I keep thinking it reads "circumcision device", which would also understandably have a lot of warning text.

Not precisely something I've tried to find for ages, but I could swear that I heard the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald recently either on TV or in a movie/trailer and my searches are all coming up with nothing.

A ridiculous scene from a cop procedural (?) that I think was discussed somewhere on the forums: just before being shot to death by a cop, a criminal guy has a vision of a woman who's his wife or girlfriend in an alternate universe where he wasn't a criminal? Something like that? Then the bullet hits and he just dies. The conversation was about how the scene was one of the dumbest the person had ever seen. Maybe I dreamed this, dunno.

There was some guy who showed up in one of the upcoming movie threads in CD with a post that went something like " check out this rad hilarious movie I just saw a trailer for" and it was some god awful comedy about an idiot who didn't know how to dance and he learned how to dance. After about 5 seconds of digging people found out the guy who made the post made the same post in bunches of other forums and that he played the lead of the movie. He had a pretty funny meltdown about it. This was maybe 6 or 7 years ago. His name was Tommy Tuna or something. Does anyone know what that movie was called?

Junk posted:back in the late 90s in canada this new channel appeared called Teletoon. nowadays it's a pale shadow of its former glory, but back when it was new they would air just about fuckin anything late at night. I remember they'd sometimes have these old crappy cartoons that looked like they were from the 70s or something. I don't remember what this one was called, but it aired right after The Nudnik Show or around the same time as it (after 9PM, circa 1997/98). Here is how I remember this show: it featured a boy and a girl who were playing in a junk yard or landfill or something and built a car out of an old bathtub and some other trash that was lying around. There was some explanation of how it worked narrated by the boy as it showed the moving parts appearing on the bathtub as he described them to the friendly junk yard owner. they get in the bathtub car and start to ride around in it until it breaks down. the children lament that "delilah" isn't there to pull them back home, and the junk yard owner who is also riding in the bathtub car with the kids, tells them that she is. A smiling donkey then appears, apparently having been riding covertly in this bathtub the whole time. the boy exclaims "deliah! are WE GLAD to SEE YOU!" then some other stuff happens that I don't remember, i think my parents made me go to bed at this point. I found a schedule from May '98 which includes the Nudnik show, but there really isn't anything which could be the show you're describing. The show Frame by Frame is a compilation show, which may have it but the one I found at youtube didn't have kids in a bathtub. Maybe it's just lost for good? https://web.archive.org/web/19980503130851/http://teletoon.com/schedule.htm#adult https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB17F9223E8277584 I also found a more comprehensive list of all shows broadcast on Teletoon: https://teletoonandbeyond.fandom.com/wiki/Cartoons_By_Years

There's a creepy graphic novel that I believe i saw on these very forums many years ago I've been trying to recall the name of, it was about a student and professor cataloging strange features on buildings, like an out of place brick sticking out, becoming more and more obsessed with these weird features, then the professor tells the student to hurry over, as they've made a discovery, and when the student arrives, the door to the office is gone, replaced with a wall, and upon seeing it they forget everything and go back to normal life, anyone know what I'm talking about?

Who's the online artist that makes concept art of various types of mecha, usually with accompanying lore? I remember some of the concepts were biomechanical and others were just heavy mechanical with a strong influence from old Soviet or German tanks, and some weren't even mecha at all but wasteland scavengers in plague doctor masks, or twisted energy beings or creatures.

A particularly strange foreign film, the only thing I can remember about it is a scene of a man in his apartment, playing guitar in his kitchen. It was in french, or spanish, or something like that, and the entire movie was pretty surreal with lots of weird architecture and design-- I think I remember a flying car, or a train that ran on tracks really high off the ground, right outside the window of the apartment of the guitar-playing man? I also think that the guitar-playing man's scene was apropos of nothing else in the film, the camera just zoomed into his window or something like that, and there he was.

It's like a meme video, badly animated of an imperial guard trooper marching across various backgrounds, with some funny music playing. I got the impression it's a format where you'd have different people doing the walking, but I only ever saw that one?

I read William McNeill's "Rise of the West: A History of the Human Community" for my master's research ages ago, and there was an off-handed remark about a small group of "adventurers" (like 6, 10, a dozen, something like that) who nearly conquered Constantinople in the 1500s/1600sish, said so flippantly like this was some kind of anecdote everyone knows, but of course I have absolutely no idea what it referred to nor have I ever been able to figure it out. Any History Goons who immediately know what this is? It basically sounded like the best D&D game ever from that description I tried to find the passage again in the book at some point after that but it is like 8 million pages and I felt like even if I read it from cover to cover again I could easily doze off mid-sentence and miss it

Any History Goons who immediately know what this is? It basically sounded like the best D&D game ever from that description I asked some D&D friends who are history nerds and one of them found the section: quote:Nevertheless, the Byzantine empire died slowly. Periods of partial recovery, such as that between 1081 and 1180 under the energetic Comneni emperors, resembled the spectacular recoveries of earlier Byzantine history; but in the long run the social and economic processes undermining the power of the central government proved more than even the most resolute emperors could overcome. During the twelfth century, first Serbia (from 1167) and then Bulgaria (from 1187) broke away from Byzantine sovereignty. A more crippling disaster was the capture of Constantinople by Western Crusaders in 1204. Frankish adventurers held the city until 1261 and carved out duchies for themselves from the richest Byzantine territories of Europe, although they failed to overrun northwestern Asia Minor, where Greek rule and the imperial title survived. Even after the Greek emperor regained his capital, the territories he ruled consisted only of dispersed fragments, owning little more than a nominal allegiance to Constantinople. This is in McNeill's discussion of the Fourth Crusade.

Hahaha IMMEDIATELY Great thanks to you and your posting gang, now I get to do my own digging into that random aside. And wonder why I decided he had given a number. At least I was right to not remember specifics! Edit: My minimal knowledge of middle ages civilizarional terminology goes a long way to explaining how mysterious I found that entry, when it turns out "Frankish" was just a different way of referring to the French crusaders, so that was just reiterating that it was in control of the Fourth Crusade until 1261. Well at least I know the truth now! Dr. Quarex fucked around with this message at 16:09 on Dec 19, 2022 |

I saw an anime on Space network (Canada's version of SciFi) in the 90s that took place on possibly Mars or something and they were chasing each other on space motorcycles. The animation and design felt very organic, and I remember the space motorcycles bending or stretching around corners. I don't know if that was just a stylistic design choice or if the bikes in the show/movie were actually bendy.

It's probably NOT "Venus Wars", but that anime, IIRC, did have strange one-wheeled motorcycles and I think was part of the US Sci-Fi channel anime library. edit: Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL1LuxOWQNk

I saw some hbo movie or something as a young teen about an unexpected house guest who seduces the whole family. It wasn’t a soft core, it was a thriller. Dude was a redhead and I imagine him looking like the redhead dweeb from American psycho. There was a scene where he’s in the hot tub with the family’s son?
