So, I've recently started college and needless to say, I've been watching a lot of wrestling. My roommate does not understand my fixation with it, but he's been watching it with me occasionally. While I've been more than happy to explain to him what's going on and why I enjoy it, there have been some aspects I cannot defend. Example: Anyone got anymore?

"They all wear SPEEDOS! Anyone who watches that must be GAY!"
"They are all on STEROIDS!"
"BENOIT KILLED HIS FAMILY AND ALL WRESTLERS ARE LIKE HIM!"
Just a few I have heard.

This cannot ever be defended. Bingo. When I saw the title of this thread, Katie Vick was the first thing that came into my head.

Just start crying and yell, "It's still real to me dammit!" That should be all the explanation your roommate needs.

*shrugs* I don't even bother. I'd like them to explain to me how they can watch Big Brother first.

Whenever my brother makes fun of my watching wrestling, I just bring up the fact that Battlefield Earth is one of his favorite movies.

I don't know....but for me, it's hardest to defend being a fan whenever someone brings up all of those wrestlers who have passed away so young. It's like, how do I begin justifying being a fan of a "sport" where the guys and gals are treated so shabbily? Because in the eyes of some, being a fan an d paying for DVDs, and merchandise of the wrestlers, is endorsing the shabby treatment.
Dunno if that made sense to anyone, but that's my two cents.

Quick story: My friend says "WOO!" out of nowhere. I say "No, it's "WOOOOOOOOO!" Like Ric Flair." He responds "Who the hell is Ric Flair?" I point out a picture of Ric and do you know what says? "Oh, the wrestling homosexual."
Strangely, I've had positive conversations about wrestling in the past but that was when just about everybody was watching it. Though, I did have a brief talk with my 11th grade math teacher about wrestling. He was a huge NWA fan and I wish I had known more about it at the time. I told him why I quit watching (Katie Vick, necrophillia, etc.) and he was like "What the hell?"I also found out this summer that my older brother liked Sting, Booker T, and Eddie Guerrero yet hated HHH from the first day he saw him in WCW.

i don't feel any need to defend it, especially since most of the people who want to make fun of me about it are the lord of the rings watchers of the world.
sure guys, my wrestling is stupid, but your 3 boring ass movies full of mystical, magical, fake midgets and elves walking to a volcano while battling orcs and talking to trees is oh so super awesome.

In recent memory:
Me: Hey guys the WWE Draft is on lets watch the last 15 mins Guy A: (who hardly watches wrestling): Oh sweet Guy B: (same thing) Ya this sounds like a treat Guy C, D, E: It's all fake stupid crap
*Edge and Batista botch the double spear attempt and Batista is bleeding hard and Edge seems out of it
Guy C,D,E: I kind of take that back
*15 mins later the stage falls on Vince McMahon
Guy A, B, C, D, E all look at me waiting for me to give out an explanation
Me: I feel stupid but I guess they want to increase ratings for the dumb redneck fans and small children?

I'm sorry, but you can't deny the Dungeon of Doom wasn't entertaining.
