The cheese is old and moldy. Where is the bathroom?

About Me

My name is Ryan. I'm short. I love to sleep for long amounts of time. I've lived in the same house for 21 years. I've been drug/alcohol/smoke free for my whole life and see no point in starting now. Do you like cats? Good, because I have 4 of them. I'm a vegetarian, but I don't really like vegetables. I never leave the house without a hat. I have a girlfriend named Shasta, she's greaterthan. My DVD collection would eat your's for breakfast. I own about 30 mexican and japanese wrestling masks. I like making people laugh and it's important to me that people to have a good sense of humor. I loooove cheese pizza and breadsticks. I wear the same types of clothes all the time kind of like a cartoon character. When I was little I used to wear McDonalds halloween buckets on my head everyday and earned the nickname "McBoo." I also used to wear black sunglasses that said "Shit Happens" on the side. I'm kinda scared of werewolves for some reason. I order my bean burritos with no onions.
I'm currently being trained by Preston Steele at the All-Star School of Professional Wrestling. It's the first step in living out the dream I've had since I was a child.
I'm online all the time. AIM=RefuseTheKill

My Interests

I love pro wrestling more than anything in the world... WWE, ECW, WCW, TNA, ROH, CZW, WSX, NJPW, Dragon Gate, Toryumon, indy feds, whatever I can get a tape of or see live. I'm also into UFC and other mixed martial arts.

I'm a big fan of stand up comedy. Some of my favorite comedians are Zach Galifianakis, David Cross, Pauly Shore, Dave Chappelle, Nick Swardson, David Spade, Dane Cook, Howie Mandel, Carrot Top (yeah I said it), and of course George Carlin.

Besides that I like horror movies, my cats, your cats, stray cats, hats, cheese pizza, laughing, dreaming, hauntings, ghost stories, ghost hunts, organization, slot machines, buying DVDs, old video games, beards, long shorts, Legos, GI Joes, wrestling toys, toys in general, driving with no shoes on, Oregon Trail, laughing, Twizzlers, IcyHot, yelling real loud in my car, Virtual Pro Wrestling 2, listing my interests.

I'd like to meet:

- People who will let me practice wrestling moves on them.
- A monkey who gives high fives.
- People with Little Caesar's near their houses so I can come over and eat it.

*** Dragon effin' Kid!

*** Takuya Sugi wrestling as Shanao, Yoshitsune, Little Dragon, El Blazer, and Kamen Ranger Red. The dude is awesome!

*** Zack Galifianakis, my favorite comedian right now.

New news.

Today I started a new job. I got hired at Macy's doing shipping and receiving. It doesn't seem like a bad job so far, and it's only part time and shouldn't interfere with my wrestling. This is the fir...

My thoughts on the death of "The Crippler" Chris Benoit.

Last night Kevin, Shasta, and I watched the WWE Vengeance show on pay per view. Chris Benoit was scheduled to wrestle C.M. Punk for the vacant ECW Title, but it was announced he wouldn't be there due ...

Training Day. The blog, not the movie.

Today was the first day of wrestling training and I think it went really well. In comparison to the last time I was training, I left today feeling like I actually was learning stuff and felt proud. Ke...

My wrestling addiction in numbers. This is kinda funny.

I was cleaning off my shelves in my basement and spraying for ants before they try to invade my home tonight. This required me to move all of my videos onto the floor... if you've ever been here, you ...

The best weekend in the history of weekends.

On Saturday morning I rolled out of bed after only 3 hours of sleep and only had one thing on my mind... I was going to Detroit for a Ring of Honor show featuring some of my favorite Japanese wrestler...
