Gawker is Macho Man’s replacement

LOL: Hulk Hogan suing Gawker; again

“The Macho Man” Randy Savage (RIP) was a lot of things throughout his life; professional baseball player, professional wrestler, professional rapper, among other accolades.  However, one of the less glamorous titles in his life, was Hulk Hogan’s bitch.

I don’t say this with any disrespect either, because I loved the Macho Man.  But there’s really no other way to describe the fact that no matter where Macho Man went, he was always, always the second fiddle to Hulk Hogan.  Throughout his wrestling career, not only did Macho Man almost never defeat Hogan,* Macho Man won six world championships between the WWF and WCW; only to lose three of them to Hulk Hogan.  With the last two in WCW, not even getting to hold the belt for more than 24 hours each time, before dropping it to Hogan the night after winning them.

*honestly, I can’t recall a single instance where Macho pinned Hogan, cleanly

Even as a rapper, the one track that most people typically remember is the titular track Be A Man, where the chorus of the entire song is “Be a man, Hogan,” where Macho Man is repeatedly calling out Hulk Hogan in rhyme, but the point is clear that even long after their wrestling careers, Hogan was still implanted firmly in Macho’s butthole.

When “owned” just doesn’t cut it

To add insult to injury: Jurors who recently awarded a $115 million dollar verdict in favor of Hulk Hogan have declared an additional $25 million dollars owed to the Hulkster in punitive damages, bringing the total of money owed to Hogan for posting his sex tape to a whopping $140 million dollars.

I ran out of words to express how delighted I was to have seen Hulk Hogan take down Gawker in court three days ago. Yet it’s becoming the gift that keeps on giving, as Gawker is deservedly kicked while already down, for another $25 million dollars thanks to their reckless “journalism” and arrogant believe they were invincible behind First Amendment rights.

Owned” simply isn’t a sufficient term to describe just how dominating of a comeuppance beatdown Gawker was just given by Hulkamania. I want to force phrases like “Hulk hOwgan’d” or some shit, but know there’s no chance in hell it would stick. Unless another marquee lawsuit springs up featuring a fairly prominent figure versus a smarmy hack journalism outlet where the plaintiff succeeds, and people start using Hulk Hogan-ing as a verb to describe defeating crooked journalists, that is.

AS IF THERE WERE ANY DOUBT

Get owned, Gawker – Floridalol jury awards Terry “‘The Immortal’ Hulk HoganBollea a $115 million dollar verdict against snarky website, Gawker, for violation of privacy, when they posted a sex tape of Hulk Hogan back in 2012.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Oh, I can’t get enough of this story.  I mean, it was about as much of a layup as they come, but it still excites me to see the conclusion to this lawsuit that was forgone three years ago, but still had to be played out.

So owned

I enjoyed this too much: woman tailgates motorist, motorist taps brakes to try and get tailgater to back off, tailgater instead slams their own brakes, loses control, and spins out into the median.

Bonus:

The Fox Valley Metro Police Department told the paper that she was cited.

Bitch didn’t only get what she deserved for being an aggressive tailgater, she also got her well-deserved citation.

Hogan v. Gawker lols

I think these guys don’t seem to grasp the notion that they’re in court in the state of Florida.

This is a state that can’t seem to do anything right, the craziest people on the planet originate from, is home to places as vapid and superficial as Miami yet house the vast majority of the United States’ senior citizen populace, and least of all, understand the difference between sarcasm and the literal.

When Floridians hear a snarky remark about how age-4 is the bar in which it’s okay to show sex tapes of anyone olderthey just might take it seriously and believe it.

Well I know who I’m rooting for

Long story short: Gawker Media prepares for lawsuit that could very well take down the entire media conglomerate.  Their opponent?  Hulk Hogan, who is suing them for publishing a supercut of a Hulk Hogan sex tape and refusing to take it down.

Hogan v. Gawker.

Man, this story just writes itself.  This is already better than Mayweather vs. Pacquiao.

It’s no secret that I don’t really care much for Gawker, or their network of sites, despite the fact that I admit to looking at stuff on Kotaku, Deadspin and Jalopnik every now and then; let’s be real here, they’re for the most part work-safe, and their network of writers are somewhat efficient at finding interesting stories to give little credit to the original sources.

What are the point of rules?

Do not enter.  One way.  No left turn.  No U-turn.

Without any hyperbole, I can confidently say that every single time I hop into my car, I watch another driver violate one or more of these laws, and get away with it scot-free.  I ask myself if I could get away with it, and convince myself that I would be the one who gets caught for attempting such blatant disregard for posted laws.  And before I can decide to be a rebel and break the seemingly-inconsequential of inconsequential laws, I’m already headed in the correct, legal direction instead.

Even in Midtown, near where I work, where it’s a veritable maze of detours, where arriving at point B, a block away from point A requires four blocks of driving to circle around closed streets, using detours and congested paths rampant with stupid Georgia Tech students, I opt to take the legal route, because I like to believe that I’m somewhat of a paragon.  Meanwhile, I pull into the parking lot only to witness numerous cars ignore the signs that state DO NOT ENTER and DETOUR and come the route they want to use, and get away with it without any reprimand.
