What was the old gas chamber background music, circa 2004?

I remember it being "Treat Me Mean, I Need the Reputation" by XplodingPlastix as a MIDI version. Sounds a whole lot like this.

I remember reading about the "holy grail" of Porn, which was some just turned 18 year old girl who made one film for money, but then it never got released because her parents sued the company, since then I think they might have released it but I'm not sure. Anybody know what I'm talking about?

There was a website for a band called the "Fat Kid Network" back in the late 90s. They had this hilarious flash animation that involved Mr. T, Gary Coleman, Abe Lincoln, and Osama Bin Laden.

They had changed the audio at one point to remove all of the copyrighted music, and soon after, the whole website went dark. I'd kill for a copy of that flash animation!

I don't think it was the midi version, I think it was the loop from around 3:25 to 3:35 of the actual song. I remember the clapping and 'yea' pretty clearly.

This shouldn't be too hard to find, because I am probably being too lazy in searching for it.

It was a video of a street fight that took place on what looked like to be a soccer field (so, a soccer field fight). It was between a black kid vs a white kid. The video starts off with the black guy visibly offended after being called a "fuckin pussy" by the white guy. The white responds with a horribly telegraphed punch and gets rocked right in the face. The black guy proceeds to get on top of him raining punches, and kicks the white guy in the head while he is standing up. Black guy yells at white kid for "talking poo poo" (i don't remember exactly) and the white kid looks like he is crying, and everyone is laughing at him. Also the video ended with a firecracker being lit inside of an apple.

There's an awesome image that's more or less an artist's interpretation of maybe 50 or more pre-Cambrian life forms all on the one page. From memory, going by the shading it looked to have been scanned from pencil drawing or lithograph, but I can't find it on GIS anymore. Anyone know the picture I mean?

If you mean animals from the Cambrian Explosion, then I'm willing to bet you're thinking of one of the plates from Stephen Jay Gould's Wonderful Life, but I can't find any of them online either.

If you actually mean Precambrian, then a GIS for "Ediacaran fauna" brings up all sorts of things.

I have a dilemma. See, whilst joking around with a few friends on a road trip many moons ago, my friend brought up this song that he used to listen to when he was younger. It was a rap song about killing your mother, with lyrics along the lines of "If she makes you clean your room, put her to her doom, kill your mother". Now I've googled the poo poo out of that song, only to come up with some Sage Francis song that isn't anything like what my friend described. I'll have to say the song could have originally been from 1993-1998.

If you find this or know anything about it then you will have made my life so much happier.

I remember actually hearing the song you are talking about on the Cosby show. There was an episode dedicated to it. "So move mother move, mother move, mother mother." Was another lyric if that helps / doesn't help .

Edit: Beaten while typing my own question!

It's funny that I knew that, because I also came here with a webcomic question.
A few months ago we had a thread about the end of the Perry Bible Fellowship comic, and a few posters suggested strips that were similar to PBF.
I can't find the thread, and I'm specifically interested to find one of the webcomics from that thread. One of the strips had a time traveler going back in time to kill Hitler, and Hitler's body guard started wondering why that was happenning all the time. Something like that. Does any of this sounds familiar to anyone?

Yes, evidently you had misperceived it as rain.
On IFC's website back before it really took off, there was an independently made video that used stop-motion to follow a bunch of brightly-colored balls around a toy-factory with weird-looking puppets manning the stations. It was insane and very cool.

I dream of finding it again, but have yet to.

Back in 2001 or 2002, there was an animutation called "Three Beans". It had an Indian(?) song playing in the background, where something repeated in the lyrics sounded like "three beans". It was taken down in 2002 maybe, could have been a copyright violation for the song. It's a long shot, but does anyone remember this? Or, more importantly, the title of the song used? I still remember the song from this many years later, but I don't know the name of it.

The only reference on the internet I can find for this at all is a message board post from 2004.

I think theo was hanging out with the wrong people and listening to that music. They told him they understood his "rage" and wanting to protest it and then they played Jazz music which was "protest" music. All in all I think it was don't listen to violent music episode.

Not an Internet thing, but maybe I'll have some luck asking about it.

I remember an episode of that old show "That's Incredible" about how a guy was able to figure out when a group of progressive slot machines was going to hit the jackpot. I believe the casino was Ceaser's and he won a million dollars. (The jackpot was something like $800,000+, but they rounded up.) They didn't explain how he did it, but I assume he had some info on how they generated the pseudo-random numbers and was able to determine the seed(s). They mentioned he wrote a computer simulation of the slot machines and knew how many pulls it was going to take. That's the only conceivable way I know it could have been done legally.

Tried googling for this episode and came up blank. Any child of the 80s remember this?

I have found mention of the episode, which seems to go under the title "Millionaire Payoff/Cusa Cure/Double Dutch followup". I can't find any more details than that. I'm not sure if you have it in your area, but here the Detroit ABC station carries the Retro Television Network on one of it's sub channels. RTN is showing old episodes of That's Incredible on the weekends.

I've been looking for two things for the past few years and I can't find either, so hopefully folks can help:

1. There was a movie I saw, it looked like it was made in the 80s. I don't think it was a porn, it looked like one of those "raunchy comedies" like porkies or meatballs. It was about a guy who decided to take a year long cruise on his yacht, and took along a year's supply of champagne with him. That's all he drank. When he got back, something had happened and all the men left on Earth were impotent or couldn't impregnate women. He was the only guy left who could get women pregnant, so each country sent one chick to a "Miss Universe" style pageant and he would bang them. The movie would just show all the chicks prancing around in a bikini, the guy with a "Holy poo poo, I can't believe my luck" look on his face, and then fade to black. I've done keyword searches on google for site:imdb.com with poo poo like last potent man left on earth, year on a boat drinking champagne, and I just can't find it.

2. The other was a trailer that I saw for a movie. I swear it was called "The Duel" but that's obviously not the name because I've googled it a bunch of times. It was about court intrigue, where people went to battle with their wits, and it was all about making your opponent look like a fool. There's a french movie from the 80s called "Ridicule" but that's not really it. This looked like a movie from the late 90s or early 2000s, I saw a trailer for it and I was fairly sure it was in english. It showed two guys (wearing powdered wigs and such) talking poo poo to each other, and there was a big audience of noblemen standing around them in a circle. So it was the two of them arguing and something like 30 nobles standing in a semicircle watching them fight. There was some kind of hokey narration about how your wit was life or death. There was recently a denzel movie about wit, but that's not it either.

I've been looking for those two items for the last few years with no luck. If anyone has any ideas of how I can look for them, even if you don't know which movies they were if you have any techniques for finding movies I'd appreciate em.

I probably should have suggested "Vendian fauna" over "Ediacaran fauna" as a search phrase, as the latter is a much more limited term. Do post if you end up finding it - this is vaguely related to my thesis area so I always find it interesting.
