Wrestling is Real

I don't understand why many people think professional wrestling is fake. Wrestling is NOT fake. Wrestling is a legitimate sport. When Hulk Hogan lifted up Andre the Giant at Wrestlemania 3 in front of a crowd over 93,000 people it was all real. There is no faking the action, blood, sweat and tears of a wrestling match. If wrestling was fake, why would Shawn Michaels have tears of joy in his eyes the very first time he won the WWE championship? If wrestling wasn't real, shouldn't Shawn Michaels have just walked off to the back emotionless? This proves wrestling is real: after years of struggling, Shawn Michaels finally reached the top of the mountain, and he couldn't help but display pure joy.

Many wrestlers have received severe injuries over the years. If wrestling was fake, there wouldn't be any injuries. Every wrestler would walk away just fine in a staged fight. Professional wrestling matches aren't staged fights. They're the real deal. When a wrestler steps into the ring he puts his body on the line in a grueling competition of physicality.

Many people get confused by the term "sports entertainment." Detractors of professional wrestling believe this proves wrestling is fake. They're wrong! Sports entertainment refers to the fact that there is some theatricality during the shows. Each wrestler has their own custom entrance theme. Each wrestler has their own unique introduction. Many wrestlers even get pyro during their entrances. Furthermore, many wrestlers get on the mic and try to get inside their opponent's head with derogatory words. A lot of wrestlers will get on the mic and talk about how great they are - Ric Flair was a master of this! The matches have to get promoted, so a little bit of theatrics goes a long way to sell tickets. 

Wrestling is just as real as every other sport. Anybody who thinks wrestling is fake is just dumb!

Spongebob — The Forgotten Diet Dr. Kelp

 The greatest moment in cartoon history, in my opinion, was when Spongebob and Squidward delivered the very first Krusty Krab Pizza. After going through hell and high water to get the pizza to the guy's house, Spongebob shook his ass gleefully and said, "I can't wait to see the look on the customer's face!" Spongebob rang the doorbell cheerfully, and the customer, who was some species of fish, immediately answered. Spongebob triumphantly announced that his Krusty Krab Pizza had finally arrived. The fish's mouth started to salivate with delightful anticipation, and he said, "Thanks, I've been dying for one of these!"  But then suddenly the fish's happy face turned into a frown.  "Where's my drink?" He inquired.   "What drink?" Spongebob asked, a hint of nervousness in his voice. The customer got irritated, and his blood pressure started to rise.  "MY DRINK! MY DIET DR. KELP! DON'T TELL ME YOU FORGOT MY DRINK!&

"Space Jam: A New Legacy" is the Greatest Movie of All Time

When I saw Al Pacino completely transform into Michael Corleone in the first two Godfather movies, I never thought I would see a greater acting performance. Al Pacino's Michael Corleone started off as a mild-mannered man who didn't want to take any part in his family's illegal mafia activities. However, after his father is attacked by a rival gang, Michael Corleone reluctantly takes it upon himself to avenge him. He kills both Virgil "The Turk" Sollozzo, who initiated the attack, and the corrupt police captain Mark McCluskey in a fine Italian restaurant (I wonder if that place is still in business) -- I heard the veal was the best in town.  Michael Corleone initially flees to Sicily to escape the authorities, but when his older bother Sonny Corleone is killed as retribution for his actions, Michael Corleone comes back and takes over as the Don of the family. His father, Vito Corleone, dies of a sudden heart attack -- but not before giving him final instructions on

Tsuris At A Concert

It's no secret that I'm a gay man. I support the LGBTQ+ community whenever I get the chance. I go to rallies, go to pride parades, attend support meetings, and do whatever I can to help my fellow brothers and sisters in this marginalized community.  One of the biggest things I do is support LGBTQ athletes, artists, authors and musicians. I attend a lot of concerts where one or more members of the band are LGBTQ. Even if the artist is already dead, I still do whatever I can to make sure their legacy never fades away.  I'm a huge Queen fan. I believe that Freddie Mercury is the greatest singer who ever lived. One of the greatest regrets of my life was that I never got to see this man live. In the 70s and 80s, when Queen was in their heyday, I regrettably refused to attend their shows.  For many years I repressed my homosexuality. For a huge chunk of my life I was a fundamentalist religious nut. Even though I knew I was gay, I tried to repress my desires and live in accordance
