're special because they had a few flashy matches in a company nobody watches.

Kenny Omega vs Kurt Angle (c), TNT Championship
[In the weeks leading up to Dynasty, we get some good build for this match including Angle and Hobbs vs Golden Lovers in which Omega pinned Hobbs for his team, as well as a segment in which Kenny and Kurt come face to face.
Kenny in full Terminator gear, he tells Kurt that he's been a big fish in a small pond until now, and that he should be careful not to forget who the original wrestling machine is.
When it comes bell time, Angle quickly recognizes Omega as the most pure athlete he's faced to date. The speed, the intensity, the pressure. Omega brings all of it in his first title match since returning late last year to combat The New Elite.

AEW Double Or Nothing, May 24, 2025:

This brings out PAC, who comes to the rescue of his long time friend and stablemate. He gets in Angle's face and shows no intimidation as he backs Kurt up. With Double Or Nothing around the corner, Angle believes PAC will make for an excellent first victim on his way to the top of the food chain.
Angle focuses more on his submission work under the advice of Malenko, he targets the legs making it hard for PAC to execute his aerial maneuvers. PAC is able to trap Angle in the Rings Of Saturn late, but Angle finds his way out, and gets a grip on the ankle. Moments later, PAC is tapping out.]

[Following his dominant victory over PAC, Angle sets his sights on the top of the mountain and the man standing at the peak of it. Ospreay has become unanimously agreed upon as probably the best wrestler on the planet. Angle looks to disprove this theory, and take care of another NJPW castaway.

Adam Copeland & Christian Cage (c) def Kurt Angle & Powerhouse Hobbs to retain the AEW Tag Team Championships
AEW All Out, Sep 6, 2025:
Bryan Danielson vs Kurt Angle w/ Dean Malenko
[Just two weeks removed from a victory over long time rival, Nigel McGuiness, Danielson is riding high and wants the most intense competition possible for All Out.
Naturally, this attracts Kurt Angle, a man who has never been submitted, yet has an incredible string of submission victories. He challenges Danielson's claims to be the best technical wrestler in the world, and promises to tap out The Dragon.
Throughout the dream contest, Angle targets and does significant damage to the knee and ankle of Bryan. Bryan attempts to apply similar limb targeting to the previously injured arm of Angle. With both men's history of neck issues, there's plenty of nasty envelope pushes in that department as well.
Bryan looks for a Busaiku Knee late when Angle catches him and gets a powerbomb reversal, he then applies a Boston Crab, squeezing the Achilles Tendon of Danielson. Bryan is able to edge to his back and roll Angle into a pin.
Kurt kicks out, and Danielson lands a roundhouse to a kneeling Angle, leaving him lamenting himself after he feels the effect on his leg. He pulls Angle up for a Dragon Suplex, but Angle breaks the grip and gets a Snapmare Takedown.
Bryan lands on his feet and begins blistering Angle with repeated kicks to the chest, wincing after every one. He finally backs up and tries for the roundhouse, but Kurt catches him in an Ankle Lock.
Kurt twists away at the squirming Danielson, who is able to turn just enough to start landing up-kicks to the bad shoulder of Angle. Danielson then gets a Triangle, pulling Angle in to the submission.
He traps the bad arm and begins striking away at the shoulder socket with elbows. Angle powers up, lifting Danielson before dumping him into the turnbuckles, crumpling Bryan into the corner.
Angle whips Bryan into the corner and he performs a Springboard Moonsault, landing on his bad ankle. Kurt slithers in and cinches an Ankle Lock in yet again. Bryan rolls out and gets a LeBell Lock applied, the bad arm of Angle angled awkwardly. Kurt makes the ropes and Bryan fires up into the corner.
He beckons Kurt up and closes the distance with a Busaiku Knee, Angle ducks, Bryan's bad knee hits the top turnbuckle! Angle Slam connects!
Kurt covers and in doing so obtains the single biggest victory of his career so far. An incredible effort from both men, and an incredible step forward for Kurt Angle.]
Kurt Angle def Bryan Danielson
AEW WrestleDream, Oct 11, 2025:
Bryan Danielson vs Kurt Angle w/ Dean Malenko vs Zack Sabre Jr., Ultimate Submission
[A victory over Bryan Danielson should have Kurt on cloud nine, but he can't help feel disappointed that he didn't deliver on his promise. He didn't tap Bryan out. He challenges Danielson, one more match, a thirty minute timer, no pinfalls, most submissions wins.
Rather than Danielson, it's NJPW's resident technical wizard, Zack Sabre Jr. who answers the call. He states that him and Angle have unfinished business. In the G1 Climax last year, Zack had Angle on the brink of submission but just as Kurt was about to give in, his body gave out and he passed out instead.
Zack has kept that goal in the back of his head since, to make the unsubmittable Kurt Angle tap out. Kurt says that he has great respect for Sabre Jr. but right now he is focused on Danielson.
Bryan enters and states a solution, a triple threat match, under Angle's proposed rules of course, to finally determine who the best technical wrestler in the world is.
Match time arrives and all three men feel the pressure in the air. Three of the most technically gifted pro wrestlers of all time engaged in a war for a chance to finally be crowned the undisputed king of tapping people out.
Twenty five minutes of pure grappling glory elapse, and despite some close calls, none of the three competitors have submitted. With five minutes remaining, all three men are volatile in their pursuit to finally get a point.
Bryan looks for a diving knee strike, when Kurt catches him and cinches an Ankle Lock. Danielson rolls forward and Zack leaps onto the shoulders of Kurt, ranas him to the canvas and locks a mounting triangle.
Bryan with a roundhouse to Zack, pulling him off of Kurt, Bryan proceeds to lock Cattle Mutilation on Sabre who kicks and struggles to survive the maneuver.
Kurt out of nowhere with a Moonsault to Danielson! The grip on Sabre Jr. released, Zack rolls out of the ring. Kurt focuses on Danielson, landing his trio of German Suplexes, Bryan on his feet during the third attempt.
Busaiku Knee, Kurt ducks just enough to catch Bryan across his shoulders. Torture Rack applied on Danielson, bending Bryan over his shoulders. Bryan shifts off the shoulders and locks a Guillotine on Angle, trying to cut off blood flow to the brain.
Angle attempts to reverse with a Northern Lights, but Bryan lands on his feet and maintains grip, forming a bridging guillotine. Zack slithers in, kicking Bryan in the knee and causing Danielson to kneel while keeping the Guillotine applied.
Zack gets a Triangle on Bryan while Bryan has a reverse Guillotine on Kurt, after a few moments, Bryan has to cut his losses with Kurt and try to escape Sabre's grip.
He inches free of the Triangle, getting grip on the legs for a Boston Crab. He tucks the legs and bridges back for a modified Muta Lock. He gives up and applies a seated Guillotine. No matter what Bryan does, Sabre fights on, less than a minute remains when Bryan locks the LeBell Lock.
He drives his knuckles into the nose of Sabre, eventually garnering color, as the crimson begins to leak into his mouth. Danielson covers the mouth and nose with his hands, seconds remain when Kurt rushes in to save the match.
Zack Sabre Jr. is drowning in his own blood.
Three, Two, Sabre Jr. taps!
With one second on the clock, Danielson forces a submission, Kurt was fingertips away from saving the match-up. Sabre Jr. is released and inhales big, gulping breathe, bile and blood leaking from his mouth. Angle gets to his feet and approaches Danielson.
A handshake follows as Bryan Danielson is acknowledged as the Ultimate Submission Master in one of the greatest displays of technical wrestling ever.]
Bryan Danielson def Kurt Angle & Zack Sabre Jr. in Ultimate Submission
What isn't made clear at the time is that this actually serves as Kurt Angle's AEW farewell. He bids farewell to Malenko, telling him to watch over Hobbs for him and vice versa with Hobbs. Less than a month later, his contract expires and he opts not to resign. Questions begin to flare up about where Kurt Angle may turn up next, rumors even begin to circulate that he may be done with professional wrestling for the foreseeable future.
Remember that thing about death and taxes?
WWE Royal Rumble, Jan 31, 2026:
[The Royal Rumble arrives, and as with any given Rumble, who knows what surprises may be in store?
The Men's Rumble match is occuring when entry number twenty-seven is about to be revealed. Medal sounds and the roof comes off of Kaseya Center as the words KURT ANGLE pan across the titantron. The Olympic Hero has arrived.
Angle racks up a couple of eliminations, tossing Johnny Gargano after a fun sequence and Shinsuke Nakamura after an exchange of strikes. Angle comes face to face with AJ Styles who engages in a staredown with The Wrestling Machine.
Before they can lock up, both men are ambushed by other participants, delaying the dream match. Kurt makes it to the final six, but runs into a brick wall when he attempts to eliminate Bron Breakker.
A back and forth of control ends with Breakker on top, landing a belly to belly over the top rope to eliminate Kurt Angle.]
SmackDown, Feb 6, 2026:
John Cena's Open Challenge
[Cena, entering the twilight of his career, goes back to his old open challenge routine, wanting to face as many young superstars as he can before he calls it a career.
His first of these challenges is answered by Kurt Angle himself, who comes face to face with the established Cena. In just his second WWE match, Angle wants to lock up with the GOAT.
Cena, perplexed and expecting a talent on the roster that he was familiar with to appear, poses a reasonable question.
"Who in the hell are you?"
'I'm Kurt Angle'
"Kurt Angle, huh? Tell me, what is the one quality that you possess that makes you think you can come out here and challenge the very best?"
Angle pauses, somehow, he knows exactly what to say.
'Ruthless Aggression.'
Angle clocks Cena and the bell rings, Angle's WWE debut and he has a chance to show that ruthless aggression against one of the most reputable names in wrestling history.
Cena starts out the contest believing Angle will be an easy foe and taking time to pander to the audience. It doesn't take long though for Kurt to gain his respect with a surprise German Suplex while Cena is standing on the middle turnbuckle.
Angle begins to unload with a variety of kick variations and suplexes, wobbling Cena. Cena avoids a Moonsault and lands a Code Red for a near fall.
He beckons Angle up for an Attitude Adjustment, and Angle shifts off the shoulders to begin his trio of German Suplexes. He bridge pins on the third and Cena muscles out.
Angle looks for an Ankle Lock, but Cena rolls free. Attitude Adjustment positioning, Angle lands on his feet. Another German Suplex connects and Angle rolls through, lifting Cena into an emphatic Angle Slam.
Cena narrowly manages to kick out. Angle sizes Cena up for one more Angle Slam, Cena escapes to his feet, Attitude Adjustment, Angle shifts into a roll-up on Cena.
Three seconds later, and Angle has defeated the 16x World Champion in his WWE debut. A shocked Cena watches as Angle takes his place as a hot commodity in WWE.]
Kurt Angle def John Cena
It's not long after this that Kurt finds himself some teammates. During a bout with Akira Tozawa and Apollo Crews of WorldWide, the team of Cedric Alexander and Damon Kemp receive some unexpected assistance from Kurt Angle.
Following the bout, Angle approaches Alexander and Kemp, shortly thereafter, forming Team Angle.
WWE WrestleMania 42 - Night 1, Apr 11, 2026:
AJ Styles vs Kurt Angle
[Ever since their unsatisfying face off at the Royal Rumble, fans and these two alike have been eager to get a proper match made. Angle wants a legacy fight for WrestleMania, another name to engrave on his record.
AJ Styles refuses to be viewed as someone to be put out to pasture and tells Angle to bring his intensity, bring his intelligence, bring his integrity and then come to terms with the fact that it still won't be enough.
Angle tries for an Angle Slam after Styles misses a Springboard 450, Styles maneuvers his way over and into Styles Clash position only for Angle to grip the ankle and turn it into an Ankle Lock.
Styles writhes and tries to make the ropes, but Angle drags him back into the center of the ring and sits down into a knee bar - ankle lock fusion forcing Styles to submit to The Wrestling Machine.]
Kurt Angle def AJ Styles
WWE Backlash, May 23, 2026:
Cody Rhodes vs Kurt Angle
[Following his massive victory over AJ Styles at WrestleMania, Angle and his posse set their sights on another established vet, Cody Rhodes.
Angle tells Rhodes that Kurt is everything Cody has claimed to be, at Backlash he'll expose Cody as a fraud and show him who the true American Nightmare is.
It's a hotly contested affair with Cody, less than a year removed from his World Title run, putting Kurt to the test. Cody is in the driver's seat when a ref bump leads Cedric and Kemp to interfere, Kemp is neutralized before Cedric inadvertently lays Angle out.
Cross Rhodes to Cedric, and another one to Kurt and Rhodes has pinned The Olympic Hero.]
Cody Rhodes def Kurt Angle
WWE King & Queen Of The Ring, Jun 27, 2026:
Damian Priest vs Kurt Angle
[Kurt enters into the King Of The Ring tournament following his loss to Rhodes, but not before kicking Cedric out of Team Angle. He's replaced by a man Angle knows well, the debuting Josh Alexander.
While Josh and Kemp pick up the tag team titles, Angle focuses in on the tournament. He is able to defeat Rey Mysterio in the first round, Dragon Lee in the second, Pete Dunne in the quarters, and Cedric in the semis.
Damian, meanwhile wins the RAW bracket and the finals are set. The Punisher vs The Wrestling Machine.
In a vein very similar to what an Angle/Undertaker match looks like, Priest muscles around Angle, only for Kurt to surprise him with his own strength. Angle works on the leg, rendering Priest's kicking ability useless and kneading him for the eventual Ankle Lock.
Damian looks for Razor's Edge, powering through the pain in his leg. As he chucks Angle, Kurt reverses with a huracanrana taking Priest off guard. Angle begins his trio of Germans, on the third attempt, Priest maneuvers free and gets a Thunder Clap on Angle.
He sets up for The Reckoning, but Angle hits a Southern Lights Suplex, sending Priest forward to the canvas. Angle gets an Angle Slam for a near-fall.
A Moonsault follows, but Priest gets a grip across the throat as Kurt comes down. He lands South Of Heaven for a close two count. Damian sizes up Kurt from across the ring.
Tornado Kick, intercepted, Kurt locks onto the ankle! Priest tries to roll out, kick Kurt away, but Angle is relentless and vice grips around the ankle, torturing Damian.
Priest eventually passes out from the pain, giving Angle a victory, albeit one he's only slightly satisfied with. Regardless of how, Kurt has won King Of The Ring and will now main event SummerSlam for the World Heavyweight Championship.]
Kurt Angle def Damian Priest
WWE Battleground, Jul 25, 2026:
Brock Lesnar vs Kurt Angle
[Brock, having returned in the Royal Rumble earlier in the year and announcing a retirement tour, culminating at SummerSlam in his hometown, sets his sights on Kurt Angle.
Kurt, one month away from main eventing SummerSlam, accepts Brock's challenge, dubbing him one more legend Kurt can send packing.
The match is evidently very intense with Brock showing his trademark dominance and Angle impressing with bursts of strength and out-grappling Lesnar.
Towards the climax of the match, both men begin exchanging German Suplexes. Brock eventually decides to do the continuous trio ala Kurt. Angle lands on his feet on the third attempt and rolls Brock into a deadlift German Suplex.
Kurt scales for a Moonsault, but Brock catches him in mid-air for an F-5, Kurt scrambles free and gets an Ankle Lock applied. Brock is able to fight out, applying a Kimura Lock. Kurt makes it to the ropes and Brock gets fed up.
Lesnar goes to the top turnbuckle for the first time in decades and attempts a Shooting Star Press. Kurt moves and Lesnar eats canvas, Angle immediately jumps onto the leg of Brock applying an agonizing Ankle Lock.
After minutes of Kurt's snake-like refusal to release his grip, he does what few have ever been able to do and makes The Beast tap out. After the bout, Brock shakes the hand of Kurt Angle and Kurt looks ahead to his titanic Heavyweight Title opportunity.]
Kurt Angle def Brock Lesnar
As Angle approaches war at SummerSlam, he decides that Team Angle needs an advisor. Someone that can guide them to their ultimate goal of every member holding gold. He says for three of the best technical wrestlers in the world, their advisor must be of a similar status.
He enlists none other than The Excellence Of Execution, The Hitman is in Team Angle. Bret coaches Kurt in the lead-up to SummerSlam, giving him tips and reviewing old tapes showing how he won his Titles.

2024.05.28 20:31 staCkcalB October trip, thoughts?

Let me preface this with thank you for taking your time to look and for any input you have. I know this is a wall of text and a lot to process.
In mid-October I (36f) and my mother (63f) are traveling to Ireland. We will be flying in and out of Dublin. We are planning to spend 3 nights each in 4 different locations: Kilkenny, Killarney, Galway, and Dublin. We will have a rental car (with GPS) until we return to Dublin. Ireland is one of my bucket list locations, so I’m very excited.
I am laid back and enjoy leisurely pursuits, but can stand walking a good bit. My mother has had lumbar spine and cervical surgery and, while able to walk and get around well for the most part, does not do well with a lot of walking/exertion. Her favorite thing to do is to sit and people watch. (Bonus points if you’re aware of locations that provide wheelchairs or are readily wheelchair accessible – I’m not above purchasing one to carry around while there if it’ll allow my mom more access).
I’m interested in suggestions and feedback on our tentative itinerary – this is our first solo trip, and first international trip together. Nothing other than the 3 nights in each of the locations listed is written in stone. I’ve packed a lot into the itinerary, but I understand we might want to cut some things out and just rest some days. I’ve put a "+" on the attractions we’re (read “I’m”) most interested in. If you see anything you would worry about my mother getting around to do, please don’t hesitate to say so (are the national parks worth visiting with her restrictions?). She won’t mind sitting and people watching while I explore, but we certainly would like to spend time together for the most part.
As I said, we’re novice international travelers, so here’s some other questions I have:
  1. I plan on purchasing Heritage Ireland cards that some of the locations take to help save on entrance costs. Any other suggestions?
  2. What/where is the best place to exchange US dollars for local currency?
  3. Does anyone have any suggestions about a smartphone with Google maps access and international phone calls there? My current service provider doesn’t offer international coverage (even for an extra fee). Is this something I could purchase a SIM card for when we arrive and just use my phone? I could switch service to AT&T, which has an add-on fee ($10 daily) for international use. I’m aware we can use wifi where available for free, but I don’t feel comfortable without full time access to maps or phone calls.
  4. I’ve also listed some suggested places I’ve seen to eat/visit at the bottom – I’m very open to little known suggestions (neither my mother nor I drink alcohol, so pubs for music or atmosphere are welcome, but not interested in drinks). Also, I’m a book wyrm, so any suggested book shops or libraries, please do tell.

2024.05.28 18:52 Jesuscan23 I’m confused. 23andme and ancestry results are very different

So on 23andme I got 52% British/Irish with the vast majority of my regions being Irish, then I got 45% German on 23andme which makes sense. On ancestry though I get 75% England and northwestern Europe, 15% Scottish and 3% Irish, I know that Germany gets lumped into England and NW Europe but I’m confused about the Irish because my dad gets a large amount of Irish on ancestry and most of my ancestors on my dads side came from Ireland and most of them came from west/south Ireland not Northern Ireland. I have gotten large amounts of Irish on every single test I’ve ever done except for ancestry. 23andme even got my regions for my Irish ancestry correct.
Can anyone help me sort this out I’m extremely confused. Can Irish ancestry get lumped into the broader England and NW Europe? 23andme was extremely accurate and more precise and matches to my family records very well, ancestry was extremely vague and basically lumped 3/4ths of my DNA into England and NW Europe. And how is ancestry so horrible for Germanic DNA? 23andme detected 42% vs ancestry’s 3%. Someone in another thread suggested that if you have for example, a mostly Irish dad and a mostly German mom (like I do according to every other test and on paper) that ancestry could incorrectly label that as England and NW Europe because you’d have a mix of Germanic and Celtic genes

2024.05.28 18:36 Astralweak Naming a baby girl

Trying to name a baby girl due in December, our first child. Our surname is just like Morrison but ends in -ey. Looking for input on these names as well as new ideas. Ideally, I’d have a few first/middle combos ready by the time she’s born so we can see what suits her. I expect her personality will be stubborn, funny, clever, creative, and a little weird in her tastes and ideas.
Culture: We live in the US. I’m of Irish descent and am fond of Irish/very Catholic names, and my husband is Mexican and would like her name to not be too difficult for his monolingual parents to pronounce and/or for her first or middle name to have a Spanish equivalent that they could call her if they want. I struggle with some Spanish pronunciation so that’s a limiting factor.
Style: I’d describe my style as basically traditional and maybe ornate? His taste is a little more contemporary than mine but he’s willing to humor me. He does love American history so that’s a possible angle. I love the idea of a name that’s a little stern and detached from time. Saints names and names with a lot of history are great. I have a very unusual virtue name and my experience of having an uncommon (but intelligible) name has been very positive. I’m not opposed to her going by her middle name socially (eg Mary Irene, commonly going by Irene). Throw me some eccentric options.
Right now we both really like Mary Frances. I think the compound name is pretty charming and Fen or Mare are cute nicknames.
My husband especially loves: * Maria Helena (he really likes the idea of calling her Marilena, which is cute but I’m not totally sold- it doesn’t sound as natural when I say it and it’s a little girly for my taste) * Vicenta (honor name) * Irene * Hope * June * Niamh * Dolores * Theodosia
I love (and he isn’t as crazy about): * Joan (baby called Joanie sounds excellent to me, but he’s resistant to Juana as the Spanish form) * Iona (I think Io is a great nickname, he correctly acknowledges it’s a little pretentious) * Isolde/Iseult * Deirdre * Mercy * Iris
Not quite front runners but love them anyways: * Leocadia * Mairead * Parthenia * Etain * Fionnuala * Róisín * Elanor * Ianthe * Beata * Olimpia * Otillia * Ursula * Arden (can’t use) * Mebh (can’t use) * Margaret (can’t use) * Rosemary (can’t use) * Louise (can’t use) * Catherine or related names (can’t use)
Dislikes: includes names that might be categorized as contemporary, cute or spunky (eg Luna, Hazel, Nova, Zoey, Kinsley, Aubree, Everleigh), traditionally male or surnames (Morgan, Reagan, Mackenzie), pop culture references (Leia, Arwen, Arya), names that were especially popular in 1960s-1990s (Donna, Denise, Jennifer, Jessica), or are currently/recently very in vogue (Sophia, Isla, Emily). Names that naturally lend to a nickname of Ella or Izzy are somewhat deprioritized, and I’d prefer at least one of her names to be not especially flowery or feminine sounding (which is unfortunate because I’ve found a lot of Spanish names to be a little fussy for me). Our baby has a very good chance of being born during the week before or after Christmas, but I have generally negative feelings towards winter or Christmas themed names (Holly, Noelle, Eve, Ivy, Carol, Stella, Natalie, etc- Mary and Isolde are exceptions to this). I often don’t care for names ending in an A, though there are many exceptions. I get a lot of complaints that I’m too picky but in my defense, we only need like one to three names!

2024.05.28 18:02 amberale7 Universal Studios Japan: My Experience, Tips, and Lessons Learned

I visited USJ recently for the first time. I went on a Saturday (crazy I know!), but it was the only time that worked with my schedule.
I purchased the Express Pass 7 Variety for 19,800 Yen or about $126 USD. This was in addition to the 8,800 Yen or about $56 USD just to get into the park. Expensive, but absolutely worth it. I’m actually amazed at how much I was able to get in throughout the day, which wouldn’t have been remotely possible without it. I also hate waiting in lines and am fairly impatient when it comes to them. If it’s an option for you, definitely splurge. If not, definitely do not go on a weekend (I’ve heard Tuesday and Wednesday are best) and try to take advantage of single rider queues.
Below is the timeline of my day with some lessons learned, tips, ratings, commentary, etc. Hopefully somebody finds it helpful/interesting!
6:50 am - Arrived at park entrance for an “8:30 opening”. The line was to the kiosks at this point.
7:00 am - They started letting in people with early entry
7:30 am - They started letting everybody else into the park (1 hour before the posted opening, which is typical). I made it through the bag check and into the park in about 10 minutes.
7:40 am - I headed for the Demon Slayer ride since this wasn’t included in my express pass. I tried to get timed entry to Super Nintendo World while walking, but they weren’t available yet. I got to the lockers for Demon Slayer and found out you needed a 100 yen coin. I had read this, but totally forgot and of course didn’t have one! I went to the Demon Slayer merchandise store and they were able to give me change, but this delayed me by ~ 5 minutes.
7:55 am - Demon Slayer (Single Rider). 8.5/10. I thought I had read they didn’t have single rider for Demon Slayer so this was a nice surprise. The sign had a 70 minute single rider wait time posted, but I was through the queue and finished with the ride in 50 minutes. I have never seen Demon Slayer (my nephew loves it and I so wish he had been with me!), but it was really neat and well done. I did feel a little sick after due the VR nature, but I am really sensitive with motion sickness.
8:45 am - Grabbed my stuff from the lockers and tried again for a SNW timed entry (I had left my phone in the locker since I didn’t have pockets). By this time the earliest entry available was 1pm. Since I already had entry with my express pass at 12:40 pm, I passed. Ideally I was hoping for a 9:30 am or so entry so I could experience it with less crowds, but oh well!
9:00 am - Walked over to Jaws, but the single rider queue was closed so I decided to use my express pass for Hollywood Dream instead. On the way to Hollywood Dream I walked past the Mario Cafe and decided to stop for one of the pancake sandwiches first. I waited about 5-10 minutes in line and ordered the Luigi No Bake Cheescake sandwich. It was SO cute and honestly really delicious. This was 900 Yen or about $6 USD.
9:30 am - Hollywood Dream (Express Pass). 9/10. I got right through and waited no more than 5 minutes. Really fun roller coaster and definitely had my adrenaline going after this!
9:45 am - Wandered past Jaws again, but still no single rider queue so I decided to walk through NYC and SF and then into the Minion area.
10:15 am - Minion Crazy Ride (Express pass). 8/10. This one was probably about a 10 minute wait. Cute and fun ride, but definitely had some motion sickness again. I’ve also never seen Minions, but they are adorable! Kinda want to watch it now Lol
10:35 am - Checked the app for a SNW time entry again and was able to secure one for 8pm just in case I didn’t get to everything during my express pass timed entry and wanted to go back at the end of the night.
10:45 am - Flying Dinosaur (Express Pass). 10/10. Essentially walked on other than the ticket checks throughout the line, lockers, and metal detectors. Amazing roller coaster, but for me, honestly REALLY scary and out of my comfort zone (especially the part going backwards and underground). But I like getting out of my comfort zone and so worth it for the adrenaline :)
11:10 am - Jaws Ride (Single Rider). 7/10. Decided to head to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter for lunch, but I checked Jaws on my way and the single rider queue was finally open! I think it had just opened because I was the first in line and literally walked on the first boat, zero wait!
11:35 am - Lunch at Three Broomsticks. I waited in line for probably about 15 minutes. Really cool theming in this restaurant! I ordered the Vegetable Irish Stew, a coffee, and of course a Butter Beer! This came out to around $20 USD. The food was fairly average, but not bad by any means and I was grateful for a plant based option. Loved the Butter Beer and the coffee was much needed pick me up!
12:30 pm - Arrived at Super Nintendo World for my 12:40 timed entry with my express pass. I got in 10 minutes early without a problem and went straight to Kinopio’s Cafe to get a timed entry slot. There is a QR code you scan and then make the reservation using Email or Line. However, it requires use of your location and for some reason it was not working on my phone! I tried for probably 5 minutes before asking a staff member. They tried to change a setting on my phone, but it still didn’t work. Fortunately, they were able to make the reservation for me on their IPad. I just had to give them my email and name. I got timed entry for 3:30 pm (!) so nearly 3 hours later. This was fine for me as I planned to spending significant time in Super Nintendo World and had already eaten, but something to be aware of!
1:00 pm - Mario Kart: Koopa’s Challenge (Express Pass). 9/10. This one was the longest wait of the day using the express pass. At the point when you get the Mario cap you join the regular queue. It was probably about a 20 minute wait from that point. Walking through Bowser’s castle was incredibly cool. The theming and attention to detail is literally amazing!! In hindsight I wish I would have let the people behind me pass and walked slower through the castle. The ride was also a ton of fun and really well done! Childhood dreams come true (I’m a huge Mario fan)!
1:30 pm - Decided to buy the power up band before riding Yoshi’s Adventure. I should have done this before riding Mario Kart, but I didn’t want to miss my timed entry (I doubt they are that strict, but in the moment I didn’t want to take the chance). I got Kinopio/Toad :) The band was 4900 Yen or about $32 USD. This is well circulated knowledge, but don’t buy the band from the first couple of stands. You can buy them once you get further inside with short to no queues.
1:40 pm - Yoshi’s Adventure (Express Pass). 7/10. I think I waited about 10 minutes for this. I know this ride gets a lot of flack, but for what it is, I really enjoyed it. I loved just sitting back and taking all that is SNW in. I had a smile on my face the whole time. However, I probably wouldn’t wait for it if I didn’t have an Express Pass.
2:00 pm - Mario Kart: Koopa’s Challenge again (Single Rider). The wait time was only 30 minutes. This time, with a bit of experience, I ended up winning! Woot, woot :) Just as fun the 2nd time around and if I had more time I would have went again. Something to note, with the single rider queue you miss almost the entirety of Bowser’s Castle before the ride.
2:40 pm - Wandered around the land a bit collecting coins, taking it all in, and played the Thwomp Panel Panic (10 minute wait) and Koopa Troopa POWer Punch (20 minute wait) mini games.
3:30 pm - Finally time for my timed entry at Kinopio’s Cafe. Even with the timed entry I still had to wait in line for 20+ minutes to order and be seated. I ordered the “? Block Tiramisu” and a coffee which came out to around $9 USD I think. The tiramisu was absolutely adorable, but was pretty average taste wise. The cafe itself is also super cute and the staff were incredibly friendly. The waitress insisted on taking my picture and was such a joy. This was a much needed rest for my feet!
4:30 pm - Piranha Plant Nap Mishap (10 minute wait) and Goomba Crazy Prank (30 minute wait) mini games.
5:15 pm - Now with my keys in hand, I head over to the Bowser Jr. Shadow Showdown to get back Peach’s rightful Golden Mushroom (< 5 minute wait). This was so fun!! I already think the power up band was worth it, but this sealed the deal on that question.
5:30 pm - Slot Machine Game (10 minute wait). I was always really good at this one on the video games so I loved getting the chance to try in real life and I nailed it! 4x Mushrooms, woot woot! What fun!
6:00 pm - Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey (Express Pass). 9.5/10. Wait time was 10-15 minutes, but the theming before the ride here was incredible, on par with Mario Kart and (surprise!) I’ve never seen Harry Potter either Lol Although, subtle brag, I have met Dan Radcliffe and have his autograph.. nicest human ever :) If you are a Harry Potter fan, I’m sure you would lose your mind with this pre-show and ride. The ride itself was mind blowing, my favorite VR ride of the day, although once again this one made me a bit sick.
6:30 pm - Fight of the Hippogriff (Express Pass). 3/10. ~10 minute wait. At this point in the day I was exhausted, and to be honest, I could have skipped this ride. I had read it was underwhelming, but I just couldn’t convince myself to skip it because I “paid” for the Express Pass. I studied Economics, I should be the last person to fall for the sunk cost fallacy ;) I got to sit in the first row so that was cool, but yeah, it’s quite short and very mild. The views of Hogwarts (?) was cool though!
6:50 pm - Back to Three Broomsticks for a sunset Butter Beer over the lake (and a cheeky Kind Bar I snuck in.. shhh). 800 yen or about $5 USD. Beautiful :)
7:20 pm - Flying Dinosaur again (Single Rider). Wait was ~30 minutes. Mustered up the courage to go on this one again and end my day with a BANG! Just as fun.. and just as scary the second time Haha
8:00 pm - Decision time… back to SNW or no? I was knackered and had already defeated Bowser Jr. so I decide to call it a day and go get some food outside the park. Made may way through the park to the exit, ejoying the night time vibes and reminiscing on what a crazy awesome day I just had!
In the end, I was able to ride 11 rides and complete all of the mini games in Super Nintendo World. It was a long, exhausting 13+ hour day, but so, so worth it!
I spent about $255 USD total which included Park Entrance, the 7 ride Express Pass, Food/Drink, and the Power Up Band. Worth every penny in my opinion.
Side note: something else that makes USJ really special is the attitude of all the Japanese staff. They were so friendly and happy and the vibes were just amazing. In SNW especially, they really bought into the theme (Here we go!). I’ve never been to Hollywood or Orlando so I don’t know if it’s the same there, but they were wonderful. Shout out to you all for making my day even better :)
If anybody has questions, please let me know and I will try to help as best as I can!
Lastly, some additional information on SNW that might help others: if you don’t have the express pass, you need to get to the park early (like I did). When you get into the park go straight to SNW and you will likely be able to walk in. If you can’t walk in, get on the app and get a timed entry. The timed entry tickets become available as soon as it’s full from walk-ins.

2024.05.28 17:03 moondrop-madhatter Boomer thought knowing about Québec made me “worldly”

More than anything, I hope you get a laugh out of this one. For background, I’m an Australian who’s just completed a working holiday in Ireland, and was most recently working in a hotel bar.
I was on the closing shift, Monday night, so I was by myself past 10pm. We had a handful of guests in at the end of the evening, when a Boomer from America (we’ll call him NCB for short) came in and asked for a Whiskey. I ran him through the options, and we settled on an Oak Cask finish Irish Whiskey. I catch his accent so I ask him where he’s from, “North Carolina.” (Hence NCB)
He proceeds to ask me if I’m South African, English, Irish, until I just politely smile and say “No, I’m from Australia- just on a working holiday.” Cue the “land down under” jokes.
We get to talking to kill my time before I can start asking folks to leave for closing, and he’s telling me about his work, and how he travels so much for it- I think “fantastic, I love travel, I wonder if he has any good stories before we close!” So I ask him where he’s been, and he says “Oh- too many places to count… I just finished in India, I’ve been to England, now Ireland… California, Texas, Washington, Nebraska, Hawaii,” the list goes on. The remaining list being other American states.
NCB won’t stop talking, and won’t stop drinking, until he finally tells me about his wife- “She’s from- well, you probably don’t know where this is but, Québec.” I could have just about laughed in his face, “I know where Québec is.”
NCB looks at me again with the smuggest expression I’ve ever seen, and “Oh yeah? Where is it?” I plainly said “Canada.” If I could describe the look on his face it would have been condescendingly impressed and irritated all at once, and he kind of scoffed and said “Well aren’t we worldly?”
Mate, what world do you think we’re living in where you’re the only man who knows about fucking Québec??? I don’t know if he thought I was an idiot or what, but it just struck me as bizarre. He was harmless as far as Boomers go, but oh so condescending.

2024.05.28 16:34 Potatoskewer22 [24/M] - Searching for the "one" isn't easy but hey! Patience is a virtue..... or something like that

You know what they say, if at first you don't succeed....... ehhhh something or another. You get the point!
(P.S. pictures of me on my profile)
Searching for the "one" isnt easy, but what can we do aye? First things first, to throw some random bits of info out there about me! (Info dump incoming 😂)
I'm 24 and biracial! Half Irish and half African/northern Indian, and I'm living in the UK!
I'm approximately 6'0"-6'1" in height and id say an average/kept build. I also have somewhat long-ish hair for a guy, going near my shoulders, it's naturally straight! I also have a well kept somewhat shorter and neat beard :) I also have very fair skin. I guess I took physically more from one side of my heritage 😂🤌 I'm also a Muslim lad! So just putting that out there too for the sake of it.
I do enjoy binging on junk food but between my high metabolism and my physically active job working as an electrician (which I'm trying to fully establish myself in) I tend to never put any weight on 🤷
So! What am I looking for? Well it's a long shot. I'd like to imagine something like the female version of myself. My other half. Someone I find attractive, kind, easy going, fun to get along with, can hold a conversation without making it feel like a one sided effort and chore. Etc!
Important note!!!
IF you are not from the UK. Be aware relocating doesn't appear to be an option for me currently 😅 so bear that in mind please. I am open to a potential long distance but again. There's that.
I guess I'm the hopeless romantic type. Fantasising about soulmates, something real, serious, natural and everything great. Is that easy to obtain these days? Bruh. HECK no 😭 but can a guy try? Well, here's to hoping I suppose. Guess only time will tell
Anyone between the ages of 20-27 is welcome! Anyone who wants to actually get to know each other and dreams about something sincere and real! (With some fun stupidity and jokes thrown in there of course, that banter is a must🗿👍)
I like a woman with a little bit of confidence ya know? Probably one of the most attractive personality traits, who can hold a conversation and engage with the other person you know? Nothing more off putting than someone who gives single worded dead replies lol
Here's a bit more about me. My hobbies! my hobbies are various. I'd argue I'm an ambivert. Though my main hobbies lean towards something a little more introverted. You have hiking and the likes as well as going out with friends and driving around at night with them, but then you also have gaming which is a huge hobby of mine!! Well probably the thing I do most consistently
So yeah! There's my shot being let out. I'd say I consider myself to be an honest and open book and would like someone who is open, honest and genuine in the same way!
Oh! And my preferred platform is Snap! Though I have one or two other things (:
So. Here's to hoping!

2024.05.28 16:13 redlight886 February 1998 PLAYBOY interview with Conan

PLAYBOY Interview With Conan O'Brien Interview by Kevin Cook For Playboy Magazine February 1998 Part 3
Playboy: Now that you're doing so well do you worry about losing your edge? O'Brien: I fear being a victim of success. It's seductive. You have new choices. "Conan, Sylvester Stallone wants to be on, but we're already booked." My feeling is that I must say no to Stallone. "Sorry, Sly. Bob Denver's on that night.
Playboy: How's your relationship with NBC executives now that the show is a success? O'Brien: Better. But I have not forgotten the bad old days. Let me tell you about one executive. He's no longer with the company. I had him killed. But in our darker days he came to the set one night after we did a great show. I come off after the show and this guy says, "Wow, that was terrible." He thought the show should look like MTV. "Run into the audience and tell jokes. Run up to a guy, have him shout his name, get everybody cheering."
Playboy: You didn't agree apparently. O'Brien: Too much of television is energy with no purpose. People going "Whoo!" But that's just empty energy. That's American Gladiators. I often try to lower the energy, especially when school is out and college kids are here. They're huge fans, they're psyched, but we're a quirky comedy show, not MTV Spring Break.
Playboy: Were you thrilled when the Marv Albert sex case hit the news? O'Brien: Oh man, was I into Marv. I would love to trick you into thinking I'm high-minded, but that story made me think, My God, yes, I'll use this, and this... But it bothered me the way he was publicly vilified. People were getting off on the kinky stuff; they condemned Marv for wearing women's clothing, which isn't a crime.
Playboy: Yet tonight you did a Marv Albert joke. You said Marv had a new job as a mannequin at Victoria's Secret. O'Brien: You can be uncomfortable with it and still use it. Isn't that what guilt is all about?
Playboy: What comedy bits do you regret doing? O'Brien: We did one with a character called Randy the Pyloric Sphincter. Now, the point of the joke is that this is not the sphincter that excrement passes through. The pyloric sphincter is at the top of the digestive tract. It basically keeps acid from going up into the oesophagus.
We had a guy in a sphincter costume and a cowboy hat. He says, "Hi kids, I'm Randy the Pyloric Sphincter. No, not that bad sphincter! When food passes through me, it isn't digested yet." He then proceeds to squeeze foods that look like shit whether they're digested or not. Chocolate. Picture a sphincter exuding a huge chocolate bar. We were grossing people out.
Playboy: So why put Randy on the air? O'Brien: I just loved the fact that he wore a cowboy hat.
Playboy: What sorts of bits do you refuse to do? O'Brien: Arbitrary humor. "Here's the sketch: Conan jumps into a barrel of wheat germ." I'll ask him what the joke is. "It's crazy, that's all."
Look, I was a comedy writer. I've been through this before. If the joke is that there is no joke, the writer gets no paycheck.
Playboy: Jumping into wheat germ sounds like Letterman. O'Brien: My show began with me and everyone involved with the show doing all we could to avoid being anything like Letterman. Which is difficult. He invented a lot of the form. He carved out a big territory. He's the Viking who discovered America, and now I have my little piece of northwestern Canada that I'm trying to claim as my own.
Playboy: So how do you avoid being Dave-like? O'Brien: We have always scrupulously avoided found comedy. You never see me going up and talking to normal Joe on the street. The real word of people, dogs, cabbies -- Letterman is great at that. His genius, I think, is playing with the real world around him. Which is not my forte at all. My idea is more about creating a fake, cartoony world and playing with that.
Playboy: Are you goofy in real life? O'Brien: My private life is boring. I've been with the same woman, Lynn Kaplan, for four years, and there ain't nothing crazy going on. Lynn is a talent booker on our show. We go to my house in Connecticut on weekends. I sit around playing guitar.
Playboy: Gossip columnists have placed you in Manhattan with other women. O'Brien: One of them had me with Courteney Cox. Lisa Kudrow and I did improv together years ago and we went out for a while. Maybe that's why I can now be romantically linked to the entire cast of Friends. I may be thrilled with that, but my girlfriend is one of those people who believes everything they read in the tabloids. She's sitting at the table in Connecticut when she opens a tabloid and says, "What the hell?" There's a big photo of me with Courteney Cox. The story says, "Courteney's moving in with Conan."
Playboy: Did Lynn believe it? O'Brien: No, because the story went on to say, "Conan and Courteney were seen at the Fashion Cafe munching veggie burgers." That sentence ended her faith in tabloids. Lynn knows that I would never (a) go to the Fashion Cafe and (b) eat a veggie burger. I'm an Irish-Catholic kid from Boston; I'll eat red meat until my heart explodes out of my chest.
Playboy: Do you still drive an old Ford Taurus? O'Brien: When I got my five-year contract I moved up. Bought a Range Rover. Now I drive the Range Rover to Connecticut for the weekend, park it and tool around in the Taurus all weekend. I can't let go of that Taurus. It's an extension of my penis.
Playboy: Can you forget about the show on weekends? O'Brien: I drive around playing Jerry Reed tapes, fantasizing that I'm some backwoods character. But even then -- you know, it's probably not an accident that people who do these shows tend to be depressive. You want so badly for it to be right every night, but mounting an hour-long show four times a week -- the pace will kill you. One night I put my fist through a tile wall. Another night, I walked off the stage, pulled an air-conditioning unit out of the wall and kicked it. This stuff I can't explain. Nor can I excuse it. But there may be something maddening about these shows. The pace is... I forget shows we did last week. That's why I can't imagine doing this for 30 years. I bet you could show Johnny Carson footage of how he shrieked as his body was lowered into acid and he's say, "Hmm, don't remember that one."
I saw Jerry Seinfeld at the Emmy Awards. He said he liked the show, then he paused and said, "How do you do it?"
"Do what?"
"Do what you do every night for an hour?"
That shocked me. This is Jerry Seinfeld, the master. A man everyone can agree is funny. And I really have no answer.
Playboy: Praise from Seinfeld must cheer you up. O'Brien: (Shaking his head) I worry that we have hit our stride and must be headed for a fall. Because every show has an arc. The Honeymooners had an arc. People forget, but The Honeymooners was mean and depressing. Art Carney wasn't fun and cuddly yet. Even successful shows take time to find their rhythm. Then they get self-indulgent and fuck it up. Look at late Happy Days episodes. They quit shooting on location, Mork keeps visiting, and it's an excuse to spin off new shows.
Playboy: Will you fuck it up, too? O'Brien: Eventually my only consolation may be that I get paid a lot. I'll say, "I know it sucks, but I'm getting $65 million a year!"
Playboy: Letterman said almost exactly that not long ago. When a joke died he admitted it sucked. "But I'm making a fortune!" he said. Do you really worry about losing your edge? O'Brien: I want a living will for my career. I want the people around me to pull the plug when I become a self-parody, an old blowhard like Alan Brady. Remember him, the television star Rob Petrie worked for on the Dick Van Dyke Show? Pompous, over-the-top, over-the-hill. I don't want to be Alan Brady.
Playboy: Letterman paid you an odd compliment. "When I see that show it withers me with exhaustion," he said. O'Brien: That's our new slogan. "Watch Late Night -- We'll wither you." But I think Dave was saying that he knows how hard it is to make a show like this every night.
Playboy: Suppose Leno left The Tonight Show. Would you like to duel Dave at 11:30? O'Brien: Our best slot would be eight A.M.. We have puppets, cartoons, lots of childishness. I think I'm doing an OK late-night show but it's a great kids' show.
Playboy: This from Mr. Hip? O'Brien: No. When someone says this or that sort of comedy is hip and alternative -- "Yes, these are cool people" -- I hate that. Because at the end of the day, funny is funny. People get fooled about me because I went to Harvard. "He's cerebral." But I love Green Acres. I love how Green Acres bends reality.
Playboy: Sounds cerebral. O'Brien: It isn't. In one episode Oliver Douglas has to go to Washington, D.C. His wife says, "Darling, take a picture of the Eiffel Tower." He says, "Lisa, the Eiffel Tower ---" Then Eb comes in. "Mr. Douglas, git me an Eiffel Tower postcard!" Now Oliver is terribly frustrated. He keeps sputtering about Washington, D.C., but nobody listens. At the end, he goes to Washington, looks up, and there's the Eiffel Tower. That is the kind of thing that made me love T.V.
Playboy: As a TV-mad college kid you cooked up scams to meet celebs. O'Brien: I wanted to meet Bill Cosby, so my friends and I offered him some fake award. We took a bowling trophy and called it the Harvard Comedy Award, something like that, and Cosby, thinking it was the Hasty Pudding Award, accepted. So I drive out to meet his private plane. "Over here, Mr. Cosby!" And I chauffeur him in my dad's second hand station wagon. Cosby sits in the backseat, picking old McDonald's wrappers off the floor, and says, "This is about the Hasty Pudding Award?"
"Oh no, nothing like that."
Playboy: You tricked Bill Cosby into letting you drive him around? O'Brien: I didn't realize that one does not pick up a famous person in a 1976 station wagon. They like to fly first-class, to be picked up in a Town Car and put up in a nice hotel. Fortunately I am not directly involved in celebrity care anymore.
Playboy: Did you bring other comics to Harvard? O'Brien: Yes. John Candy's people warned me that John was on the Pritikin diet. They gave me strict dietary instructions. John immediately ran into a bakery on Harvard Square to get pastries. He said they were Pritikin eclairs.
Playboy: You once stole a famous television costume. O'Brien: When Burt Ward visited Harvard there were fliers all over the campus: Burt Ward to Appear With Original Robin Costume (Insured by Lloyd's of London for $500,000). In fact, Burt Ward was said to keep a bunch of them in his car; he'd pass them out to impress girls. Naturally, I wanted to screw with him. A few friends and I attended his speech at the science center. We went dressed as security guards. I said, "Mr. Ward, I've been sent by the dean to safe guard the costume." As if it were the Shroud of Turin. But the guy is humorless. "Yes, very good. That costume is very valuable," he says.
That's when we hit the lights. Which works great in the movies. In the movies the lights go out and suddenly the jewel is gone. In real life, though, what you get is some dimming. You hit the lights and people can see a little less well.
Playboy: Did you grab the costume? O'Brien: We grabbed it and the chase was on. Some Burt Ward admirers -- young Republicans, I guess -- took off after us yelling, "Stop them!" But we escaped in a waiting car. We proceeded to torment Burt Ward for hours on the phone, saying, "This is the Joker, hee-hee-hee. I've got your costume."
Playboy: How did Burt react? O'Brien: Robinlike. He said, "Return it or you will feel my wrath!" Playboy: Burt Ward used to tell reporters he had an IQ of 200. O'Brien: He may be delusional.
Playboy: Were you always starstruck? O'Brien: Stars are fascinating. When I was a writer for Saturday Night Live, Robert Wagner did the show. One day he was sitting offstage, talking on the phone. He had on a camel-hair jacket, silk scarf, and of course his perfectly arranged Robert Wagner hair. "Very good, goodbye," he says, and hangs up. Suddenly his hand shoots up and touches the right side of his head, where the phone receiver may have disturbed a few hairs. At that point you know he has done this smooth move every day since 1948.
Playboy: You seem to prefer goofy celebs -- Jack Lord, William Shatner, Robert Stack. There are photos of Stack and Adam West, TV's Batman, here in your office. Do those guys know you are making fun of them? O'Brien: I'm not. I have a real affection for those men. To me, meeting Andy Griffith is just as interesting as interviewing Allen Ginsberg. I'm interested in Martin Scorsese and Gore Vidal as well as Jaleel White, TV's Urkel.
Playboy: How do Gore Vidal and Urkel compare? O'Brien: I'd say Jaleel White's prose style is not taken as seriously. But the same is true of Vidal's nerd character.
Playboy: As one of the writers on The Simpsons you helped create some memorable characters. O'Brien: What I loved about The Simpsons was that it wasn't a cartoon for kids. A cartoon might look like the friendliest thing in the world, but we were subversive. I loved it when we had Lisa write a patriotic essay in school: "Our country has the strongest, best educational system in the world after Canada, Germany, France, Great Britain..." It was this great sugarcoated cutting remark. I loved her for it.
Playboy: Tell us a Simpsons sercret. O'Brien: When Dan Castellaneta started doing Homer's voice, he was doing Walter Matthau. Like I said, it takes time to find your rhythm.
Playboy: So are you satisfied with your work? O'Brien: Intellectually, yes. The show works. Advertisers like to buy time on it. Young people really like it. But I was a moody, driven, self-critical person before I got this show, and that hasn't changed. It's just that I now have something even more frightening than a Saturday Night Live sketch or a Bart Simpson joke to worry about. I have an hour of comedy broadcast every night. My anxiety has finally met its match.
Playboy: Will you and Lynn get married? O'Brien: The core idea of being a comic, particularly a comic with a talk show, is control. Marriage is a leap of faith, a giving up of control. I'm not sure if I can make that leap.
Playboy: What about kids? O'Brien: What sort of dad would I make? Maybe this job and a normal family life are diametrically opposed. Dave, Jay, Bill Maher, Arsenio -- where are your kids? Jack Paar seemed to have a normal life with a wife and child, but you don't see much of that. And I believe that your kid should be the most important thing in your life. I may not have room, at least not now. I have Pimpbot to think about.
Playboy: Another foul mouthed Late Night character. O'Brien: Half-robot, half-Seventies street pimp. He's got a feathered hat and a metallic voice: "Gotta run my bitches. Run my ho's. I'll cut you." Right now my life revolves around Pimpbot.
Playboy: You need to settle a fashion question. You, Leno and Letterman seldom wear suits off stage. Leno likes flannel shirts, Letterman prefers jeans and sweatshirts. You wear T-shirts. Why wear a suit and tie on the air? O'Brien: There are two schools of thought on that. The Steve Martin approach says that you're putting on a show, so dress up for the people. The George Carlin approach says all that old showbiz stuff is over, this is the new way, so wear a T-shirt. I choose a jacket and tie because that's the uniform people expect talk show hosts to wear. If I came out in a mesh T-shirt and chains it might distract people from the comedy.
Playboy: How would you describe your show? O'Brien: It's a hybrid. If Carson defined the talk show and Letterman was the anti-talk show, where do you go next? That was the question we faced. What we did was make a show that has the visual trappings of the classic Tonight Show -- the desk, the band, the sidekick -- but with everything else perverted. When it works well I'd say my show is one part Carson, one part Charlie Rose and one part Pee-Wee's Playhouse.
Playboy: Do you have any advice for future talk show hosts? O'Brien: You had better love the job. Some hosts don't. You can see it in their eyes. Chevy Chase's talk show -- he did not want to be there. And if that's in your eyes you're finished, because there's another show tomorrow and next week and the week after that. You can't conquer it. You can do two or three or ten good shows in a row and still want to punch a wall when you slip up.
Playboy: Can you ever conquer your repressed childhood? O'Brien: It's always there. I still believe in moral absolutes. Murder, for instance, is wrong, unless it helps the show.
Playboy: Still, talk show hosts have perks most guys can only dream of. O'Brien: It's great to be played over to the desk. You finish your monologue, then the band kicks in as you cross the set. Fortunately, we have a great band. Even when people didn't like anything about the show, they loved the Max Weinberg Seven. The music heightens everything. Now you are more than just a guy in a suit, you're Co-nan O'Bri-en! I think every guy should have that -- if a band played you over to your rental car at the airport, you'd have a cooler day.
Playboy: Is Andy Richter your Ed McMahon? O'Brien: He's Andy. When we were getting started and the network wasn't sure of me, they kept asking, "Who's that Andy guy?" I think we've answered the question. Part of the show's rhythm is my energy played against the quiet steadiness of Andy.
Playboy: Is that rhythm genuine? O'Brien: Yes. Our mentalities mesh. I'm always dissatisfied. He's the guy saying, "Hey, relax. It's good enough." My girlfriend would be happy if I had a bit more of that in me.
Playboy: Who is the guest you can't get? O'Brien: Werner Klemperer. He refuses to revive Colonel Klink, the commandant he played on Hogan's Heroes. Which confuses me. Is he going to come up with another character at this late date -- Werner Klemperer as the aging black man or kung fu fighter? No, he's Colonel Klink.
Playboy: You once said that as a boy you wanted to be like Bob Crane in Hogan's Heroes, the cool guy who "wore a bomber jacket and wised off to Nazis." O'Brien: I asked Werner Klemperer to do some bits as Colonel Klink. He refused. Then a strange thing happened. We're shooting abit on the West Side when Werner Klemperer comes around the corner. Pulling his parka up to his chin, just like Colonel Klink, he walks past our film crew and says, "Hello, Conan. I must say the show is very good lately. Give my best to Andy. Farewell!" It was a cameo appearance in reality. He was there, he was gone. I wanted to shout, "Hey, Werner Klemperer just did a walk-on in my life."
Playboy: Are you losing the boundaries between your life and your job? O'Brien: There are no boundaries. At any minute Werner Klemperer may step in here and give me 30 days in the cooler. It's getting surreal. Just this morning I am going through the lobby downstairs when two girls see me. One girl nudges the other, "Look, it's the guy from Conan O'Brien!" I guess she couldn't quite place me, but she knew which show I was on.

2024.05.28 15:01 williedills My Journey as a NOFX die hard fan to being Mike's bud

I was 13 and taking a photography class at Academy of Art College in SF. At the time I was really into Nirvana and Pearl Jam and the music my mom liked growing up. The class was mixed between high school kids and college kids looking for summer credits and I was the youngest of the whole bunch. One guy I really looked up to said to me "Hey, listen to this new record I just bought" and put headphones on me and pressed play. The album was Punk in Drublic and the song was Linoleum. It changed everything.
I was already a bass player at the time but my first band was trying to sound like all of our grunge idols.
https://youtu.be/oWdLy9jt7HQ?si=UihItqTLY2ltX1CT
(I'm the guy in the middle with long blond hair)
That band broke up and I joined my first "real" band soon after and the vibes had changed. We wanted to be fast and loud and punk. During that period I saw NOFX live probably 100 times. My Walkman was always playing my homemade tapes with NOFX on one side, Op Ivy on the other and probably Green Day in there as well. I learned every song, knew every lyric and slam danced my heart out every time I saw them. I got to see NOFX at the Fillmore, Bottom of the Hill, Slims, Gilman, Warp Tour, and even at little ass clubs like Thee Parkside. NOFX was on the stereo at all of our high school parties and Fat Mike was a mythical figure in my mind.
Then my band broke up again and my best friend and drummer were looking for a new project. My friend Chuck Worthy reached out and said a band called The Flipsides needed bass and drums so we texted Sabrina the lead singer and set up an audition. We put the record on for about 20 minutes before she showed up at our practice studio and learned the first few tracks. She walked in and asked us if we knew any of the songs, we said, yeah, totally. Colin (Drummer) counted in and we absolutely nailed the entire first couple songs in a row. Sabrina stopped and said, "So we have a tour opening for the Groovie Ghoulies and I want you guys." Turned out The Flipsides was signed to Pink and Black which is a subsidiary of Fat. So that's how I first met Fat Mike.
https://open.spotify.com/artist/3bq86Iduw6WaLwyzl7x1LH?si=xcg9EjS0QTKASa5wXLRbVg
I don't think Mike really remembered me from that first meeting. I was just the new bass player for The Flipsides but we toured the record and he was aware of us. He even came to see us a few times. Side note, some of the bass on that record was done by Mike Dirnt and we had some heat behind us. It was a fucking great time on the road. The Ghoulies are the best and I loved that entire experience but when we got back Colin wanted out. He didn't feel satisfied with the songs and he was my guy so I told Sabrina I was out too. I still wonder what would have been if we had stayed with that lineup because we were solid on stage and killed it at every show. On to the next though, Colin and I joined a band with a couple of Irish lads from Sligo and started The Hooks. That band carried me through the next decade or so and they are still playing today.
https://open.spotify.com/artist/109KB5ZUUV6WKugjxSb5Xi?si=66yJY6A0RFaTAGW4v4EU3w
Here's where it gets weird. Some how during all of this I got really into golf and started a worldwide golf league called the Mediocre Golf Association with my also best friend Jon Morley. It began as just a few friends playing golf together and now we have over 100 chapters around the world and almost 8000 members. Each year we hold a World Championship in Las Vegas that's attended by around 600 people at this point. Anyway, that other best friend Colin, my drummer, married Michelle who is a lockneck girl (some of you may know) in Mexico and Fat Mike was at the wedding. While we were body surfing on the beach one day I realized that I was just chilling next to Mike and everyone else had gone back to shore. I had heard somewhere that he was a golfer so I shot my shot and I asked if he wanted to golf while we were in Mexico and he absolutely lit up when I asked. He told me to meet him the next morning at 7am for breakfast and we would taxi to some course near by. I told my now ex-wife and she seemed not that interested but I couldn't fucking sleep. I popped out of bed ready to hang out with Fat Mike and golf in Mexico and it was everything I could have asked for and more.
https://www.mgatour.com/
We ate pretty quickly, had some semi-awkward conversation which I have no memory of and hopped in a Mexican taxi to the course. The course was nice. Like, really fucking nice but of course I had no clubs, no balls, no nothing. We rented a bunch of shit and each paid for ourselves (this will come up later). All told I think I spent almost 700 bucks which was a lot for me but nothing was gonna stop me from having this day. The round was amazing. I told Mike all about this thing I had started called the MGA, and he was into it! We talked about punk bands we liked, why bass is definitely the best instrument, we both sucked at golf, the course was immaculate, and we bonded. He became Mike my homey and not Fat Mike from NOFX. He's just a cool dude who is really fun to hang out with. The rest of the Mexico trip he was my buddy Mike...who also knew every other famous person there and kept introducing me and lives a totally different and probably cooler life than most people.
Cut to, I'm back home. Mike tells Kent (the NOFX manager) about the MGA. Kent loves it even more than Mike. Kent becomes a true friend and an MGA champion. We all start golfing all the time and through them I meet a bunch of people I now fully consider lifelong friends. They both come to Vegas for our World Championship. Mike, myself and Jon Morley the co-founder of the MGA do a cover for Golf Magazine which blows up the MGA even more. We're now just straight up golf buddies but Fat Mike is still Fat Mike who I grew up idolizing but he's become a normal buddy who just has a cool job in a way. I love that man. He sucks at golf and so do I but after he sucks at golf he writes hit records! He's great at being Fat Mike but he's also great at being a friend and now that they're doing the last tour I just feel like people should know this story.
Mike is famous as fuck in my world. I know in the big world that's not SF punk kids he's not a household name but for me, meeting him the first time was like meeting Michael Jackson, with less molesting. Some molesting, consensually if you're part of the scene, but less molesting. He's gone out of his way for me. He told me much later he wanted to pay for that first round of golf we played in Mexico but he didn't know me well enough yet. The important part there is he thought about that enough to tell me later. He held onto it like I do with so many things. When you hang with him and he does know you he pays for dinner, golf rounds, etc. but not do act cool, because he has money now and he wants to just use it to do fun things with his friends. It's so selfless and he's treats it like a lot of people say they would if they ever got money but then don't. He does. He's just a good dude. Again, terrible at golf but a good dude.
https://www.mgatour.com/lamestream-media
I've heard that you shouldn't meet your heroes. Who said that? Whoever they were their heroes were dicks but luckily my hero was Fat Mike and I'm so glad I met him. If I told this story to a 13 year old me he'd probably say, "I ain't reading all that. I'm happy for u tho. Or sorry that happened."
If you did read all this thank you for listening.
Bonus extra story - at the MGA World Championship in Vegas Mike took a shit next to a tee box, put a tee in it just so everyone would probably see it and no one was mad at him. I guess that's the one rock star thing he does sometimes is do something outrageous just to see? If I did that people would not be okay with it.
Bonus Bonus extra story - once after a round of golf Mike was driving me home and had to pick up his daughter at school. She was probably 5 or 6 at the time. He took me into the school, into the classroom, and every kid was so excited to see him but so confused as to who I was. Mike seemed un-phased. That's my guy.
edit - I reread this and it kinda sucked so I made it tighter. This is who I am.

2024.05.28 13:54 New_Sleep_6702 How common is it to loose your job for coming out as trans? (+advice needed!)

(21, trans woman) I work a part time retail job on the weekends to make some cash during college. The shop is in a shopping centre outside of dublin and the shop is a pretty big worldwide company, but our manager is an aul one from the midlands. Don’t think shes too conservative but she has the usual irish judgemental scrunch-your-face-up and roll-your-eyes attitude that most irish people that age do. Going to work is pretty painful at the minute bc i’m not out yet and get misgendered all day. It makes me miserable and I can’t find another job. I’m thinking about going to the hr department in the company and coming out because I would rather have my identity respected at work at least by SOME of my coworkers but is this a stupid idea?? what’s the likelihood that they’ll just see me as more hassle than what i’m worth and fire me? I’ve been working at this shop for more than a year and get along with my coworkers pretty well so i’m hopeful, if anyone has advice/tips on coming out at work please do let me know!

2024.05.28 05:04 applesandwitch Materials and supplies

As of now, I’m at a bit of a hard spot. I love oil painting but the quality of materials I have are low grade and I’ve been finding them hard to work with. I’m unsure of how to get the colors so smooth and bright like I’ve seen on videos, as well as my brushes are very low quality and a good chunk (almost all of them) and clumped together and halfway destroyed. I don’t have many ways of cleaning my brushes at home, I’ve tried dish soap, tons of paint thinner and what I’ve found to work best is using Irish spring bar soap 😭. I have a ton of Masonite as well as I have canvases from artist loft but they just don’t feel nice to work on. I want to be able to invest in better quality paints and brushes but I’m unsure what the best would be, as I am a student and currently not employed (working on it!! Softball season just ended!). I what’s the bet quality paint for a good bargain? Or is it worth it to invest and splurge on really good paint, and do brushes really matter that much?

2024.05.28 03:44 EDRootsMusic I'm done carrying this "duo" musically.

For seven years now, I've maintained a partnership with my now ex bandmate, and I have to end it. The dysfunction, lack of professionalism, and straight up disrespect for the art is just too much. So many people told me over the years, and this last weekend has just made it so clear to me- I'm floating this person, and she is holding me back.
I'm a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and songwriter who works in the American and Irish roots traditions- old time, Celtic, bluegrass, blues, country, etc. I've been in seven or eight bands over the years, released albums, including a solo album, and written hundreds of original songs. To avoid harassment of my former bandmate, I will not be linking my work in this post.
One of my biggest band projects, started off as a bluegrass act but quickly became a multi-genre folk band as we incorporated musical roots from our bandmates' backgrounds- taking Jewish folk music, Afro-Caribbean music, and Celtic influences, we basically became a "world music" group. We all shared the same political outlook, as well, and this influenced the music we played and the shows we booked. We played a TON of benefit shows raising money for causes we supported.
One of our bandmates joined after our first show- a benefit show for some railroad workers facing criminal charges for a derailment that was not their fault. This bandmate has a great voice, but plays no instruments. She also doesn't exactly practice much with her voice- she just relies on it being great. Well, this very quickly caused tensions within the group that took some months or years to fully blossom. Everyone else involved was a multi-instrumentalist who practiced our instruments a ton. We all took our practice time very seriously, while she would usually roll into practice late, and spend most of it on her phone until it came time for her to sing. She would also, frequently, miss her cues, and she almost always had to look up her lyrics on her phone. This didn't really improve with time. There were events where we would have to stop our set and wait while she pulled up the lyrics on her phone- and, of course, she never put the lyrics into their own dedicated file where they'd be in the order she needs them to be in. She would just go into my huge, hundreds-of-pages-long google file where all my original songs are, and try to search for them in there.
Despite not really doing her job as vocalist well, she also took on the position of front-woman of the group. She would introduce all the songs, giving her own spin on what they were about- which was often off the mark, as they were mostly songs I wrote and composed, often about specific historical events or things happening in the world that weren't really up for super subjective interpretations.
Because she was the front-woman of the band, and was singing the lyrics, people often assumed that she was the writer of the songs. Even in the one big review our band got in a publication, the interviewer only took quotes from her, and described her as the band's singesongwriter. She has never publicly performed a song that she wrote without my help. In fact, the only reason we had that gig was that locals from halfway across the country were hearing my recordings of my original songs, including some about a specific historic event they were commemorating the centennial of, and asked the band to come out and play them. I wasn't even mentioned in the article!
It isn't the only time she's gotten accolades as a songwriter for stuff I've written. I went to one of her few performances she's done without me backing her. She was singing a song I'd written about fighting back against racism, backed by an African drummer, to a mostly African-American crowd. The crowd was really enthusiastic. Many people commented on how powerful the lyrics were, what a great songwriter she was to have written this insightful song. I was incredulous, but mostly amused, that she didn't bother correcting them and telling them it was my song.
She also ended up showing a wildly materialistic streak to her approach to music. While the rest of us were always happy to play benefit shows, all the time, and to offer our music cheap or free to people out of love of the music, she was always looking for paid gigs, and imagining huge sums of money we could get for performing. She was fine with changing the sound and the message of our music in order to get this, but not fine with actually practicing. She was talking about going professional while I was pleading with her to please remember her lyrics, learn what 4/4 and 3/4 time are, and maybe learn to play some basic first-position chords!
I tried to get her to take the actual musical side of things more seriously. I offered her free music lessons (I normally charge), which she said she would take me up on, but never did. When she requested that we play more music from her own, Afro-Carribbean background, I said "sure!", and dived into the calipso, reggae, ska, and other genres of the region. But even that didn't hold her interest- she didn't study any of it. I bought her a guiro she never learned to play, and built her a custom built cajon, complete with a custom paint job of the symbols of the Carribbean country her family is from. She never learned to play it. I ended up writing a number of reggae-influenced songs for the band, and am today well versed enough in it that I've been recruited as a bassist in a reggae band, but I couldn't get her to put any effort into it at all.
Recently, a bandmate of mine in a different band gave an audience perspective on her performance- that only was she looking at her phone all the time for the lyrics and stopping the performance for this, but she trying to be "expressive" by making these huge, over-dramatic faced to the audience. He said it was wildly off-putting.
It must have been off-putting to the other bandmates, too. After years of playing together, the other bandmates started quietly dropping out, one by one. At the time they all gave different reasons why, but talking to them afterwards, they all expressed that it was over her. They felt really disrespected being in a band with someone who didn't take it seriously, and who was in it for fame and money but didn't want to put in the work. I didn't realize at the time how toxic her presence in the band was for them. I had spent years putting that band together, building this really unique sound, and it all fell apart.
I think she just doesn't have any kind of realistic assessment of how much work it takes to make it musically, or what standard of quality she has to hold herself to. Even now, a few years after the band collapsed, she publicly identifies herself as a performer and songwriter, but still has never performed any original song I didn't help her write. She comes to open mics and has to look up the lyrics for the songs, and often has to stop partway through a song because she's lost her rhythm or forgotten the chord progression. Just no ability to roll through mistakes.
She doesn't understand the work that goes into the booking side, either. Shortly after the band was founded, she said that since the benefit show we organized went so well, we should organize another one in one month. I told her that I had no capacity to do that, and the show we'd just played took three months to book and promote, but that she was welcome to try her hand at organizing a show if she wanted to. So, she organized a show for a local Native American charity. Then, a week before the show was supposed to happen, she called me up and told me she had an opportunity to go to a conference in NYC, and needed me to wrap up the show for her. I asked her what was left to do on it. She said "Oh, we just need to book the bands". It was a week out from a show that she had been aggressively promoting all over town, and she never booked the actual music for it. So, I (a white dude) had to go to all these Native American activists and nonprofit people she'd made promises to that we were holding this show, and tell them that there was no show.
All of this has been festering for years, but really came to a head this weekend.
A few weeks ago she started asking me all sorts of questions about the nuts and bolts of songwriting. I was excited, and thought she was finally coming around to learning the craft and putting her voice to good use. After a week or two of advising her, I found out the real reason she was asking, was that she had taken a gig teaching a class on songwriting- specifically, on the exact type of songwriting that I do (ballads and protest songs in the folk tradition). A type of songwriting she has never done. This was frustrating. But then, over the course of this weekend, we were supposed to have three different meet ups. The first was going to be to talk over her presentation. The second was to practice for a benefit show we were going to do together, where I had been booked but had agreed to play half my set as a duet with her to help her develop artistically. The third was that show itself.
The first meeting, she was forty minutes late. When she arrived, she brought out her presentation on songwriting. It was someone else's work she had pulled off of the internet, and had almost nothing to do with the actual nuts and bolts of songwriting. Really, it was more like a brief history of protest music in the US, but had not a single slide telling anyone how to actually write their own music. So, I sat there writing out my own advice on songwriting, while she shifted in her chair eager to go, because she wanted to meet a friend for drinks. Well, pulling her weight has been par for the course for me for years, so I just put my head down and did it, since the people coming to the class deserved to leave with some actual knowledge. But then, as she was getting ready to leave, it occurred to me that I had never asked one important question- was she actually getting paid for this?
It turns out she was. $500. She was getting paid $500 to present a mixture of someone else's work and my work, on a topic she knows pretty much nothing about, but which is my specialty. The people who paid her this $500 stipend, are the same people who had me writing a song for their play (for her to perform!) pro-bono because they didn't have the money to pay. So, clearly they KNEW that I was the one with the songwriting chops, but chose instead to pay her!
I almost told her off right then and there, but wanted to make sure the benefit show on Sunday would go well. So I held my tongue.
We were supposed to meet up on Sunday morning to practice for the show. She missed our appointment. I called and asked if she was planning on stopping by for practice. She said she would come at a given time, and then showed up half an hour late. Looking at the lyrics (which I wrote) on her phone the whole time, she got through the half dozen songs she was planning on singing at the show, and then bounced. After she left, she asked me to ask the show organizers to put us on first because she had a date later that night. So, I did- the order wasn't set yet, anyways. The only expectation we had was that all sets needed to start right on time, so everyone would have time to play.
The time for the show to start rolls around, and she's nowhere to be seen. The entire first half of our set is with her as the vocalist. I ended up playing almost the entire second half of the set, as a solo act, before she strolled into the venue half an hour late. For the entire set, she was reading my lyrics off of her phone, taking extended awkward, mood-killing pauses between songs to search for the lyrics. When she was done singing, she left before I even finished the rest of our set.
I could understand all of this behavior if this was a person begrudgingly forced on stage, with no interest in being a performer. But this is a person who introduces herself as a musician and performer. The lack of ambition to be better just baffles me. Ultimately, much of this is my fault. I have enabled this behavior, allowed her to continue using my songs and lyrics even when she hasn't done basic things like learn her lyrics or practice the instruments I built for her. I'm basically the Giving Tree of this musical relationship, and it's destroyed other collaborations I built with musicians who are WAY better matches for me. This isn't the first time stuff like this happened with me; people often remark on my similarity to Boxer the Horse from Animal Farm- always putting in extra effort and making up for others who don't pull their own weight, to the point that it wears me the fuck down. It's a pattern of behavior I've been trying to unlearn.
I'm going to cut her off cold turkey. No more musical collaboration. No more booking her for gigs. No more lessons. This hasn't been an artistic partnership. It's been me being used and allowing it to happen. Fuck that.

2024.05.28 03:32 J12ich FBNXT: Clash of the Champions - Booking the AEW Title from Dynasty through the end of 2024 Part II

I Part I I
Following AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door, Jon Moxley is now both the AEW and IWGP World Heavyweight Champions, having defeated Swerve Strickland after his stablemate, Brian Cage, betrayed him. Now that Moxley is the top guy in two companies, he’ll have twice as many people gunning for him, and with All In, AEW’s biggest show of the year just a few months away, Moxley may have his work cut out for him if he hopes to hang on to both his belts.
Road to All In
At Forbidden Door, a Casino Battle Royale was held, consisting of wrestlers from both NJPW and AEW, with the winner receiving a future shot at the AEW World Championship, which was won by Jay White. White received his title match in the main event of the July 17th edition of AEW Dynamite, which Moxley would go on to win and retain his title. Following the match, it was announced that due to Moxley’s dual responsibilities as IWGP World Champion, he would be off AEW television for the next month to participate in New Japan’s G1 Climax Tournament. To make up for his lost time, AEW CEO Tony Khan announces that at All In, the AEW Championship will be defended in the main event in a 4 way match and over the next several weeks on both Dynamite and Collision, several qualifying matches will be held to determine the 3 challengers. At the conclusion of the qualifying matches, the winners are as follows:
Will Ospreay - Ospreay earned his shot at the AEW World Championship in the first qualifying match on Dynamite, defeating Claudio Castagnoli and Samoa Joe in a 3 way match up to stamp his ticket to the main event at All In. He’s already had plenty of big wins in AEW, defeating the likes of Kenny Omega, Konosuke Takeshita and Bryan Danielson, but now the Aerial Assassin and AEW’s hottest rising star has a chance to win the top title in the company in his home country of England. Let’s see if he can rise to the occasion and defeat the one man he has been unable to best in all their previous encounters, Jon Moxley.
Maxwell Jacob Friedman - After losing the AEW Championship to Samoa Joe following a year plus reign at World's End in December of 2023, MJF went on a hiatus from AEW after being betrayed and attacked by his former best friend Adam Cole. He returned at Double or Nothing this past May and after going to war with Cole and the Undisputed Kingdom, concluding with MJF defeating Cole in a singles match, which hopefully ended their feud, MJF now looks to reclaim his beloved championship. After defeating Swerve Strickland and Darby Allin in a 3 way qualifying match on Dynamite by pinning Allin, MJF officially earned his chance to win back the AEW World Title. It was at All In last year where MJF retained the AEW Championship in front of the largest paid attendance in the history of professional wrestling. Let’s see if history repeats itself and MJF walks out with the gold one year later.
Swevre Strickland - Of the 2 other challengers, Strickland was champion most recently, having lost the AEW Championship to Moxley at Forbidden Door, and never being granted a proper rematch. In the aftermath of Forbidden Door, Swerve was turned on by not just Brian Cage, but the rest of Mogul Embassy, who claimed they were being used by him but reaped none of the reward. After engaging in a blood feud with Cage and the Gates of Agony, Swerve managed to come out on top and now looks to regain his title.

After a long show full of twists and turns, the main event of All In has finally arrived, pitting 4 of AEW’s finest stars against each other with the top prize in the company on the line. As the sun sets and the night sky turns to black, red white and blue fireworks representing the Union Jack shoot through the sky above Wembley Stadium as the hometown hero Will Ospreay makes his entrance first, heading out to the ring accompanied by a thunderous applause. Followed by him is the former champion Swerve Strikeland, who enters with a less extravagant entrance, but a much more serious demeanor. Third comes the devil himself, Maxwell Jacob Friedman, and lastly, walking out through the crowd is the AEW World Champion, the Ace of All Elite Wrestling, Jon Moxley. After Moxley makes it to the ringside area, the four competitors standoff in their corners as ring introductions are made and the referee calls for the bell for the match to finally get underway.
AEW World Championship 4 Way Title Match - Jon Moxley © vs Will Ospreay vs Swerve Strickland vs Maxwell Jacob Friedman
The match begins and Swerve makes a b-line for Jon Moxley, unloading on him with punches, as the commentary team notes that this is the first time Swerve has been able to get his hands on Moxley since he lost the title to him back in June. As Mox and Swerve go at it, MJF charges at Ospreay and takes a cheapshot at him, knocking him square in the jaw before pushing him up against the ropes. Max bounces off the ropes and charges at Will, looking to hit him with a clothesline over the top ropes, but Will ducks down and catches Max, sending him flying over the top ropes himself to the outside of the ring. As Max stumbles to get back up to his feet, Will jumps over the ropes and hits Max with a crossbody to the outside. Ospreay quickly pops back up and sees Swerve and Moxley trading punches in the ring in the corner. He slides back in and charges at them, pressing them both in to the corner with a double clothesline. He then grabs Swerve by the arm and irish whips him across the ring before running forward and hitting him with a running knee into the corner. He puts Swerve in a headlock and runs forward to hit him with a bulldog, and as Moxley stumbles towards them, Will takes him out with a clothesline to thunderous applause from the London crowd.
Swerve and Moxley both roll out of the ring in pain and Ospreay gets back up to his feet, he is attacked from behind by MJF. Max hits Will with repeated shots to the back of the head before grabbing him from behind and trying to take him down with a german suplex. Ospreay manages to land on his feet, bounces off the ropes and nails him with a hidden blade. MJF goes down and Will quickly tries to go for a cover, but Max kicks out and the match goes on. Seeing an opening, Ospreay climbs up to the top ropes and sets up to hit MJF with a high risk move, however, at the last second, he is pushed off the ropes to the outside by Swerve Strickland. Will quickly pops up to his feet but Swerve charges at him and takes him down with a running knee. Swerve then grabs Will by the hair and drags him to the announcers table, where he clears the table and after nailing Will in the head several times, sets him up on it. With Ospreay down, Swerve climbs up onto the turnbuckles and leaps off, nailing Ospreay with a diving frog splash through the table, taking both men down.
With Swerve and Ospreay down on the outside, Moxley makes his way back into the ring as MJF pulls himself up against the ropes. The two face off in the center of the ring and start trading punches, with MJF getting the upper hand. He irish whips Moxley into the ropes, but Jon explodes off of them and takes down MJF with a running clothesline. Moxley then picks up MJF and hits him with a Paradigm Shift DDT before going for a cover but MJF kicks out at 2. Moxley stays on offense and locks MJF in a rear naked choke to try and force him to submit. MJF gasps out for air but is stuck in the center of the ring. He looks like he is going to fade when suddenly, Swerve climbs up onto the top ropes and hits a diving elbow drop onto both men, breaking the submission. MJF rolls out of the ring as Swerve and Moxley go blow for blow in the center. Swerve gets the upper hand and takes down Moxley. He sets up in the corner for a running knee as the champion tries to get up to his feet, but as Swerve runs forwards, Ospreay slides into the ring and nails him with a hidden blade.
Swerve rolls out of the ring in pain and Ospreay turns around to see a dazed Moxley stumbling up to his feet. Ospreay bounces off the ropes and decks Mox with a hidden blade before going for the cover 1-2-NOOO! Somehow, Moxley kicks out. In desperation, Ospreay pulls Mox up to his feet, kicks him in the stomach and nails him with the tiger driver 91, dropping him right on his head. Hoping this will finally put Moxley away, Ospreay goes for the cover, but at the count of 2, MJF pulls Will out of the ring and nails him square in the jam with the Dynamite Diamond Ring. Will drops to a knee dazed and MJF grabs him by the head before throwing him into the ringside barricade. Max then slides into the ring and tries to cover Moxley to steal the title, but the champion kicks out at the count of two and the match goes on. As Jon slowly gets up to his feet, MJF squares him up for a shot to the head with the diamond ring, just like how he won the title at Full Gear 2022. As Moxley turns around, Max nails him in the head and covers Jon 1-2- when suddenly, the referee gets pulled out of the ring by a hooded figure.
MJF looks on in disbelief as the hooded man reveals himself as Adam Cole from the Undisputed Kingdom. Apparently their feud isn’t over just yet, as Cole has cost MJF the AEW Championship. MJF dives through the ropes and brawls with Cole up the entrance ramp, where the two begin trading punches at the top. Cole nails MJF with a superkick at the top of the ramp near the edge, but Max maintains his balance and nails Cole with a shot to the jaw with his diamond ring. As Cole stands there dazed, MJF charges at him and tackles him off of the stage, sending the two flying into production equipment down below. Lights around the stadium begin to flicker and sparks start to fly as medical personnel rush over to check on them, but in terms of the match, it appears MJF is out of the picture.
Back in the ring, as a now bloodied Jon Moxley pulls himself back up to his feet, Swerve Strickland makes his way back into the ring and nails Jon with a running knee. Swerve then climbs up to the top ropes and nails Mox with a House Call before going for the cover before it is broken up by Will Ospreay. As Moxley rolls out of the ring in pain, Will and Swerve are left alone to duke it out. They start trading blows in the center of the ring, with Ospreay getting the upper hand. Will irish whips Swerve into the ropes, but Strickland bounces off of them and nails Will with a running knee. Swerve sets up for one more running knee, but as he charges at Will, Ospreay catches him and sets him up for a Styles Clash. Will nails him with the clash, but doesn’t go for the cover. Instead he sets up in the corner to nail Swerve with one more Hidden Blade. To remove all doubt, he then lifts Swerve onto his shoulders and nails him with a Stormbreaker before finally going for the cover and pinning him 1-2-3!

Road to All Out
Following All In, the new AEW World Champion Will Ospreay kicks off the first edition of Dynamite with an interview with Tony Schiavone. Will says that his goal since day one of signing with AEW was to become World Champion. He says that it was a dream come true to win it in his home country at AEW’s largest show of the year and says he plans on having a long and fruitful reign as he elevates this title to new heights. However, midway through his interview, he is interrupted by the former champion Jon Moxley. Mox gets in the ring and stands face to face with Will before saying to him that he should enjoy calling himself champion while he can, because it's going to be a short reign. Moxley says that while Ospreay may have won at All In, he didn’t pin the real champ. In fact, they’ve faced off quite a few times in NJPW in the past and Will hasn’t managed to beat Moxley once. Every time they face off one on one, Ospreay always comes up short. And unfortunately for Will, Moxley announces that in just 11 short days at AEW All Out, Jon will be getting a rematch for the AEW title in the main event. Moxley tells him that he’ll let Ospreay “enjoy your moment in the sun while you can because after All Out, that belt is coming back home with me where it belongs.”
