i will not be accepting questions at this time

Will you accept a trip to the Northern Europe? We will show you such things as Northern lights, reindeer sleight runs, visit to the Santa's workshop, and finally the mass grave we put all the people who think that the Mouse or the Gray Rabbit is the better one.

For the Daffy Duck people we offer a nice re-education camp. Although that is mostly just getting gently caress-all blind drunk. Because you are OK.

I loved this movie as a kid, its very much 100% just kid wish fulfillment.

I especially remember a few things: the part where he eats ice cream out of a trash can in a limo, the swivel chair gaming rig he had with like 30 CRT TVs hooked up, and having a slide in his house which exits into the pool.

I wanted all of those things. I guess I still do.

We've got one! It's been lying fallow for a couple of weeks, so if you want to resurrect it with an effortpost, by all means do.

I think it fell prey to the uniquely PYF illness of too many YT links and not enough commentary.

I've seen lists like "top one hit wonders of the 80s" that are nothing but New Order, depeche mode, the smiths, the cure, souxsie and the banshees, becuase they only ever had one no 1 single, even though they produced hits and well selling albums for years, even if they never had another no 1. No a one hit wonder if someone who comes out, had a HUGE MASSIVE HIT and the just never lives up to it. Imagine if Lady Gaga came out with Just Dance and then Poker Face just utterly failed. I'd also put the cavet of One Hit Wonder in your county, because I'd love to know what stuff that were huge in the US were one in the UK, i know Rage Against the Machine did that. And Blur was huge in the UK and the US only ever had Song 2 I think be a hit? If I remember Boys and Girls charted pretty high in Canada.

Technically even Rush is a "one hit wonder." "New World Man" is the only Top 40 hit they ever had despite being one of the most famous rock bands in history.

Probably not. He was extraordinarily popular and highly paid, but died only a few weeks after he headlined the Isle of Wight festival. He's famous not just because of his playing, but because he died at the peak of his career immediately after becoming famous. By comparison, Rush was around for about 40 years before Neil Peart and Alex Lifeson's health issues forced a retirement and they're one of the most famous bands in rock history with only a single Top 40 hit.

And the fact that it’s New World Man (Which I think only peaked in the mid-20s) is kinda funny too, considering they have a bunch of other songs that are far better known and recognizable (Tom Sawyer and The Spirit of Radio being the biggest examples).

Time to find a way to get The Fountain of Lamneth to the top of the charts!
