This is the segment where they got fined for laughing too much and did many retakes.

People like this Jack guy and those other idiots on youtube with their "pranks" deserve to get slapped, dropped, clowned. How did these kids get raised smh

Who will win? Remember, Fury basically lost. If Francis had more boxing matches and boxing experience under his belt then Francis would have smoked Fury.

Did you guys/gals read any of the comments that people posted and can relate to them when you all were growing up?

Also, regarding the retirement age social security thing. If the government didn't poach the social security funds then there wouldn't need to be "raising the age". Why didn't the government treat social security like a 401K and invest all of the funds in the markets????????????????

I can only imagine the absolute goldmine of material going on in his live-chat section as this was happening....moderators probably had to put in serious work that day. "No this is not a pregnancy announcement, guys." bruh... 😆

ah, so Jasper the Cat is still there as well, I see.

Surprised Zatalcon didn't reply...

I'll just leave this here for the comments...

Some of these comments do make sense though. Half of the GenZ parents are (wait for it) GenX. So it does make sense that they get coddled because we GenX folks were mostly latch key kids and had to fend for ourselves and were ignored and shit if you think about. So they're vicariously living through their GenZ kids.

Read some of the replies to this post. I know most of you in elementary school or junior high school had one of those teachers who would go straight up Full Metal Jacket on you or another student over some screw ups.

This kid was apparently the first person to "beat" tetris on the NES by kill screening it.  I don't think this anchor realizing how fucking old Tetris on the NES is and how fucking boss it is that he's currently the 1st and ONLY person to have done this in *checks* 30 years.   That sounds pretty fucking amazing to me!

Yeah just saw the youtube video yesterday. It already has almost 8,000,000 views and it's only 7 days old!!!

Wonder if the arcade version of Tetris is similar to the NES version of Tetris.

Wonder if someone can truly beat Tetris though by going to level 255 then back to level 0

I found out in the arcades that you can do them like the drones (CPU controlled characters). Press jab or short first until just before you think the slaps or kicks come out then only press fierce or roundhouse real fast. Or you can just press fierce or roundhouse real fast in certain conditions.

Yes, have a great week of holidays coming up or has been to include all of the holidays being celebrated to include Christmas because Christmas is a holiday because it is holy.

When it comes to the Supreme Court. The precedent was set in 2000. The Supreme Court decided 5-4, IIRC, that Bush should be President. This opinion I am about to express has nothing to do with legal matters. Neither Trump or Biden should be on the ballot, but they both will be and we are still fucked either way. The fact is that most of the country would rather have neither of these dudes, yet the Democrats and Republicans are going to roll them out anyway, speaks volumes on what's wrong with our country. Of course it could be worse, we could have a leader that was convicted of corruption carpet bombing civilians to take out the terrorist organization he empowered in the first place...

This is why I keep preaching to the general public that if you vote for Trump or if you vote for Biden then you are the problem, not them. Also, if you want change then don't vote for the Republicans and don't vote for the Democrats.

Looks like the wrestling we know today started roughly 90 years ago in the 1930s:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_wrestling

Even back then:

Quote

Towards the end of the 1930s, faced with declining revenues, promoters chose to focus on grooming charismatic wrestlers with no regard for their skill, because it was charisma that drew the crowds, and wrestlers who were both skilled at grappling and charismatic were hard to come by. Since most of the public by this time knew and accepted that professional wrestling was fake, a background in authentic wrestling no longer mattered. After this time, matches became more outlandish and gimmicky, and any semblance professional wrestling had to catch wrestling faded. The personas of the wrestlers likewise grew more outlandish.

Quote

Gorgeous George, who performed throughout the 1940s and 1950s, was the first wrestler whose entrance into the arena was accompanied by a theme song played over the arena's loudspeakers, his being Pomp and Circumstance. He also wore a costume: a robe and hairnet, which he removed after getting in the ring. He also had a pre-match ritual where his "butler" would spray the ring with perfume. In the 1980s, Vince McMahon made entrance songs, costumes, and rituals standard for his star wrestlers. For instance, McMahon's top star Hulk Hogan would delight the audience by ripping his shirt apart before the match.

Another fascinating thing of mystery that's fun to wonder about... Mars and certain things there that look like they *might* not be naturally occurring objects...

I wasn't aware of NASA's apparent reluctance (oh what a surprise there) to take pictures for a while after people started wondering what's up with that one thing that looks like a monument of a humanoid face...

**also this is the first time I'm finding out that for all these years, they were using an orange filter for all pictures from there?!?!

 

Yeah, me too. Found out a few months ago. The sky isn't actually red on Mars. The sky resembles Earth's sky if you're standing on Mars!!!

Don't know if Midway planned the Kitana Liu Kang romance early on in the games. If nobody knows, the actor for Liu Kang and the actress for Kitana in the MKII game were an item back then. Same thing for MK3 when the actor for Shao Kahn and the actress for Sindel were an item.

These would be terrible in SF6.  They don't go with the game at all.  These "sound" like 16 bit songs on SNES. 

These are the actual sounds from the arcade machines. Some of the "instruments" are louder than others.

These remixes:

Remixes of the arcade SFII CPS1 themes. they should put these in SF6 as a special content theme for the characters. These are bangers!!!

There won't be peace because Israel doesn't want it. I'm tired of people pretending otherwise. It takes two to tango and its not just Hamas, Zionists do not want peace. That's who is running the Israeli government. The best chance for peace was Israeli Prime Minister Yitzak Rabin. He signed the Oslo Accords* with Yaser Arafat the head of the Palestinian Liberation Organization. Rabin was assassinated by a Zionist in 1995. Netanyahu is a Zionist. "From the river to the sea" is a part of their political charter. They don't want peace, they want to wipe out the Palestinians. And all you have to do is look at the comments they make in local Israeli media. They are in violation of multiple UN laws. They don't honor the Geneva Convention. Collective punishment is illegal. They've been doing so for years. They have control over the water, power, and fuel of Gaza. The don't allow any independent media into Gaza. Any media you see in Gaza has to be approved by the IDF and the IDF has to approve of the footage and what they broadcast before it be released. They have a "mowing the grass" policy where they periodically go into to Gaza and mow the grass. The grass being Palestinians. The IDF arms the illegal settlers in the West Bank. And the biggest one of all is them propping up Hamas** so they can have extremist foil that will allow them to commit a sorts of atrocities have people look the other way.  So they can prevent a two state solution from ever coming to fruition. They've already killed more civilians than Russia has in Ukraine. IDF estimates say 1/3 of Palestinians killed were Hamas***. There have been over 17,000 people killed so far which puts over 11,000 people as collateral damage by the IDF numbers. The IDF isn't exactly reliable but even taking them at their word makes the death toll for innocent civilians reprehensible.

 

The IDF claimed that Al-Shifa hospital was a Hamas command center. It's illegal to attack a hospital even during war. It has to be proven that it's military operation before you launch an attack. Which was not done. They strolled through the hospital filming "uncut" video as evidence. They pointed to a "terror schedule" on  the wall that ended up being a calendar in Arabic. They showed a hiding place for guns that was behind an MRI machine. Literally the worst place to hide metal arms and munitions in an active hospital. Then finally the showed a Hamas Laptop that viewers quickly realized was an IDF laptop. Suddenly that "uncut" video got pulled down, edited, and re-uploaded. That's not even getting into the fact that the "tunnels" under the Hospital were dug by Israel in their previous occupation of the hospital. Yet, they could not provide anything showing this headquarters. Despite all the coverage of Al-Shifa its one of several hospitals hit by the IDF.

 

They killed numerous UN aid workers, 102**** the last I heard. You can read about it the papers of course the articles read that they "died" in Gaza. No they were killed by Israel. Along with numerous reporters. In the initial days of the conflict, you'd get satellite photos showing before and after images. Of course Israel shut that down. It's kind of hard to say you are "trying to avoid" civilian casualties while leveling entire apartment complexes. I've dime ranted on this long enough. 

 

TLDR: The ZIonist government of Israel doesn't want peace and are no better than Hamas. They indiscriminately kill civilians, propped up Hamas** in the first place. And are in violation of numerous international laws.

There will never be peace in the Middle East. Or should I say that there will never be peace on Earth.  For the Middle East there has been turmoil since probably before the Old Testament.
