I'm pretty sure my dad is gonna watch this tonight while I watch Bake-Off lol.
Place your random thoughts.

I really hope Mike Tyson holds up here. If he's any semblance of his old self tonight then he should be okay. (although the rounds are only 2 mins each and 14oz gloves are being used to reduce the chance of a KO). Which makes me feel this is set to give Jake Paul a decision or end this in a draw.
I follow combat sports as a main interest. The decline of an athlete in this field is usually seen at 35. This is considered the cut off age of an MMA fighter becoming a champion. (although it can happen past that, it's very rare). Anything past 40 is considered ancient. Some places cut off boxers at 40 as they are considered high risk and a liability. Tyson is 58.
If there's nothing sketchy about this, then it's either Mike Tyson (a pro boxer) dismantling a trained roided up celebrity influencer. Or his body just acts like an old man and we watch Jake Paul uncomfortably beat up a senior citizen. As he becomes the most hated man in sports.
I hope this isn't a Chuck Liddell situation. A terrifying monster of early UFC who got back in the cage to fight when he was older. He almost couldn't defend himself anymore and looked like an old man plucked from the audience.
Oh yeah, that reminds me, I remember what I said on my lights last year. It was so cringe. It made me a little glad that they get deleted in January.

Last year, I sent an equal amount of Christmas lights to members based on what team they were in Camp TBT 2023 (9 Galaxolotls, 9 Actually Neverminders, 9 Space Whales, and 9 Moon Bunnies), as well as 4 extra Christmas lights to others. But this year, since it’s been quite a while, your membership on the Space Camp teams (such as the Galaxolotls) and World Championship teams (such as the Yoshi’s Islanders) are now meaningless. I can’t use that as a factor.Oh yeah, that reminds me, I remember what I said on my lights last year. It was so cringe. It made me a little glad that they get deleted in January.
I’m also putting some thought into who to give lights to. For some reason it’s hard for me to think of who the people on this site that definitely consider us friends are. I’m sure of at least 10 people right now. I used to (by “used to” I mean like, up until a few months ago) think it was way more than it actually is so I’m trying to be careful, because… I mean, it would also be kind of cringe if I thought I was friends with someone but I actually wasn’t.
This year, I’ll send them to those who were closer friends to me. Most I’ll send is 20.

Why is Die Hard considered a Christmas movie??

I think because it starts during a Christmas party? Idk I’ve never seen it, but that’s what l know.
I'm sad that the second half of my statement was the one that came true.
Mike Tyson had the same issue many older guys in combat sports do. They freeze in place. I'm guessing reflexes just don't keep up at a certain point and the answer is to reflectively shell up.
It was uncomfortable and deflating to watch. I only did it because my family was excited for it. Not looking forward to Jake Paul bragging about his decision win over an old man who didn't have much left.

Had I been born a century earlier (1903), I'd be a part of The Greatest Generation (1901-1927).
I saw this as a little kid in a horror movie and it made me hate Alvin and the Chipmunks. (the chipmunks start eating and killing the main characters).
It's called The Disaster Movie and it sucks. Looking back now I could totally understand why I was scared. Although the movie is a joke. Look at these wonderful reviews.

I saw a tweet from last night that watching the Tyson/Paul fight was like watching the election.

Well,there is an actual Christmas tree in Die Hard.I found this pic on the left featuring all the cast members that played the evil mercenaries that took over the Nakatomi building in the movie and somebody turned it into a very nice Christmas greeting.If you squint really hard you can see the Christmas theme in the movie.John McClane(Bruce Willis) is Santa Claus but instead of trying to deliver toys to the children of the world he's trying to deliver as many live hostages as he can while the forces of evil led by Hans Gruber(Alan Rickman) try to stop McClane from carrying out his appointed task.Very similar to the plot of Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer where the elements and the Bumble Snow Monster try to stop Santa from delivering his toys.I think drinking a lot of spiked eggnog while watching Die Hard helps to visualize that underlying Christmas theme.
