WrestleMania 30 is This Sunday You Guys
I was going to title this post “WrestleMania XXX is this Sunday” but I had a feeling it would attract the wrong crowd. Either way, it’s a big YES. The card is stacked, and of course we can’t help but snoop on the spoiler sites and read all the HUGE names that are in town for a possible appearance. If you love wrestling and will be watching Sunday, jump on over to Twitter and follow us @averagenobodies. We’ll be drinking a lot of Steveweisers and tweeting along with all the action. Have a great weekend everybody.

P.S. We were at the Raw in the GIF above. No big deal.
The @Banff_Squirrel is My New Favorite Thing on Twitter

A little background to this adorable twitter account: I work for an escorted tour company and every now and then we get to sit through presentations from tourism boards across the world that want us to sell their product. The most recent presentation was from the Canadian Tourism Board, more specifically Banff Springs and Lake Louise. The legend of the squirrel started years ago with this picture:
I don’t want to over exaggerate but that’s a pretty phenomenal photobomb. Almost immediately after this picture was sent into the Tourism Board, the legend of the Banff Squirrel was created. The twitter account is an extension of that legend, and the Banff Squirrel has been “photo bombing” people all over Banff and Lake Louise.
Great day exploring #mybanff yesterday with @EarthXplorer! @TravelAlberta pic.twitter.com/clFokQ6WFS

The Banff Squirrel is now the official ambassador of that region, and I for one think its doing a hell of a job. So go check it out on Twitter or don’t and be a Debbie Downer. The choice is yours.

Time to Power Up Your Wii U: Nintendo adds Game Boy Advance titles to it Virtual Console
As promised, today Nintendo is finally bringing classic Game Boy Advance game downloads to the Wii U’ s virtual console. And the company is kicking off the service with a bang, releasing a trio of excellent games with Metroid Fusion, Advance Wars, and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. The games will run you $7.99 each, and you can play them either on your TV or on the console’s tablet-like Gamepad controller. New GBA games will be added to the service every week in April, with classics like WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames! and Golden Sun slated to launch in the coming weeks. It might not be quite the shot in the arm the Wii U needs, but these classics should at least hold you over until Mario Kart 8 launches next month. – The Verge
Good move by Nintendo. Should have been done months ago, but good move. Can’t wait for Mario Kart 8, so until then Metroid Fusion will hold me over.

The 2014 WWE Hall of Fame Rings are Real and They’re Spectacular
Great Lincoln’s beard these are awesome. I can honestly say that I would pick a WWE Hall of Fame ring over any championship ring from a major sport. There are so many guys who get a world series or Superbowl ring and they had nothing to do with helping the team win, but a WWE Hall of Fame ring is something earned by the individual. It just oozes class. Vince McMahon has outdone himself again.

Bill Murray Stopped By David Letterman’s Show And Now I Want Him to Be a Late Night Guest Every Night
Bill Murray is like the opposite of that selfie song. When I hear that song I hate selfes, but when Bill Murray takes one I can’t help but think its the coolest thing in the world. That’s power. Also, how much of a power couple would Lady Gaga and Bill Murray be? She dresses like an animal and blows people away with her voice and he walks around cracking jokes, stealing peoples French fries and making everybody’s day. The more I think about it the more I’d be on board for a variety show. I basically want any way to get Bill Murray on my TV 7 times a week. If I ran a TV station that would be my first order of duty: pay Bill Murray whatever he wants and let him have his own show. Ratings juggernaut.

Anna Kendrick’s SNL Promos Give Me High Hopes for Her Hosting Debut Saturday Night
Can not wait for Saturday night. Louis C.K. was awesomely weird last week, and I’m hoping for more of the same with Anna Kendrick. The cool thing about actors like Anna Kendrick is that they can incorporate some musical sketches throughout the night because they know the host can nail it. Also, I need me some more Mike O’Brien this week. He’s slowly becoming my favorite cast member, and almost all of the sketches he’s in have just the right amount of weird to make it funny. Throw in a strong Weekend Update (last weeks sucked: ONE GUEST? Come on, SNL) and Pharrell’s big hat and this SNL should be pitch perfect (see what I did there).
