People in the comments say it’s Portuguese Portuguese is always a really weird language for me. Like I can honestly identify most European languages pretty easily when I hear them but Portuguese always throws me for a loop. It’s very close to other Romance languages but the pronunciation is all kinds of weird and kinda makes it sound Slavic, but also not Slavic enough to be that? Edit: I mean it obviously isn’t, but that’s where my mind goes first when I hear it. a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 16:25 on Aug 5, 2020 |

In high school my friend Brian thought he wouldn't have to study Spanish because he spoke Portuguese and he of course failed.

I guess it’s kinda like Dutch or Danish if you know German/Swedish/Norwegian etc. Pretty readable but holy poo poo the spoken language is in a different fuckin dimension

https://twitter.com/bryanalvarez/status/1291070548483571712 Interesting tease from Alvarez, wonder who he'll have one. One is probably Rocky, KENTA doesn't really have anything to do in Swamp-Corona-Land, and maybe one of the YL's from the LA Dojo. Or maybe a surprise interview with the Skipper to discuss why the hell he's feuding with Yujiro.

quote:Ibushi: I think I could hit 200, actually. There’s really unlimited potential in human beings. I mean, a lot of people die in their 80s, but these days 100 isn’t all that out of the ordinary. 120 is just about the record, right? I think taking all I can do into account, I live with the intention of making it to 150. amazing

Kota Ibushi giving relationship advice and saying he thinks he's going to live to be 200. https://twitter.com/njpwglobal/status/1291275314031517696 quote:Ibushi: Every now and then I think about what’ll happen to me when I die. The key thing is though, it’s gonna happen to everyone. None of us can avoid it. How you accept that fact is the key point. I think it’s important to accept it could be tomorrow, or it could be in 100 years, and all you can do is live the life you have to the best of your ability and have fun doing it.

Daylight savings always screws me up because in my lifetime it was only used here for four years a decade ago. Can I please get some confirmation that BST is GMT+1 so I can figure out when the show starts for me? Near certain it is but i'm second guessing myself. Either way i'm looking forward to GoD in singles, and hopefully Cobb gets to hoss a man around.

This is one of things where if you can do it and if you can get a good location and you have the funds it seems a solid idea. Finding somewhere affordable, close to transport links and big enough to build an arena seems an ask though.
