      Jim Cornette is a pro-wrestling personality who’s known for his fast loud mouth on-air.

      He’s also known as being hard to get along with by most people.

      So in the 1980s, when he was first becoming nationally well known, he would have bickering arguements with his coworkers. He made a list of people he didn’t like.

      Then in the 1990s, he worked with a guy named Vince Russo, who he still to this day HAAAAAATES. He’s quoted as saying “Spite is a hell of a motivator, and it’s the reason I’m going to live one day longer than Vince Russo. Just so I can piss on his grave.”

      So after dealing with Vince Russo, the WWF hired someone he worked with years earlier, and found he wasn’t as mad at him as he once was.

      He was quoted as saying “You used to be much higher on my shitlist, but you’ve moved down a few spots simply by not doing anything differently!”

      I’ve always taken that last quote to be an interesting take on perspective. How things can be exactly the same, but your perspective may shift with experience.

      With all that said, I see this picture, of something that is being called “Pizza”, and I realize that pineapple on pizza isn’t the abomination to the form of pizza that I once percieved it as.

      I like how every time I see this identical picture it’s cropped slightly smaller so people can claim it’s a unique image

          I’m not from the US, so pardon my ignorance. But holy shit, this place looks depressing as fuck. I don’t know if it’s the concrete jungle or the lack of walkability, but it just looks sad

            It’s the barren concrete taking up 3/4 of the view with a hint of lawn behind more concrete. Europe was built before modern vehicles and has narrower streets with more residential in between businesses and has some cobblestone and what not. USA was built around railways and highways so everyone has a car and walking was an afterthought.

            Edit: additionally ever wonder why Europeans say how far a distance is in kilometers and Americans answer with “it’s about 25 minutes”? It’s partially that reason plus the physical distance is larger (some states are larger than countries) so miles mean less to us than knowing the time, post logistics.

            I’m not sure “radioactive orange no-name fake square slices of oil solidified” constitutes cheese 🤔

              I mean yeah, I missed out that the “cheese” is plastic, but I thought the burnt bits pointed that out by getting you to pay attention to that.

              This fucking place is a disaster, they didn’t deserve my boy Luigi 😢
