Movie/Show on TV. Early 2000s or late 90s. Guy is in his tighty whities on a bed, flexing his butt in a funny way to make a woman in the room laugh. The scene then escalates to this guy hitting her with what I remember is a 2X4 asking, "Why'd you make me do it?" This scarred me and I need to put it to rest.

Vintage childrens book as keywords got me closer but no hits. Books.google pulled up a book by Juliet Mozley. Googled that name + title and voila.

Churchill posted:Can't remember if it was from the forums or just linked from here, but I'm trying to find a post where someone's advice on how to make friends at work was to create an exclusive happy hour e-mail list, controlling who went on it and also having it at a different venue each time thus ensuring noone could just show up without being on the list. Apart from being the MO of a psychopath it was also super creepy since part of why it was such a "great" idea was that he'd make sure there were an equal amount of men and women on the list ostensibly to keep the ratio balanced but in reality it was all about skewing the odds in his favour. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Feeling left out at work, friend?

Late 90's - mid 200's TV show. It didn't run that long, but it ran somewhere in there. It follows a young guitarist/singer and who i remember to be his manager? Maybe agent? Record label rep? No idea. But I'm remembering the young guitarist to be John Mayer, and that's totally wrong. Pretty sure it was on Network television, and isn't Vinyl, Instant Star, or I'm With the Band. I can picture the manager actor, but he's b or c-list so hard to find. Dark hair, kind of a everyman/straight character who always does the same thing and was always in stuff but never mega famous. Any ideas?

I used to have all of them on a floppy, including the one that was (cannot recall the name) like violent or bloody or so? I loved every one of them, but lost the disks back around Win98 SE when I got done with my 27” CRT. They aren’t exactly hard to find, but finding them for Win10 -64 Pro is impossible for me. Yeah yeah yeah this is the good poo poo.

A scene from late 90s/early 00s TBS Superstation or other daytime movie TV. A guy is in his tighty whities on a (hotel?) bed, flexing his butt in weird ways to make the woman with him laugh. I think he says, "And here's the cockeyed!" *FLEX* Out of nowhere, he smacks the woman with a 2x4 board and says, "Why'd you make me do it?" This was jarring to see, and I was too young to understand what was going on. Please, white whale thread, I'd like to understand.

fritz posted:If somebody with better eyes has a guess as to the distribution of letters, I'll produce more lists. ISFDB should have covers for these things too, and if nobody comes up with anything better I'll see if I can wrangle something there. My impression is one word, 5-8 letters. I'm thinking wide, stylized fonts. Sorting by first letters like C & O, potentially a stylized G or T. Some horror books published by Coronet have the look I have in mind, but can't find a match!

Fantasy MMORPG between 2003 - 2009. Not AdventureQuest, Everquest or Runescape, but Everquest-ish graphics. F2P, but you could subscribe. Was NOT buy to play. Could have been in a browser. There was a loading screen right away with some acoustic guitar that was awesome. Early on, there was a snowy zone where I believe you could farm werewolves near a lake. Definitely snow, not sure on the werewolves part. I played on a lovely dell PC. I believe it was $30ish/month because I remember asking parents for the money. I've dug through every list and I can't find it. I'm really just looking for the plucked acoustic guitar song.

There’s huge media infrastructure churning this poo poo out, and it’s totally hidden unless you’re fundamentalist and subscribe to PureFlix or whatever. But holy hell that’s wild. The bad boy reading scripture, the injured soldier standing up and saluting at the end and the flag taking Baby Jesus’ place. Christploitation indeed.

Also I'm still not over Christploitation. That loving rules. What a name.

An image of a promotional pamphlet for the 2006 movie "Accepted," encouraging application to South Harmon Institute of Technology. It came with my CCS catalog, which makes me think it shared a mailing list. Inside where juvenile puns on various classes like "woodworking." I can't find evidence of it online, but I for sure received one in the mail.

The October 3, 2011 episode of MTV's Stand In. Trey Parker and Matt Stone visit an NYU class, dishing some ok writing advice. It's a neat time capsule of 2011 NYU students, as well. I've found MTV's page on the Internet Archive, but the full episode itself has been difficult to track down.

Probably not it, but I got to rediscover a great album today! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zm1rF55IvA&pp
