A collection of random things

Edit: Um, WTF. LJ won't let me post this. "Client error: Sorry, there is a problem with content of your entry: spam patterns were detected". Seriously? I've been a paid member for more than ten years, and you suddenly think I'm spamming? I'm going to cut out piece by piece and see what is setting that off...

My friends list was full of interesting stuff today!

wow_hazmat posted something I was certain I wouldn't enjoy, but ended up loving: Wrestling Isn't Wrestling. A video explaining all the positives of professional wrestling done in a highly amusing and entertaining way. The video is nearly a half-hour long, and I wish it were many times longer. Give it a try, if you're like me, you'll be hooked in the first moments and will grin through the whole thing. (This coming from someone who has not watched professional wrestling since the 80s.)

hamsterwoman posted a link to Google Feud: "like Family Feud with Google Autocomplete answers". It's surprisingly hard and often quite amusing!

Okay, this is the part that LJ thinks is spam. I'll post it without the link, just copy/paste it. /// Okay, or not. LJ doesn't like that URL at all. If you care to see the story, remove the spaces from the domain name when you copy/paste.

And lastly, from non-LJ sources: Disney Making Live-Action ‘Winnie The Pooh’ Film - http://dea dl ine.com/2015/04/winnie-the-pooh-disney-live-action-feature-alex-ross-perry-1201392427/

I thought it was just me and my work computer. I got that line from LJ at least 10 times today!

Wow. That's a real problem then. I never saw it before today... Ugh, LJ, ugh!

It sounds like Disney is remaking all of their classic animated movies into live action. New money for old rope, I guess? Maybe they need the money..? It will be interesting to see what it looks like, though. I did enjoy the 101 Dalmation films.

Wow, thank you for the Wrestling Isn't Wrestling link. That's a great video!

And heh...Triple H as a B+ player. That's quite a burn. (That's what he called Daniel Bryan at one point, I think... Wrestling is a bit of guilty pleasure for me.)

Hahah, that Google Feud thing. "Is my cat..." was probably the easiest one I got, and it turns out the two dumbest endings I could think of were correct!




Also, if LJ is stubborn about allowing you to post a link in the future, a URL shortening service like Goo.gl or Bitly might let you bypass it.

New "easy" way to make money, I guess. I can't see them being short on cash though!

Welcome! I've watched it three times now, and I'm about to watch it again. It's a really well done video, WWE should pay them to make more for them.

Hahah I could totally see someone trying to google to find out if their cat is gay...

And good idea! If this happens again, I'll try to use one of those.
