This isn't "lost", in that I know what it is, but I haven't been able to find a clip of it for years. It's a sketch from the Cambridge Footlights Revue 1982, where Stephen Fry and Emma Thompson are doing a parody of Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning in appalling accents. He asks her "Take my hand and walk with me to the window!" "But I am so desperately afraid..." "You must be straeung for me. Be straeung for me, Elizabeth." "Oh, but I am so desperately weak..."

ET: "You mustn't speak so about him. Deddy is good and kind and fine..."
SF: "But you're not going to marry Deddy, you're going to marry me!"

I don't own this DVD, but here's more strong evidence that it's an accurate lead: http://web.archive.org/web/20160405163236/http://www.dvdverdict.com/reviews/fryandlaurie1and2.php

The defunct but awesome DVD Verdict posted:

The second disc includes a 1982 television program on the Cambridge Footlights ensemble, the famous university comedy review. [...] the show is really a showcase for the 1981 ensemble: Fry, Laurie, [...] and Emma Thompson.

It doesn't mention the Brownings, though it does list a Shakespearean acting class and maybe the reviewer misidentified it. But as a grain of salt: the review mentions that it's actually 10 minutes shorter than claimed, and that could be an oversight or poor estimate, or perhaps there was a last-minute removal of exactly what you were looking for. If a library near you has it to try first, or if you can find an indulgent smalltime ebay seller who'll look for you, it might put your mind at ease.

I've been searching for this for probably six months now to no avail, but it's worth one more shot.

Trying desperately to find a music video featuring a bunch of adults arriving to a dance-off competition, where there are armed soldiers and a evil James bond looking villain viewing. Two people dance off and the loser is then executed. The main character is an Asian woman. It's probably less than five years old.

I don't remember anything about the music itself, it was probably electronic though. Went on a drunk youtube rabbit hole ages ago, and if my gf didn't remember it too I would assume I made it up.

Hmm, I've got the complete series DVD set. Doesn't say anything about extras, but there's a decent chance it's exactly the same DVD as a solo series 2 release in there. I can check, but feel free to remind me if I haven't reported back in a day or two.

Not exactly a white whale but something I came across recently that I’m having trouble finding again.

Apparently there is a sex toy that converts the sound made by electric guitars or drums or something into vibrational gently caress-stimulation. Like a sybian/dildo/Lovense but with music. I don’t remember what it’s called except that it has a rhyming name, and I think there’s clips of it on xvideos.

Does anyone know what I’m talking about here?

A quick search shows that various models by OhMiBod have this feature: Esca2, Club Vibe, NaughtiBod, Freestyle, etc. No rhyming names, though... (Unless you mean the OhMiBod NaughtiBod ?)
There's also the LELO Siri (& Siri 2), We-Vibe Chorus, etc. etc.

Are we allowed to request people search? There was a post that had a picture of some bay/waterway in new england and the poster was reminiscing about boating on a "catboat" which was a term I'd never heard before so it should be easy to find if you search for it. It was a nice picture. I figured it was the americana thread but I've given it a once over and no dice

It looks like the bot had an issue during archival, so it wasn't actually "saved". However it appears it's contained with a 25gb archive of a separate scrape that someone else did and uploaded.

Grab either the torrent, or the 'web archive gz', and unpack. I'm not sure if the naming scheme will be retained or not, but I guess you'll find out when it's down downloading.
It should be in that one, but I'm not 100% certain, and I apologize if I am incorrect.

Before I end up probably doxxing myself with the software name (because few companies are dumb enough to keep using it): any recommended resources to try and track down old (80s-90s) software documentation?

Well, first thing I did was see what kind of error was served up for the initial link, then started poking around and came across a thing talking about how the scrape failed, but that someone else did a series of scrapes an had uploaded them, so the content was saved despite the first bot failing.

I'm sorry that one wasn't right, 25gb is a waste of time and bandwidth. Unfortunately, it doesn't get any better because thats pretty much what the size of all 119 of them are.
I couldn't download the file to check for or remove the mp3 for you because I live in a remote location and I don't exactly have stable or fast net at my disposal.

*Edit: hold off on downloading anything, I have something I want to try checking to see if I can narrow down which one might have it a little better.
goui is the unique identifier, and there is a hit for 2052, but i need to test the theory.
