I wouldn't mind seeing a DVD set of the DiC/Cloverway Sailor Moon dub.

Just because you're entitled to an opinion doesn't mean you're entitled to another's respect of it.

Says the person who watches baseball...and not just baseball, but bad baseball. Hey if it were a popular opinions thread, believe me I'd be the first to post that the mets suck Haha, true enough. Pretty soon your opinion on Eli is going to fall into that category too unless something changes.

I have no idea why women think they need to get boob jobs especially if they already good looking. The implants actually worked when she was in WWE; she was WAY more muscular at the time, and they kind of evened her proportions out. She's still fit as could be, but has definitely toned down the muscle, so the implants would have looked cartoonish. It seems like many a fitness model gets them to begin with. I never liked Brittany Spears' Toxic. I don't think the Fingerpoke of Doom was the dagger for WCW per se.

For most people, the ice bucket challenge is less about raising awareness for motor neurone disease and more about watching celebrities throw water over themselves. Not only is it a waste of water, but like "All The Single Ladies" dancing videos, KONY, BringBackOurGirls, Gangham Style and the Harlem Shake, it will be forgotten about when the next fashionable viral fad comes along.

And the Fingerpoke of Doom WASN'T the dagger. But it was the beginning of the end, because it put the old farts back on top and renewed the already stale NWO gimmick.

You kinda contradicted yourself without knowing it with the above. How can you essentially say it's disrespectful for someone to do something, but then say it's OK for someone to say something that might offend another? Because I question the validity of why it's offensive. Racial slurs are undisputedly bad beause they are said with malice. The word "midget" is not offensive. It was not a slur. It's just something a group has decided out of nowhere is now pejorative after it being the accepted terminology for years. Midgets can call themselves whatever they want. I don't take umbrage. But someone, a non-midget, getting mad because I don't use the current silly made-up term just amuses me. I hate people on soap boxes. Just the way I'm wired. No, the word midget came about in the 19th century and was made popular by PT Barnum(yeah, the circus guy). So it is not the default term for them. Considering the word midget is always used to laugh at their physical appearance, it is very understandable why they would hate the word. Have you ever heard the word used to describe little people in a non-joking matter? There's a reason it's not used for names of support groups for little people. You can use whatever offensive words you want, but don't act like you're not cherry picking with terms here.

Aside from Smackdown! Shut Your Mouth, I've never really been that fond of the Smackdown series of video games and was actually very disappointed when THQ decided to make them multiplatform. That includes the critically acclaimed HCTP which I, myself, personally find rather mediocre.

I don't care if it's not the actual title. I'm calling the song that The Who sings about Teenage Wasteland TEENAGE WASTELAND. I don't want to take whatever psychadelic pills they took that makes Babaganush or whatever title makes sense.

Anyway I hate Daniel Bryan and pineapples. Well in my opinion I consider anime a certain art style rather than its country of origin, but I guess I can see your point.

You can use whatever offensive words you want, but don't act like you're not cherry picking with terms here. No worries, I will. That said, what was the default name for them prior to the rechristening of "Little People"? And yes, I've heard it plenty of times in my life in a manner not intended to be insulting. Until recently, most people assumed that it was just what they were called. Like a person without pigment was called an Albino. That said, Little People is just about the stupidest sounding rebrand ever. It sounds worse. I mean, hey, all the power to someone who wants to be called that. But they should have taken that one back to the little table for reevaluation if you ask me. Because I question the validity of why it's offensive. Racial slurs are undisputedly bad because they are said with malice. The word "midget" is not offensive. It was not a slur.

What's your opinion on the use of referring to the term "retard" to describe a mentally handicapped individual? Is that meant with malice or is that different than using a racial slur? I would never call a disabled person that. That's just cruel. I mean, my sister is severely disabled. And not in the cute and useful Rainman way wherein I can make a fortune in Vegas. But I'd be lying if I said that I didn't use the term as slang occasionally. It doesn't really bother me. What an I say. Even despite my sister being disabled. It's just a word. I don't let them have power. If someone called my sister retard I wouldn't lose my shit. I'd just zero in on whatever that person's weakness is and verbally rip them apart and have fun doing so. That's what I do.

My Little Pony is an offensively bad TV show. There's a lot of cartoons like it that are great - Adventure Time - but I really don't understand any of the enjoyment for MLP.

Speaking of Adventure Time, I really hate the show's art-style.
