What day of the week are we talking here? I usually-ish work till 5:30 PM Central M-F, duuude.

I get out of work at 4:30 central so 5:30 central is probably the earliest i can start on any day of the work week. 6:00 central is probably the most reasonable because then i get time for a quick bite to eat

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Is the earth round?...

remember when aj was on ts and he said he isn't a flat earther he just thinks some things about it makes sense

 

[newdayrocks]

Is AJ still the saltiest SOB on the planet when he loses?

Who could have guessed that the xenophobic, racist, homophobic flat-earther would be a sore loser? I'm astonished.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

The Offspring are superior, anyways. At least, up until Americana and no further.

...what? No. What? That's a terrible thing to say.

 

[Sephzilla]

I want to play Rollins in Madden just to take is pathetic Chicago Bears to the woodshed

Yaaay.

...what? No. What? That's a terrible thing to say.

The Offspring is certainly better than Pennywise, sir.

P.S. How was your lunch date with SomewhatGravy?

>: )

Hmmm?

>: )

Ehhh?

>: )

 

[UrbanDandy]

Prof Beef took the belt and left town, we're trying to track him down so he can give us his deposit for the belt

That sounds a lot like when Stan Hansen left the NWA with the belt, and it mysteriously came back and was given to Nick Bockwinkle.

I believe the current GWF World Championship contendership hierarchy goes something like this

1) BewareTheBatsie
2) sf2fanatic *
3) Pikma
4) Beefy **
5) FlammableD

* = Technically the rightful #1 contender but waived it for one match to allow Batsie to accept Professor Beef's challenge

** = Still has a rematch clause he can intact if he chooses to [Beefy is the last person who's allowed to have a rematch clause]

smh

 

[Foggy]

The best thing the Offspring did was release AFI's best albums

 

[Hasney]

The best thing the Offspring did was release AFI's best albums

Also Crazy Taxi soundtrack

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

That's not true! But it might as well be. They're all very samey. Even as a youth I figured that out with a quickness. Straight Ahead was the first Pennywise album I bought, though, so it's the one I care about. Kinda. I guess.

: )

When you're right, you're right. And you, you're right.



The one where they had the lead singer from Ignite sounded different, but yeah, that's Pennywise.

Pennywise is in the same arena as NOFX and Bad Religion for me. Where I just don't get why people love them and everything sounds the same.

Counter that with Big Boys, Cro-Mags, Bad Brains, Negative Approach, Descendents, all that shit clicks and it's also so easy to see how they were super important.

 

[Sephzilla]

smh

you lost to Beefy with your own finisher after you got cocky and didn't go for a pinfall

But at least your above Christian "Hasney" Cage in the rankings

 

[Hasney]

All I need is one more match, I'm telling you

And my own Tomko

 

[British Monsoon]

The best thing the Offspring did was release AFI's best albums

But 'Answer That and Stay Fashionable' wasn't released on Nitro

Really good album.

I do like Black Sails in the Sunset.

Pennywise is in the same arena as NOFX and Bad Religion for me. Where I just don't get why people love them and everything sounds the same.

I used to love NOFX (and still pop 'em in on occasion) and Bad Religion (you're right that they can be samey, but they're still waaay better than Pennywise).

 

[UrbanDandy]

What weight class am I in GWF?

 

[newdayrocks]

Great Offspring songs:

• Come Out and Play
• Self Esteem
• Gone Away
• Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)

All the rest ...

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

I think I just really hate Epitaph style punk

 

[Heroman]

Great Offspring ?

 

[THE GUY]

All the rest ...

That's what's gonna happen to Cena next Sunday. A decade of trash finally discarded thanks to THE BIG DAWG.

 

[Zach]

We know, Heroman. You're a man of such discernment. No one caaares.

 

[FlammableD]

I am the rare every era of AFI fan

Except Crash Love, there's like 2 decent songs on there

 

[Beefy]

Braun is dope

 

[Nekofrog]

Prof Beef took the belt and left town, we're trying to track him down so he can give us his deposit for the belt

It's going to be mailed back in pieces Stan Hansen style, except with cool ranch Doritos flavor dust all over it.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

This is one hell of a fucking promo from Dusty. What a lost skill where things now are all about being meta and dissing: https://youtu.be/pOli1iSjr7s?t=2m18s

AFI early punk albums, especially Black Sails, are really wonderful

 

[Zach]

I actually have a soft spot for The Offspring's debut album. I listened to it a lot while playing GTA 1 or 2 on PC.

I am the rare every era of AFI fan

Except Crash Love, there's like 2 decent songs on there

I love "Veronica Sawyer Smokes".

 

[FlammableD]

If you don't love YAH YAH YAH YAH YAH you're dead inside

I love "Veronica Sawyer Smokes".

Yep, that's one of them.

 

[Dental Plan]

Saturn vs Raven at Fall Brawl 98 was on fire. Crowd loved it. Best match of Fall Brawl 98 so far.

 

[Zach]

Also re: AFI, they are one of my favorite concerts. They were great live right after Sing the Sorrow. Loved it.

If you don't love YAH YAH YAH YAH YAH you're dead inside

It's OwensIsNow's theme song.

 

[FlammableD]

Also re: AFI, they are one of my favorite concerts. They were great live right after Sing the Sorrow. Loved it.

Ahh, that would have been dope, I always wanted to hear Miseria Cantare live. Saw them when I was young after Decemberunderground came out, at uni after Crash Love, then went to see Deftones at Alexandra Palace just to see the AFI support set with my wife.

 

[Brian_FETO]

I definitely don't care about post 90s AFI overall but there's some decent tracks mixed in....

 

[Foggy]

AFI before its goth pop punk phase was an S-tier concert experience. So was Andrew WK and his 17 guitarists. Andrew WK live felt 10x more heavy than the albums.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Y'all making me put on Black Sails now. What an incredibly awesome 1-2 punch for this album

 

[THE GUY]

Braun is dope

They really should have done Brock/Braun at TLC. It would've been an easy way to get the title on Strowman while Lesnar doesn't have to get pinned or submitted. That way we could've gotten a short run where Braun destroys Balor and Bray, before finally getting the big rematch with Lesnar at Royal Rumble.

I wonder if Brock is going to be at Survivor Series. You would think so.

 

[Brian_FETO]

Very Proud Of Ya and the Hallows EP are my faves

Yeah, this discussion keeps sidetracking my Top 150 Albums by Women project. >_>

You just had to mention All Hallow's. God dang it. It's, like, the best.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Zach and Hex, Porphyria is making me feel young and wanting to finger point. Which is a problem because I'm at work and I'm pretty sure office moshing is frowned upon

 

[SallyIsNow]

More like TURN IT OFFspring

If y'all really enjoy older AFI I recommended checking out Nerve Agents and Redemption 87. R87 members went on to be in AFI & Nerve Agents, and Nerve Agents were one of the other 'big' North Bay bands

 

[Mahonay]

AFI's All Hallows EP is one of my favorite albums off all time.

 

[serenewarfare]

So as of the NXT tapings last night, we know 3 of the 4 women competing for Women's Title at Takeover.

Kairi Sane vs. Peyton Royce vs. Ember Moon vs. ?

I'm too old for new no-name wonders.

Mahonay's not as bad as you all swear he is.

 

[Angry Grimace]

And why the heck are there 17 songs on this album? Was that necessary, Pennywise? No. It wasn't. You could've cut this thang down to 10 or 12 and it would've had the same effect. Or even a more pronounced effect.

I hate you, Pennywise. I hate you.

It's because a bunch of their songs are like 1:20.

I thought I was hot s when I learned "Alien" on the guitar, though. And so did the ladies, you know what I'm saying, OwensIsNow?! Yah! Whataboutit! Alriiight!

I think at one point I could do all of "Straight Ahead' and "Land of the Free" on guitar. I'm sure I still remember a lot of it via muscle memory. I mean, it's all just power chords.

But I mean, yeah they were a jam when I was 18, but I have a far better memory of every Lagwagon album and obviously stuff like Rancid's "...and Out Come the Wolves" than anything Pennywise did beyond Bro Hymn.

AFI's All Hallows EP is one of my favorite albums off all time.

Art of Drowning is a great album, but I legit don't think they made the wrong move not playing speed-punk beyond that album. They're definitely getting emo beyond Sing the Sorrow, but they're still good tunes and way more distinct than a guy dressed like a Vampire angrily shouting into a mic.

So as of the NXT tapings last night, we know 3 of the 4 women competing for Women's Title at Takeover.

Spoiler

Kairi Sane vs. Peyton Royce vs. Ember Moon vs. ?

Not going to be even vaguely surprised if

Spoiler

they try to bring Shayna Baszler in for that.

 

[serenewarfare]

Also, Nikki Cross seemingly feuding with

Does anyone even listen to Samhain? Those were good days.
