LOL Jesus Christ another one??
It's a term to describe AEW fans, not coined by me, I'm just championing it because it's a great term. They tried this lame attempt at a counter argument 2 weeks ago. I already replied to the last unoriginal poster who's best comeback was "uhhh I don't think you know what cult means". https://www.tpwwforums.com/showpost....postcount=3861 |

Why do I do this to myself? I come into a thread about ratings when I don’t give a shit about the ratings knowing full well that xrod will have been triggered by someone’s obvious attempt at baiting him and the thread descends into a slanging match. Same every week. I need to be better than this.

xrod proving once again that he doesn't know what words mean, but he'll keep using them to feel smart!

Using the word "cult" but only acknowledging a small fraction of the word's true meaning, in this case "a group of fans", reduces that word to the point where it no longer carries the same meaning as the original word. You are using the word "cult" when really you mean "group of fans" and you are doing this because of the negative connotations the actual word implies and you are basing this on the vitriol of those who you heard using it. By your own admission, bolding only a section of the definition, you do not appear to grasp the reasoning behind the use of the word "cult" or it's implications because you feel that it is simply a "great term" to really dunk on those who enjoy AEW. You consistently fail to show any understanding of the term, in addition to to complete miss on grasping the word "irony" and contextual misuse of "naive". Your use of the word cult here should apply to anything with absolutely no consequence. Do you like wrestling? Cultist. Do you prefer boxers or briefs? Cultist. You have a favourite colour? Absolute cult. The application of words is not as simple as spewing them out and hoping people gather your intent. You are also the same person who will call somebody unoriginal for pointing out the gaping flaws in your use of terminology, while at the same time you admit you only use said terminology because you saw somebody else say it first. I'll give you some time to figure out what you did wrong there. This is your chance to prove you're not just slinging out words you heard somebody else use without the faintest clue what they mean. Go on. We are all waiting, champ. |

Do you see that little : symbol? That means it is the next definition of the word. I did not JUST pick out a few words. 2 of the 3 accepted definitions describe exactly what I said. How do you not understand how a dictionary works? You also don't understand math. 2/3rds is the majority, not a "small fraction". How was that, champ? |

My favorite part about xrod calling AEW fans "cultists" is that he also watches AEW.
He is the cult. |

The last two definitions you are referring to have the same meaning, but the dictionary YOU YOURSELF suggested broke down the usage as an adjective and as a singular noun. "Something very popular among a particular group of people" AEW is very popular among a particular group of people, who are too stubborn or too stupid to admit everything about AEW is NOT the second coming of Jesus. There are fans of wrestling that more or less enjoy AEW (such as myself), and then there are "Cultist" who figuratively blow AEW no matter what, and lose their shit when someone else criticizes their love interest. If AEW closed tomorrow, a fan would say "damn, oh well". A "Cultist" would cry themselves to sleep. Seriously, how the fuck do you suggest the specific dictionary, then disagree with what that dictionary says? You are some kind of special. |

To be honest, I'm thinking he started this whole damn thing by remembering the name of Jim Cornette's "Cult of Cornette."

Also it's hilarious that x-rod's entire identity as a poster is based on something that doesn't even exist here (and that he's too dumb to realize it).

This place sucks so much. Some of you really need to reflect on yourself. Such a gang mentality to try and go after a guy because he doesn’t like AEW and has the audacity to tell you why. Stop being such cunt pickles.

There are certainly people who get very silly when you dare criticisize AEW. Look at how some of you are acting towards xrod.

I think the way people are acting toward Xrod is due to his posting the same thing, over and over, without any kinda backing.
All these claims of people who lose their mind about AEW Criticisms on TPWW, but I haven't seen anything that resembles that. Rather than make his case and prove his point by quoting said posts, he goes out of his way and looks real silly arguing over definitions and memes. |

It’s REALLY hard to talk to the people here. Conversation is...dense. I totally get it. It’s more rewarding to troll than make an effort, because people decide they just don’t wanna hear it. And they do get worked up, lol. That’s what the gang mentality is about. It’s to stamp out the unbeliever.
But it’s not just here. People seem to be tuning out and have stopped caring about the product at large, but for a while it was really hard to bring up an objective criticism anywhere. It did happen on TPWW, but it’s not exclusive to that and I don’t get the whole “Where are these people here?” argument. It doesn’t mean they don’t exist or that the double standards for one shitty sports entertainment company and another aren’t frustrating. |
