Much as I enjoyed the evening of the fight (squad turned into a mini-party) make no mistake, it’s bullshit like this that makes me campaign for the death of the PPV system.

Mayweather/Pacquiao was a bloated, doomed homunculus of an event, impossible to live up to the hype. Charging people 90 – 100 USD to watch it live is a mockery of promotion and a cash grab if one ever existed, and proves my primary beef with this bullshit system: There is no guarantee of a good fight.

An inventive description taken here by Malefic. It is never really discussed (either by Lovecraft or his spiritual successors) what the visual texture of Cthulhu’s wings are. However, given the horrific nature of the beast, a dark veiny substance like marble would probably be most appropriate to set the tone of his appearance.
