I've been looking for the full The Crisis cassette album from 1992 for a long time. It's hard/folk rock from Nepal. There exist bootlegs of two tracks on vinyl but I can't even find a rip of the complete album online.

These high-G injections have some serious side effects after pulling so many jumps.

Another weird book-related request.

Looking for two volumes from a Norwegian architectural series. Specifically, I'm looking for a Eurogoon who can find these two books (ISBNs removed) in a physical bookstore where they are and buy them and list them for sale on Alibris or AbeBooks where I can buy them for my job, or link me to a bookseller with the books in stock. The publisher is out of stock. I've reached out to a few places but my Norwegian is through Google Translate. Feel free to PM me for more details.

I have a similar issue with Amazon.in if any India goons can offer assistance.

Do you need to physically own them? I've dug up a library in Germany that has them both, but I'm not sure if they'd be available for an inter-library loan.

Unfortunately it needs to be ownership. Also, if any enterprising goon can find those two books for sale in person where they are, gently caress it I will just buy them from said goon and figure out proper procedure later.

I have a short list of books that people want that I can't get for one reason or another. Sometimes I look at it and get sad, other times I look at it and feel like taking on a challenge.

Looking beautiful!
Which version of system are you going to run?
No, that is not one that they're looking for.
It may have popped up in a search since it's in a series, but that is ISBN 9788253041445, while they need 9788253037752 and 9788253040417.
I believe they'll appreciate the effort all the same.

A story (from Tumblr, maybe, but I probably read it on imgur) about a woman who was living with her (abusive?) boyfriend. There was a break-up, or something happened, and she moved out. Her co-workers/work-related friends (bouncers, maybe, or football players, or something else large and imposing) came over to help her pack (uninvited, I think?), and took everything. I think I remember that they even took, like, toilet paper and lightbulbs. I can't remember how it ended.

Web searching takes me to references to the story, but none of the attributions go anywhere.

I once had a computer when I was a kid and before you were able to use it for the first time you had to move your mouse through this challenge of some kind.

I remember getting frustrated because sometimes the computer would reset itself and I'd have to do this dumb "game" before I could use it.


IIRC it was a monochrome display with green? This was in the 90s but I was poor so who knows how old the computer was?

Is this a false memory or does this ring a bell for anyone?

I don’t know about green, but I remember the first Macintosh had a black and white tutorial that would teach you how to use a mouse. Maybe that?

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.
I've posted about this one before, I think, but I thought of it again.

A video from circa '04-'05, of a college kid allegedly tripping on salvia. The guy is having a strange trip - he seems more like he's smoked too much weed than anything hallucinogenic, but perhaps both are in his system. He keeps stumbling around the room, laughing at the cameraman, insulting him, and - this is the interesting bit - talking about NetHack. In particular I remember him saying to the cameraman, "You're the weakest loving class in NetHack," or something like that.

I don't know why it is that I want to see this again so badly. It's almost certainly a poo poo, unfunny video.

fake edit: a google turns up this page which has a post that references it, but has just a dead google video link. You can ctrl+f "weakest" and see it; the rest of the quoted text sounds familiar, too.

double fake edit: this page is, I think, what I'm looking for, but of course the video is not archived. I kinda doubt it's available on the internet anymore, but if anyone has any sleuthing skills that I lack, I welcome you to try finding it.
