    - nope. i actually like real wrestling. -- nm - Diva Feb 15, 06:02
    - Yeah, but let's be honest; what the best can do to control a crowd is what most entertainers would give up body parts ot attain. - Will Hunting Feb 14, 20:30 2
      - I didn't find The Rock perplexing. It was my fiance's reaction to the whole thing that was...interesting. -- nm - Diva Feb 15, 06:00

        yeah, it's sticky. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 20:28 4
        
        a lot of it depends on if its a student who is known to me, i.e. in my class, or just a random drunk student. - znufrii Feb 14, 20:29 2
        
        honestly, I don't think that matters. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 20:30 1
        
        only so much as it decreases the probability of sh!t hitting the fan, not that it at all mitigates the consequences if it does. -- nm - znufrii Feb 14, 20:34
