Sting, cease and desist in being adorbs and awesome. And sarky!

Bobby Roode can wear the hell out of a suit.

We also have a really crazy situation, where standing up for the boss is the heroes line!!

Oi TNA, less with the removal of clothing from the Knockouts. Sadly I fear last week's awesome was utterly accidental.

Kid Kash is about to be the Orton kind of good guy. i.e. thorough-going evil, but temporarily beating up bad guys. Also, chronically Southern, 'before you done come to this company' might be one of those phrases that I'm going to steal. I love that they both sucker punched each other.

Gunnar appears to be trying to live up/down to Opera's estimation.

They appear to have decided that the only way of keeping Steiner in line is to stick him with Bubba Ray. Bubba Ray is just *the* most fun. He's gloriously old school. (also, do we think they've hired another Brit or is Brutus Magnus/Doug Williams or Rob Terry going to have to defend our honour?)

Dear Mike Tenay, marching orders means 'you've been sacked'. ODB has not been given any kind of marching orders.

Oh James, my darlin'. Go strangle Angle!

I know a couple of you knit, so I was wondering if you had the same problem. I'm part way through a ball of wool, and suddenly the damn thing is broken or frayed and I have to unknit a row, seal it, and then carry on. Given the price of wool, it annoys me greatly.

Re: wool - I hate that. Blasted knots/frays. There are any number of flailingly-irritated topics on Ravelry or other knitting sites about knots/frays in balls of yarn, too. Supposedly industry standard allows for up to two knots per ball, but if the ball's only 90 yards to begin with... argh.

I think part of the reason I'm annoyed is that this knitting is for a present and I'm worried that if my cousin washes the whole thing will unravel and I don't want that.

James Storm/Chris Harris

Warning, some of the answers got a little long, because AMW were/are the tag team of my heart and I have a great many feelings and ideas about them.

who is the big spoon/little spoon
- finding a bed big enough for both of them is enough of a problem. When it first became clear that TNA were setting up base in Florida, they bought a house, nothing big, or fancy, but theirs. One of the hardest things was finding a big enough bed. Neither of them is particularly cuddly, and they tend to sleep separately within the same bed.

what is their favorite non-sexual activity - watching football on TV. Obviously they prefer college football, but any will do.

who uses all the hot water in the morning - Chris almost by default, since Storm's entirely convinced that, except for after matches etc, anything but lukewarm showers are for sissies.

what they order from take out - Harris is a maven for take-out pizza, and Storm goes along with it. There tends to be a general suggestion that they'll make up for it in the gym the day after.

what is the most trivial thing they fight over - Looking back on it, James thinks that might have been the problem, they really didn't fight over the little things. Chris just gave in on everything except the big things but on those he was so damn stubborn there was no talking to him.

who does most of the cleaning - Storm keeps the garden clean, mostly because it means that he can have grills outside, and while he's not quite as bad as the Texans around the place, he likes a good cook-out. They share the rest of it, not that there's much, neither of them have much stuff, and they're reasonably tidy.

what has a season pass in their DVR
who controls the netflix queue

- As they split up before either of these became a really big thing, I shall answer a more general question about TV. They don't mind so much what tv package they've got, as long as there's football on it. They find serial TV much harder to watch because they're never sure where they're going to be on any given day. There is a mutually assured destruction pact about either of them telling anyone else that they both watch American Idol.

who calls up the super/landlord when the heat’s not working - Harris, Storm suffers from a major case of 'when I get round to it'.

who steals the blankets - Neither of them. They both run kind of hot, so normally the blanket ends up halfway down the bed in the morning.

who leaves their stuff around - They both do. It gets tidied up, eventually.

who remembers to buy the milk - Harris, because otherwise they run out. Not that they don't anyway, given that *someone* has this tendency of drinking milk straight from the carton and not buying some more when he finishes it.

who remembers anniversaries - they don't have an anniversary, not as such, not for that. They tend to take the date they first tagged together, it saves arguments. The other good thing is that it means other people remember it for them, which means it does get remembered. They're both terrible with dates, they wouldn't remember it otherwise.
