Humor is subjective. Lynching isn't funny to some people.

But Zombie Benoit stuff is. Oy.
But, as you said, guess it's subjective. Hell it'd have to be subjective, as the arbitrary standards that would draw a line between what
offensive joke is truly offensive and what is just humor make no kind of sense at all.

Gail Kim.
That limo sequence was so bad but at least they didn't run him over (like JBL/Cena). Still, couldn't the NXT guys have done more damage
just by collectively putting the boots to Bret? Is he so far gone he can't even convincingly take a beating?
The NXT guys making demands is kind of ridiculous because obviously they can't do any real damage if the locker room tries to stop them.
And Otunga really does suck. Sure he looks cool coming down the ramp in his hoodie, glasses, and "who cares" attitude, but once he actually speaks
(or especially if he wrestles) he's just a ball of boring.
And since people were bitching about the RAW director last week, I couldn't believe that he cut to a replay as R-truth was going for the pinfall
after the Tower of Doom spot. Not that anyone thought that would be the end, but way to suck all suspense away.
Still, that 4-way was pretty awesome and hopefully the beginning of a Miz/Morrison feud.
That 4-way also reinforced my hatred for R-Truth since it proved he can actually do stuff when he tries. The guy has the ability to do an
Osaka-streetcutter and used to hit 450's and other high-flying moves, but now he just coasts through almost every match. He's the new
Carlito.

In fairness to the guy he's also near 40-years-old. So while Carlito might just lazy and unmotivated, Truth might be tired and old.

Zombie Benoit stuff is also down in its own little forum where you could be an offensive asshole and not unwittingly expose anyone to it who maybe
just wanted to talk about RAW. A forum that oddly enough came about because some people were offended by Zombie Benoit. But when you introduce a
risque stand up routine into a busy RAW thread than you're exposing it to a larger and more mixed audience and opening yourself up for criticism
and attacks from people who either don't think its funny or just think its out of place.

One question, that may already have been asked, was Jericho out on the stage with the rest of the locker room at the end?
The world saw the Ultimate Warrior talking to his hand, what they didn't realise is the hand didn't have a clue what it had just heard.

Doesn;t matter, should read thread better. He was there apparently.

Forgot about the Bourne/Jericho match. Glad to see I was wrong and Bourne still getting pushed, but I hated the end of this match.
When Bourne kicked out, I thought it might be getting interesting. I was wrong again and they quickly went to the BS copout DQ ending.
Can anyone explain why Jericho got DQ'd? The ref never even gave him a 5-count before shoving him off of Bourne and then DQ'd him for a
threat? Come on. If they're going to do a BS ending, they should at least do it right and have Jericho earn a legit DQ.

Jericho shoved the ref I thought. Or am I just remembering that incorrectly?
Is everyone mad here?
Of course they are, and you are too... otherwise, you wouldn't have come here.
--MySpace makes me way cool too.

I think so. The ref didn't go for the DQ until Jericho threatened to punch him.
He might have pushed the ref when he was trying to get him off Bourne, but everyone does that.
