Ain't no way this is how I found out

[–] shittydwarf@sh.itjust.works 97 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No fuckin way Hogan died? Rest is piss you massive disappointment

[–] Darth_Lemmy@lemmy.zip 51 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

(straight to) hell, yea brothuur

[–] Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca 61 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I usually find out stuff like this too.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 51 points 1 day ago (1 children)

i found out about Queen Elizabeth by meme, so i guess that's the standard now

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemmy.zip 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I found out henry kissinger died from the same meme format as the OP

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Our people tell the same story

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

At least it wasn't Castiel this time.

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'd be pissed if I'd found out about Ozzy this way, but Hulk Hogan? IDK, it seems appropriate

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 7 points 1 day ago

Yep. Only pissed it didn’t happen sooner.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

I definitely found out about Ozzy from the same meme format

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 108 points 1 day ago (3 children)

My friend posted this online comment that summed it up perfectly.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 day ago (3 children)

What transgressions? Can't say I'm particularly informed beyond knowing who he was.

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

That and he sabotaged Jesse Ventura's attempt to unionize wrestling to get more money for himself. Given how incredibly abusive the company is to its performers, that's not a small thing.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 65 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

He was a hateful white supremacist. Other wrestlers, such as Iron Sheik, have been telling people how much of a dirt bag Hogan was since the 80s. People just thought it was part of the act tho.

[–] Krudler@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

"it's just the beer talking" made Bolea talk about beating up a female politician

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 day ago

If I remember corrected he was a right cunt when his son went drunk driving, crashing and killing his friend in the passenger seat.

[–] khannie@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Perfect summary. Absolutely nailed it.

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I was at Rock vs Hogan, skydome. Biggest crowd in Toronto indoor history, the entire Skydome was shaking. I and many others went in there to boo hogan but couldn’t help but cheer him on during that match. Epic. Go watch the crowd during that match, 80,000 going apeshit

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 138 points 1 day ago (1 children)

TBH getting Hulk Hogan was real fucking close to Trump.

I wish he died sooner.

[–] Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca 62 points 1 day ago

I was never into wresting, and never followed Hulk Hogan. Today I am learning about what a piece of trash he was.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 60 points 1 day ago (2 children)

This being so soon after Ozzy died, and Ozzy being 76 makes me feel like Hogan was like "check this out, brother! Imma live longer than Ozzy Osbourne!" And then just immediately died.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Considering Ozzy was a drug-fueled rockstar for decades who bit the head off a live bat and Hogan was marginally fit for all those years give or take some roids, I think Ozzy deserves at least several years of handicap.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago (2 children)

If you think taking steroids and working out to the point of causing massive scar tissue in your muscles is good for you, then I have a bridge to sell you.

[–] CptOblivius@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

He was no stranger to drugs and alcohol either.

[–] AFallingAnvil@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago

Don't forget the lifestyle of being hit with a steel chair doesn't do wonders for aging gracefully

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 35 points 1 day ago (3 children)

This is not how I imagined i'd find out about his death...

yeah i thought it'd be with a free beer

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Were you expecting a knock on the door?

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 day ago

I was expecting to see it from a news article, rather than a meme.

[–] oppy1984@lemdro.id 2 points 1 day ago

The wrestling fans turned on hogan, zapping him of his powers of hulkamania. I heard he shriveled like the dude in Indiana jones and the last crusade and turned to dust

[–] bizarroland@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Has death considered a GoFundMe, or maybe streaming on Twitch?

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Oh that's one channel id subscribe to.

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago

Rest in piss Terry.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 37 points 1 day ago

One less bigot in the world.

Roll again grim reaper…

[–] Sagan_Wept@lemmynsfw.com 15 points 1 day ago

[–] halvar@lemy.lol 3 points 1 day ago
