smark or mark

[Aussie Skier]

I would do this as a poll, but alas, I am unaware of how you do it :p


anywayz, just wondering, who out there considers themselves a smark and who considers themselves a mark?

I guess loose definitions:
Mark:
watches wrestling for the wrestling, not to be critical,
cares not about (preferably does not know about) backstage politics,

Smark:
Always looking at ways to improve wrestling,
Discusses what angles and the like should be pursued,
watches wrestling to see how good the product is, rather than watching wrestling to enjoy the show.




I'm a mark, well and truly!

any1 else....

[Mister Sinister]

I'm A Mark...except for the not knowing about the backstage crap...

[Funky Fly]

I am a smark, but I watch wrestling for the wrestling.

[Innovator]

I'm smark, but when I watch a show I watch it for wrestling, like Funky...afterwards I'll bitch about what I hated and everything

[KayfabeMan]

I'm a worker, which means I'm a mark on the inside of the business. :)

Deep down inside, EVERYONE is a mark.

[Innovator]

you become a mark the minute you go to a live event

[Funky Fly]

you become a mark the minute you go to a live event
I watched wrestling for more than 10 years before I went to my first live event. Pretty sure I was a mark before then.

[Innovator]

I mean in the sense that even though you're a smark, you'll be a mark when you go to a live event.

[Aussie Skier]

agree with flunky fly.

i think your a mark b4 you go to a live show.
if anything, ur a smark after going to a live show, cos you may see heels talking to faces and that.

i'm a mark, always will be, i dont' care about using my own methods of improving the business, if i knw how to do that, i'd be the billionare, not vince, although i will get mad at stupid storylines since it's obviously fake, but i have a right to do that, it's just like saying an episode of the simpsons sucked

[LK]

I think I am a smark but I do watvh wrestling to be entertained.

[Volchok]

im a smark but deep down im a mark...

[Dave Youell]

I'm a worker, which means I'm a mark on the inside of the business. :)

Deep down inside, EVERYONE is a mark.
:y:

That statement says it all

[SuperSlim]

smark that watches it for what it is

[Xero]

I am a smark, but I watch wrestling for the wrestling.
:wave:

[Gone Mad]

As Brian Pillman would say: "Smmmarrtt markkk".. but as Kayfabe man and Funky had said, everyone one is a mark inside.

I am a smark on the outside since now the show is not at its best. But from the time when I started watching as a kid to the current moments with Jericho/ Xtian/ hbk, I am a mark. Even as a smark, you want something good to happen to Mark out like you used to.

And yes, you are a mark before you go to a live show. Why else would you wanna see the show live? You want to feel the energy you felt when you were younger.

[Loose Cannon]

I can be labeled a smark because I have knowledge of what goes on inside the business, but I'm a mark all the way.

[Loose Cannon]

What's a Smart Mark? A Mark with a High IQ.

[Evolution]

I guess I'm a Smark in the same sense as gonMad00. I think the last time I marked out was when I thought HBK won the World Title on RAW, only to find out Triple H had started the pin first.

[tucsonspeed6]

By your deffinition of "mark" I am DEFFINATELY a mark. I may know all about the business, and I can predict with pretty good accuracy what the writers are thinking and what will happen in the story lines, but everyone who knows me around here knows that I can't stand it when people bitch and moan about "oh, wrestling is ruined! I'm never gonna watch it ever again!" When I see a really bad episode of Raw, I say to my friends "Damn, that one sucked." and leave it at that.

[Disturbed316]

Who is this "Mark" person?
