Reminds me of an old joke.
"I told my mate I got my dick stuck in a bottle of shampoo. He said that it was nothing to be ashamed of. I then told him it was a hotel shampoo bottle"

@antipodean Don't start propagating that myth that childbirth is so bloody painful. No woman has ever experienced the pain of a kick in the nuts and is is easily provable that this is worse. Much worse.
I have been kicked in the ads before and you know what, I never thought "hmmm maybe I'll do that again".

good one to be able to walk away from!

@Tim Above the Law was on TV last night. Steven was the baddest of the 80s action stars. Not as big as Dolph, didn't have Arnie's muscles, but if there was an 80s action star all-in, Steven's where the money goes.
Watching him break some mook's arm is a movie pleasure. And he's the master of the double death.

Yeah but those blokes plus Sly and JCVD ( and as if I need to mention Chuck ) stayed in shape. He's just a massive joke of a fat fluffybunny now and still behind them at his peak. Dolph, JCVD and Chuck would have made fucken mincemeat of him in a real life scrap too.
Decent blues guitarist though.

His tip tap shit wouldn't seem to be effective against a real fighter

sadly he has become a bit of a sideshow really, but I guess he gets paid to act up for the crowd now.
An unfulfilled talent I would say, had he had the work ethic of say Tiger at his peak....

Are you talking about John Daly or Stephen Seagal? Please be more clear.

ESPN 30 for 30 did a doco on him which was sad but interesting. He had so much talent but could never cope with the demands of fame

This story gets more and more funny to watch from the sidelines. Talk about doing nearly everything you can to make a bad situation worse.
For those that haven't followed it goes like this.
- United Airlines usual arrogant incompetence means they demand that 4 passengers disembark a flight after they are seated to accommodate some flight crew that they need to transport.
- 3 of them go reluctantly but one (who is a bit of a dick anyway) refuse to budge
- the airport security (mall cops) are brought on board and they roughly remove the guy, bashing his face against an armrest and dragging him by the arms along the aisle
- of course this was all filmed by other passengers and uploaded to social media where it spread like wildfire as bad publicity
- United's CEO makes it worse by making a statement placing all blame on the passenger and then praises his staff (which of course gets leaked)
- this just adds massive fuel to the public fire and $1B is wiped off the share value (that's one expensive email)
- Warren Buffett alone is reported to have lost $23M ($91M and the low point in trading)
The funny thing is that smaller incidents like this have been going on with United for years and instead of improving their own procedures, policies and training have always acted the bully. This has finally come back to bite them bigtime.
Yes, all airlines occasionally have to deal with overbooking or booking stuff ups but United is the only airline I have ever experienced where the 'sorting out' happens after all the seats are occupied and passengers are ready to go.
