Lost in all the Hulk Hogans, Stone Colds, and The Rocks, is the greatest wrestling character of all time. Roddy Piper. He was a smart ass and as a heel still had you rooting for him. His bigotry hysterical, his one liners epic, his on/off switch predictably awesome. I'll never forget him busting Jimmy Snuka upside the head with a coconut. 7 different layers of greatness.
Fuck yea. Crazy how movies from my early 20's that I loved and were profoundly impacted by were almost warnings at the same time. It's like all the cultural works of art that impacted me the most were shit like this. I finally bought it today, took a fat dab and felt like I was 22 again watching it for the first time and remembered how different things were when I saw it. Like other people have said here, it's almost like the people making this world "clown world" are doing it on purpose at this point just to trigger us into doing something stupid. I'm just glad this site exists because for the past 5-6 years reddit has changed massively, just like Digg changed, just like video games changed and movies and culture and politics, and I could go on and on and on. They have all changed, but in an unfortunately predictable (in a bad way) fashion. Change isn't bad, but this is like being in the back of a roller coaster visually seeing where it's gonna drop but having to wait until the front goes down first.
