It's still popular. But personally, I grew up watching the Rock wrestling. Him and Mankind (with Mr. Socko). I used to love it. Now, wrestling seems so cheesy to me. I couldn't bear to watch it. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”

In my opinion, professional wrestling has good and bad era's....based on the characters and writing. I do not watch, but my guess is from the little I do know right now we are in a bad era.....mediocre characters and stories. The two great era's were...
mid to late 80's - WWF had Hulk Hogan, Macho Man, Hart Foundation, British Bulldogs, Roddy Piper, Curt Hennig, Jake Roberts, Ted Dibiase, Andre the Giant, The Ultimate Warrior, Ricky Steamboat, Brutus ‘the Barber’ Beefcake and so many more. At the same time, the WCW/NWA had Ric Flair (& The Four Horsemen), Rock 'n Roll Express, Midnight Express, Road Warriors, Nikita Koloff, Dusty Rhodes, Sting, Magnum T.A., Wahoo McDaniel and many more.
late 90's - WWE (was WWF) had The Rock, Steve Austin, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, The Undertaker, Kane, Chris Jericho, D-Generation X, etc. Again at the same time, WCW had their NWO (Hogan, Scott Steiner, Buff Bagwell, etc.) and NWO Wolfpack (Nash, Hall, Macho Man, Sting, etc.) factions, Goldberg, Diamond Dallas Page, etc.
What did you used to like but now look back on it and think it is pure (bleep)?

Now if we want to really go back, I'd start with slavery, the treatment of native Americans bordering on genocide, the woman's place as it was and her inability to vote, and men wearing those god-awful wigs, especially the French.

Ribeye has walked a strange and twisted path. He still has a couple of the wigs in a drawer somewhere.

JNCO jeans
Honestly have never heard of them (I googled to see what they were, and I do recall the style). Since we are talking about jeans/brands, I will add the Slater favorites, Z Cavaricci jeans! Also, the brand "SKIDZ" which was ugly plaid clothes & I.O.U. Sweatshirts....or basically anything that was sold at Merry Go Round.

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.

Sublime still (bleep) when you dig into their discography, it's just KROQ overplaying "Wrong Way" for 20 years and 311 still existing that has spoiled our memories. _________________ Under New Management

it seems pretty clear to me that he is saying at one time he fully supported slavery, treating Native Americans poorly, women knowing their place in the kitchen, and wearing wigs......and only at some time later decided those events were not as great as he once thought.

I get you were being facetious. Note the post by adkindo. That's why I posted as I did. Say hello to Candy Star, she's partying next door to you. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Let's try to answer all this in one sentence, though it really doesn't need a reply: I posted according to the title of the thread, and strange and twisted might have crossed my path once or twice or . . . and jodeke _________________ "A metronome keeps time by using a Ringo"
