We've seen TNA/Impact go through the lowest, including a drugged Jeff Hardy ruining a main event. If that hasn't killed Impact, this probably won't kill AEW.

I want to go back six months ago and tell everyone that the Elite vs. Undisputed Era will never happen and instead the Elite become the first Trios champions then immediately vacate them due to a backstage scuffle following CM Punk calling them out while eating muffins that included Kenny Omega saving a dog and being bitten by Ace Steel. You know, thinking about it, the concept of going back in time to mention this or that seems like too much work. Go back in time, tell people of the sudden unexpected insanity... and one will probably be met with doubt and mockery. Then you gotta wait until things happen and be vindicated. Probably better to remember lottery numbers or some other get rich scheme, then make your own wrestling promotion with knowledge of the future to get a hard grip on the market. Yes... a promotion that allows live cannibalism. ...what?

Man, I've never had Filipino food, but it looks soo good. Amusingly, I feel that a lot of good dishes here look pretty iffy. Mentioned it more than once elsewhere in the forum, like take papaitan for example. Rough translation of the name is essentially "bitter". Essentially a soup/stew of beef/pork/goat organs, some meat, and bile. Can't really do much to make it presentable, but it tastes amazing. Bitter is just one component, there's spiciness, sourness, saltiness. Like, here's the best I could do to make it presentable.

One thing that vaguely amused me about Jolibee. Overseas Jolibee apparently has adobo rice, and I've seen comments saying why we don't have that in the Philippines. Like, we're here, adobo is super easy to cook. It's the meal best as home cooked. Wife is Filipina transplant and have a kid who lived off of the adobo rice they have there (pickiest of eaters). Really isn't anything to write home about, nothing more than the usual fast food rice with the remnants of the bottom of an adobo pot with some chicken bits thrown in for good measure. It's passable at best, nothing to be jealous of (my pasty ass can make a better variant just on sheer laziness alone lol). As an aside, my favorite go-to is Bicol Express (wife's a Bicolano to be more specific so you know), it's legit the only way they can entice me to go to those ridiculous Christmas Eve/Day parties at midnight lmao. In general, so much Filipino food is best home-cooked. All the rice you can eat and lots of the other stuff. And yeah, Bicol Express is good. Creamy, spicy, meaty. Unhealthy but so delicious.

Better example is a number of wrestler not getting something but being okay with it because the crowd reacts to it.
Like, unfortunately CM Punk falls in with the Road Doggs and Al Snows where if they don't like something then it doesn't work.

Kinda wish the AEW game is here, so I can get my fix of VTubers streaming the game if they do play it. Since so far it's WWE games.

Still blows my mind that so far no has disputed Kenny Omega saving a dog and getting bit, and the dog didn't do the biting.

I don't think Sean Ross Sapp has a promotion...yet. SRS Presents: Oh Jeez Jeezing all over the place. Tree semen edition.

Plus Danielson is less likely to eat a person, or know a person that would eat a person. Protein from tree semen.

He's gonna make his own wrestling promotion, with blackjack and hookers.

To commemorate the thread with something completely unrelated, here's a shark girl singing a Sabaton song. Fauna reacting the backstage fight That stream had some appropriate timing with the muffins and what has happened so far.

Hey now, he ain't a looker but lets not call Ace Steel names. You know, dog owners claim their dog is cute despite how they look, but this is getting a bit silly.

Because my neck is killing me and I can't sleep (damn I'm ready to have this surgery), I'd like to add one thing about where to get fried chicken, being from South Carolina, if it isn't from a random looking gas station you're more than likely doing it wrong... Can relate somewhat. Here, there'd be vendors with a cart that's essentially a wok with boiling oil and all they're selling is fried chicken. No rice, no sides, nothing else but chicken getting deep fried. Maybe some banana ketchup. They're so greasy, but holy hell it hits the spot.

Honestly, best chicken I've ever had was chicken necks. Homemade. No breading, just marinated in fish sauce and fried until crispy. So much skin, and just a bit of meat. And you got a heap of rice.
Alas, at my age can't really go wild with those anymore.

Philippines here. McDo and KFC can be iffy, but Jolibee is good. Not that they can't be iffy, but there's a reason why McDo ain't the number one fast food here. What say you about the Philippines patented Chicken and a Soda combo that they apparently like to do? Where the Chicken is in a bowl on top of the soda? I think that's a trend for those watching at movie theaters. Not much of a guy who'd go there and if I do I prefer cheese popcorn, so can't really comment on it.

When my dad went to the Philippines he went to Jolibee and said the chicken's pretty dope for a fast food place. Fried chicken... now that brings me back to another iconic FAN thread. We love fried chicken here. Like, the plain fried chicken in KFC is never crispy. McDo lacked something in theirs (as well as their Filipino spaghetti). Jolibee hits nice for cheap fried chicken. 7/11 and Ministops also got good fried chicken game.

I forgot the majority of you guys are American, so the quality of your fast food is so low, no offense. I really want a McMuffin with egg and sausage right now... If you think the quality of our fast food varies and is interesting, you should see the Chinese Food. I have a Chinese Food places in every county around me in the multiples and the food is all different and all varying in quality My local rocks though, have always liked them. They're more a Takeout place, there are Buffet's too, and they're also great. One place about 40 minutes from me has a make your own Hibachi meal and really good Salmon and Coconut Shrimp They say the fancier the Chinese Food place the higher chance of it being bad or less authentic it is, you want the holes in the wall, and I can vouch because there's a little place attached to a strip of like four stores about an hour away (We stop there when my friend goes on card shop runs) that has the best General Tsos I've ever had, bar none. Breaded Butterfly Shrimp was crazy fresh too. Man. I miss buffets. There's a nearby samgyupsal place here. Still open, but still don't wanna risk it for a while longer. All the pork (and beef if you pay extra) you can eat. Plus rice, cheese, side dishes, and iced tea also all you can eat.
