I've noticed a trend on internet forums of the rise of the pro wrestling super-marks. These fans are annoying and puts off enjoying wrestling for the rest of us. These super-marks feel the need to know every nook and cranny of the wrestling industry. They need to be the first "to know," scouring the 'net and looking at spoiler sites to know every detail. It's as though they're still stuck in that childhood phase of being the first kid on the block with the newest toy.

These super-marks watch WWE, New Japan, Impact Wrestling, Pro Wrestling Guerilla, Ring of Honor, CMLL, AAA, All-Japan, NOAH, Chikara, Combat Zone, All American Pro Wrestling, Dragon Gate. How is watching all these promotions make one a passionate fan? Being a wrestling fan is fine, being a wrestling fanatic isn't.

Yelping. There's nothing wrong with leaving a review of a business if you've had a bad experience but certain yelp reviewers take it too far. They have a sense of entitlement.

A yelp elite gave a mediocre rating to an Irish pub in midtown because she felt the buttered pretzel was nothing special. The buttered pretzel was the cheapest food on the menu. Another yelp elite complained about a five dollar Subway sandwich because it didn't contain enough meat and lettuce. Another yelper left a tip on Roundtable Pizza because their buffet isn't anything she would go out of her way for. Their buffet is $6.99 and they refill its pizzas constantly from 11:00 am until 1:00 pm.

There is a disconnect between how much money they pay for services and the type of services they expect to get in return. They want a five-star gourmet meal for less than eight bucks and, when they don't get it, they give a one-star flaming review.

South Park covered this perfectly.
