Heh, Jon'd probably be better suited for this, but he's not here so fuck him (but if you're reading this Jon, not really).

It's just something he came up with to distill any heated drama, really.

Poster #1 I hate you. I hope the war goes on forever and you get drafted.
Poster #2 Yeah? Well you're a douchebag and I had sex with your wife!
Poster #2 The freewheeling Tom Cruise!
Posters #1 and 2 Awwww. He's so dreany!

No, it's much more than that.

There was a guy named Mickey who wrote terribly for Whatever-Dude.com, and he loved Nicole Kidman. So much so that he devoted an entire article to what a catty bitch Penelope Cruz was for shacking up with Tom (Cruise).

Cruise and Cruz were in "Vanilla Sky" together. Since the director Cameron Crowe is more interested these days in telling us what's on his iPod than in making a good movie, Vanilla Sky is full of old music references including a shot taken directly from the album cover of Bob Dylan's album "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan."



In the article, Mickey posts THIS picture,



which isn't even right, with the caption "The Freewheeling Tom Cruise" under it. Yes, with the G on the end.

Since Mickey is the shittiest writer in the history of the Internet this shining example of his lameness became an in-joke any time we needed to describe Tom Cruise or insert a random line of dialogue from something. It serves the same general purpose as "LOTS OF LUCK PAL, SHE'S EVIL!," another hilariously terrible line from the post, between us.

The entire original article from Mickey can be found archived on "Things That Are Old Or Had Happened In The Past."

Oh, that explains https://www.progressiveboink.com/archive/retro/mickey1.htm

I wondered what was up with that article. And now I understand, which of course makes it even better.

I just remember coming across that and being like "What the hell, there is nothing in this article about George W. Bush or Hulk Hogan!"

Mickey was worse than fouff. Fouff at least knew when to keep things short & sweet.

And about drugs.

That was kind of what made me realize that that majority of the praise I got about my writing from that forum was kind of worthless. They liked my article, and they turn around and equally liked an article that was seriously nothing other than a bunch of pictures of Fouff in drag.

Roderick Strong, holder of one of the gayest ring names in history, is an independent wrestler for organizations like NWA TNA and Ring of Honor. He's kinda small, smooth like a giant penis, and is generally the blandest motherfucker alive. But since he wrestles for independent promotions, everyone who follows said independent promotions LOVES HIM. One of those things. "RODERICK STRONG THAS MY BOY."

Anyway, his schtick is that he is "The Messiah of the Backbreakers." He does backbreakers ALL THE FUCKING TIME. Just CONSTANTLY. As his career goes on they become all the more convoluted and unnecessarily complex. He's like the fucking Rube Goldberg of backbreakers. If a guy is running at him and Strong Rod should just clothesline him or kick him or something, he'll instead lift the runner into the air, spin around backwards, flip the man 3 times in the air, and bring him down with a backbreaker across the inside of his own thigh or something. It's retarded. But people love it.

So yeah, that should explain the joke.

Sadly, I'm not able to access the new Batista era. Strong's gotten loads better in the past year, but he's been working matches against the likes of Danielson, Punk, Gibson, Joe, and the CROWN JEWEL OF THE EMBASSY all year, so basically I could work programs with those guys and be ROH's MVP, too.

Exactly. The quality of Strong's work is directly related to the quality of his opponent. I can't wait to see him face Abyss at some point!

Always good to find fellow Strong-bashers. I've seen him live three times, and he's never ceased to be meh. But he's suddenly an Indy darling, and I have no idea why. He's a good wrestler, but that's all he is. Good. I saw him face AJ Styles on Impact and had no idea it was him until Tenay mentioned that Messiah Of The Backbreaker nickname.

I'll be seeing him on 12/3 in Manhattan, and he should be more interesting then. But that's mainly cuz he's involved in a War Games type thing. I figure if anything can give him some color, it'll be a War Games cage.
