I used to go with an ex of mine into Sephora. In the men's fragrance's section they had this cologne in a green bottle. When sprayed this stuff smell JUST LIKE fresh cut grass. As in you just got in from cutting the lawn. I thought it was hilarious and didn't buy it at the time. But once they stopped carrying now I want a bottle because I feel like no one would believe a fragrance company made this scent. But now I can't find it. This was circa 2010-2013. I've gotten Un Jardin Sur Le Toit by Hermes and that's not it. Any clues? Coredump fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Mar 22, 2022 |

Ok, I was annoyed at first but responding to requests for a higher quality image by taking a phone photo of a higher res screen is pretty great, well done.

Calvin Klein - Truth for Men? Oh, what about a Lacoste one? Lacoste Essential is pretty grassy-herbal, and even "Eau de Lacoste L.12.12. Green" could generate those vibes, too. Minimally green: I think some Sephoras used to carry Demeter fragrances at one point? We could be talking Grass, Pruning Shears, etc.

Looks like The New XXXX Terror to me e: ok that pastebin only had The New Complete Terrorist, whish isn't it But it could be The New Bull Terrier? Having said that, the cover looks nothing alike, so unless there was a different edition that probably isn't it Do they sometimes use prop books that don't exist or have real titles, to avoid inadvertant placement, or is that just for brands?

Ichabod Sexbeast posted:Looks like The New XXXX Terror to me It's possible but it's not like the book receives any significant time on screen, it's less than five seconds and he's not even holding it. So I doubt they'd go through the effort for this particular scene.

here's a crop of the frame from a 1080 BR rip here's that same crop blown up 4x and cropped a little further I found 2k rips of the later seasons, but not the first season ironically, the photograph might be the better source to work from, it's brighter at least

I know I can't be right, but I don't think the second word is 'new'. The only reason I say this is that even with the perspective the word below THE seems longer than 3 letters. I want to almost say it's MENS or NEWS. edit: Straightened out cover looks like a fiery sun or ball of flame. If so, it ties into the title?

That's 100% it. I was convinced for a while it was "The New Revolution" split up over multiple lines, but I didn't think of trying "revolutionaries."

so here's one that's been bugging me for a bit there's not really a more individualized thread to take this to, even in the music forums, because I'm trying to find a specific photo of a group - or at least one that matches what I remember so I had a stack of issues of keyboard magazine back in the day, pinched from an ignored cabinet in my high school's band room - being a prog rock nerd, this was extremely good poo poo but the thing that's stuck in my memory lately was something I stumbled across in one of the issues: the magazine's article that went "what's with this craaaaaaaazy new industrial music?!?" specifically, a photo of one of the groups described where they're both wearing one of the goofiest outfits I've ever seen. It was a photo of two guys facing each other, racks of keyboards between them, and they're wearing motorcycle helmets - the sort where you can lift the entire front half up. So they're both in these half-lifted motorcycle helmets and wearing like...spandex bike shorts? the helmets are a definite, the shorts I may be cross-pollinating from, like, jesus jones or something I initially thought it was front 242. no dice. googled around for FLA, die krupps, nitzer ebb, all the sorts of bands from the period that it might be so if anyone can track down this dork-rear end photo or at least sort out who I was thinking of, that'd be great

Was it literally titled "Keyboard Magazine" and can you narrow down when it would have been published?

yes and probably 1990-95 e: actually, it may be this 1989 issue I've just encountered while doing some more searching ee: that is to say, I encountered it online, this isn't my photo, I can't just open it and look inside hexwren fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Mar 23, 2022 |

There was a board game I had as a child that I have never been able to find: - it was probably meant for older kids and educational - I bought it in western Canada in the early 90s - I believe it was similar to cranium in that there were different types of challenge (trivia, charades, Pictionary, maaaaybe clay molding?, etc.) - the game had some kind of cartoon character mascot team. I feel like they were either alien or microorganism type things. They were called The _____s. I think it may have been The Wits. Something to do with intelligence or cunning. I think they each had a specialty related to the game, like the nerdy scientist "Wit" was involved with the trivia aspect of the game
