He slept with another man's wife and didn't know he was being recorded.

That still doesn't avoid the fact that he was on tape saying that he didn't like his daughter having a relationship with a black man who wasn't nine feet tall and making a billion dollars playing basketball.

Specifically, Terry Bollea was fired from his persona as Hulk Hogan in 2007 after a video surfaced of him complaining about his daughter dating a black man. During the rant, he repeatedly and gratuitously used the n-slur to refer to the boyfriend in question.

The tape was part of a set of recordings Bollea sued the gossip column Gawker over, which also featured him having sex with the wife of his best friend, Bubba the Love Sponge - yes, that's the guy's actual legal name, not a stage handle.

I thought it was 2014. The Gawker trial also included this amazing phrase, "Hulk Hogan has a ten-inch penis. Terry Bollea has a 3-inch penis."

I don't know what to be more shocked by.

The fact someone's legal name is Bubba the Love Sponge or that such a comment was actually used in a court of law.

Well as far as legal name changes go, that's more of a standout. Much more bizarre things have been said and done in courtrooms.

But we're getting further off the point.

Speaking of Hulk, how do you think they're gonna tackle Super Saiyan 2 Gohan when that time comes? I think they'll go one of three ways: Gohan but more serious like they did with Goku, turning him into the Hulk like Broly, or having him not talk and just kick ass until Goku dies and he goes back to the way he was before.

Gohan vs Cell is going to be played like Trunks vs Frieza; mostly serious from the protagonist point of view.

It would be sort of neat if Gohan starts trying to compute the exact amount of force needed to destroy Cell completely.

Question: Why is DBZ Abridged considered by this site to be a Web Original of the 2010's? Didn't it premiere in 2008?

That's only two years in the 2000's and a whole 8 years in the 2010's, so it would make sense for it to be under media of the 10s.

I remember that after Raditz dodges his beam, Piccolo says that "he's faster than the speed of light." In the Ocean dub anyway. Does he say anything like this in other dubs? The energy beams everyone fires don't move at the peed of light, do they?

Piccolo is almost certainly speaking out of his ass then.

You know, I never gave it much thought, but after we mostly saw people in pre-saiyan saga DB either tanking shots or countering with their own, the fact that Raditz foiled Piccolo's super attack by simply side-stepping it is kinda funny.

They started approaching the speed of light around Namek, when Goku flew halfway around Namek in a couple minutes. It got totally broken by the Buu Saga, when Gotenks flew around Earth 8 times in a few seconds. Whis can cross the entire universe in 30 minutes. Dyspo is described as being faster than light without even using either of his techniques that give him super speed.

The Earth's circumference is only about 25000 miles. 400k/3 seconds is only about 135k miles per second. That's a sizable fraction of the speed of light, but still below it.

Okay, so it was actually 9 times in 6 seconds, and he was significantly above the Earth's surface. Oh yeah, this is also Super Saiyan 1 Gotenks, more than 8 times weaker than the latter Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks.

Okay, so only 3/8th the speed of light instead of 2/3. Also, I'm basically positive that an X increase in power level does not equate to an equal increase in physical ability.

If power level scaled exactly with attributes such as speed, and the average human has a power level of 5, you'd only need a power level of about 4.8 million to achieve faster-than-light speed.
