It's a term to describe AEW fans, not coined by me, I'm just championing it because it's a great term.

They tried this lame attempt at a counter argument 2 weeks ago. I already replied to the last unoriginal poster who's best comeback was "uhhh I don't think you know what cult means".

Why do I do this to myself? I come into a thread about ratings when I don’t give a shit about the ratings knowing full well that xrod will have been triggered by someone’s obvious attempt at baiting him and the thread descends into a slanging match. Same every week. I need to be better than this.

You dont, you had to look up the definition and then bolded the very small part relating to fandom. This is the problem when you throw around words because you heard somebody else use a term and then you have to scramble around to make it fit your tiresome narrative.

screech 02-07-2021 12:06 PM

xrod proving once again that he doesn't know what words mean, but he'll keep using them to feel smart!

You do realise the entire string of words is the definition and not just the ones that pop out at you? I get language is a tricky thing to learn and you struggle with it greatly but let's break this down.

Using the word "cult" but only acknowledging a small fraction of the word's true meaning, in this case "a group of fans", reduces that word to the point where it no longer carries the same meaning as the original word. You are using the word "cult" when really you mean "group of fans" and you are doing this because of the negative connotations the actual word implies and you are basing this on the vitriol of those who you heard using it.

By your own admission, bolding only a section of the definition, you do not appear to grasp the reasoning behind the use of the word "cult" or it's implications because you feel that it is simply a "great term" to really dunk on those who enjoy AEW. You consistently fail to show any understanding of the term, in addition to to complete miss on grasping the word "irony" and contextual misuse of "naive". Your use of the word cult here should apply to anything with absolutely no consequence. Do you like wrestling? Cultist. Do you prefer boxers or briefs? Cultist. You have a favourite colour? Absolute cult. The application of words is not as simple as spewing them out and hoping people gather your intent.

You are also the same person who will call somebody unoriginal for pointing out the gaping flaws in your use of terminology, while at the same time you admit you only use said terminology because you saw somebody else say it first. I'll give you some time to figure out what you did wrong there. This is your chance to prove you're not just slinging out words you heard somebody else use without the faintest clue what they mean. Go on. We are all waiting, champ.

Cult - a small religious group that is not part of a larger and more accepted religion and that has beliefs regarded by many people as extreme or dangerous. : a situation in which people admire and care about something or someone very much or too much. : a small group of very devoted supporters or fans.

Who argues what words mean this much without even bothering to check before they run their mouth?


Do you see that little : symbol? That means it is the next definition of the word. I did not JUST pick out a few words. 2 of the 3 accepted definitions describe exactly what I said.

How do you not understand how a dictionary works?

You also don't understand math. 2/3rds is the majority, not a "small fraction".

How was that, champ?

screech 02-07-2021 06:45 PM

My favorite part about xrod calling AEW fans "cultists" is that he also watches AEW.

He is the cult.

2/3rds of your unsourced dictionary is clearly the legit measurable source for fractions. Look it up in Oxford or Collins. You do know what those are I take it since you are a dictionary cultist. Feel free to share your findings and then answer all of the other points you quoted and chose to ignore.

How else should I respond to being name called? If the best you can come up with is "I disagree with you, so I'll call you a name", then you won't understand anything I respond with other than "DURP" anyway.

You're totally reaching there and let's be honest that's all you can do at this point as you've shown you cant even grasp how to use words. Those last two definitions dont work in the context you're using. You're saying AEW is popular so it has achieved "cult" status now? So you're actually praising AEW when you refer to it's fans as cultists? You clearly dont even understand what you're reading. I get that youre playing this up because being the worst poster on a forum featuring noid is clearly the best shot you have at getting any attention in your life but at least get some decent material. You're boring. You're a one note character and you dont have the intellectual capacity to play that one note with anything but the same monotonous rhythm. Say something interesting. Say something original.

You can't be this dense. I am being serious, it cannot be possible.

The last two definitions you are referring to have the same meaning, but the dictionary YOU YOURSELF suggested broke down the usage as an adjective and as a singular noun.

"Something very popular among a particular group of people"

AEW is very popular among a particular group of people, who are too stubborn or too stupid to admit everything about AEW is NOT the second coming of Jesus.

There are fans of wrestling that more or less enjoy AEW (such as myself), and then there are "Cultist" who figuratively blow AEW no matter what, and lose their shit when someone else criticizes their love interest.

If AEW closed tomorrow, a fan would say "damn, oh well". A "Cultist" would cry themselves to sleep.

Seriously, how the fuck do you suggest the specific dictionary, then disagree with what that dictionary says? You are some kind of special.

The dictionary is correct. Your comprehension of the information provided to you is not. You are not using the word correctly in this context. Try again. Check definition #1 for reference. That's 25% of the definition by the way. 1/4.

Mr. Nerfect 02-08-2021 08:00 AM

This place sucks so much. Some of you really need to reflect on yourself. Such a gang mentality to try and go after a guy because he doesn’t like AEW and has the audacity to tell you why. Stop being such cunt pickles.

Mr. Nerfect 02-08-2021 08:01 AM

1.45 million people watching wrestling on Wednesday. Hmm, sounds familiar.

I was wondering about this. Silly semantics about definitions aside, where are the cultist posts of people losing their shit? I've tried searching, found none....

Mr. Nerfect 02-08-2021 08:09 AM

There are certainly people who get very silly when you dare criticisize AEW. Look at how some of you are acting towards xrod.

Mr. Nerfect 02-08-2021 08:09 AM

I was told I loved having Vince McMahon’s dick in my mouth because I don’t like AEW.

drave 02-08-2021 08:12 AM

I think the way people are acting toward Xrod is due to his posting the same thing, over and over, without any kinda backing.


All these claims of people who lose their mind about AEW Criticisms on TPWW, but I haven't seen anything that resembles that.


Rather than make his case and prove his point by quoting said posts, he goes out of his way and looks real silly arguing over definitions and memes.

Mr. Nerfect 02-08-2021 08:21 AM

It’s REALLY hard to talk to the people here. Conversation is...dense. I totally get it. It’s more rewarding to troll than make an effort, because people decide they just don’t wanna hear it. And they do get worked up, lol. That’s what the gang mentality is about. It’s to stamp out the unbeliever.

But it’s not just here. People seem to be tuning out and have stopped caring about the product at large, but for a while it was really hard to bring up an objective criticism anywhere. It did happen on TPWW, but it’s not exclusive to that and I don’t get the whole “Where are these people here?” argument. It doesn’t mean they don’t exist or that the double standards for one shitty sports entertainment company and another aren’t frustrating.

Mr. Nerfect 02-08-2021 08:23 AM

xrod was right, and that’s what really shits people off.
