I don't know how to feel about this one, but it does complete the "celebrities die in 3's" trifecta.

But as far as Hogan is concerned, as a kid I loved him. As I grew up it became more of a nostalgia thing when I would see him on TV now and then, when I stopped watching wrestling because it is just fake and stupid, and then as I grew to know his political thoughts, that he endorsed Trump especially, and probably racist predilections, I grew to actively dislike the guy. Won't say hate. With some pity mixed in as he got caught up in so much stupid ****, I guess like most celebs. So it is a weird mix of "aww, that's sad, I remember him and Andre the Giant wrestling on TV" and "who gives a ****, at least if removes another backward thinking troglodyte". Good...riddance? Goodbye? Let's just say, goodbye.

Great post.

By the way, its very strange to me that adults watch WWE. Just not for me I guess. I have good friends who are big WWE fans and I just cant understand it.

I didn't even like it when I was in my early teens. Never understood the appeal and absolutely can't understand how it survived past the 90s. It has such an 80s feel to it but maybe that's just because that's when I discovered it?

Same. I imagine in plenty ways I'm stuck in my teenage years. Most of us are to some extent. But to be stuck there through WWE just feels weird and juvenile on another level.
