My wife got me that hard rear end CHOA book, Badlands of Hark, for my birthday. Thinner than I remember. I died on my first choice. Good times.

RTS game where everyone was in subs and one of the factions was silicon based aliens. This was probably late 90's early 2000's when it was released, I don't remember the game name and wonder if it would run on a modern PC or could be downloaded anywhere.

Looks like there's some YouTube videos of it running in Win10, etc.

Linux Pirate posted:It's a long shot, almost impossible I'd say. But if someone could help me find this poster for purchase I would give you all my pogs It looks like at least 2 have sold on ebay since 2017. One sold for $20 + $5 shipping. I can't find the cost of the other, but I didn't look that hard. The poster is #3540, and it's from 1974. I would suggest searching for something like "3540 poster 1974," or "vintage skeleton toilet poster," or some combination of those keywords. You can set ebay to send you a message anytime something shows up under one of your saved searches. It might take a day, it might take a year, but I bet one will show up eventually. There might even be one on there now if you look hard enough with different combinations of keywords. Try etsy too. People sell weird poo poo on there, not just crafts they made. Good luck! I hope you find it.

Holy poo poo you are a legend among goons. Your sage knowledge of the arcane arts of 50's, 60's, 70's, and onward printed media is appreciated in words I cannot adequately express. I honestly thought this would be glossed over. And I know it sounds like I'm kissing rear end at this point, but your threads always rule.

Lol, no problem. I like searching for odd, obscure stuff. I looked a bit more, and one sold for $32 or so (including shipping) on June 29th. I'd post a picture, but it's a pain in the rear end to do on my phone. I think it might be a Grateful Dead poster, so maybe try that as a keyword. Or " ya gotta go" in quotes. Also, it was made by a company called Dargis, so maybe try that. EDIT while I have my laptop on: Here is the most recent (sold, unfortunately) ebay listing I was talking about :  And here is the fine print, which has details that should help with searching for that poster:

I've been trying to ID a song for nearly two decades and I haven't had any luck because it is literally impossible to search for it. I remember hearing it on the radio when I was in high school around 2001-2002. It was a sort of electronic sounding song with a beat and synths and there was a sampled voice-over that played through it. The voice-over was clips from what sounded like a 1950's PSA talking about "The Object." It was a man's voice, instructing the listener to "examine The Object" or "place The Object in front of you" or similar phrases. I remember it sort of being in the style of Baz Luhrmann's "Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen" and it's very similar to "The Nozzle" bit from Venture Bros. I'm probably not describing it perfectly, but "The Object" was repeated throughout the song. It's probably not as great as I remember, but a friend and I used to joke about it and trying to find it has been driving me nuts.

Lindy Hopscotch posted:I got another one for you goons: How humanoid would you say they were in terms of proportions? This is a bit of a stretch but the first thing this made me think of was an animated movie based on David Copperfield (the book, not the magician) from the 90s starring Julian Lennon and Sheena Easton. I don't remember if anybody died, and I don't think there was a boat, but the era's about right and there was a lot of stuff going on that was pretty dark by kids' entertainment standards, like child slavery.

Im looking for a childrens short story I would listen to on cassette when I was little, around October. It features a kid (or maybe a couple of kids?) who investigate the neighborhoods notorious haunted house, get thoroughly spooked by weirdness, and then discover that its actually just the cover for an intergalactic travel hub. A friendly alien walks them through the place, shows them how all the phenomena theyve experienced are just illusions designed to keep nosy humans away, and basically gives them a tour of a spaceport. I vaguely remember a scene where theyre at a restaurant or bar, and if memory serves, the kids are drinking a weird alien concoction that is a bunch of different flavors that changes as you drink it, which sounded like the coolest thing ever to six-year-old me. Does anyone else remember this thing, or have the vaguest idea what it might be called? Kestral fucked around with this message at 01:43 on Sep 7, 2019 |

There was an episode where I swear I heard old school happy hardcore playing in the background of that show, and I don't think I'll ever be able find it, let alone find out what that tune was.  It was the most out of place thing ever.

I've been looking for this one for a few years. It was an image of Kevin Eubanks from The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. It's just his face with "THAS COLD, JAY" written under it but the reason it was so funny to me is it was made to look like a Gameboy Color game. Nothing that I google brings it up but it used to get posted here a lot a good decade ago.

This Jimi Hendrix poster, by Naja Conrad-Hansen: They're all sold out. I occasionally check ebay, where I did find a couple rare prints, but it hasn't come up in 2 years. This poster looks like how his music sounds. I always imagined that the sound sorta just boils off his skin.

I lately remembered a game that I played when I was a kid, late 90s to early 2000s. It probably came on a PC Gamer sampler CD with coconut monkey. Game was a futuristic rts-like, but kinda also like simcity. You were building your city on this grid, and you had to assign workers to build things or work in the research labs or whatever. You could play as a few different races - human, and the only other one I remember clearly were these big orange bipedal scorpions with some uncreative name like Scorpios or something. Your base could get attacked by competing civilizations and you would have to have defenses.

There was a thread on the forums ages ago about a nerdy kid's rap website where he posted a video for his song "Rap Attack" where the hook was "It's a Rap Attack" I will probably never see the video again unless it has shown up in "cringe compilation" videos that I will never watch and I am ok with that.

There's a one pager comic that's just 2 baseball announcers commenting a game that's just pure nonsense. One of the lines is something like "That's a beedlebaydeeble" after a home run is hit.

A candy that I had as a kid (in the 90's but I don't know if it's necessarily 90's specific). It came in like a plastic spaceship or something and it was an orange paste and it tasted terrible. Also this was in the USA and maybe a liquor store, maybe a gas station. I remember my dad told me it wasn't going to be good and I didn't believe him and went with it as my candy choice anyway.

what's that really well known epic choral song where you have the chorus that says the same thing (prob in Latin, there's four words dun-dun-dun-dun) over and over but they get louder over time, from a whisper to the point at which they are practically yelling? and then there's a huge orchestral ending.

Video of Tony Robinson's: Odysseus The Greatest Hero of Them All. There is an audio book version of it, but he did a video version as well in the 1980s on a British kids TV show. I think they're impossible to find now unless you actually taped it off the television back when it was broadcast. The BBC doesn't have it.
