It’s so funny remembering how the simpsons was so goddamn controversial. It wasn’t even the filthiest or most offensive show on at the time, but simpsons became the huge target.

The 90s were funny

The religious conservatives believed that its popularity was a sign that american media would continue to slip down the slope of more and more mature content on television.

To be fair, they ended up being right.

From sounded good to me too but I got big "this is never going to finish satisfyingly" vibes, either from premature cancelation or just never having an end in sight to begin with. Curious to hear from anyone who actually watched the full season

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I had an uber christian friend who's parents wouldn't allow him to watch R rated movies ever and they had to prescreen any movie that was pg13 before they allowed their kids to watch it.
He wasn't allowed to listen to any rap whatsoever( because of the lyrics, not because those people sing it) and videogames of any kind were absolutely forbidden.

So one lunch me and some other friends were talking about the new Adam Sandler cd I got and how hilarious it was. My christian friend begged me to let him borrow it so I brought it a few days later and gave it to him. He tries to sneak it into his house but it fell out of his bag as soon as he got home. His parents made him sit down and listen to the entire thing with them. Just picture a kid who's never seen an R rated movie having to listen to a song about shoving a shampoo bottle up your dickhole at a medium pace with his parents . He told me later his mom started crying at the Tollbooth Willy skit. I think there were also several skits about beating teachers to death.

Later that night there was a knock on the door. They drove over to our house and made him return the cd. His dad told mine he should be careful what filth I listened too. He listened to about 5 minutes, said " what the gently caress is this poo poo" then went right back to watching Law and Order. My friend wasnt allowed to hang out with me for months.

Three Pines is just the name of the TV Series, actually. There never was a Two Pines or indeed even a Pine. But I can see where the confusion would arise.

I hope somebody realizes that they are taking the piss out of the horrible 80s flop "Perfect" where John Travolta plays a reporter for Rolling Stone who has to infiltrate the hottest aerobics studio in town run by Jamie Lee Curtis.

There's a fan made music video for an Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti

which is wonderful. Also the Austin Chronicle ran an event where local comedians Master Pancake Theater riffed it live.

Edit: If I had a say "Perfect" would be the next BotW Spotlight. Truly awful film.

The Eric Prydz video came out in the mid-2000s (near the tail end of "lad culture" and the days of lad mags like Maxim and Loaded) as just one of several club tunes that all had videos showing off scantily-clad hot women; so TBH, I really don't think they put any thought into the setting beyond it being a flimsy justification for showing off plenty of boobs and butts

E: upon reading a bit further it looks like the video was very much inspired by Perfect, though I couldn't find anything definitive as to whether it was spoof or homage, but yeah they were certainly aware of the movie it seems
