Xena the Wrestler

Acquaintance: I can’t believe the chick from Xena: Warrior Princess is Chyna the Wrestler.

Me: You can’t believe it because it isn’t true.

Acquaintance: Yes it is!

Me: Nope. Different people.

Acquaintance: Look it up.

Me: Lucy Lawless was never a wrestler.

Acquaintance: Look up wrestling!

Me: Chyna’s birth name was Joan Marie Laurer. Not Lucy Lawless. Also, she’s dead.

Acquaintance: She’s dead?! Since when?

Me: 2016. Drug overdose.

Acquaintance: Are you sure that’s not-

Me: Look at the Wikipedia page. Nothing about wrestling at all. It does have her listed as a lesbian icon, though.

Acquaintance: A lesbian icon? That doesn’t make any sense.

Me: Doesn’t make… did you ever watch Xena? You remember how she’s always traveling with Gabrielle?

Acquaintance: Yeah

Me: The hell you think they were doing when the camera cut away?

Acquaintance: I didn’t wanna assume nothin.
