about me
Howdy.
My name is Barry, I’m 20 years old, and I’m a journalism student in Ireland. On this blog you’ll find persona crap as well as mountains of posts from me about my various interests - TV, pro wrestling, video games, music, socialising, blah-blah-blah.
You can see my face, and any other personal gibberish that I’ve tagged with “#me” here.
So, what else do you need to know?
About me… and stuff
- I’m in my second year of college, studying journalism and new media. My dream job is to be a pro wrestling journalist.
- I am not religious.
- I enjoy alcohol, and doing stupid things after I’ve consumed too much of it.
- I used to study art, and I wanted to be a cartoonist growing up. I still doodle from time to time, and post them on here.
- My friends are the most important people in the world to me. There’s something very special about the bond you form with people when you drink ‘til you puke with each other.
About this blog
- The main things I blog about are video games and pro wrestling. They’re two fields of journalism I’d like to be involved with in later life. If you’re not a fan, it might not be the blog for you.
- On the flip side, this is also a personal blog with personal posts as well as a LOT of me and my many friends here just messing around and generally acting quite childish.
TV, Movies, Music and Games
- I’m not a big avid gamer any more, but I still play on a regular basis. I have a PS3, and you can add me on PSN. My name is “BarryM23”. I’m not on there very often though.
- My favourite games are: God of War series, Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, Resident Evil 4, Grand Theft Auto series, Red Dead Redemption, LA Noire, The Darkness, Saints Row 2, Heavy Rain, Goldeneye.
- The greatest YouTube series in the world of gaming is “Two Best Friends Play.” If you’re aware of it you probably get my blog title. If not GO WATCH THE SHOW NOW! It’s hilarious, and I promise you it wont disappoint.
- My favourite TV shows currently are: Boardwalk Empire, The Walking Dead and Beavis and Butthead.
- My all time favourite TV shows are: The Office (UK), The Wire, The Sopranoes, Trailer Park Boys, 24, Jackass, The Simpsons, Futurama and Extras.
- I like all kinds of music. Favourite bands or artists are: Radiohead, The Smiths, Bishop Lamont, Eminem, Bruce Springsteen, Kanye West and a load more I’m probably forgetting.
- Favourite films: The Dark Knight, Up, Wrestling Road Diaries, Seven, Wall-E, The Bourne Identity series, Kick Ass, tonnes more.
Wrestling
- I like all kinds of wrestling, from WWE to the indies. If you’re looking for a blog dedicate to just WWE, this isn’t it. In fact, I’m more likely to complain about how much they suck these days than to gush over how great they are.
- I’ve been watching wrestling since I was 10 years old.
- My favourite promotion right now is Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. And it’s not even close.
- I’m opinionated. If you’re a wrestling fan, you might not always agree with some of my long-winded rants, and I welcome the occasional debate!
- Favourite wrestlers currently: Kevin Steen, El Generico, Daniel Bryan, Rey Mysterio, Wade Barrett, Randy Orton, Chris Hero, Mark Henry, Davey Richards, Eddie Edwards, Willie Mack, AJ Styles, James Storm, Kofi Kingston.
- All time favourite wrestlers: Shawn Michaels, Daniel Bryan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, The Undertaker, Edge, Rey Mysterio and Chris Jericho.
- I like to support the indies.
- The female wrestler (or any real celebrity) that I drool over most frequently is Layla El.
Edits
- I make edits. Find them here. I tag them with different things because I’m lazy and inconsistent, so that page probably isn’t all of them.
- I’ve done some series of edits, none of which are finished. Dream matches, 30 day challenge, and Mark Out Moments of 2011.
- I make MVs and post them on youtube. My name is “BarryMurphy236” on there.
