WWE/WWF (Fake) Part II

Well, this is a follow up on my previous post about how fake the WWE/WWF is.
When I first saw this video, I thought, “Man, this is too good to be true. Imma post this up on my blog asap,” and here I am!

Okay okay, the title of the video is “Shaq fights The Big Show on WWE Monday Night Raw 7.27.09″
It’s too comical to watch, and the fans are going nuts! Are they serious?

While I was watching this clip, I came to an understanding. Wrestling is bullshit. All of it. To be honest, I held back on my other post. But after this clip… It’s like there’s no need!

If you didn’t know, Shaq is a basketball player and “The Big Show,” is one of the biggest wrestlers (from what I can tell).

Well, wait no longer, here’s the video:

Also, if you haven’t noticed, The Big Show drools at around 20 seconds in the video.

10 Stupid People (Video)

Today I want to talk about this video:

This video contains, if you have not guessed it by now, 10 stupid people. I’ll just list my responses in order, 10 to 1.
I would watch the video first or pause after each “rank,” so you can read my response.

10. This guy is lucky he didn’t actually fall off that tree. There’s really nothing to talk about here but the fact that the guy made a mistake by tying himself onto the part of the tree that he was going to cut off. Rank 10 was just a little preview of what’s to come ahead.

9. I feel bad for the car. I really do. First off, the mechanic guy clearly gave the signal to STOP, but I guess the driver thought that the “stop” signal meant to speed up. (Speed up in an indoor area?). Besides the speeding up part, the driver was clearly stupid or intoxicated to not know that there was a giant gap right in front of him/her.
But you know what, at least the mechanic wasn’t stupid. He got out of there, FAST.

8. Okay, well this reminds me of when I was younger. I had skates/inlines/whatever you call them. They were fun, I tried to do jumps, go down hill as fast as I can, go down stairs, etc. Of course in the end, I ended up like that guy. I’m sure most of the people out there can recall when they were younger and this happened to them.

7. Whoa. That is one cool prank. Kinda dick, but as long as the guy getting pranked on didn’t get hurt, it’s all good. I wouldn’t try it on my friends, though.

The first 4 clips weren’t all that great, but now we get the goodies.

6. Why is this man on the video full of stupid people? This man is a tactical genius. There’s no other words to describe the pure genius that he is. He spotted a chick with an ass at the beach and planned ahead. He probably thought, “Okay, I want that ass. In my face. Here’s how I’m going to do it. I’m going to casually walk on the beach, enjoying the sight. I’ll pretend to think, ‘Ahh, it’s such a beautiful scenery! oh, what’s that?’ and pretend that I zoned out on something. A person. Yeah, a person would do. And I’m walking.. walking… and there’s that person I’m going to zone out on… BAM! INTENTIONAL TRIP AND MY FACE INTO THAT ASS. YEAH. I AM THE MAN.”

A tactical genius.

5. I feel kinda bad for this guy. That small boxy looking thing right next to the hot iron was probably his phone when it rang. You could guess what happened from this clip just by reading the second sentence. It’s a mistake that anyone could have made (more likely to be a woman), but that guy just got unlucky.

4. This guy is the total opposite of the guy in clip #6. This guy, is a pussy. He’s not a man. He did not have the physical strength to push that cart full of what I can only guess to be manure or cement. I’m hoping it was manure.

3. If I could title that dive I would name it, “Unintentional looking, but completely intentional dive,” and just act like I did it on purpose. That’s just embarrassing.
*Note: I did not know how to spell embarrassing until now.

2. I have a feeling that what happened in this video was (also) intentional. If you didn’t want to get hit by the ball in the face, why else would you play racquetball in your small room?

And finally…
1. This is why women should just stay at home and cook and clean. This is the one clip in the 2 minute, 30 second video where I cringed my face. To be honest, I felt bad because that had to be painful.

MVP goes to guy #6. If you disagree, you are not cool enough.

WWE/WWF (Wrestling) Fake or Fake?

Today I want to talk about the most fake “sport” in the whole universe. It is called wrestling. Not the type that goes on in the Olympics, but what today calls World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), formerly the World Wrestling Federation(WWF).

Now, wrestling belongs in the category of something I call, “The Power Rangers Effect.” People get older, they grow up, and eventually, they stop caring/watching/realizing that life is full of bulls**t.

Now back when I was five or six, I was a die hard fan of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I mean, who wasn’t? They were an international phenomenon. Now if you don’t know what the show, “The Power Rangers,” was about, you’ve clearly been living under a rock, under a bigger rock. I’ll sum it down for you: Five people manage to get their hands on watches (or “morphers”) and when evil attacks the world, they activate their morphers. When they activate these morphers, these tight nylon overall clothing comes rippling out of another dimension (+a helmet) and these Power Rangers are dressed within seconds. Power Rangers fight the bad guys, yada yada yada, fight for 10 minutes, gets in their robot, fights for another 5 minutes until they FINALLY DECIDE ON PULLING OUT THE SWORD.

Various types of Morphers. There are a lot more than these.

This sword of theirs has a special attribute: It kills any bad guy in ONE hit (IN EVERY EPISODE). Now, why in the world would they do that? The rangers need to build up suspense (as well as filling in the air time on TV) for the kids until they kill the bad guy in one hit. Power rangers were every boys’ role-model/hero. Of course, we grew up and stopped watching the show.

It’s the same mentality with wrestling.

These a-holes in tights are fighting, but for an older age group; the teens. And if you (still) think that wrestling is real, your mind is stuck in the mentality of the teens (In other words, you are as stupid as you can get).

In wrestling, the matches are all set up, what “moves” to use, when to end the fight-what sign or move would end the fight, EVERYTHING IS SET UP.

Ever notice when one guy hits another guy, he slams his foot down on the [soft] ground surface of the ring? It’s to make loud noises to make it seem like that punch or kick would actually hurt the other guy, when it doesn’t. Of course, these guys aren’t perfect, they’ll make mistakes- and those mistakes will cause injuries. Bleeding in fights isn’t a huge injury! I get nosebleeds from picking my nose all the time (Ewww you pick your nose!!! Sorry ladies, all men pick their nose from time to time. We never seem to grow up in that aspect…).

Just look at this! This as clear and blatent as the sun in the sky.

Anyways, my point is, wrestling is one of the most fake “sports” out there (if not THE most fake). I can’t believe it still has so many adult fans, and I apologize if you are one of those fans; not because I’ve offended you (and if I have, then … good), but because you are as dumb as a tree trunk. And that’s just what one Korean guy thinks, maybe others will think so too.

Steroids – Why are they banned in sports?

This guy would hit so much better with steroids.

As I flipped through YouTube, I came across a clip of a horse racing stadium with horses getting whipped to run as fast as they can. Then I thought of something genius-something that has been debated over for years; using steroids on athletes (and horses… and other things).

And even if you’re one of those PETA people, just hear me out. (And just ignore the fact that steroids are illegal)

What would you rather have? Horses getting whipped EVERY TIME THEY RACE (and don’t forget about practices) because the guy on top wants it to run faster, OR horses receiving medical help to ENHANCE (though temporary, for now) its physique, thus allowing the horses to run faster?

Now you could say, “but wouldn’t the guy on top whip the horses anyways to go faster??,” and the answer is, “No.”

Notice at the end of the race when everyone is sprinting for the finish, the riders sit low, aiming for the least amount of friction? That’s not the only reason. They’re hanging on pretty tight because they don’t want to fall while the horse is sprinting at 40 miles per hour (50+mph for quarter horses). Yes, 40 miles per hour ON A HORSE.

Stay with me here. Imagine, with the help of today’s medicine, and even tomorrow’s medicine, horses can run faster. Imagine if they could run 20mph faster, or 30, or more! The rider wouldn’t have the chance to whip anything.

Whaaat?! Horses can run faster with steroids?! Of course they can. As a matter of fact, I think the usage of steroids in sports would only help our medicinal technology. If the ban on steroids in sports were to be lifted, the need (or demand) of steroids would go up. And with that much demand, the medicinal market/industry would only work harder to develop better steroids. Maybe steroids that could help us humans live longer. I’m getting side tracked, lets get back on steroids and sports.

So. Why are steroids banned? People like to see stronger, faster, better records. I would much rather see a horse race where the horses can run 80mph than a horse race with horses at half that speed, a mere 40mph. Think of any kind of sports. Wouldn’t sports be MORE entertaining with BETTER athletes or is it just me with that thought?

Anyways, lets steer off on the side a bit. If the Olympics, for example, allowed the use of steroids, it would just make the world a better place.

Why? Look, every COUNTRY in the WORLD would try to make better steroid for their athletes. Why? They want their athletes to be number one. Why? So it shows that their country is the best in the world [in that field] and show off the size of them balls. And who wouldn’t want big balls? (Ironic?)

The development of new, better steroids could only lead to better medicine for tomorrow. Or is it? I don’t know, it’s just a thought by one Korean guy, so why would the rest of the world care?

The Most Expensive Cupcakes I’ve Ever Had

As I walked out of my room, I saw a box on the kitchen table. It was a very plain looking, white colored box. I opened it and saw cupcakes. Just four left out of six.

Now, a little thing about me; I don’t like pastries. So I nonchalantly grabbed a bowl of rice and started eating my everyday meal.

After the dinner, I look at the box again. I could’ve used some kind of dessert because the gogi (meat) and rice didn’t fill me up.

The cupcakes were all cut up into four pieces. Four cupcakes, four pieces of each cupcake. Two chocolatey cupcakes and two “regular-looking” cupcakes. They all had a ton of frosting.

I took out a fork (yes, Koreans not only use chopsticks, we also have forks for these kind of occasions) and took a bite of the chocolate cupcake with fudge frosting. I have to say, the cupcake was delicious. I’ll take another step and say it was the best cupcake I’ve ever had. As a matter of fact, every single one of those cupcakes tasted better than any other cupcake I’ve tasted in my life.

I take a look at the box and read, “Magnolia Bakery,” and I’m thinking, “I’ve never heard of this place in my life, but it tastes so goooood~.” After trying out each of the cupcakes, I ask my mom where the cupcakes came from.

She told me that my sister went to the city (NYC) today and bought them. At $3 per cupcake.

When I heard the price of the cupcakes, one thing came in my mind. “WTF?”

I would personally NEVER, EVER pay $3 for a cupcake (let alone buy 6), but I have to hand it to the Magnolia Bakery; they were very good. Now this is just my own opinion, and you don’t have to try their cupcakes out because I said they were the best cupcakes I’ve ever had. After all, I’m just one Korean guy.

Magnolia Bakery - Just look at the line! I hear it's supposedly PACKED ALL THE TIME!
