I don't know if this is the right place for this, but if I remind just one person about the insane poo poo I'm about to share then I'll have done my job.

[url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMDXEapH_sk]Recently I researched and edited a video about a new age movement called the Universe People, who believe that some guy named Ashtar Sheran is helping our planet make sure it doesn't destroy itself. Ashtar is a Nordic looking man with flawless features and a colorful wardrobe. Ordinarily a fringe UFO cult would be rather unremarkable, but check out their website(s):

http://www.heavenly-angels.org

There are a number of spinoff sites which all link to the same lengthy diatribes about lizard men and the importance of positive thought. What really catches the eye are these choice graphics which cover the site. Here's just a few:

It's a lot like Star Trek: The Next Generation. While in many ways superior, they will never be as recognized as the original.

Of course. Austin Powers is wedded to two extremely specific bygone cultural eras and while some of the jokes are still good most of them are extremely context-dependent. If you don't know who or what the gently caress James Bond is all about and what the US was like in the late 90s then you're reliant on catchphrases and potty humor to carry you through. It's not all bad or anything but it ends up feeling like a time capsule in the bad ways. For all its pastiche it comes across as remarkably unsentimental and everything is at such a high level of cartoon artifice that it ends up being entirely superficial.

Wayne's World 1 and 2 are also extremely early 90s creations, but there's enough heart and universal appeal in the slacker story that it feels like a time capsule in the good ways. Jokes like Bohemian Rhapsody, fighting the father with dubbing, and "I will bow to no sponsor" are drat near evergreen even if you don't know what the gently caress Nuprin was or ever once watched a Hong Kong action flick. I can't say how it would play to a Zoomer, but now I want to try it out just to see.

I had no idea what song this was, but as soon as I heard the opening riff I was "oh yea I remember hearing this", its like rockabilly with a bit of synthpop. As soon as Todd mentions the Spice Girls, I realized that had Simon Fullers fingerprints all over it.

Yeah, it could have passed me by on MTV since I wasn't a regular at that point but it's like right in the heart of when I was extremely plugged in to pop music and I am 99% sure I've never heard it. Don't think it got much radio play in the southwest US.
