[kj] [OT] rare t shirt on ebay.

[Brendan]

I find the wrestling itself boring beyond comprehension but the drama behind
it quite interesting. They have a pretty high death rate due to the constant
touring, and the cocktail of steroids, painkillers, and whatever else they
take for fun or to get to sleep in their hotel rooms when they're on the
road. At the end of their careers they're pretty fucked generally. Not many
other 'sports' compete year around at the frequency they do.

(I didn't know "Queering" was a verb) 
 
No offense to any WWF viewers - and even less offense to the World Wildlife 
Fund itself - but the Irony in that vid being that Wrestle'tainment is so
plainly homoerotic 
that that guy could even get away with speaking like that.

How surreal is it that THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR, after his steroid-bitch-tits
incomprehensible romp through WWF (see the vid of the other wrestlers and
WWF notables laughing at him), converted to Objectivism and tried to get
up in front of people and make sense about it:

This guy shoulda been in The Wrestler. He's seriously thinking about, or
has, changed his surname by deed poll to Warrior. Lucky family.
