Grunting (tennis)
Grunting in tennis is a loud noise made by some players while hitting their shots. Such noises have sometimes been described as "shrieking" or "screaming". Monica Seles, and Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe are generally considered to be the "grunt creators" in the women's and men's games, respectively. Examples of contemporary tennis players who grunt are Serena Williams, Venus Williams, Maria Sharapova, Victoria Azarenka, Aryna Sabalenka, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz, Dominic Thiem, David Ferrer, and Gustavo Kuerten.

Glitch In The System
A glitch is a short-lived fault in a system, such as a transient fault that corrects itself, making it difficult to troubleshoot. The term is particularly common in the computing and electronics industries, in circuit bending, as well as among players of video games. More generally, all types of systems including human organizations and nature experience glitches. A glitch, which is slight and often temporary, differs from a more serious bug which is a genuine functionality-breaking problem. Alex Pieschel, writing for ''Arcade Review'', said: bug' is often cast as the weightier and more blameworthy pejorative, while 'glitch' suggests something more mysterious and unknowable inflicted by surprise inputs or stuff outside the realm of code." Etymology Some reference books, including ''Random House's American Slang'', claim that the term comes from the German word ''glitschen'' ("to slip") and the Yiddish word ''glitshn'' ("to slide", "to skid"). Either way, it is a relatively ne ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Grunt (horse)
Grunt (foaled 12 November 2014) is a retired Thoroughbred racehorse bred in New Zealand and trained in Australia. He won two Group One races, and over a million dollars. Career Grunt made his debut on 20 May 2017 at Flemington. Jumping at odds of $26, he finished third. After a long spell, Grunt broke his maiden at Werribee on 10 December. On the 26th, he had another "effortless" win at Morphetville. Trainer Mick Price said, "Grunt is a work in progress but is a really good horse. I think he’s a big Flemington horse. I can’t wait to get him to 2000 and 2400 (metres) but he is a colt so we’ll try to maximise value on him." A short spell followed before Grunt contested the C S Hayes Stakes. Jumping at $7, he settled just off the pace before getting in the clear in the last 200 metres, winning by a short length. Jockey Damien Oliver said, "I really like the way he dug deep when I asked him." Grunt then won the million dollar Australian Guineas by half a length after start ...

The Brothers Grunt
''The Brothers Grunt'' is an adult animated comedy television series, and the earliest series made by ''Ed, Edd n Eddy'' creator Danny Antonucci. It originally aired from August 15, 1994, to April 9, 1995, on MTV. It centers on five humanoids, named Frank, Tony, Bing, Dean and Sammy, who are in search of their lost brother Perry. The series had a short run and was met with a generally negative reception, with many considering it one of the worst animated TV shows ever made. Overview Premise The series centered on an ensemble cast of pale, rubbery, twitchy, yellow-eyed, shirtless humanoids with prominent bulging varicose veins often leaking various noxious bodily fluids who are distantly related to human beings, all of them ostensibly male, wandering around in their boxers. Their main food staple is cheese; nevertheless, they are able to eat other foods (at least potatoes, according to the episode "Not My Potato"). Their single parent is a large, floating, mute and fat male huma ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Troll 2
''Troll 2'' is a 1990 horror film directed by Claudio Fragasso (under the pseudonym Drake Floyd) and starring Michael Stephenson, George Hardy, Connie McFarland, and Jason Wright. Although produced under the title ''Goblins'', the American distributors marketed it as a sequel to the 1986 horror film ''Troll''; however, the two films have no connection, and this film features no trolls but goblins instead. The plot concerns a family pursued by vegetarian goblins who seek to transform them into plants so that they can eat them. Production was rife with difficulties, largely due to the language barrier between the Italian-speaking crew and English-speaking cast, and producer Joe D'Amato's approach to low-budget filmmaking. The resulting film is considered by some as one of the worst movies ever made. In subsequent years, the film gained a cult following and garnered a large fanbase. Though it was generally viewed as poorly made horror, the filmmakers stated that it was "alwa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Grunts!
''Grunts!'' (1992) is a satiric fantasy novel by British writer Mary Gentle. It is set in a basic fantasy world taken from the usual ''The Lord of the Rings'' mould, with orcs and elves using magic and typical medieval weaponry, but it plays heavily on black comedy and strong doses of violence and graphic description, frequently depicting scenes "over the top." Plot summary The story follows a group of orcs who always find themselves on the front lines of battle against the carefully prepared and always triumphant forces of good. The orcs decided to organize themselves and fight back. As a satire of high fantasy the novel mocks most of the conventions of the genre from using traditional villainous races, orcs, as the protagonists, to having the noble characters have much less than noble motivations and secrets. The opening of the book plays up the orc warleader sent to reclaim a weapons cache in preparation for the 'Last Battle' between good and evil, which is well on its way ...
