loopydate's 2,501st Post / A little bit of everything

[loopydate]

Hey, all. Due to my continuing policy of Casual Isolationism, I've decided to post my "landmark" 2500th thread in the Wrestling Forum. Of course, I just realized that my 2500th post was actually a reply to the Scenes From a Hat thread, so I now bring you...

loopydate's 2501st Post Spectacular!!

Now, honestly, I don't know what to do for my 2501st post spectacular, so I think I'm going to open it up into an "Ask Loopy" sort of forum.

Ask me anything you want about wrestling or not. I'll give you my thoughts on current angles, predictions for characters' futures, and all that good nonsense.

Of course, if you want me to answer questions NOT about wrestling...I could probably do that, too. Like, for example, did you know that loopydate's favorite writer is Aaron Sorkin?

Anyway, fire away.

Oh, and there will probably be rep involved for whoever responds to this thread.

You are the man....

How can I be as awesome as you? :love:
It's an easy 12-step program.

1) Shut yourself off from all contact with the outside world.
2) Become obsessed with movies
3) to the point where you become deluded into thinking you can write them.
4) Have a four-year-long case of writer's block.
5) Maintain an inexplicable love of wrestling for fifteen years,
6) including fond rememberances of Duke "The Dumpster" Droese's impressions at the '96 Slammy Awards.
7) Spend hours using HCTP's Create option to update your rosters,
8) then hours more playing Season Mode to get all your CAWs' attributes up.
9) Tease Loose Cannon for being an Orton mark while keeping your own HBK markdom at a low boil.
10) Forget to do captions for, like, a week,
11) then come back and do them all in a day without stopping to think if they're funny or not.
12) Sleep. A lot.

And you're well on your way to loopydom.

[Jonster]

Well done :y:

So what are your thoughts on the upcoming Mae Young/Jay Leno vs Trish Stratus/Christian feud?

[loopydate]

So what are your thoughts on the upcoming Mae Young/Jay Leno vs Trish Stratus/Christian feud?
Personally, the moment I'm looking forward to is Tyson Tomko powerbombing Kevin Eubanks through his drummer's kit. That guy just annoys me...

You know Leno's got a lot of face heat at the moment, but once Eubanks is neutralized, that's going to cut his pops in half, which I hope Vince takes as an indication that Christian and Trish need to go over here.

It's tempting to give the nod to the greatest late-night host in history and the most beautiful woman in wrestling, simply because it's what every smark wants, but I think a Trish/Xian victory will be better long term. I mean, Mae will ALWAYS be over, no matter how many times she loses. She reminds me of Kane. She can keep losing and losing and losing, and her credibility is just...wow.

Of course, with the rumors of a new Television Title, I wouldn't be surprised to see an Emmy nominee win it right off the bat.

Does anyone else thing that Mae would be a better match with Flair? They have so much in common. Plus, Mae has been around long enough that she can probably remember a time before Evolution.

[Mike the Metal Ed]

What will become of Loose Cannon when Randy Orton jobs the Intercontinental Title?

[Savio]

Am I the greast person on TPWW?

[loopydate]

What will become of Loose Cannon when Randy Orton jobs the Intercontinental Title?
He will diminish and go into the west and remain Loose Cannon.

Or he'll start lobbying for a World Title push.

Whatever.

Not knowing you personally, I can't give a fair answer to that. For all I know you could make many charitable donations and help old ladies across the street without once peeking down their blouse.

However - as a TPWW poster - you're much improved over when you first started here, and I look forward to seeing what else you can come up with.

[Loose Cannon]

Hello and CONGRATS loopy. I was just wondering what of cereal do you think HHH consumes in the morning?

Is that really you in your picture loopy?

[Jonster]

Where did you get your name from loopy?

[loopydate]

Is that really you in your picture loopy?
Yeah, that's me getting ready to go to a friend's wedding. My mom just HAD to take a picture, and I figured "What the hell, I don't have a pic up on TPWW yet."

That's me in all my Michael-Cole-with-charisma glory.

[loopydate]

Where did you get your name from loopy?

It's an anagram of my real name.

Pat Dooley = loopydate

[loopydate]

Dave, Corky, and LC: Your rep IS coming, I just need to spread it around first.

[John la Rock]

congrats brotha

[Corkscrewed]

wow, loopy! You look NOTHING like I imagined. Although if I had know your real name was "Pat" I could have conjured up something similar! :p

[Loose Cannon]

I always picture loopy as the guy in his avatar :shifty:

How come you didn't do a TPWW People?

Also, how come I have to be Vincent? Hell, I'd rather be Stevie Ray. :'(

Oh, and here's my old sig for no reason at all.

So what kind of screenplays do you like to write the most?

[PureHatred]

Why isn't the "l" in loopydate capitalized?

Didn't you get Triple A's memo on all lower case SN's?

[Ferocious]

Loopy just a bit of a brain tickler this one. Lets call it a couple of quiz questions. Highlight the space below each one for the answer

1. How many of each species of animal did moses take onto the ark?
None at all, It was Noah
2. How much soil is there in a hole measuring 2 feet by 3 feet by 4 feet?
There is no soil at all, as it is a hole
3. If a man was to build a house with four north facing exposures and a bear walked past his windo, what colour what said bear be?
If the house had four north facing exposures, it would have to be positioned on the South Pole. thus meaning that the bear would be white.
4. If you walked into a perfectly square room, and a pair of monkeys were sat in each corner, looking at the monkeys in the corner to their left, How many monkeys could say they were looking at other monkeys?
None because Monkeys cannot speak
5. Is it legal for a man to marry his widows sister?
Unlikely as he'd have to be dead to have a widows sister


Enjoy

Once I get my post count up enough to something memorable, I might throw me one of these little shindigs. Probably not, though, since it's already been done now, and I don't want to look like I'm just copying off of you.

Anyways, Loopy, what's the secret ingredient in KFC's extra-crispy recipe?

[Wondermouse]

West Wing or Sports Night?

Where do you see Eddie in 2 years from now?

Congrats I suppose on the 2.5K milestone.

HAPPY 3,000th POST, NOWHERE MAN!!!!!!!

I love stealing the spotlight.

Depends on who you ask. Since I'm the only one who can make a qualified statement (:(), yes. Yes, I am.

I strongly considered doing a TPWW People, but eveyone always leaves someone important off their list (quite often, me), and I wanted this thread to be about love (...for me, mostly).

And as for why you're Vincent? Funky, you know you're the man, and you're practically one of us here in the first "W," so I assigned you to someone who's barely memorable as an nWoite, so you could just slip off the edge and join us.

[loopydate]

That's cool.

So what kind of screenplays do you like to write the most?
ATM, I'm working on a couple.

First, I'm getting some "spec scripts" for TV written so that I can shop them around, trying to get an agent/lawyer/whatever so I'll have some kind of contact in Cali when I move there.

I'm also polishing an adaptation of 1984 I started a while back. The first draft is done, but it was too long, so now I'm trimming and improving as I go.

I'm working on a horror/comedy to shoot with my friends (a sequel of sorts to a movie we made two years ago).

And, finally, I'm kicking around starting a script about wrestling. Not a "Ready to Rumble" type, a serious drama about what happens behind the curtain. I had written most of one two years ago, but then got sidetracked on other things and shelved it.

As for what I like most? I'm not sure. I guess whichever I finish first. ;)

[loopydate]

Why isn't the "l" in loopydate capitalized?

Didn't you get Triple A's memo on all lower case SN's?
Honestly, I have no idea. I've just always written it in lowercase. I figure, I'm like da_king, but without a "da" or an underscore.

And as for the memo? I'm an NBT, baby! I buck authority at every turn!

I only got two of them. And I thought I was smart. :'(

[Azriel]

Congrats on your milestone loopy. You, sir, rock.

[loopydate]

West Wing or Sports Night?
Sports Night.

There have been a couple of "WW" episodes that rank ahead of some of the better "SN"s ("Noel," "Isaac & Ishmael," "In Excelsis Deo"), but overall I love "Sports Night" more than any show that's ever been produced. It was watching "Night" that made me decide that I wanted to be a writer.

[Oxstar]

Well done my son

[loopydate]

Where do you see Eddie in 2 years from now?

Congrats I suppose on the 2.5K milestone.
Honest Answer
Eddie will probably turn heel-face-heel-face in the next two years, but the fans will always have a hard time booing him. There are two possible ways he can turn out:

1) WWE decides to stop throwing mid-carders at him and gives him feuds with Booker T, Rob Van Dam, and a healthy Kurt Angle. Five-star matches abound and Eddie cements his spot as one of the greatest of all-time.

2) Things continue on their current course, he wins his feud with JBL, jobs the title to someone like Undertaker, and fades into the midcard just like he was a couple of years ago.

If he can stay healthy and WWE goes with idea #1, Eddie could very well still be sitting on top of the industry two years from now.

Meh. It's okay. I think I was just about ready to relinquish it anyw--:lol:

Ah, I couldn't get through that with a straight face.

Congrats to you, though. Why must you thwart me at every turn?!?

[Wondermouse]

Sports Night.

There have been a couple of "WW" episodes that rank ahead of some of the better "SN"s ("Noel," "Isaac & Ishmael," "In Excelsis Deo"), but overall I love "Sports Night" more than any show that's ever been produced. It was watching "Night" that made me decide that I wanted to be a writer. Thank you, Sports Night was just such a fresh and new series that they had to cancel it.

I think getting canceled should be a mark of pride for shows like this.

and, which WWE wrestler would you like to take on in a real fight and kick his ass?

Ideally, I'm laying back in my little house in Santa Barbara, enjoying the view while I'm taking a break after finishing my latest script. My wife and kid come out onto the deck with me, and it's all good.

Probably, I'm still in Midland, Michigan, working at the movie theater or Blockbuster or something, still pulling my hair out 'cause I can't figure out how to finish this damned story.

I'd really like to kick the crap out of Hardcore Holly, but I know in a real fight he'd destroy me. All-time, it would be Austin, but if we're only counting active WWE wrestlers (and I never thought I'd use the words "active" and "Hardcore Holly" in the same sentence), it's Hardcore Holly. He's way too smug for someone who hasn't accomplished jack shit.

[Corkscrewed]

I always figured you were sort of skinny, had dark hair and a goatee, and no glasses. And white, but with sorta tan skin.

Wait a moment, isn't that what Triple A looks like? :shifty:
