    @Jackie Moon what are the extra bits in the box?

     

    a second strap, main strap is leather, second is a... the word escapes me right now, not vinyl but like... kind of like a tent material? like camping tent? (I love camping, it's totally in tents).

    Fuck I can't think of the word but it's a cloth type material. kind of military but black.

    (edit - i thought of the word, canvas! Canvas is the word i was searching for. what a genius. Jackie you idiot).

    The other thing is just a tool to switch out the straps. The back has an engraving with detail on Apollo 15, the mission this watch (not literally this watch), was used. I put it in my vault because I'm mainly interested in owning it, not wearing it (i'm clumsy and i bump into shit), but if you are interested i'll take some pictures. It will probably be this

    + a watch.

    I really want an omega speedmaster but spending more than like $500 on a watch is outrageous to me. this one was available to me at a discount, so it was one of those "i can't not do this" moments.

    When I wear it out i'll probably be wearing one of those covid pool noodle crowns.

    Anyone on here into watches? Been getting into them the past few years. Don’t have anything crazy (yet), but it’s fun to look! 
     

    One day I’d like to buy a nice Omega Seamaster. I’ve wanted one since I was a kid watching a Pierce Brosnan Bonds :lol:

    my boss, a billionaire, has the original omega speedmaster, i think it's something like $80,000? I've always framed him in the reference of "the axl rose effect", as in, at a certain point reality just doesn't apply.

  4. I have around $20,000 in watches, which is fucking embarrassing. I didn't buy all of them, lots were gifts. I work for a company with a swiss watch wing, so they keep coming my way. But I did drop $1,000 on the Bulova Lunar Pilot today. like actually today. I feel good about that purchase. Or at least I'm telling myself that.

  5. she wrote you make loving fun, a song that for sure fucks, in a band with her husband, about a person who is not her husband, actually the drummer, and he performed it for decades.

    that's fucking gangster and that lady is a legend forever.

  6. I was born in 85', very into wrestling until 1996 or so. Around that time I thought I'm too old for this... and i was 11... it was so fucking dumb. I think back on people i knew at the time who took it so seriously - shout out Bonnie Whynot. Did she think the Ultimate Warrior is some sort of animal they keep in a cage backstage? The Undertaker is an actual undertaker who moonlights as a wrestler? i try not to think about it too much otherwise it's super depressing.

    When I was like 8 i would be wearing my ultimate warrior shirt and adults around me would scoff "that's so phony" - and they were right, i mean obviously they were right, but they were right to have that reaction because it was presented as legit, they should have dismissed it because it was fucking insane. Acknowledging the phoniness of it changed everything and I'm only now catching up.

    This year I watched wrestlemania, watched the raw after, and since then I'm 100% back in baby. It's so amazing how this thing has changed. Now everybody is in on the joke, it's a collective performance, the crowd is as important as the performers. It's so fucking good it's hard to really explain to people (I've tried).

    When i turn on my bathroom fan, which is push button, I do it maximum male models style. It's a lot of fun and I encourage you to do the same. Maybe live stream it. and whatever happens after.

    Thanks for hearing me out - i have a good will offering - I recreated the Wrestlemania 4 poster and a 88' Macho Man poster in high res, had a local print shop create posters (shout out chinese print shops, copyrights can get fucked)  - if interested i'll send you the files

    It was bananas but this place was really fun 10 years ago lol

    I'm thinking of making a comeback. I'm not sure I can ever recapture the 2010 Jackie Moon magic, that was a moment in time and that ship has sailed. But I'm sure i can come up with something.

    except that one of the people that got a promotion was hired AFTER me. Which according to EVERY co-worker I have talked to, promotions always go to whomever has been there the longest. So basically, I got screwed out of 1 of those promotions.

    Was this person more qualified for the job? Seniority is not everything... not sure what the job was... but lets just say you work at a hotel, and you're both front desk agents. You've worked there for 5 years, previously worked at a warehouse. This person has worked there for a year.

    but they moved to town because their spouse is going to school in the area, relocation, they previously worked for 6 years as supervisor of the front desk team at an upscale resort hotel & spa.

    A supervisor position opens up - who gets it? The person with seniority, or the person with experience?

    ----

    I sympathize with you dude, we're sympathizing here, i've also been in a position where i felt i 'got screwed over' - with time and experience, i see i was not screwed over, and what happened was a very rational decision.

    But at the time? They were the devil, and i was entirely wronged.

  9. I have a jackie moon costume (no really, I do)

    Its a Halloween costume, but I've never worn it on Halloween. I've only worn it a few times, exclusively to floor hockey games. It was a lot of fun, well, i mean, i had fun, not sure about everyone else. the shorts are REALLY short.

    ANYWAYS, the point is, the fun thing about this gnr reunion is - i feel i could show up as Jackie Moon, and the 99% of the crowd who isn't privy to this forum or my profile would not really think much of it. I mean, it would turn heads, but no one would be outraged or upset.

    It's not entirely ridiculous, from time to time you go to a minor league basketball game and 1 of the 3,500 in attendance is dressed like a stormtrooper, these things happen.

    I want Enzo and Cass to get the call-up to fight New Day before they go too far past the shark. Those two teams cutting promos on each other would just be marvelous. Can't you just see the New Day mocking them? "My name is Enzo Amore, and I am certified garbage, and you can't teach that. And this right here? This is Big Cass, and he's 7 feet of booty. And you can't teach that."

    It's the little things they do that are amazing,

    The bold part is best;

    "he's like the Michael Jordan... of baseball!"

    "lolol!"

    "he was terrible"

    Or whatever - you get the point. They are very good - but they need to bring it down maybe 7-8%

    AND YOU CAN'T. TEACH. THAT.

    I really...really wanted to hate that guy, but they're all fucking fantastic.

    This is right here is Carmella, and shes hot as hell, AND YOU CAN'T. TEACH. THAT.

    New Day is dangerously close to jumping the shark. You heard it here first(ish).

  12. I'm seeing a report that the cause of death was a blow to the head - so it is reasonable to believe he slipped and hit his head - i know the lack of shoes looks bad - but he was known to run barefoot? I don't want to speculate, but no one has committed suicide via blows to the head- whatever he was doing - i believe he slipped and hit his head.

    not sure which is worse - but if it was an accident, and it appears so - it's important everyone understands, he died via accident. Important detail.

  13. Anybody else high on the Social Outcasts? They're my favorite tag team. The New Day are great, very clever, but I feel its maybe 15% too much. TSO have the sweet spot, IMO.

    The New Day, they're all doing the same thing. more or less. TSO - the infighting is the best part - fighting over the nicknames. I love it.
