Site search is wonky as can be, but thankfully, there's this thread. I'm trying to look up Lowtax' presentation at a U.S. University on Internet usergroups and SomethingAwful by extension. I recall one slide in particular: 'if you like horses, you'll love this presentation'.

I'm looking for a load of MOD files that were distributed on a PC Format coverdisk sometime in 1996 (UK) I think they were distributed with FastTracker and I assume they ended up on the net somewhere I remember really liking one of the songs, but don't have any clue what it was!

Three Different People posted:Unintended Consequences Thanks! That was the book I was looking for. My other request: Anyone remember the thread where the OP had this huge story about how he worked for a Texas oil company and was assigned to entertain a Saudi prince and they did poo poo like gently caress strippers and he had to come up with a plan for how to build an underwater city like Bioshock or the prince would be pissed? That thing was hilarious, anyone know what I'm talking about?

Okay, my wife and I are desperate to find something I believe the collective goon power can help us find! On late night TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network)there are these shows, or made for TV movies where Jesus is in our modern day America helping average people. They all usually end up getting really creepy. There are only two episodes (or movies) I can remember. The first involves Jesus having a conversation with someone on a plane. During the course of the flight they talk all about love, life and religion and at the end of the movie the passenger Jesus was talking to realizes that s/he might have been talking to THE RISEN LORD AND SAVIOR! There is another one where a town is outlawing Christmas or something, and there is a pastor of a church that is trying to build some kind of manger on their property. Jesus comes in to help (claiming to be a homeless drifter) and at one point is asked to take a little girl to the shed to get some tools.  I have tried my google-fu with some of the following search terms to no avail: - creepy Jesus - Modern Day Jesus TBN movie - Modern Day Jesus TBN show - Creepy TBN Jesus And some other variations. I MUST find this and be able to re-watch it in my living room with the company of others. Please, help my wife and I find Jesus (and laugh at his expense). Edit: Found one of them, "The Perfect Stranger" http://www.christiancinema.com/catalog/newsdesk_info.php?newsdesk_id=341 But I'm still not finding the other and now doubt that the two are in any way related. Edit 2: Found the other (was linked to in the first edit) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTgzRMgQ_4g&feature=related Watch this, it's rad! Edit 3: gently caress, sorry for all the edits, but thought some goons might actually want to buy this as an awesome gift for someone some day. http://www.christiancinema.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=2191 Winkle-Daddy fucked around with this message at 03:20 on Sep 3, 2010 |

Ever since the first page we've been talking about "Prit Stik", a band of horrifying, Lovecraftian proportions - what I mean is they're terrible to listen to, mostly because their only album was recorded when they were around ten or eleven. A decade after they recorded the album, one of the two members uploaded their old work to the past iteration of mp3.com, where they became notorious as Worst Musicians. Their most famous song is titled "Prit Stik" as well, and there are a couple of videos on YouTube where someone has uploaded the mp3s and explained the story. The band vanished forever. I'm not gonna say that they came back after another decade and talked about their stuff more (although that would be appropriate), that didn't happen. But I will say that a new chapter has opened in the saga of the Worst Band in the World. Welp, anyway, I found their whole album. I don't know if I should post it up here - it was like twenty years ago and it's literally impossible for the band to make any more money off of it now, if they even remembered, but still. Is it cool to put up a link? Does anyone even want it?

I have searched long and hard for this but have not been able to find it: it is a driver's ed video from the 70s, in which the driver is in a large van and honks at everyone he sees. If he sees a pedestrian, he honks. If he sees a stop sign, he honks. It is the most ridiculous video I have ever seen, and I wish I could see it again.

I've been looking for a short film forever, and no search string seems to bring it up. It was a video created by the Southpark guys, I think before Southpark. I can't remember how it starts, but it ends up with a guy in bed with his wife receiving a blow job. Its taking ages and the wife is complaining, and then eventually when he comes he blows the back of her head off. It should be easy to find this, but try as a I might I can't. I'm starting to think I dreamed it now.

Not really that long ago, but here it goes anyway... There was a thread a few years back about a video interview on (I think) BBC studios. The guy they interviewed was not who they expected but a guy who was there for a job interview. He expertly bullshat his way through it, and it was hilarious. Highlights include the face he makes when he realizes he's not where he's supposed to be. Some goon has this as an avatar.

Princess Hears a Strange Noise? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_(Flash_series) quote:Princess is awakened by a strange squishing sound. It is a man being manually masturbated by his wife. She is unsuccessful in bringing him to orgasm because he has taken a large dosage of Viagra. After three hours of sexual activity the woman begins performing fellatio. When the fellatio is unsuccessful he plays a porn movie on the television. When the porn movie is unsuccessful he changes the channel and reaches orgasm. The force from the hours of sexual activity causes the semen to fly right through her head, killing her in the process. The episode ends with the semen-covered dog sneezing as the man asks her "What are we going to do?".  http://www.meehawl.com/Flash/Princess/Princess1.html !

Back in Driver's Ed, I seem to recall seeing the same movie. I thought it was a little earlier - late 50s, early 60s, and it was produced by Ford, IIRC. In it, the driver gave what he called a 'friendly tap of the horn' to everything. Backing out? Horn. Crossing the street? Horn. Pulling out of a parking lot? Horn. Horn horn horn horn horn. It would make a wonderful drinking game.

I'm looking for this comic book type story that someone posted on here a long time ago. It was either that they made it a long time ago when they were a child or they found it somewhere, but either way it was made by a young kid who was very precocious for his age. It was about some kind of future where this Akira-esque thing engulfs the entire planet and I think it may have had apocalypse in the title. I just recall a lot of red used as there was massive amounts of blood and gore and violence. It was pretty entertaining and the kid definitely had some artistic as well as storytelling ability.

You want "Bio-Apocalypse", by THE HORSES rear end. It's honestly one of my favorite books. The old man in Paris is one of the best characters I've ever seen.

^^^^ speaking of random Japanese tomfoolery, just tonight I was trying to show my nieces this series of cute little web cartoons about a polar bear wearing a watermelon on its head, but I failed. All I can remember is that its name started with an 'M' and it lived in a freezer where it had frozen vegetables for friends. I did find a Korean web cartoon about a polar bear, but its name starts with a 'G', it does not have a watermelon on its head, and it does not live in a freezer, so I can only throw myself upon the mercy of the goons with better memories.

I'm looking for a website from roughly 4-5 years back, I don't think it was every some big "lol internet" deal though, but hopefully someone remembers. It was a website by some dude, and it was like "myboyjoey.com" or some poo poo, and he's all going on about how his little boy sure is rambunctious and keeps him up till all hours of the night with his running around and jumping on furniture. Oh, and yeah, his little boy DIED TWO YEARS AGO or some poo poo. I don't believe in the supernatural at all, but it was a pretty cool concept. It had a few pics and vids taken in night-vision that were supposedly of Joey's ghosts running around the house at night. Like I said, I don't believe in this poo poo, but it was kinda creepy when the big reveal happened that they boy was dead and was just generally a creepy website in general. Man, oh man, I hope SOME goon out there remembers this poo poo.

I'm looking for a an old flash cartoon from years and years ago. It starts off with some kid at school and he needs to write a paper on what he did over the summer. He starts daydreaming that he saved an airplane with a space shuttle on top of it from terrorists and he lands the space shuttle in front of a school that only has hot girls who like astronauts. It plays Blur - Song 2 and then cuts out and he is back in class with everyone staring at him and he writes "Nothing" on his paper.

ETA: finished reading through an old thread on Snopes, turns out the videos were made by a company who specialized in viral marketing and the site had actually been around since 2000. http://msgboard.snopes.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=43;t=001114;p=1 is the thread in question, and it's got links to other creepy places if you're interested, although I haven't clicked on any yet.

Oh wow ... we watched this exact video in my driver's ed class in high school. I swear the teacher picked out the most ridiculous videos on purpose to gently caress with us. He would also turn up the sound at any crash or really loud part. It was a defensive driving video for the Smith System, and the guy (Harold Smith) always said he was giving a "friendly tap of the horn" basically whenever he would see anyone or anything. I was able to find many references to it on the internet, but not the film itself unfortunately. I remember thinking it was so hilarious. I couldn't even find exactly what it was called. One person claimed "Honking Isn't So Bad" but there's also a film called "The Smith System of No-Accident Driving" that could be it.
