FilthyImp posted:I've spoken on this a few times across threads but I love that Wood Inlay is now a premium option on poo poo like cars. Like wood on the outside or interior? poo poo, the Japanese used to love putting real wood inside even their mid-level luxury cars. Only vehicle I've owned with wood was a 1992 Acura Vigor, dash panels and tops of the doors. Thin, but with a nice close grain and fairly substantial backing. I miss all those bigger late 80's Japanese cars. Mazda 929s, the last 510/Maximas, early Legends, etc. Living where I did in the mid to late 90s, they were super cheap, too. Tool around in luxury until something expensive broke, trash it, buy another for $1500.

Gonz posted:brb gonna go wood panel my dishwasher. I can smell this picture. That cheap wood paneling of the era had a very specific smell. Though that's possibly the wood soaking up all the smell of the food prepped and cigarette smoke. Why do all my 80s memories involve smell memories? I have a very good nose, maybe thats why? I was always effected by strong smells.

Agreed, and it always blows my daughters mind that I remember when they came out. There’s a new one called whozeewhatsit or something that’s really good too

the ad wizards who came up with that one did a fine job of it considering i first heard it before i was 10 years old and it has been lodged in my brain til this day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FDpi75zuiw uber_stoat has a new favorite as of 19:31 on Oct 12, 2022 |

Feels like Brave Little Toaster should be on there, but then again it was late 80s and I watched it as a 90s lad so I guess that's where that one slots

I still cannot watch that scene with the shoe. Who Framed Roger Rabbit? is a stone-cold classic, but that goddamned scene hit way harder than it should have
|
# ? Oct 13, 2022 20:57 |
it hits real hard because they first establish that toons are basically impervious to physical violence but then they drop that horrible scene on you. very effective.

Plus watching that as a kid you probably hadn't yet gotten used to the idea of law enforcement murdering innocent people on a whim to suppress minority communities

# ? Oct 14, 2022 01:38 |

Basically every scene where there's injury or pain to toons gets played off as a joke, but Dip is an entirely gruesome death filled with terror and existential nothingness.

flavor.flv posted:Plus watching that as a kid you probably hadn't yet gotten used to the idea of law enforcement murdering innocent people on a whim to suppress minority communities The shoes act more like animals. They scatter when their shipping crate is opened and have to be rounded up by hand, and the one Doom dips is nuzzling up against his foot like a friendly cat. I realize this probably won't make that scene any easier to watch.

What 80s character would make for a good Halloween costume for a fella?
The party is going to be inside and warm, so the idea of doing marry mcfly with a jacket and a fluffy vest seems… uncomfortable. Same with black suit for blues brother.

Man, going to the ComputerLand store in the mall in the 80s was like a trip to the future. I can still picture a blue mousepad I got for my Mac Plus with their logo in the corner. e: after that closed we eventually got a Sharper Image store that I was hoping would have the same feeling, but all the poo poo in there sadly just felt gimmicky.

I never understood who these people were that used electric razors on the go. That hair's gotta go somewhere, and you're gonna want to wash your face after you shave it. But ads often showed dudes using them in the car and poo poo.
