Dawg Hair, SASS #29557 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I used to think that wrestling on TV was absolutely stupid, but I think the mentally (or lack, thereof) that produces this kind of entertainment is totally sick. Is it any wonder that kids arm themselves and go shoot up schools? As a society we are slowly going to hell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why I watch on Youtube, I skip all the nonsense and just watch the robots fight. I'll note that both MIT and Worcester Polytechnic Institute have both sent teams and takes some skill to build one of those robots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing this sort of levels the playing field. Kind of what Col. Colt did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
