Mice ate through my second Ethernet cable in less than two months. When I bought my replacement cable I also bought 10ft of plastic tubing to run the cable through. Hopefully this protects it because they aren’t touching the poison I put out. Had a mice problem the other day. Bought me a couple of old school mouse traps, put some spam on it and got them all dead. |

I visited a girl who had stored old clothes she was planning to donate to the Salvation Army for months. Needless to say, she kept the garbage bags
in her basement - where a moth nest eventually took over; thus resulting in an infestation that looked like something out of The Prince of Darkness
every time I stopped by.
Alice Cooper would have been proud.

Looking for a place to backup all of my scans, I started submitting Pro-Wrestling guidebooks and OST's to the Internet Archive.
without warning, they took down 27 of my uploads, and locked my account.
Whatever. Life goes on.
Nevertheless, I'll still be sharing content with everyone here.

When you go to a park for peace & quiet, but remember it's a 'public park', which means there's a chance you'll run into the general public
who bring along their PA systems to blast music throughout said park.
There's peace and quiet, and then there's noise cancelling headphones. Sigh.

The first sign that you're getting older (besides a few greys in your beard) is realizing how harder it is to keep the weight off.
As time flies by, weight gain just has a propensity of sneaking up on you.
Anyways, I've been working out every day to try and get the weight off again. Also eating a lot better, too.

Cutting out junk food has been really good as far as maintaining and getting back to the point I was several years ago. But improvement is slow going.

I have a gripe about new edits on Fire Pro World.
I want to run matches with contemporary wrestlers, but it seems that to download a modern wrestler, I have to download 50 custom parts and moves.
Sensation0730 is too lazy to list the parts one needs to download.
I wanted to get Bozilla, Hanahime8787 has 57 parts to download.
It is ridiculous.
I love paimrino7 though. His stuff is solid with logic, and doesn't require all that work.
I may just use FPR for my e-fed and stay there from now on...

I agree it's a disappointing trend that almost all intersting new edits have too many custom moves or parts it's out of hand (some even that you saying 50 isn't really an exaggeration). It's such a a problem that everyone talks about how they're game has trouble running these days because of having too many subscriptions.
I rarely add edits these because of this even though the creators I respect make edits I really like but they have way too many custom things to add.
The thing is if you are gonna rely on others creations your gonna have to deal with except maybe add old versions of edits and update them yourself.
Personally when it comes to real wrestlers I stopped subscribing to the edits and just use the old versions because I only care about having a few up to date and I still almost never use real wrestlers. I just get bummed when someone makes a new original edit that has a bunch of custom stuff because I don't want to manage all the custom stuff I have added. I have original edits I'm big fans of that I will keep updated even though they have a bunch of custom stuff. And others I like enough to unsubscribe that I still have a version I can use even though the current one uses a bunch of custom stuff.

I’m happy to see it’s not just me that’s put off by the trend of drowning in customization parts and moves, the game is unplayable as far as I’m concerned. Every time I get excited about trying it again, I turn it on, and almost immediately switch it off. It’s odd that having the ultimate level of customization has almost made this otherwise amazing game practically inaccessible unless you’re ready to make your own edits or contend with the sad NJPW and generic roster packed into the game.
I haven’t managed to complete even one edit so far (doing it on a console probably doesn’t help that issue), three edit suite is too intimidating /overwhelming for me now. I don’t have the time and/or attention span to deal with this stuff anymore. I miss turning on FPD for the first time, doing a bunch of name changes, and bang, instant international pro wrestling and MMA playground!
I’m concerned for Ultra Pro Wrestling in this respect, I hope they don’t lose the plot worrying about customization crap and unnecessary match types (thumbtacks…. Why?!). People STILL love the original AKI games, and there’s barely any match types or customization! Stick to the gameplay!!!

Yeah, I think I am gonna run NJPW and AJPW with what I have with FPWW, get rid of SWA and use B<ME with created edits.
Then in FPR, run the Wrestle Universe model with default wrestlers and enjoy the old school vibes.
How will I find time? Easy, I sim while watching TV.
Glad to know I am in good company with my frustration.

PS5 Pro just announced, although without a disc drive. It sucks but at least I can buy an external, which I am preemptively trying to do along with a stick of SSD memory to put in the expansion bay. Make that payout in November hurt a little less if I pick up this stuff beforehand. It seems like the external drives are sold out everywhere in Canada. Gamestop sold out, Amazon.ca sold out, Walmart sold out, Best Buy sold out. 
The worst part is they were in stock on Amazon a week ago and I almost bought one but wanted to wait and see if the Pro was going to have a disc version or not.
