*The following article contains discussion of sexual assault.

Last week, Liam Neeson sat down with Men's Health to discuss his new film Marlowe and to also "answer some internet questions."

The questions ranged from his particular set of skills to his diet and Star Wars and beyond, to which Neeson responded honestly and bluntly ("I eat food.") And the straight shooter did not hold back on sharing his feelings about ultimate fighting nor expressing his thoughts on Irish fighter Conor McGregor.

He told Joshua St. Clair:

"UFC I can't stand. That to me is like a bar fight."
"I know the practitioners are like, 'No, you're wrong - the months of training we do...'"

He continued:

"Why don't you just grab a beer bottle and hit the other guy over the head? That's the next stage of the UFC."
"I hate it..."

Then, Neeson unloaded on McGregor:

"That little leprechaun Conor McGregor, he gives Ireland a bad name."
"I know he's fit, and I admire him for that. But I can't take it."

McGregor is not a favorite to many as he is known for his unchecked ego and for vilely running his mouth. He was also charged for assault in 2018 and accused of rape the same year.

Twitter, of course, weighed in.

A few called out Neeson for shaming fighting while getting massively paid for portraying violence in his films.


The majority, however, sided with Neeson on this one.









Well, you won't be seeing Neeson in the octagon any time soon, but you can catch him in Marlowe beginning February 15.

CNN Just Used A Hilarious Poll To Show Just How Unpopular Trump's Ballroom Is—And We're Cackling

After President Donald Trump claimed that his new White House ballroom is "very popular" with the American public, CNN shared a hilariously shady poll that gets to the truth of the matter.

Last year, Trump ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.

Woman In Labor Times How Long Her Husband Takes To Poop To See If She Can Push Their Baby Out Faster In Hilarious Viral Video

It's well-known across the internet that it takes forever for men to use the restroom. For dads especially, in the time it takes them to poop, when they return to the house, their kids will have aged seven years, and their baby will have learned to walk.

These are jokes, of course, but it's an internet consensus that men spend a really long time on the porcelain throne.

In early 2024, 49-year-old Antonia Eastwood married Ashley Monk after about five months of dating. During the ceremony, Antonia tripped while walking down the aisle.

Antonia and Ashley were both suspicious that she did not trip accidentally and that Ashley's sister, Gemma, actually tripped her. Gemma and Antonia were not close, and the couple also believed that Gemma might be jealous that they were marrying after five months, though she'd been with her childhood sweetheart for 20 years without tying the knot.
