« Donald is the new Adolph. »
— Lawrence O'Donnell at MS NOW explaining how the name "Donald" has reached its lowest point in popularity since records on newborns first began being kept in the US.
^^^ Lawrence also went on to detail how Trump is now the dope in Iran's rope-a-dope.
The Rumble in the Jungle- October 30, 1974
'Everybody feared for Muhammad Ali. Everyone. So I figured I’d go out there and knock him out in one or two rounds so he wouldn’t get hurt.
My corner instructed me to knock him out in the first round, second round, third round, and I didn’t conserve any energy.
Then I looked and it was the fourth round, and I had hit this guy with every shot I had to knock him out, he had not lost any ground. As a matter of fact, he was a little stronger.
On the other hand I had not punished him and knocked him out like I thought… I had got a little weaker.
I was devastated after the fight. I had been a professional all these years, I was undefeated in 37 boxing matches and nobody had ever beaten me I thought I knew how to navigate through anything, but a defeat.
I was devastated, I had nightmares. I kept waking up in the middle of the night thinking I’m going to beat the count and I lost the boxing match in my nightmares.
Things didn’t change. It was a hard time to live through. It was very hard for me to move on.'

My latest Dedede montage, showcasing some 1v1 and 3 player matches. For those who would like a break from the bulk of FFA / TB matches I've been putting out and see how I fare when facing only one/two opponents, I hope this montage meets your expectations!
45 years ago today, Muhammad Ali rope-a-doped George Foreman in "The Rumble in the Jungle".
Look at this fucking awesome short film I found randomly

Rope-A-Dope & ‘Putin On The Fritz’
I’ll preface the following by saying I haven’t checked to see if anyone has posted these thoughts before. I’m expecting it to be like when I thought of ‘Black Labs Matter’ only to find a multitude of mugs, t-shirts and posters available online in a wide range of colours, sizes, and designs - I was crestfallen.
That being said... Has the Russian Ministry of Defense been rope-a-doped by the Armed Forces of Ukraine? It appears to be the case. I hope milibloggers will start calling the counter-offensive in eastern Ukraine ‘the Kharkiv rope-a-dope’. I’d be tickled.
Speaking of dope, perhaps the Russians should’ve used their stockpile of performance-enhancing drugs on their military rather than their athletes. Actually, you wouldn’t bet against the Russians using drugs on elements of their armed forces. Even the Kremlin - think Putin, shirtless, on horseback - it would explain a lot if he’d been scoffing steroids. Might it also point to the over-reliance of the Russian military on tanks, large artillery pieces and missiles. Methinks a bit of over-compensation going on.
Lastly, I’m not a lyricist, so it would be quite good if someone could rewrite the lyrics to Irving Berlin’s Puttin’ On The Ritz to now be called Putin On The Fritz. I keep singing the title as I ride around Central London and even I’m becoming bored with myself. I need help (probably professional).
