My 4th and 5th grade teacher.
I want to thank her for the effort she put in and helped get me on the right path in life. I've tried contacting the district, the school, but I never get a response back. I fear she may have passed away.
Idk if you can, have tried googling the years you were at that school plus the school name? The district might have it archived or another student has a yearbook, have you talked to any former classmates? I know it only elementry, but I still see former 6th grade classmates on Facebook.

I moved a lot growing up so I don't remember many of my classmates full names.
I tried looking up the school year but this was in the 90's, can't seem to find digital records online anywhere for the school.
Try the states dept of education website, usually they have a license lookup and you can see what district they are teaching in, and when they last renewed.

I could kiss you...! I was able to find her and tracked her down to her new school through this!
AMAZING! I've been trying to find a teacher I had in grade school for years but was never able to. I got in touch with the school board last night, and they forwarded my email to her and she just replied. Don't know why I never thought of that, but thanks so much!
Even if you can't find her, she found you when you needed it. Consider paying it forward, and help someone else who reminds you of little you. If you can't thank her in person, thank her by helping someone else who is in 4th or 5th grade who is struggling with whatever you were.
On a related note, I heard a speaker one time talking about how people are only masters of something when they have "grandchildren" in it: if you've taught someone well enough that they teach someone else (a "grandchild"), that's when you can feel fulfilled as a mentor.
Go to The Web Archive and type in your school's website. The Archive will pull any date the website was online for you, so you can look at the staffing page.
Ok, so I found mine by checking Whitepages, you can do a person lookup on it and it will give you their address along with their home phone, so long as you can assume they lived near where you went to school and you can assume their age.

I'm still missing one quarter from my fifty states collection.
EDIT: So I made a mistake. Thank you so much, especially u/frexels, for trying to track down a Nebraska quarter for me but I was mistaken about which quarter I needed. When I posted my first reply I was about 60% sure I needed Nebraska and the post didn't have many upvotes yet so I figured it wouldn't matter too much. Upon closer examination of my collection I actually need a Utah, Denver mint quarter. whoops.

I used to collect them with my grandparents by going through my grandpas large jars of coins. By large I mean a couple thousand dollars worth. It only took us a day to find all of them and put them in a little book which had each state and a hole for the quarter.
Are you sure it's that much worth of coins? Assuming it's all quarters and it's only 2000 dollars that's 181 kg worth of coins

When he passed away we got rid of all of the coins and it was around $950. He always had change from a hotdog place that he ate at everyday. He had a slight hoarding problem so he never went through it and he kept every coin in the house in a jar.
EDIT: Sorry I made a mistake. I actually need the Utah Denver mint quarter. All the thanks in the world to those of you who tried to track down a Nebraska quarter for me.

And that's most likely because you live on the east coast!
There are two major mints of coinage in the United States: the Philadelphia Mint and the Denver Mint, designated by the 'P' and 'D' marks you see on coins. On the east coast, you're see dramatically more 'P' coins, and the opposite on the west coast.
There's also the Sacramento Mint, designated with an 'S'. They mint proof coins: coins that are stamped twice to ensure fine detail and put in collector's sets.

My grandmother collected FOUR sets of the fifty states collection, one for each of us kids (including me). I have mine lying around here somewhere. It took her about 5-10 years to collect all of them. Pretty amazing actually.

About 8 months before my mother died she bought a book for collecting a bunch of different 50c pieces in Australia. She started it and I didn't really do anything with it until a couple of months after she died until I decided to finish it. It now sits in my top drawer of my desk at work. Hold onto that collection, it's always the little things that matter.
Luckily collecting the shield only took a weekend of concentrated effort!

How long have you been collecting? I spent a semester in the states and managed to get 2 sets of all 50, plus D.C., Virgin Islands, Guam etc. In fact, I happened to find one of some Fort today.
I'm missing 22 of them. Not to mention a few of the national park ones.
But I do have a 1963 quarter, which is nice, I think.
AriMaeda ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 05:32:14 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
The quarter is kind of nice. It's made of mostly silver, so it's worth about $3.50 right now in terms of its silver content.
Problem is that melting down currency is illegal, and it's a process that, even if you wanted to, would be very difficult to recoup that value. You'd need the tools to melt it, separate out the silver from the rest of the metals in there, then cast that silver into something salable. And after doing that, you've only got three and a half bucks worth of metal.
I just looked at my collection recently thinking it was complete only to realize my Kansas spot was filled with Kentucky (or maybe the other way around?)
So frustrating!

There was a Yellow Pages commercial from the mid-90's where an older chinese guy is describing, in great detail, to a sketch artist, the appearance of a guy that robbed him.
"He was 6'4", his nose... was definitely broken..."
The sketch artist, busily sketching away, finishes, and with a great dramatic flair, asks "Is THIS the man that robbed you?!"
He turns around his sketch book and it's a stickman with a crudely drawn gun, with a sun and clouds doodled in.
"YOU CAN'T DRAW!"

Haven't found the commercial itself yet, but found this:
yeah, i remember the shirts and i've come across the exact picture as well - that's a good part of the drawing but not all of it! such a good commercial.
The commercial was for the yellow pages in BC Canada, which may have been tied with BCTel, a now nonexistent telecommunications company but I am not at all sure about that.
Kinda reminds me of a scene from family guy. Where a man is describing an asain person and Peter draws this super racist drawing with squinting eyes and a rice hat.
Not really - I've run into a few forums where they've discussed this commercial and how it's no longer available. I do have one last ditch effort - they used to run it very often during Vancouver Canucks (hockey) broadcasts back when it was on the air. If I can find an old VHS recording (or digital equivalent with commercials lol) then I might be able to dig it up. That's the last idea I really have :/

In summer camp my camp councilor used to tell us scary stories at night before lights out. One story in particular scared me to death and I have never been able to find it since.
It was the story of a boy who had headaches. He hated school, he hated his parents, the only things he loved was his hero, the President of the United States, and the nice nurse at school. At night the things in his room would move. The story was just details of things getting progressively worse. At some point he murders his parents off-page and he describes their bodies rotting (mom's lips were blue). The objects keep moving. He gets worse headaches. He can't be safe anywhere. The story ends with him losing his mind, he's trapped in his room, begging for "Mr. President". I remember it ending with the line: "Then everything moved."
It scares me to this day, this story.
EDIT: The story was Moving Night by Nancy Holder. Thanks /u/glider97 .

I used to be a camp counselor. He probably made it up himself or got it from another counselor who did the same.
Basically he is having blackouts and he's the one moving stuff and when he comes to it looks like everything moves suddenly. The story is of a person losing their mind and a glimpse into that horror.
It's just to show his mind deteriorating. They aren't related because he's crazy.

In the sixth gen games it becomes a 1/4096 chance. I got my first shiny while playing Black. It was a Woobat. It really sucked, but I kept it on my team because I'd always sworn to use the first shiny I ever caught. Keep up the search, friend! They are out there.

I had the same thing. Shiny Bidoof. First wild Pokemon I encountered in the game :(
I got a shiny for every beginning rat pokemon. My first was a shiny Zigzagoon, then on a replay of firered I got a shiny Rattata, then later I got a shiny Bidoof (which barely looks different than regular anyway).
Yeah I know that's why I more or less put the old games as with horde battles a 1/4096 chance becomes 1/819.2, with the shiny charm that also becomes a 1/409.6 chance. Which while rare isn't that rare and doesn't hold the same meaning as the old 1/8192 chance.
The closest I've ever gotten to that was when I chained back in Gen 4 where I snagged a couple Ponyta and ome Pinsir.

It kind of irritates me that shiny Pokรฉmon are slowly becoming more easy to obtain. Kind of ruins the point of them, since they are supposed to be ridiculously rare.
Same here. Also hate how basically every game has ever legendary in it. Before you had to buy separate games from seperate generations just to get that one legendary. The new games basically give you all the legendarys from each gen.
Tell me about it, I'm 26 and I've played pokemon since I was 10, and in my lifetime my first shiny was a fuckin bidoof. Needless to say I made him my ultimate hm slave.
My first and only shiny was also a Woobat! I didn't think I would be disappointed when I finally got a shiny, but it could have been a lot cooler. It's sitting in a box with all its non-special brothers and sisters now.
Breeding with masuda method and shiny charm becomes 1/600. With a bit of setup it'll give you a 5-6 perfect IV, perfect nature Pokemon with egg moves too, ready to be used in battle maison/competitively.

My first ever was a Shiny Heracross in Pokemon Y, bright pink, and it was female. I caught it, and flipped a shit about it forever until I looked up the odds and discovered that they doubled the chances. Still difficult, but nothing like the old games of my youth. I didn't even know what a shiny was until ruby and sapphire. I didn't even understand that the Red Gyarados from Gold and Silver was a shiny technically.

"Chaining is the act of essentially encountering a certain Pokรฉmon many times in a row using an item called the Pokรฉ Radar. When the Pokรฉ Radar is activated, several patches of grass shake and/or flash, which means Pokรฉmon are hiding there that can be encountered by entering the patch. Chaining can be done in any field of grass in Sinnoh large enough to sustain a successful chain, which turns out to be about a 9 by 9 square of patches. Conveniently, there is a chaining-ready field of grass on nearly every route in the region, allowing for a great variety of Pokรฉmon to encounter, allowing you to chain a great variety of Pokรฉmon."

Had the Red Gyarados as a card, 80hp I believe wasn't great on stats but it was very rare. Traded to someone for this tryrannasaurus looking thing idk, it's been years since grade 1. Worst decision of my childhood.
I've seen two: one was a zubat, which I caught, and the other was a meowth, which was in the hands of a battle tower trainer. The zubat was over 12 years ago, and the meowth was less than a month ago. It was in the same game. I've been playing more or less consistently that entire time.

AriMaeda ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 05:15:32 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
No, they're not in Yellow or Snap.
I think they were rolled out in the second generation (Gold/Silver), and each encounter has a ludicrously low chance of seeing an alternately-colored Pokemonโa shiny Pokemon. The odds are 1 in 9000-ish, and I think those odds also apply to your starters and legendaries.
Not sure about previous generations but in the latest (ORAS) if you complete the national pokรฉdex the professor gives you a "shiny charm" with increases your chances of encountering wild shiny Pokรฉmon by 300%. Of course that still only gives you a 1 in 2,730.6 chance, but better than nothing.
It's also reported that if you chain find specific Pokรฉmon using the DexNav then the chances increase even more, but I haven't seen any concrete evidence of this.
I've caught 2 of them, one was a Meditite one Emerald, i found it immediately after my repel wore off on Victory Road.
My other one was the very 1st Hippopowdon i ever encountered, i had no idea it was shiny until i battled one 3 badges later in the game

In my own games I've come across one shiny - a Druddigon. I freaked out, since I've been playing the games since I was like 10 (24 now). The freaking thing used Dragon Tail first move. I nearly cried.
My fiance is a poke-streamer and has the shiny charm. Twice I've been shiny hunting on his stream and I found a shiny - first was a Zigzagoon (we were hunting for Poochyena) and second was a Tauros.
But I still feel the loss of that Druddigon so hard.
only legit shiny I've seen is a shiny entei in alpha sapphire and the battle lasted so long without me being able to catch it that it ran out of HP and killed itself using struggle.
safe to say tears were shed

I have a full team by now not counting the ones everyone is given like the Dragonite and the Gyrados, but counting the shiny dratini I found on my own. I have two big old barnies.
The first time I ever played Pokemon it was on my friends DS. It was sapphire I think. 10 minutes into the game and I came across a shiny sableye. I asked my friend why he was different colored, and she yelled "holy shit!" And got it with a master ball.
I played that game on and off for so many years after that and I have yet to come across my own shiny Pokemon.
Gen 6 helps alot. I spent a few weeks (8+ hours per day) breeding my shiny Arcanine. His attack, speed, hp, and special defense IVs are perfect and his defense IV is above 20 but not perfect. Adamant with Intimidate. His name is Mr. Sunshine.

My first legitimately caught shiny was the very first Hawlucha I encountered in pokemon y. I'm prety sure it was the second or third pokemon I caught since starting the game as well.
At the time I wasn't paying attention so I missed the sparkle effect. :p
A couple years ago I found a shiny Tentacool in fire red while on my way to the cave where one catches Mewtwo. I didn't know what it was, so I just took my level 90 Venusaur and K.O'd it in one move and continued on my way. Only later did I find out that it was extremely rare.
I got a shiny Wingull and then while I was breeding for competitive Pokemon I got a shiny Bagon and Fletchling. Those three are the ones I've gotten without expecting them.

My first ever shiny was in one of the original games, can't remember which. I'd never heard of shinys at this point in my life, note. It was an Arbok (if I'm remembering correctly), and I remember looking at it and thinking 'what the fuck?', killing it and moving on.

one in 1/4096
double that one with a masuda method (breeding with a pokemon of another state) to 4/4096 this translate again into 1/1024.
my first shiny was a golden geodude in the original silver
later a mesprit with shitty IV
now i have a lot of them.
double again if you have a shiny bell (pokedex complete)
Active shiny hunting is equal parts infuriating and entertaining. I'm sitting on 18 myself - Blastoise, Jynx, Gyarados, Magikarp (seperately from the Gyarados), Sylveon, Vaporeon, Gardevoir, Linoone, Darkrai, Delcatty, Aggron, Starmie, Mawile, Floatzel, Herdier, Mareep, Tranquill, Electivire... next ones I'm after are Noibat and Sneasel.
I have far too much time on my hands and absolutely absurd luck.

Old Blink is nice, but there's no way they can be like that again. So I'll take the Blink we have now. I mean, Tom's middle name IS Matthew, so it's kind of like he never left.

How about citations that are not from social media. Drives me batshit when my local news bitch reads a tweet out load on the air. If social media is intrinsically involved in the story, OK then.
If I am reading a newspaper article on the city budget process, I don't want to read about what people are posting on social media - I will go to social media myself if that's what I want to read.
And while we're at it, can we get rid of mid-article links to other unrelated articles, or flat-out products. Nothing should ever break up the body of an article, except a related picture, video, or citation.

Stay off Buzzfeed and Huffington Post. These "Journalists" make money with ads and clickbait. If I see a website that has the blue product links in the middle of the writing, I don't use that as a credible source for information because their motivation is to make money, not to spread useful information to the populace. I know exactly what you're talking about, and I don't see that shit anymore because I don't go there for info.
My local news station reports tweets about the fucking weather. There are precise instruments used to report the measure in various places. It's clear that they are just using their phone's weather app thing, which is stupid because the weatherman/news station has the exact same information and potentially more.

I think it was an interactive flash game/video on ebaums way back in the early 2000's. It played music and would make different sounds and animations when you clicked on certain things. I think it was all black and white and followed a little man as he floated through some really bizarre stuff. Pretty sure it was a drum heavy beat.
Piggybacking on your comment. It was a cartoon linked on ebaumsworld about ptsd ww2 vets that were homeless and got a war flashback inside of a liquor store??
When I was younger me and my sister found a small patch with a few 4 leaf clovers. There were a few nay sayers but we believed them to be real. (They probably weren't I know). But I'd always love to find a real four-leaf clover.
Edit - I know 4 leaf clovers are real... But I thought that there was a specific 'type' that the 4 leaf ones where a specific lucky version of.. I know what I'm trying to say heheh

It's a fun skill to have! My real life luck is shit but I can find four leaf clovers like crazy, I remember back in high school at one really long track meet my friends didn't believe I could find them so easily. By the end of the meet I had twelve, and that's only because I eventually got bored of looking for more.
You're probably better than others at picking out patterns or seeing through them, I'm not sure which.

You could pick them and leave them around for people. A four- leaf clover someone had laminated into a wallet-sized card fell out of a box at the video rental store once when I was small, and that was pretty awesome.
You could do that and leave them in library books and restaurant benches and make a lot of people smile.

When I was a little kid, my neighbor had a crappy AC unit that alway leaked chemicals on the ground. There was a patch of clover that grew there, and had 5+ leaf clovers pretty regularly. I think the highest we ever found was 7 leaf.
A fan vaporizes it, the cycle goes round and round. There is a pan at the bottom that collects it, but the level doesn't rise more than a few millimeters. ACs don't add cold, they just subtract heat.
You are correct. But there aren't fans that vaporize the condensate water. The water simply drains from the drain pain through a P-trap and then outside or to a central drain line.
You did it wrong then. I am a contractor..they should be installed a half-bubble off level. Do you want water to drip, or not? The pan is part of the frame for a reason.

Ahh, people not understanding how Air Conditioning actually works, right? For the rest of you, they're basically just de-humidifiers with a big fan, and hooked up to your wall. The moisture in the air holds most of the heat, since air is a better thermal insulator than water. The higher the humidity, the higher the potential thermal energy the air can hold onto. AC units extract the moisture from the air and it condenses on the outside parts of the unit. They're supposed to do that. If you've ever seen a de-humidifier, you'd know that they either have a huge bucket-like water tank that you have to empty every so often, or there would be a hose system leading to a drain pipe. This is a pretty basic explanation, so I'm sure there's some finer details glossed over here.
No, no, no. Install a dripping AC, and the property manager will kick you in the ass. If not him, the guy downstairs will. They..should..never..drip. Contractor, 20+ years, no drips here.

I feel like you were also my neighbor... I used to go out with them all the time to the house that had a clover patch. We found tons of clovers with a lot of leaves on them.
I had the same experience as a kid; found a big patch of clover at a logging site my uncle was working on. I had nothing better to do so I started looking for a four-leaf and eventually found 14 of them, plus a few 5 and 6-leaf clovers. They never seemed very special to me after that.
My friend and I in kindergarten found this little patch of what we believed to be, and could've been a different breed of clovers, but there were dozens of clovers with fairly tall stalks (maybe 5"), and upwards to 18 leaves! They looked like you stacked a bunch of 4-7 leaf clovers on top of one another.
All the leaves were in a ring, just like a regular one, but seperated into groups of 4-7 leaves, about 1/2" to 1" apart. It was neat
There was one summer where my brother basically kept pulling them out of his ass. We were camping and he would look down and find one or slip and fall and land next to one. It was insane.
When I was about 6, I was riding my bike on a hill with a narrow path. The front wheel slipped and I wiped out face first and hit hard on my chin. Right directly in front of my eyes 3 inches away was a four leaf clover.
If you try my technique, I'd recommend a helmet and a mouth guard.

My brother collected them untill he got like 30 or so, and then just tossed the bunch to the trash.
There's a dried out four leaf clover in one of my mums old cool books. Her great gran sent it to her in a letter, whenever one of us has an important test or interview she pulls out the book so we can touch the clover for luck.
It's so weird, my ex could find them all the time. Like she probably found 20-30 in the two years we were dating. She could look down at a patch in under 10 seconds and pick it.
Sure, four leaf clovers are real! When I was around 12, I began to find them all the time, for some reason. Usually if you sit down in a clover patch and look for a few minutes you can find one. I had a collection for a while...at least 15 four-leafers, a few five-leafers, and one six-leafer! I don't know what happened to that collection. Maybe I'll begin looking again.
I have a friend who legitimately is really good at finding these consistently. during the sprint/summer she sells them on etsy. I've tried finding them and I couldn't find a single one, but she churns 'em out like nobody's business. she's actually got a 5-leaf clover for sale right now.

I don't know if it has something to do with the specie.....but almost all clovers I've found had four leaves. I live in Costa Rica and maybe we got a different type of clover here.
My mom's ex boyfriend's house had a bunch of clovers in the front yard and we found about 7-10 four leaf clovers. I wish I knew to dry them out before trying to seal them, but I was too young to know better and they rotted in the plastic. I sometimes try to remember where that house is so I might find some more.....

I've found a few. Found one at our regular campsite one time, then next time we were there I was telling someone about it, "It was a fluke, I just looked down at the ground like this, and I spotted it. Haha holy shit, there's one right now! ".

There are 4 leaf clovers in my yard right now. I'd bet you can find one in any patch...
They are very real, I found a small patch of them once when I was little and pressed them in a book I always had with me.
Once I got older and learned they were kind of common mutations it lost the charm a little until I realised that they were mutant plants. Which was cool.
What do you mean they probably weren't real..? I found a few when I was a kid too

Teen Hitchhikers circa '08. She was the banner girl and one of the free sample videos. Brunette, pale, natural Cs, and in the promo pic she's laying sideways with her leg up being screwed. What always got me was how she had her eyes closed, chin up, kinda self-satisfied looking.
The reason I made an account was a TOMP request from 4 years ago. I received 0 comments and could not find what I was looking for. My life has been a list of sad excuses just carry on since.
Well, I, yesterday would have said something like this but last night I finally found this (very obscure) video and it was a glorious moment. Keep searching boys! I believe in you.
If anyone ever finds the video of a women sticking a champagne bottle up another women's ass then has her fart it out all over her face I'll give them an up vote.
It was always the joke porno from back in the day that my friends would make fun of me for having. It was one of those mislabeled videos I had downloaded from Kazaa or something. They were tan women. Somewhat potato quality. It was hilarious so I kept it for a while.
I'll never forget the champagne shooting out all over the place.

Oh I have one of those too. It was one I remember from the days before I really understand porn.. So I searched things like "flash game xxx." I have no idea why but that was my porn for like 3 years. There's one though that I've never found again but damn I really wish I could!
You ever see the one with the blonde chick and it's made to look amateur though I remain skeptical, but she rides the dude and gets off pretty hard (and says so) and they switch positions a couple times and she keeps getting off (and saying so). At one point she sort of laughs and says "give me a second" and the dude pauses for like 1 nanosecond before putting it to her again?
The one where the tiny Asian girl is on the phone with her boyfriend while some black dude with a monster dong is just doing all types of stuff. Then at one point whoever she's talking to asks what she's doing and she says she's eating jack in the box.

A canvas print of "A Portrait of Things to Come" by Marc Davis. It's famously the painting hanging over the bar in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.
The highest resolution image of it I've been able to find online is this one, and I am on the verge of having it printed onto canvas (anyone have any idea how large I could make it before it starts to look low-res?) but would much rather have an officially licensed print.
And it doesn't look like Disney has ever made any available.
The image is 109 dpi and 7200 pixels wide. I converted it to 300 dpi (the bare minimum for printing) and kept the width at 7200. I show an image that you could print at 24 x 14 inches without losing too much quality.
That said, I'm not entirely sure how accurate that is because I think the image might have been "blown up." When I zoom in on it it gets a little blurry, so I think at some point down the line someone took the image and made it bigger, which is causing a drop in quality.
If the long edge is 7200 pixels wide you can print safely at at least 36"x21" really.
It mostly depends on how far away you're going to be looking at it but at that scale you'll really only notice the pixels if you're standing super close to it. If you want to hang it above a bar you have even more freedom. If you're going to hang it in a hall way or something you probably won't be able to get away with blowing it up that much.

Also consider waifu2x. It's a pretty cool neural network that was trained with anime images but should work for most drawings.
You could always hire an artist to recreate it. There was a guy on a tellnotales.yuku.com who did a 3'x5' painting of it that's very close to Davis' original sketch.
I've been looking for one as well. Looked and asked for it for years everytime I went in the art store they had above New Orleans Square. Never saw it.

Hey man, just wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten, but I'm really not having any luck.
I hate calling it quits on shit like this, but I'm honestly beginning to question if there are any mirrors left. This is just a really unfortunate situation with the company.
Yeah, I stopped looking about a week ago. Everything I find is either about WinTab or they say "Got the drivers from the company website, thanks for the help." This is really horrible. Also I had Ubuntu on my XT in a second partition until about a week ago, then I went "Fuck it, it doesn't work anyways" and deleted the downloads folder on that partition. That folder had the W8 x64 drivers in it. I'm still mad about that.
It's about a young girl who apprentices to a glassblower. In this world, there is a sort of magic wherein if a glassblower can make a perfect replica of your eyes out of glass, he can control you. Later, the apprentice finds a town ruled by an evil glass blower who has made slaves out of everyone. I don't really remember more than that, sadly. It's just something that's been bugging me for years.

Pigments are a precious resource in the world, at one point the main character runs out because the villain has stockpiled all the pigments used to make human eyes. Oh, and there are trolls in the series but I don't think they play too large a role. That's pretty much all I have to go on! Good luck, friend. I'm googling the hell out of it right now.
I am completely fascinated at this point, but I still can't find anything. Your memories of it seem too vivid for it to not exist. I'll keep looking, let me know if you find anything- I really want to read it now.

If it's Shazam you're talking about, it doesn't work for humming. It recognizes specific digital patterns in the music that are unique. It's signal processing and more of a feat of mathematical approximation, even though it seems like magic. Human speech and humming are so varied that it would be entirely different to be able to do that.
YES that's the one! But I was wrong, though you could hum a tune and it could do it. Does sound very handy, though.

I've heard it on soft rock stations every so often, but that was before I had Shazam and the radio station has doing a back-to-back, so they didn't stop to announce it. I may have to try /r/tipofmytongue to figure it out sometime.
EDIT: Figured it out, it's Baker Street by Gerry Raferty. Don't know why I couldn't remember the lyrics, but for me the Saxophone stands out so much that it's all I could remember, but I love this song. Makes me wish I had joined band in school so I could have played the Sax.

I'm surprised you replied so late, so I'm going to tag you on RES with "Apollo by Hardwell." Now every time I see you pop up on AskReddit, I'm going to remind you of this song so you never forget again. :P
Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve. My mom used to play it when I was little, but I hadn't heard it in years. Finally, when I was around 15, I heard it in a Krogers. I freaked out and repeated the few lyrics I could remember incessantly until I could get home and google them. What a serendipitous success.

I found mine! It was 99 Quite Bitter Beings by CKY
I also had an anime that I always saw on this one single AMV ages ago and it turned out to be Shamanic Princess
Finding both was so satisfying; never give up taylortob it's worth it if you find it.
I've posted this before to /r/tipofmytongue with no luck. It's basically a creepy Music Video from the mid-00s.
I saw the music video only once around October 2008, possibly on Bravo Canada.
If I remember correctly the music was set to an image of an old fashioned sepia photo. Everything at first appeared normal then the camera would suddenly zoomed to reveal an unsettling detail, such as a monster lurking behind a terrified family. I think it was set near the beginning of the 20th century.

I don't know if this helps, but as a girl I have never once thought badly of someone who has asked me out. I usually feel genuinely bad when I turn someone down and respect them for having the courage to ask. So if you were embarrassed, she probably wasn't. Unless she sucks as a human. If so, who cares.

What do you think is the best thing for a guy to say?
I don't think there's really a winning formula, and I think it depends on the girl. But for me I think I prefer if someone just talks to me as a human being and is genuinely interested in me as a person and not just as a girl. Girls are just people who feel awkward and insecure sometimes, too. But 1) don't be overtly sexual, 2) try not to make a huge deal out of it. Some guy said something on here once that stuck with me -- confidence isn't knowing that they'll like me, it's knowing that I'll be okay whether they like me or not. The second type of confidence is super attractive. Not being arrogant or assuming the girl is going to be totally into you, but being confident enough that she doesn't feel like your emotional stability is resting on her answer.

Way to put it into words. I agree. I have been successful on molly because I approach a girl with genuine curiosity and interest in their lives and I could care less if they walk away or say no. When I'm sober I am so damn nervous because I know I will be so embarrassed if they say no.
Yeah, I get nervous too but I guess I feel like I've come to the point where I'm trying not to care. So what if someone says no? There could be a whole host of reasons that she said no that have absolutely nothing to do with you-- in a relationship, not looking for anything, she feels insecure, etc etc. And even if it does have to do with you, then so what? So one person in the whole world doesn't want to date/hook up with you. All of the positive qualities that you possess still exist. Your life is still going to be fine. And if you're not embarrassed or phased by it, then it won't be weird for anyone and she won't think badly of you at all.

Nah, that is really out of the blue. An easier, much more successful way would be to invite her to a party you would be going to sometime. You can get a vibe for her there, try to hang around her and see if she is in to you. If you can't really tell you can just pop the question and worst case scenario she says no. You wont really care if she says no either because you can just party the bad feelings away after.
Then at the party she starts talking to some really buff guy who seems super chill and you realise that you will never have the guts to ask her an she seems really into this new guy who talks to her so you feel worthless and leave the party alone and goes home to eat icecream and cry while watching porn.
DONT FUCKING MAKE EXCUSES JUST ASK NOW. RIGHT NOW, NOT LATER, NOT TOMORROW. JUST.DO.IT.
ASK HER OUT.
Then do it with ur next girl.
And the girl after that.
And the next one aswell.
Practice makes perfect.

I recommend getting used to rejection, its one of the steps along the way to eliminating the fear of failure. A lot of the time it will be a yes anyway

Just do it. I promise if you ask out 5 different chicks, one of them will say yes and will be down to grab a beer or a coffee with you.
Who cares if you get rejected. You didnt have anything to fuck up to begin with and youll most likely never see them again.
So I went to this school get away with food, airsoft, and wrestling. It was great. Well, we talked about being men and becoming good leaders. One of my friends made the good point that "Hopefully you wouldn't judge a guy by how he looks right?" They also talked about other stuff in the same category.
Ok, she is a human being just like you. Possibly prettier but just think about that. Why would you be scared to talk to a guy? Plus chicks dig confidence.
Even if you think she'll say no, at least know that you don't have a shot. Then you'll stop thinking about her so often. It sucked, but it was a huge relief when I finally asked out this girl I'd had a crush on for the longest time, only to find out that she just wasn't ready for a relationship at the time. I asked her out again, but from what she and what some of our (trustworthy) mutual friends have told me, she felt like I was family based on our experience. It fucking hurt, but at least I can move on knowing that it wasn't just a missed opportunity.
My old pokemon gold that I lost somewhere in my house a long long time ago. And my old Nintendo DS with my brothers pokemon pearl, This game has my swampert, nicknamed MK, from sapphire the first pokemon game I really remember playing and he was the first pokemon I got to 100. I like actually miss that guy.
Similarly, my old GBA, my old GameCube, and my old crappy CRTV, along with my copy of Pokรฉmon Emerald and an old copy of SSBM. I just want to play Melee without HD lag, goddamnit. Luckily I found a crappy CRTV for $5 at a garage sale, so I didn't have to spend ridiculous amount of money on a decent one. It gets the job done, and it feels so much better to play Sega Genesis, NES, and sometimes GC games on it than on an HDTV.
Finding, more specifically. My buddy lost his parents last year both to cancer within a couple months of each other. We took some time off from work together and recreated the trip he took through Europe with his family 15 years prior. It's been pretty difficult finding some of the small B&B'S and boutique hotels that they stayed at during that time, some of which no longer exist. The past 2 months have been some of the most profound, painful months for both of us, but I'm glad we're doing it. He really needed this

Just go to maccas and ask random girls in the line to order. That's what I did and totally got a number to message. Dude may not have been selling cocaine and is now saved in my phone as "this is cocaine" but still
I don't smoke weed anymore (at least not until it is legal), but when I first hit my 30s I wanted to smoke again and it was really easy. Just remember to use escrow. I got burned by some asshole and actually got a refund.
But the crap they sold was..... Crap. I'm an adult with real money now that just want's to get fucked up like once a year. I don't have time for Crap. I remember the E We used to get in college was like 90% speed. I feel like nite I should be able to afford/fine real MDMA. Apparently no.

You just gotta ask the people that interact with all walks of life (mailmen, delivery bros, old ladies). They'll know where to find the "dankest nugs", as my hip, urban friend describes.
How to get a good weed hookup
Step 1 go to the shadiest bar you know of
Step 2 get hella drunk
Step 3 really loudly blurt out "ANYONE WHERE A GUY CAN GET SOME DANK?
Step 4 enjoy your weed and new weed hookup
But weed isn't really a "drug" anymore. If I'm getting fucked up for a weekend of camping or a party with some adult friends I, as a now grown up responsible adult, should be able to get high quality easily accessible drugs. I would think. It's not fair!!!

I meant it as a joke, but I remember my friend saying how he wanted some weed so he stopped, randomly, a fella in front of a pub, asking him whether he has some, he just looked at the road in front of him and waved down a passing motorcycle, went to the driver and started explaining his situation, then the driver took out a giant bag full of weed, gave it to this strange guy and he sold it to my friend. That is Czech Republic for ya.

A friend of mine decided he was just going to go up to people on the street asking for weed until he found some. That lasted for about five minutes before he got enough scorn heaped on him to stop. I guess being treated like a pathetic addict just to get some weed wasn't worth it.

Only happened to me once, when I was on vacation in Prague. Middle of the day, in the same square as the astronomical clock. Literally came up to me and asked if I wanted some marijuana. I was so suprised that I instinctly answered "no".

Do you watch Breaking Bad? We sell the blue stuff :)
Do you live in a city? It should be easy enough to find weed at least if you do. Try hanging out at some bars and chatting up some folks who look like they might get high. Wait til somebody mentions pot, or casually bring it up yourself, and make an offhand comment about how it's been a while for you and you don't even know where to get it these days. Someone will eventually hook you up, especially if they've seen you around before.
No problem dude. Good luck in your quest!! I have been there myself, and it sucks. I spent some time traveling across the US years ago, and I got really good at finding weed in strange towns. I find that most stoners are friendly people and they want to help out as long as they feel they can trust you.
A lot of people bitch about the price of legal weed but I can't complain. I've been forced to do the dealer song and dance for 20 years, I love buying from a store.

I've been searching for a semi-motivational comic I read somewhere, possibly reddit, a few years ago. If I remember right, it is about a wolf, who comes upon some lambs and is planning to kill them (I think) until he discovers their mother has been killed by some hunters. After speaking with the lambs he leaves and then he has a change of heart and the last panel is the wolf deciding to protect the lambs against a hunter with a gun. I only read an English version, but the language made me think it had been originally written in Japanese and translated.
Don't know why I care so much but I found it kind of moving and would like to find it again, if it rings a bell for anyone. Might have messed up some of the details since it's been awhile.

Love this. It's actually a Chinese comic though - or so I assume from the Chinese characters in the illustration.
The Japanese character for sheep, ็พ - ('hitsuji'), is the same as the Chinese word for sheep, ็พ - 'yรกng'. However, here you see a little square next to it - ๅฃ - which gives it away as Chinese (it means 'mouth').
Japanese would be ใกใผใกใผ ('mฤ mฤ') for sheep sounds. Chinese is ๅฉๅฉ ('miฤ miฤ'). In the comic all of the Chinese characters are backwards - I reckon it's probably scanned from a kid's textbook and the English superimposed on the top.
Also, the Chinese character in the 19th panel(่บ - 'dรก') is a traditional character rather than simplified, meaning it's most likely from a textbook in Hong Kong rather than mainland China.
(BTW the character in the first panel means 'knock', and the one in panel 5 means 'cough/cry out'.)

There's an enormous pile of human skulls, set against a dark background. Ominous music is playing, and as you watch, still more skulls tumble into view, each of them falling in slow motion.
I witnessed that when I was about five years old, and to this day, I have absolutely no idea what I was watching. (It was a scene from a television show, I know that much.) Based on the things I was allowed to view at that age, it had to have been from one of the following programs:
Most of those don't seem like they'd include images of disembodied brain-cases tumbling through the air, but I can't rule anything out at this point. Unfortunately, nobody yet has been able to find the clip in question, and I'm beginning to wonder if I hallucinated it. The thing is, I can remember going to find my mother immediately after watching the scene, and asking her what the hell it had been. (She, of course, had absolutely no idea.) That seems like it would have been an odd course of action if I'd simply imagined everything, and for that reason - as well as how vivid it was - I remain convinced that somewhere out in the ether, there's some familiar footage of falling skulls waiting to be found.
TL;DR: I've never been able to find a specific scene of slowly falling skulls.

Yeah but now she's a great friend to you and will be like that for a long time. Most relationships don't last too long, especially if you guys are young.

or you know, she completely avoids you after that. That's what happened :(
Instead of focusing on how you can't get a girlfriend, just focus on being the best single guy you can be, just for the point of having a great single life.
After a couple months, you'll probably meet a cool girl and hit it off- if you spend time trying to make yourself better instead of putting the burden on other people, you will suddenly find yourself much more wanted.

I'm in the opposite situation. I'm looking for a girl that I actually like past a month or two. I always get bored with every girl that likes me, and end up leaving after a little while.
Hopefully someone can help me, as this is kinda serious.
When I was younger, around 10-11? We went camping at a place called Barkcamp, it's in OH. My little sister & I found these two girls to hang out with, they called themselves "Hollywood" and "Ashtray". I figured it was some sort of sister thing for "Holly" and "Ashley", we never got their real names. We played with them for two days, swimming in the lake, sitting by the fire at night while their parents and mine smoked weed and drank and my annoying uncle played guitar really loud until park rangers told him to cut it out. They slept in our tent one night and we decided to have some girl talk. This is where it gets serious.
My sister asked their real names, and was told they weren't allowed to give them out. We thought this was weird, and answered accordingly with "You know ours!", and gave our full birth names. The little one of the two girls says "he might be listening, don't do that", so we turn to the bigger sister hoping to find it was all a scary campfire thing. Nope! Turns out some guy has been trying to kidnap them for years, he always finds them, they have to change their names frequently. The oldest one says they live near this camp, which so do we, and this guy won't leave them alone.
Enter us completely freaking the fuck out, asking how he would know we gave our names, and deciding on nicknames. The littlest says he could hear us somehow, at this point it becomes a fun game, "MY spy name is Rosebud, what's yours?" All night we talk about this guy, he's younger maybe a few years older than us, I'm thinking 16 at this time since he drives, so 5 years older than I am. What kind of car does he drive? A black blazer. That kind of thing. We get desensitized. Eventually, we all say goodnight via our new nicknames and pass out.
Morning comes, I'm awoken to someone screaming bloody murder. I leave the dewey tent and see Hollywood and Ashtray's mom pointing and screaming at the girls that it's time to go, now. A black blazer is creeping towards our little cul-de-sac, and immediately I realize these girls weren't fucking around. They run away, them, their mom & dad, leave their dog behind with us, and we never see them again. We kept the dog, he was mean as shit and hated people, eventually had to put him down for attacking my sister's friend and giving her 32 stitches. I wish it ended there.
I'm 24 now, was at work when I get a message on Facebook, some guy asking if I wanted to make money. I don't know him, I don't answer. He asks me to send him nudes and he'll give me $5K. I ignore him. He sends me 25 messages, I start to get curious.
HE STARTED CALLING ME FUCKING ROSEBUD. I NEED TO FIND THESE GIRLS.
ETA: He also says he's going to meet me in a black blazer to give me the money if I would send him pics. He's been making new accounts to get in touch with me. The cops think it's a made-up story, but it's not. The reason I think they still live near me is my cousin had a un-in with some girls near me, that called themselves Holland and Aspen. They fought my cousin, and filed a police report saying one sister saved the other from kidnappings when she was younger, and that she was protecting her sister. I have screenshots of this. Not making this shit up. I cant find the girls on Facebook, my cousin doesn't know them, this guy IS STILL CONTACTING ME.
No power won't help if you can't look for the girls to find out more info about the guy that's stalking me. And now he's somehow accessed private pics too, which is a huge issue. But the cops keep blowing it off even though this dude has pics of me that were only on my phone and my husband's. Couldn't make the shit up if I tried.
I know a way he might possibly be able to get the pics off your phone, but I'm not completely sure if it's possible because I don't know what's required to set it up. If you have an iPhone, it's possible to hook that phone up with an iMac so that all texts received and sent on the phone go to the computer as well, it can be done with iPads too. But they would need your apple email and log in info I think. Idk that's the first thing that came into my head when I read this. If you texted those photos that might be home he got them
I have a Windows phone and I was using he cloud for storage. I would imagine if he had that information he could access it, so I've stopped using the cloud and now I dont have room on my phone for anything because I don't have an SD card. I really need to get more info about this guy and those girls can provide it. That's why I want to find them.
I need more info from them regarding his description, if he's still bothering them, I would assume if they still live here he's left then alone or they thought he was in jail or something?
I don't have schizophrenia.. Promise lol. I took the proof to them, and they agree that someone is harassing me online, but they don't think it's the guy from before. If someone sends me an SD card I can take the screenshots, but right now I dont have room to save anything on my phone. I only have what's already on here, which is the girl saying she saved her sister from kidnapping when they were younger. I can PM you that and another account the guy has messaged me from, that's all I have on here.
It really sounds like you're experiencing some sort of schizophrenic episode; I'm not trying to be an alarmist or patronizing, or anything of that sort, but the story you've written here really doesn't make much sense, and not in a "It's too much of a longshot to be true" kind of not-making-sense, but more of a "This is a stream of barely related and nonsensical events being presented as a story" kind of not-making-sense.
Who knows, you could just have a quirky writing style and that's fine, but I would think about maybe talking to someone that you deeply trust and honestly ask them what they think about how you're doing. It doesn't hurt just to be sure, you can laugh it off afterwards :)
Im not sure why everyone thinks I'm schizo lol. I'm really not, I've seen psychiatrists for manic depression. Pretty sure they would've picked up on that. I write differently so that makes me schizo?
I didn't go into full detail because it was a comment on a story, not my own story being presented. I need to find these girls to see if they learned anything more about this guy, that's all it is. Because I know this is true, and I know that my sister is freaked out by it too, so much so that she asked me not to have her listed as my sister on FB so the guy wouldn't realize it was her.. I doubt we're both schizo
It's the nature of schizophrenia to not feel anything out of the ordinary, and when you're trying to be sure, you can't rely upon your past memories. I really mean it, it wouldn't hurt to share this story with someone you trust and ask them what they think. Maybe I'm just being overly worried for you, but it really wouldn't hurt to be sure, wouldn't it?
I trust my sister, I trust my parents. They were present for the camping trip. They knew about what happened with those girls. I let my mom log into my Facebook to read the messages, and she called the police station I've been working with to tell them this is a real situation, not something to play around about. My sister called crying asking me to please be careful after she read them.
Do you mind posting the conversations of the guy calling you Rosebud? You don't need an SD card, your phone has internal memory.
We aren't trying to attack you, it just sounds a little off, that's all.
People are mentioning Schizophrenia because it seems like you are creating a story line for two people you may or may not have ever met, and you also mention that someone is following you, which is very common with schizophrenia.
I met them, as I commented below, I let my mom log into my Facebook and read the messages from this guy. She was there for that trip and contacted local police after she read that conversation, telling them that this isn't something im fucking around about. My sister called me crying begging me to be careful. My internal memory is full I would show you that if I could save anything to my phone.. But I can't. So believe me, im not some delusional person my mom was there, my sister was there, they both know what's going on and we all can't be delusional right? Maybe the guy wants to get to the girls, I don't know. All I know is im being harassed and wondering if he knows where I live. I never said anyone was following me, I think the guy remembered my name and saw it on Facebook.
I haven't been getting on much. A good friend of my family was just murdered, by two other good friends of my family. You wanna look that up go ahead. WTOV 9 Murder in Martins Ferry Ohio

If he's been messaging you on Facebook surely you would be able to show the police all those messages? Why don't they believe you?
Me too, but so far no one has shown an interest and I've tried posting it where it will be shown.. Even made my own Ask Reddit about it. Im not a really big commentator on Reddit nor do I have a million karma so that probably means no one gives a shit lol.
Holy shit is they ever creepy, makes you wonder what kind of life that monster has, do you think he was like standing in the bushes listening to you when you were a little girl?
Plot twist....this is actually the guy and he's still looking for the girls.
But seriously, if you aren't the creepy stalker person, it might be best for you to leave them alone so this guy can't force you to tell him where they are.
They could give me insight as to race, any more info they found out about the guy's description, etc. If they're still living around here I would assume he left them alone or they thought he was in jail? Idk, that's why I have so many questions for them haha!
I have screenshots of the guy harassing me from one of his made up accounts, and the girls saying one sister saved the other from kidnapping, but unfortunately I dont have a mini SD card and I need that to take any more as I am out of room on my phone
I actually finally got this a few weeks ago. I've attended national FFA (Future Farmer's of America) convention every year, since Freshman year. In the back of the book, there's a spot to collect signatures, one from every state, and also spaces for Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and occasionally Guam. I've managed to almost completely fill my book out every year. Sometimes I'm missing a few, but usually, i'm just missing one. I was never able to get a signature from Maine. It was killing me. I set up stake-outs, searched constantly, all to no avail.
This year was my senior year, it was my last chance. I walked in, determined to not rest until I had a signature from Maine.... and off I went. I was wandering the halls of the sales booths, when I saw it. It was the equivalent of looking for a rainbow, and finding a rainbow with a unicorn covered in gold at the bottom. Alaska AND Maine walked side-by-side, right in front of me.
I SHOVED people out of the way, sprinting with the speed of a thousand determined hippos, and desperately, with tears in my eyes, begged them for their signatures. I walked away victorious.
And STILL didn't get a signature from Vermont.....
Check out where one of the national contests are being held. They have national forestry and mechanics contests to name a few. There will be members from every state there on the team. Shouldn't be too hard to find the ones you are missing.
Well shoot, I can't believe I didn't think of this! I always walked through the state booths, but they almost never have people at the tougher state booths. It was super hard finding an old national officer though! Finally did at the fight hunger booth :)

Hey there! I met a kid from the Midnight Sun chapter. Most Alaska kids I met were super nice, and were treated like superstars as everyone tried to get their signatures. :) Mackay, ID chapter approves.
The last national convention was my first, It was crazy having to leave a half hour early in order to get from on end of a hall to get to the other end. Can't say that I miss it, but it was really cool.
I'm from Idaho, but instead of flying, we load a bus full of students from our chapter and other local chapters, and drive. The. Whole. Way. To. Louisville. It takes us 11 days total, and we stop at all sorts of cool places. This year, I won a scholarship from Culver's that got us $10,000 to go, and it only cost everyone $100 to take the trip. We also got to go to the concert that opened with Maddie and Tae. Did anyone else go to that? I have a whole separate story if there's anyone here who did. :)

I was always in search of Extra Innings on the Super NES system. Could never find it locally and eBay people wanted more than I wanted to spend (last time I looked). I just got a PS4 and was in the demo area of the store and saw Super Mega Baseball. I thought to myself let's give it a try. Started playing it and it is very close to Extra Innings. Went ahead and bought the game because I was like, "Yea I can get down with this!" After purchasing there was a button for DLC, clicked on that and it turns out you can download the stadium(s) from the old Extra Innings game. This leads me to believe maybe same developer possibly! Thought it was awesome though!!!

I have/had that game and it was awesome! You can get it on Ebay right now for $7-10.
Not to be negative or anything, but that's pretty much bullshit for me. I train enough to be in good shape and I even look good imo and so on so forth. That doesn't stop me from being depressed most the time.
Well, it doesn't work for everyone, but it's a good first line. Doesn't work perfectly for me either, but I've had better luck with exercise than I have with medication; YMMV of course.

You should visit a doctor friend. I had the same kind of feeling for the longest time, and I just decided it was part of my life. I could never understand because I love my life, I have an awesome job, girlfriend, and everything is going well. But I've always had a really empty feeling. I went to a doctor, and while I'm not saying anti-depressants would help everyone, or even if that's what you should expect if you go to a doctor. But that's what happened with me, and while I've always been cynical when it comes to prescription medication, I have been feeling so so much better recently. I know it's not something that helps with everyone. But if you haven't already, go to a doctor. I've felt that way before, and probably will again, and it's the absolute fucking worst.
It may just be dysthymia but either way medication is usually the only management system.

A company dog is what you need. I recommend something small and easy to care for. The yorkie is probably number one choice like this, all you need to really care for with one is combing them daily, their biggest need is atenttion and worst thing you can do one is leaving them alone all day. It'll cure you right off.

Hey, I was just reading SuperBetter by Jan McGonigal and she mentions the idea that if your goal is to achieve happiness, you usually end up sort of off track and unhappy. However, if you try to 'sneak up on happiness' or try to achieve happiness adjacently, your success rates will be much higher. Instead of making the goal happiness, you make the goal(s) things that can contribute to happiness. These things usually include socializing with friends and family, interacting with animals or children, helping others, learning new things, trying new skills, etc. Helping other people tends to be a huge contributing factor in happiness.
So, instead of thinking to yourself 'I wish I was happy' or 'things would be better if I was happy' try and focus instead on a specific action you can take sneakily towards happiness.
Some things that I try include: trying out a new baking recipe and giving the treats to a friend or neighbor, texting someone I haven't talked to in a while and asking how they are doing on a scale of 1-10 (instead of just 'how ya doin') which I then follow up with how can I help make your [whatever number they say] turn into a [their number plus 1], volunteering at animal shelters or picking up trash in state parks, taking a walk downtown and trying to genuinely compliment at least one person per block.
That is a great recommendation. For those times when depression sneaks up on me, I use the SuperBetter app on my phone. Small things, but it actually works if you slow down and do them correctly.

A better way of putting that would be more like "happiness isn't the goal, you derive happiness from doing things."

First year of the series. They were using solid slab alder bodies during the original run. They feel more substantial than the reissues, and still have the old headstock shape.
I have three SB-1 basses, all pre-lawsuit. It'd be nice to have a matching SC-2. Plus I'm a sucker for that Tele Deluxe sound, but I never liked the look of a Tele.

If all else fails, you could try to contact Sony's ad department, just email them and see if anyone's willing to help you out. A long shot, but hey, the song is pretty dope.
Running this through Shazam gives different results for different parts of the commercial, so maybe it's something that was mixed together just for this?
Nope, very different song unfortunately. Every time I've tried a service like that it always returns a different song.

A good friend/boyfriend that I had for a few months while I lived out of state.
My mom told my sister, step sister, and I that we were moving states..the day before we moved. I was not allowed to tell my dad, my grandmother (both of who I was very close to) or anyone else for that matter. They had no plan. We went to this particular town because his sister lived there. The five of us lived in a tent for two weeks until they found a house.
I became friends with my next door neighbor. There were 3 girls, fairly close to us in ages. Their cousin became my "boyfriend" for those few months.
We moved at the end of the school season so we spent all day outside hanging out/playing/walking around town (very small town). His mom was very kind to me and let me come over to their house. He had family come in to visit from up north for a short time. I had no idea he was gonna go back with them for a few weeks.
I woke up to knocking on my door one morning about 6am. When I finally got to it (everyone else was asleep), I saw him getting into a car. I thought no big deal, they're going to breakfast. Nope.. he was going to visit his family.
This would not have been an issue except.. during the time that he was gone (about a week later), my grandmother found us. She had legal rights to us for the summer, so we went back to our home state with her (I cannot explain how happy this made me).
While we were gone, my mother missed us/home and convinced her husband to move back.. so they did.
I never got to say goodbye to him. He was just really kind to me and that was a really difficult time in my life.
I just wonder how he's doing, where he ended up, how his family is.
I know his first and last name (quite common), his brother's name, and his mother's first name. I know how old he was at the time but not his birth date. When I first got mIRC/ICQ/Myspace/Facebook, I did some general searches but didn't have any luck so I don't bother anymore.
If you're somehow reading this, I hope everything turned out the way you wanted it to and I hope you are all well.

A lot of 'people search' sites are pretty ratty and want you to pay for info, but the last time a thread like this came up I had some luck finding people through Spokeo, PeopleLookup and Intelius. They list known relatives, but I don't know how reliable the info is.
If you're really wanting to find him you could potentially get access to the birth/family records from the library/town hall of the place you two were staying. Hell, since it's a really small town people probably knew each other you could probably just look up some older residents in the Yellow Pages/Internet and ask them.

I think that view is oversimplified. Plenty of people try to follow that path. You can get better at all kinds of things if you can sustain interest for a little while, but even without frustration, at some point putting in lots of effort on something just feels pointless. Why am I doing this? I've already proven this is something I can be pretty great at if I keep trying. But why bother? The novelty has worn off and it's boring now. Besides, nobody cares. What am I gonna do with it, just show off how great I am and try to make people jealous or something? Ick.

A little late to the party, but my half sister. She's about 16 or 17 years older than I am. My dad and his girlfriend at the time had her when they were teenagers and put her up for adoption and never spoke of it again. I would love to meet her and tell her that she has five younger siblings that have been looking for her for years now and that she's very much loved by all of us.

Yes, sort of. How your brain works is that things and thoughts and feelings you experience regularly have stronger neural connections - whatever you practice regularly your brain gets better at doing. Things like feeling confidence or anxiety can both become basically habits for your brain. So in the case of empathy, practicing going out of your way to understand why and how people do/say/feel the things they do will increase the speed and skill at which your brain will do those empathetic things in the future.

Hey, while we're at it, this graduation speech might help you. I'm definitely not a fan of motivational crap, but I do listen to this one speech at least once a month or something.
Oh my god, if someone could help me, that would be awesome. It's music. A long time ago I downloaded Black & White, but not from any reputable source, so it came with an interesting install program. But the game isn't the important part, it's the install screen. I remember it had a spinning, flipping 3 1/2 Floppy disk and there was some techno music playing. There were about 5 songs and you could skip through them. I'd love to hear those songs again, but I doubt I ever will.
Has anyone run into this?
EDIT: It seemed to be music of choice by the person who ripped the game and made the game downloadable. It's not game music.
Probably won't be able to find it unless you can somehow track down the specific cracked version you had. It's called a crack intro and the music would usually be made by the group who cracked the software. You can still hear examples of this in modern keygen software.
It's a start. I'm glad at least someone knows what I'm talking about.
EDIT: Well, I may have found something just as good. Just YouTube'd "crack intro" and found a plethora of similar sounding music. Nothing like I remember, but still awesome. Takes me back to those days. Thank you for your help! :)
On the left, third video down. That is the background. Class Cracktro, oh man, you got me on the path. I've found one song, and I'm sure I've heard others, but it has been about 15 years.

The fact that single is a category points to the fact that SOMEBODY somewhere has a girlfriend that is HOT and SANE, therefore, she is not single. It's possible, just more likely that someone is holding onto her, so she'll probably never be single again.

Nostalgic smells. Every once in a while, I catch a fleeting whiff of something that conjures up a wave of emotions. How can you chase down a smell, really?
Finally figured out what my grandparents' house smells like. Bengay and banana bread. How, you ask? I put on some bengay and put some banana bread in the oven. Bit later, "gee it smells like grandma's house".

The motivation to get a model's body.
Every time I attempt to diet and exercise I stop just short of this goal and get stuck at a mediocre, healthy weight for my height, when my dream is to be skinny. I am a male, BTW.
I'll be honest. Been there, done that. It's kind of a let down. "Oh, I have a sexy six pack, single digit bodyfat, and my back looks like a topographical map of Colorado. Now what?"
It really doesn't get you that much more attention, and you start to get anxiety about being able to maintain it. The worst part of the deal is, if you happen to get injured, and start to deteriorate, holy fucking depression Batman, what a terrible feeling.
Multiple injuries. Tack on to this some periods of depression which lead to drug and alcohol abuse.
At my best, I've done a marathon, a fuckton of half marathons, destroyed the bike and run portions of team triathlons, deadlifted 355lbs, benched 280 (I weighed 140 lbs at the time).
I'll never be able to do any of this shit again but I'm making the best of the carcass that remains.
Look, I went out looking for motivation to work out and lose some weight. I tried everything. Motivational songs, movies, texts, pics, everything.
Then it dawned on me. You don't FIND motivation at the click of a button. You get up, and you make working out a part of your everyday routine. You're not gonna wake up every day and go "Yeah! I'm so motivated!" You need to trick your mind and your body into assimilating it to your daily schedule. So get up, and go work out. I lost 17 kilos over the last 6 months this way. You can do it. Just get up and do it, don't look for reasons or motivation as to "why?"

I also struggle with motivation in the beginning, but sticking with it makes it easier and easier.
Honestly, I'd recommend just starting a supplement course to go along with it. Something simple like a pre-workout load or fat burners or whatever. If you've spent money on the supplements and are taking them, then it really motivates you to put it to good use and not waste it. And you get better results.

I have a stuffed animal my neighbor gave me when I was 4 years old. Its a black and white dog and its been mauled a few times by various pets. I moved a lot as a kid and it has a lot of sentimental value to me. I'd like to find one like it.
Someone on Reddit actually commented on a pic of it i posted once saying he had the same one and was trying to find it. I don't even know where to start!
If you have a picture of it, you might be able to have someone recreate it. I found this company from a quick Google search that makes stuffed animals based on drawings and pictures. It's not cheap (starts at $89), but it could be worth it if it's that sentimental to you.

Thats a really cool idea. Maybe thats a possibility in the future.
I remember a super old web series, maybe in the late 90s/early 2000s, it was a hillarious cartoon with animation/characters similar to like He-Man I think, but it was more of a spoof. I can't remember much at all about it, but that it was hillarious. I think it was vaguely popular back then. Can't find it again now.
Hmm no, I do remember those though! The one I'm thinking of was completely animated, and I think it was only a web/internet series, I don't think it was on TV

I remember looking for a sketch I saw long ago. It was a game show, and one of the contestants was a Native American (I think played by Kevin Nealon), but all the prizes were Native American artifacts. And I think he keeps losing and the jackass contestant he's with is winning all of these treasured and valuable artifacts. At the time I thought it was hilarious, but I was in like 8th grade. I couldn't find it online.
When I was a kid I saw a cartoon that had a bunch of dragons in it and some dude took over one of the dragons, beat the bad guy and saved the say. That's all I remembered from it and only ever saw it ones and never again until last weekend after spending close to two decades trying to figure out what movie it was.
I was describing it to my coworker one morning, he had the brilliant idea to try and look it up on IMDB. within minutes he found it. It's called "Flight of the Dragons" and it's still a good movie in my 30's as it was when I was 9.
My dad was getting his first tattoo at age 50 just before he died. A full back piece of 13 samurai. He had 7 finished when he died. I've always wanted to share the last 6 with my brother as tattoos. I've never been able to find the art work he used for it. He died 11 years ago. I remember him saying it was called 13 ghosts of samurai or something like that.
Well shoot XD That's pretty much a good example of the phenomena I mentioned originally. A few years ago that would have giving me nothing. Thanks for researching it for me then! I assumed you knew from memory.
A music youtibe video. It has a woman dancing and singing to some sort of opera song that is a kind of techno remix. There is fire in the background and a guy playing a keyboard. The woman dancing has some strange dance moves and the entire effect comes across how I imagine how insanity feels.
I used to watch it now and again as it is strangely compelling.
Maybe your jeans are too tight in the thigh area? If you're male/wear male clothing /r/malefashionadvice might be able to help find a good fit for you :)

Sorry, I'm very much female, so I doubt they could help me there, but thanks anyways. And my jeans are essentially never high enough in the waist that my butt doesn't show, and high-waisted jeans (like mom jeans) fit around my legs and butt, but are always wayyyy too loose around the waist area. It's basically because nobody on the planet has ever thought that girls could have thick thighs and a big ass and also have a small, thin waist. Like wtf
This shitty, MS - Pinball tier game. It was on the old laptop of a friend of my fathers, probably about 2002 ish, so most likely running on XP or Windows 2000. The game was very simple. You chose either a male or female character, and have to get as drunk as possible before time runs out. You have an ugly date and the drunker you get, the hotter your date becomes. The mechanics were very basic, your hand moves back and forth along the bar, automatically, and the bar tender randomly drops drinks at random points on the bar. You'd hit space bar at the right time to take the drink.
I absolutely do not expect to find this game for the rest of my life, and all I want is to know what the fully hottest date looks like. 7 year old me was blown away by a blonde starting to lift her skirt up. :(

A belt buckle.
I don't care about belt buckles, but this has been one of my biggest regrets for the last decade.
Having dinner with some friends at the Irving Big Stop, take a walk through the various tourist junk and stop to laugh at the ridiculous belt buckle display. Then I see it...
It's a buckle with a truck driving toward you, with an eagle soaring behind it. I assume it's meant to be patriotic or represent the freedom of the road or something like that. What it actually looks like is an eagle giving it to a tractor trailer.
Didn't buy it, but went back a week later to get it as a gag gift for one of my friends. Never saw it again. I've looked at every belt buckle display at every truck stop, mall kiosk, flea market... I even asked the original Big Stop where they get their buckles from in there hopes of buying straight from the distributor.
Other problems just don't compare.

My god... That is so dang close I can't tell if it's my memory playing tricks on me. I think the eagle was more or less standing behind the truck, with wings outspread, but this is pretty damn magical itself!
Now I have to regoogle and see if I can find a store. Thanks u/zabunia!

A show i think it was a cartoon though may of been an anime. It was on cartoon network in Australia im not aware of the year. It was about someone who travelled to a universe with demon like creatures that competed in a game like battle where they would duel each other. There was a guy that after he slept would turn into a dog and after the dog slept for 3 days would turn into the human again. And the main character had a talking ball on a stick like weapon.
I don't know if that is how you spell your name or what your last name is, but I met you when I was in Grade 6 visiting Karachi, Pakistan from Canada. You were my family's neighbour and we always played soccer in the streets.
Before my flights back, you ran up to my taxi with an enclosed envelope and told me to only read it when I boarded the plane.
I know I was just a kid but that letter made me cry the entire flight back home. You talked about yourself, our brief friendship and included your contact info and a small picture of you. You told me to never forget you and I never did.
If this sounds like you, please PM me. I've been waiting my whole life to catch up with you.
Hi, you must post this in r/Pakistan. A lot of Pakistanis use facebook. Just get on to r/Pakistan and try to get the name of the school Rameez attended. After that it should be a matter of locating that school on facebook. Good luck, and feel free to pm me for tips.

The names of two games which I played ages ago but can't seem to find again:
The first was a PC game. One of the first to do 3d graphics. It was an action-adventure game, and it had a third person perspective with a fixed camera. You live in a post-apocalyptic world. The only surviving cities are situated under beams of light emanating through the clouds (think nuclear winter) and everywhere outside the city is total darkness/chaos etc. The character himself has two 'sides' a light side and a dark side. One fights and the other communicates/interacts etc.
The second was an SNES game and my memory of it is VERY hazy. Side-scrolling with RPG elements in it. I remember that there was magic but I didn't get to the stage where I could actually use it. It was insanely difficult. In the first stage you descend into this cave --- that's all I remember because that's as far as I ever got!
Edit:- More on the SNES game: you're going up these rocks inside the cave and there's this one bad-guy very early on who kills you dead, every time.

Thank you :) i was pretty young when it came out and the dark elements in the storyline were a revelation for me when I played it. Gonna try and see if I can find it online.
I haven't much hope of finding the name of the second one. My memory of it is too hazy.

You know I've tried that a hundred times in the past but only looked at the list of titles on wiki hoping to recognise the name. I followed your advice but with a twist. I looked at the different screen caps on images and found my game! The (improbably) named title is "Ys III Wanderers of Ys." Thanks for the help.

Just a bit of back story. I'm a guy, I am trans, and when I transition I want to be called Sarah.
The weirdest thing happened the other day, I met another girl named Sarah, now that's a common name so its nbd right? But after a while I realized we have almost EVERYTHING in common, music, mannerisms, sense of humor, taste in movies etc. She also calls me her soul sister but has no idea that I'm trans! She refers to me as a girl sometimes and me and her just go with it but she doesn't know!
I don't know why I put this here but I think I have been looking all of my life to find somebody I can actually confide in, and I was starting to think I wouldnt find them, and now I really think I have!!!
If this is too far from what you were asking for just let me know and I'll remove it :)

I don't know what they are called but it's basically you telling a story while drawing on a piece of paper. At the end of the story you end up with a drawing of a turkey or something.
I remember doing these kinds of things in elementary school. Something about a man living by the lake and he had a long nose.

When I was a small child, I always carried a stuffed bunny around. I lost it in a mall when I was 3yo. According to my family, it was a tragedy that left me incredibly shy and detached. It's really easy for me to drop relationships without any distress, and I can't help but wander if it's because I lost my best friend when I was little.
Ever since, I've always searched the stuffed animal section of every store I go to. Especially during Easter time. But, even after 19 years, no luck.
I had a stuffed bunny too. I left mine in a hotel when I was 3, but my parents managed to get them to post it to me. My bunny was bought for me the day I was born. Apparently she used to be pink. .she's faded to white now. I would hate to lose my bunny. I feel sad for you :(
My mother's favorite stirring spoon. It's one of those old rubbermaid ones with a flat handle with a little dent in it and perfect circle holes in the relatively shallow spoon. It's perfect for everything but I can't find more just like it. I'd get a dozen if I could, some for her and some for me.
Step 1: Find a patch of clover. I know, how obvious.
Step 2: Don't get on your hands and knees to look for them, stand up straight and scan the patch. Why? Because your brain's pretty decent at spotting things that don't match the pattern, such as a clover with an extra leaf.
Step 3: Move a few clovers around and repeat step 2. Just run your hand or foot through them real quick and scan again.
Late summer is the best time to find them, and if you find one in a patch odds are very good you'll find more. Some varieties are more likely to mutate than others too. My parents have one that grows up to 8 leaves pretty regularly.

Thanks, that was the only result I could find when I googled it a few years ago, I actually contacted the seller to try to find where she got it, but she only had that one which sold.
This stupid video I found many many long years ago when the internet was still shiny and new. It was some guy making up a shitty story about how Linkin Park came to his house, all drawn up in MS Paint. It was utterly stupid, which is probably why it no longer exists anywhere.

An animated show I watched as a kid. It was probably from the mid 90s. The Only things I can recall is that the sat around a round table and had a big screen on the wall. The got a mission and helmets dropped down from the roof, one for each of the guys who sat around the table. Then the like drove away in big cool trucks and kinda saved the day.
Somebody who knows which show it can have been. It's a long shot but still worth a try.

No problem. My mom still has a couple of the toys of mine from 30? years ago. The red car and black suv.
So I was on reddit a few years ago (yeah I know big surprise) looking around when something caught my eye. It was this comment about someone wanting to be a parent, and all of the things he or she would do as a parent to try and make his child's life as best as he could possibly make it. I was reading this going "God, this is exactly what I want to do as a parent when I'm older." After doing this I unconsciously closed reddit. That is one of the top 5 worst things I have done in my relatively short life. As I was a fairly new to reddit at the time, I never knew about a save button. I wasn't smart enough to take a screen-shot or to try to record it in anyway. Remember reading that comment, outlining everything I wanted to do as a parent, even things I was never able to put into words before. I was absolutely stunned reading it. This wasn't some cookie cutter buzzfeed crap. It conformed to my ideals and values in almost every way I could've imagined at the time. The problem is I never could find that comment again. I searched for days and days, asking anyone I could find for help, but it was all in vain. I was mentally kicking myself in the balls for a week or two after that, I was so pissed at myself. Seeing what you want to do as a parent outlined for you in almost perfect detail, when you yourself don't even have a concrete idea as to what you want to do yet. That sounds almost impossible. Yet, it happened to me. I'll never forget that damned comment. It is what inspired me to become a parent. It inspired me to look for someone special in my life. To this day there is very little I regret more than passing by that one comment, that one piece of inspiration and hope, that I could one day have someone who loved me as much as I loved them, and a special someone to call my own.
The title of a short story my dad read me as a kid. It was in a collection of old stories. Basically it's about a man and a rat shipwrecked on an island and competing through the whole plot for food and survival. At the end a ship comes and picks the guy up but leaves the rat, but he throws bread overboard for it. The last scene is the rat gorging itself on a pile of bread.
It's been bugging me for years. I really want to read it again.
Could it be "Three Skeleton Key"? I'm only familiar with the Vincent Price old-time-radio version of this story, but according to Wikipedia it was a written story first. Not exactly what you describe but at least has some similar elements.
Similar, but I'm sure it was just one guy vs the rat. That looks awesome too, though!

I'm gonna go with something more obscure here. Translations to all the non-English dialogue in episodes of The Simpsons.
Simpsons Archive does not have all translations, and I don't know of other fan site that might. But then I can finally answer questions like: What did the angry French ticket clerk say in Euro Itchy & Scratchy Land? What were Apu and Manjula arguing about in their native language (sorry Homer, I doubt "Manjula" is some kind of a spaceship)?

A photography book. Interference by Nick Rhodes. I know two people who own a copy but they have never dug it out of their parents basements for me to even see a copy. I purchased one from EBay when eBay first started, some guy in Brazil, sent the money and never ever received the book and then he disappeared.
Every used book store, thrift store, record store, I always look. I probably always will. I've been looking since the mid 80's.

Long ago McDonalds used to have a promotion where they gave tiny packages of flavoured powder with their fries, and you could put the fries in a bag and add the powder, shake them up and have flavored fries. They were so good... I miss them. I have tried buying popcorn flavoring and doing it myself but it was never the same.

A typewriter ribbon for a typewriter that was a graduation gift to my wife from her parents when she graduated. I began my search over 20 years ago before we had the internet. No luck - it has to be for a particular make & model and they just don't make it anymore.
These belong to my mother. My grandmother took one of them (Third from right, one sitting on pillows) without our knowledge and gifted to someone, we don't know when or to whom. That was years ago, and she took that mystery to her grave.

There was a movie I watched when i was younger and I have no idea what the name of it is. Its some kind of comedy about these criminals? and they rob a bank. When they ask the teller to hand over a bag for the money but there is a big plexiglass sheet separating them so he throws it over and it gets caught in the fan. The teller tries to free the bag but he is crazy short and is jumping with a broom and not getting anywhere near it.
I think there is also a baby in the back seat of the getaway car?
I've never figured out what the movie is called and I've been looking on and off for years.

My grandfather's military records.
He served in WWII in the Signal Corps. Unfortunately it seems his records were lost in a fire a few decades ago, or at least that was what my brother was told the last time he tried to file a formal request for them.
He died when I was 2 1/2 years old. My grandmother passed about five years ago and I was a fool and never asked her about Grampa when I had the chance. I'd like to know more of his story.
What I do know: when he was shipped out he started in Africa and then moved north into the European theater via Italy. I know his unit was the first into Dachau to take care of the survivors after the liberation. But that's it: a rough outline. I'd like to know more.

One of them, I swear I found a cover version of Man Who Sold the World performed by Siouxsie and the Banshees but have never been able to find it again.
Also a recipe that actually replicates the noodles from Manchu Wok. They always get the sauce wrong or the type of noodle wrong, and I'm too chicken to ask the ladies who work there what type of noodles they actually use. I've tried shitloads of copycat recipes and even tried making Yakisoba thinking that might be what I'm looking for, but something was still off :(

A book, I read years ago..I cannot even find it on Google. A man on a boat is trolling along a cliff, and finds a small statue embedded in it. The statue is of a humanoid with webbed hands and feet, if I can recall correctly. He takes the statue and learns somehow that it belongs to an ancient race of beings under the sea. I remember the story ending with a lot of fire, and lava, under the sea or near the earth's core. Great book. The cover was a picture of the statue, and the sides of the pages were red in color. Help me redditwan...your my only hope.

A video game, I've posted it up on /r/Tipofmyjoystick before with no luck... here goes anyway!
[PC][Early to mid 90's]
submitted 1 year ago by Nettychan
Platform(s): PC
Genre: Seemed to be a type of murder mystery, or at least you progressed the story by moving around, collecting items and talking to people.
Estimated year of release: Early to mid 90's
Graphics/art style: Pixelated, the parts I remember were set in a city. The play options were located at the bottom of the screen at all times.
Other details: The most prominent thing I can remember about this game was a scene where you go up stairs to the roof of a building and a man shoots you. You are given an option to use an item and to survive you've to use a bible to absorb the shot.
This has been bugging me for a long long time so I appreciate the help! What's worse is it wasn't my game but a friends and they can't remember it either -.-

Well, I don't remember the Bible scene, but are you by chance referring to any of the earlier parts of Broken Sword?
Edit: You gotta give something more. Too many games with guns, roofs and bibles.
My guess is that it's older than broken sword, since it looks much better than the game I remember.
I'll try and remember more but that's really all I got!

Not years but a littlw over a year.
Costco in Canada used to carry this tomato soup by the brand of Johnny's. I bought a pack and it was the best tomato soup I'd ever tasted. Went back to Costco a few weeks later to buy more and they discontinued it. :(
I emailed them and even posted on a gold giving sub and offered a year of gold for anyone who could find this soup available to ship to Canada. Nobody could find it.
Why are car headlights on a (constant 12v) circuit where they can be left on? Your car radio, your wipers, your seat heaters, these are all on the switched 12v circuit. You turn your car off, all these things turn off automatically. I think it's a conspiracy by big battery.
So, picture this. It's midnight. You're at an intersection and just as you want to turn left, your motor stalls (word?). Oops wrong gear.
Would you want oncoming traffic, or traffic from behind, to know you're there, or would you rather save some battery? (tbh I'm TRYING to find a situation where it would make sense)
Reasonable circumstances. However, if your motor just stalls, without you moving the ignition switch, your radio, wipers, etc don't turn off. In the situation that you've mentioned, where I would definitely want to have headlights, I don't think it would turn off the headlights in either case, as a constant 12v (how cars are wired) or a switched 12v (how I think it should be wired).
And then you restart the engine, during which it does. (though newer cars seem to have better ways to do this than to turn the key both ways, and with newer I mean the common car, by now, I guess)
Either way, you're probably right.

My Subaru turns the headlights off if you take the key out even if the switch is on. I usually just leave the switch on all the time so that I kind of have automatic headlights.

With modern cars, the lights do go off when you turn the car off. With mine, if I need to leave the lights on, you have to turn them off and back on again whilst the car is off.
In some circumstances, you do need to leave your sidelights on when parked. Main lights on are useful for foggy situations or if you want to get out of your car and use the lights to see something.

There exists a extended cut of the Movie Dazed and Confused. Supposedly it's close to 4 hours in length. I know it exists cause I've seen part of it that isn't in the original (and not just one of the deleted scenes). Still on the hunt for information
I dunno how easy it is to get a hold of people involved in the production, or the production company itself, but it could be a lead. I would try myself, but I live halfway across the world :P

I jumped schools a lot as a kid. Divorces and custody battles, you know. Anyway, at one of the schools the teacher starts to read us a story. His friend was writing it, and it was to be a children's fantasy novel. Whenever a chapter was finished, the teacher would read it out loud. It was amazing. Unfortunately, since I jumped schools a lot, I only got to hear the first few chapters. I was in the 2nd or 3rd grade so I can't remember the title or main character. But it was a girl, and she lived in a cottage thing with her parents and shed befriended a fairy. The fairy had to go fix some shit, so she wanted the girl to come with her cuz she was wicked smart. Of course, magic was kind of outlawed and crap too. It was way better than I'm making it sound. But yeah, I would love to find that damn book of it ever got published. Or at least somehow remember the name.

Go to california. you'll probably find it there as I've learned first hand (Colorado too most likely, however I've never been so I couldn't tell you). Personally wasn't impressed with the buds in Amsterdam, but its nice being able to go into a coffee shop, order a couple bags and a coffee and roll a spliff.
I'm not a weed guy by any means but I've smoked weed from California (it was from some random lady in Oakland and was mediocre), Amsterdam, and I've lived in BC my whole life, but the best weed by far I ever smoked was called Chronic from a dispensary in Tacoma.

haha thats awesome. not to say the weed in amsterdam is bad by any means, as I was stoned off my ass, but it just wasn't on the same level of dispensary weed imo. some of those $60 eighths you get in a dispensary will get you transcending after a hit. got an eighth of girl scout cookies from BPG when I was out in Berkley last year and by god man, that was the best weed i've smoked.
An older movie about a man who buys a mermaid chained in a tank and somehow a woman ended up pregnant with the mermaid's babies ... Oh, the mermaid killed everyone else.
Sadly that's all I remember, so I may never find the movie.
Copied from my (obviously unsuccessful) post on TOMT:
I'm looking for a music video that I saw around 2005 - 2007 I believe, though I am pretty sure the channel it was on was one which played a fair bit of older music, so I am not sure on release date.
The entire video was just a car driving forward in the desert until it eventually passed where the camera was, and the video ended.
I don't remember anything about the song at all, which leads me to believe there may not have even been any words. This video also seemed to go on for 10+ minutes.
A metal song where one of the two vocalists screams "believe in love". There were homeless people in the music video of that song. It's been 4 years since I'm still looking for this song.
Thanks for trying to help mate, but don't bother yourself. I've been trying to find it for 4 years searching by lyrics, album cover etc. and still no results. Kinda like it vanished.

So about three years ago my wife and I saw a necklace in a store window, and she said, "Something like that for Christmas would be nice."
I promptly forgot about it or where we saw it, but then when Christmas was approaching I remembered and tried to find it, and nope can't find it or anything quite like it.
It is basically a silver necklace with hammered rings/hoops where each section has a large ring and a smaller ring overlapping and each connected to a small link... really simple actually, but kind of hard for me to explain. Basically a chain with small links alternated with hammered rings with two overlapping rings, then another small link, then two more overlapping rings...
I think it had about 7 of the hammered segments, and a chain around the back.
The style of jewelry is called chainmaille I believe, there are a quite few big chainmaille sites that would be willing to do custom work for you (custom only because you said the rings were hammered). I'd do it myself if you'd like..? PM me if you're interested :)
One night I was driving home from work. on some college radio station a blues singer did a cover of Billie Jean that blew my mind. (It was a guy, the song was slow, he played guitar and sounded black...so basically a blues singer)
It was awesome and I have never heard it or found it again. I've listened to many bad covers on YouTube trying to find this one.
A copy of the 1976 movie The Adventures of Frontier Fremont. VHS, DVD, Reel, I don't care. I used to have a vhs of it that was recorded off of television, but it was lost many years ago.
All I can ever find is posters and stills. I eventually found an old thread where a person was offering to copy his VHS, but they never got back to me.
Not sure how recently you looked, but it looks like this guy has the VHS version. He seems to collect VHS tapes. Perhaps you could try asking him if he's willing to sell it, or maybe make a copy for you?
A book I read in like elementary school or middle school about a young girl and her family during the holocaust. All I can remember is a family helped her family of Jews (or vice versa) and a vividly described scene about German shepherds raiding her house or something. There were psalms and maybe a necklace involved in the story?
Also a movie about WWII called like Saints/Soldiers or something. A group of misfit soldiers band together in the woods or something. I can't remember but I know I'm not crazy.

Pretty sure the book is "Number the Stars" by Lois Lowry.
I vaguely remember some old PS2 game. I don't actually know at this point if it really exists or if I made it up in my head. I vaguely recall exploring some castle in an open 3D environment as some pink haired girl. It seemed mostly empty. Then I recall switching control to a blonde guy with a sword in what looked to be the same castle, but heavily run down, suggesting playing through different time periods.
That's literally all I remember of it, and everyone I mention to has never heard of anything like it. Will note before anyone mentions common guesses: Not Dark Cloud (or the sequel, Dark Cloud 2/Dark Chronicle), probably not Star Ocean.
Well, thanks for trying, but that's not it. I'll edit my comment in a minute, but here in the States, Dark Chronicle was released under the name Dark Cloud 2. I'll just go ahead and leave it as me incorrectly remembering how Dark Cloud 2 plays, as I owned it back in the day. Thanks a lot!
A film/tv show. It was about some people in a desert or western? All i remember was there was a character with a leather mask because he was burned but he was really funny and outgoing character. He has long brown hair in a ponytail.
Another character was this gupsy girl her parents were escaping in their caravan when she fell off and met up with the masked man and his friends. She took off the masked mans mask in one scene and started making out with him in front of the campfire. I always wondered what this film was.
Around 10-15 years ago I saw a music video for a cover of Nena's 99 Luftballons. It was by some obscure British rock band, in English, and the singer was this teenage-yong adult girl with long, black hair and, I think, she was wearing a black leather jacket. The video was mostly shot in black and white, with footage from some music festival/concert.
It wasn't a great cover. And the girl wasn't particularly hot. But she reminded me of my first girlfriend and for a long time I wanted to see that video again.
Hey, I was just reading SuperBetter by Jan McGonigal and she mentions the idea that if your goal is to achieve happiness, you usually end up sort of off track and unhappy. However, if you try to 'sneak up on happiness' or try to achieve happiness adjacently, your success rates will be much higher. Instead of making the goal happiness, you make the goal(s) things that can contribute to happiness. These things usually include socializing with friends and family, interacting with animals or children, helping others, learning new things, trying new skills, etc. Helping other people tends to be a huge contributing factor in happiness.
So, instead of thinking to yourself 'I wish I was happy' or 'things would be better if I was happy' try and focus instead on a specific action you can take sneakily towards happiness.
Some things that I try include: trying out a new baking recipe and giving the treats to a friend or neighbor, texting someone I haven't talked to in a while and asking how they are doing on a scale of 1-10 (instead of just 'how ya doin') which I then follow up with how can I help make your [whatever number they say] turn into a [their number plus 1], volunteering at animal shelters or picking up trash in state parks, taking a walk downtown and trying to genuinely compliment at least one person per block.
A song I heard roughly 10 years ago. At this point I don't remember any of the words words from it.
What I do remember is the primary instrument is a piano. It starts off as a man singing a line, then he is joined by a woman in singing that same verse, and it becomes a group singing that verse. However, when he does the duet with the woman, there's an additional instrument in the background that I don't know the name of (I swear it sounds like a triangle).
Does anyone recognize this? (I'm pretty sure it's an obscure song, because I've tried google searching back when I did remember some words from it, but got nothing of the sort)

Sounds like the decemberists song 'sons and daughters' as featured on the office.
Those Japanese dried hermit crab snacks. They are kind of like a salty, smelly, crab jerky.
A friend I worked with had a wife from Japan. He brought in some of the snacks and they were great, but he quit shortly there after and I have no way to ask him about them.
Internet searches tell me they are called Tamagogani, but I can't find them in any Oriental grocery, and the only person I found selling them on the 'net (on eBay) wanted an absurd price for a bag, like $30 or something for a very small amount.
They are a common snack in Japan, from what I understand, but no one seems to import them. Sure I can still get dried squid at the Asian grocer, but it's just not the same.
There was this cartoon network promo for a band at some point between 2004 and 2008 where this girl with black hair is making this crazy music on a stage and it cuts to her saying "My name is [something] and I like making noise." I've tried finding the promo for ages so that I could listen to the band, but no luck.
Puffy AmiYumi? There was a cartoon of them on CN around that time and I remember sometimes the girls the cartoon was based on would do things like that. I can't find the exact promo you're talking about though.
Damn that is hard to find except for http://www.theswissbakeryonline.com/ where a pack of 24 comes up to over $140 USD shipped. I couldn't find anything. A possible option is to ship it to a US address using http://shiptotheborder.com/. Best option I could find. If your not located close to the border or dont have access to a car, then it may be out of reach.

One stupid music video, that was CGI rendered and was about gnomes chasing something like hobbit. I saw it once on TV, and since then no luck. I remmeber it has kind of scandinavian name, but thatยดs it.
There's this song my dad sings sometimes but we can't find it anywhere online. The lyrics are, "Sur la mer, il y a un bateau qui vogue, bateau qui vogue, bateau qui vogue..." We know that it's from the 1970s or earlier, it was on a record, and the singer was from Quebec, so it may have been a very local song.
Nope, that's not it. We've checked that before, though it's possible it's a song by the same guy. If it is however, we haven't been able to find it. Thank you for looking all the same!
no its not that :( all I can remember is that there was this one level where you had to travel in a desert and fin this hidden temple in the sands. I guess Ill never find that game.

I posted this over on the Judge Judy subreddit with no response. I've been trying to re-find it for a while now. If you find it and live in KC, I'll buy you dinner.
For that matter, why the hell is there no Judge Judy archive?
It was a commercial that aired probably ten years ago. It might have been on MTV, it started with a man walking into a supermarket and picking up a can of "Korn", then a mosh pit appears from nowhere and carries him to the checkout.
2 years ago I was in a relationship, happy, making myself better with every day. When it ended I fell apart and for the past 2 years I've been trying to get back to that state but I've had no luck. It gets to the point where you wonder if you'll ever be happy again. Maybe it's normal to not be happy and I'm aiming for something unattainable. I don't know...

It was a game for the PC, pretty old. You flew around in like a fighter jet on different planets and they were like levels. As you moved to the next planet the color scheme would change and you'd encounter different things. The only level I distinctly remember was like a red themed planet.

I have his full name and former address, but he moved (wrote him a snail mail letter once a few years after camp and it got returned with "recipient no longer at this address, no forwarding address known" written on it).
unfortunately, he shares the exact same name as a celebrity, so trying to find him on social media/Google has proved fruitless.

Ever since MSN messenger was done for I can't talk to people I used to play with video games with because I don't think any of them bothered going to skype... I still have their e-mails but I guess they have moved on cuz they never reply to them :/ If some one used to play MS in Bera and was on Motive Guild lemme know :P Or The Russians on CA.
A Game that was on either windows 3.1 or something that old.
You have to put booby traps (bombs ..something slippery ..etc on a 3 floor view and then you start the game.
The aim was to go to the door with your hero character and the enemies pass through those traps ..
A videogame I played the a bit of like 10 years ago. I can't remember much from it apart from you definitely start off in like a prison cell, and there's a sleeping guard outside it? Definitely had an RPG vibe, and I remember it looking pretty good considering it was 10 years ago.
Only other bit I can really remember is that you get outside and there's a fight with 3 guys and one of them has a slightly better shield...
I don't remember anything about the dragon. I was a pretty crap gamer at that point, and quite young so it's possible I just never got to the bit with the dragon.

This is going to sound silly, but after my wife an I got married this commercial always came on TV that she found hilarious. Neither of us can remember what it even was for, all we can remember is the wife asking her husband what he's doing, and he replies, "Taking off that dirty sock!". Maybe it was a fabreeze commercial. I have no idea. Really not sure why she found it so funny.

Sounds like this:
"But, my all time favorite has to be the new Summer's Eve Commercial. A man is shown rifling through some dirty laundry in search of a pair of socks. He finds a sock, sniffs it, crinkles his nose at the stench, but still determines it is good for use and begin to put on the sock. His wife walks into the room and indignantly says, 'What are you doing?' to which he replies, 'Taking off that dirty sock!' Funny. Until I found out it was douche commercial."
I have vague memories of a TV series in the late 70's featuring a sasquatch and a kid (or a guy) riding what I remember as an uprigth land speeder kind of vehicle. Must have been some saturday morning kind of show.
Update: Oh Shit!, Oh Shit, Just googled it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYd1Cz0Qgyo Bigfoot and Wildboy, I'm guessing it had a crossover episode with that One Million Dollar Man Show.
A kids movie I watched 15 years ago. Had a scene involving an underwater ship wreck, and a bunch of singing electric eels zapping the main characters while they are trapped in a net. That's all I can remember, and for some reason it has been driving me insane. Please Reddit, you're my only hope.
This sounds vaguely familiar. Was it an old movie? I feel like the 1978 Water Babies movie may have had something like this in it.

A documentary. It was about elite athletes who sometimes have one perfect performance (e.g. at the Olympics) and what's going through their head at the time. It was a really interesting insight into their mental state and the psychology of athletic performance. Being "in the zone" was a term employed repeatedly.
I was watching it on a plane years ago and I didn't get to finish it, but I didn't remember the title and my googling was fruitless.

None. It would have made it easy if there were even a couple words I could have remembered so I could google, but there were no words in the song. Just a beautiful melody that sounds irish with a techno-y background. There were the words "Techno House" written on the tape, but my friend told me directly that the words had no connection to the song whatsoever, she just never knew the name of the song.
Back in Junior high my best friends and I made this stupid home video with an old video camera. One friend was the "dead" guy we just dragged around, and the rest of us just played out ridiculous scenarios. From the very beginning we found this old plastic penguin that was about 12-18" tall, translucent white on one half, and transparent on the other. Right at the end of the "movie" the penguin broke during one of the takes, and the next day my friend's mom threw it away. I have been trying for 10 years to find duplicate penguins for all my friends as a Christmas gift, but have never been able to.
I believe I found one on Ebay earlier this year, but by the time I found it it had already ended. If I'm remembering correctly, it was the penguin on the left in that picture, the largest one. I need four of those and my life's search would be complete.
a old video from years back......it had some sort of Chinese or Japanese guys showing their english skill or something, and every time they got a test wrong they got punished by slapping their ass with some kind of stick. There was this one poor fella who didnt know how to count past 10, so he just said ''ten one, ten two, ten three....ten ten one, ten ten ten seven'' and so on. It was funny as hell but I cant find it anywhere.

No audio, but he used subtitles to make comments, that were so freaking funny to me.

A video parody of Devil Went to Georgia that uses scenes from Hellsing. I hadn't watched Hellsing at the time but loved the video, and now that I've watched the anime, I really want to see that parody again.

1) a copy of Judas Priest covering Joleen. Think I saw it on channel 4 (UK when we only had 4 channels) in the late 80s or early 90s. Might have been on the tube (Friday night TV show of the era). It was a live performance. Was brilliant.
2) This one I might have imagined. I think I read a short story (children's book) aged around 5, so circa 1978 or 9. Story was basically alomg the lines of god was creating all the creatures in the world, the devil watches and wants to try but god says nah. Devil still wants to create something so he mines and mines and gets enough clay together to make the bumble bee. Never forgotten that story. If I just imagined it I should probably write it (could do from memory).

I've been searching for this old computer game called My First 1000 words, which had a duck on the cover/logo, can't remember well. What I do remember is the thing had some great pixel art animations. It was a language learning game for both English and Spanish speakers. Damn, I'd really like to play it again.
This book, it was kind of depressing I think. It was about a boy, I think he lived in Brooklyn. And the only scene I remember is that he met this other boy, and they went skinny dipping, and I think the other boy hurt him because he finds bruises later? Or something like that.
I want to find it because years ago I was in a bookstore with my dad, and I was too shy to ask him for a book bc my mother could never afford to buy us things, and he told me he'd never mind buying a book for me. So I picked that one out.
I have. I saw it once, but it was over $70. I'm not paying that much for a plush toy.

In the 1970s or 80s, there was a commercial/public service announcement by the US Postal Service. The upshot was , if you received a package in the mail that you didn't order, you got to keep it. For comedic effect, they showed an Eskimo holding an electric fan and giving the camera a thumbs-up. A few years ago, I mentioned this commercial to my friends, and they roundly mocked me for blathering about a commercial that, in their opinion, clearly never existed. I have been looking for the commercial online for gloating purposes ever since. Someday . . . .
Around 8 years ago, when I was 14, I created a song in Mario paint composer, and recorded it and uploaded it to photobucket, along with a roller coaster tycoon video. I can't find it ever, and I'm sad now

This comic I saw on like 4chan or something a decade ago of a man shaving in the shower and he slips on some soap and falls out the window and the last frame is him with the razor handle in his temple. It sounds batshit dumb when I type it out but I swear it was really funny at the time.

I played a boardgame with goats/sheeps in middle school. You have cards with a number from 1 to 30 on it, the goal is to climb a mountain, either as high as possible, or as low as possible, by playing the cards and winning/losing the round with the highest value. I've been looking for this for 2 years :(

A weird David Lynch series on ABC called "On The Air." It was right after Twin Peaks, and ABC wanted to do another series with him. He came up with this weird idea for a sitcom about a radio show trying to transition to TV or something like that. I saw one episode as a kid and thought it was amazing and then it got cancelled and I've never and episode since.
A pub I used to go to as a child in the mid 80s. It may have closed down by now, but I'd love to know what happened to it.
At the time, we lived near Camberley in Surrey. I remember referring to the pub as "The pub in Hatch" but I would have been about five at the time, so that may not have been anything to do with the name.
Things I remember:
From the car park, the pub was accessed by a small foot bridge over a stream, which also had stepping stones in it. It was only a couple of inches deep and my second cousin once fell in and laid there like a twit. The landlords tumble dried his clothes for him. My dad's best friend also once drove his car into the stream like a tit, because he was one.
The pub building was white, possibly thatched and possibly had beams on the exterior, Tudor style.
In the garden there was a small petting zoo type thing - I believe they had at least a donkey and possibly some goats.
There was an epic slide - I remember it as a mini helter skelter, but it could have just been a spiral slide.
I don't know where it was, but we lived on the Surrey/Hampshire/Sussex border. My dad had friends around Basingstoke, but it wasn't necessarily there. I think it was far enough away that we went relatively rarely - it wasn't our local - but I could be wrong.
I don't believe it's the Hatch Pub in the Ashdown Forest.
If anyone has any ideas at all on where this pub is or might have been, I'd love to know. This has been bugging me for years - my dad remembers the pub but not where it was and I can't ask my mother, so I've no way of finding it and I really have looked everywhere.

Mr. Rogers Neighborhood: visits a hot dog making factory (picture picture). Vivid memory from late 70s early 80s (possibly another Berenstain Bear?). Fred is standing with a worker over a giant tub of pink meat. Did not eat hot dogs for years after that.
There are some youtube videos showing similar type videos but none what I remember. Crystal clear memory of the pink meat being stirred about with a giant wooden spoon.
A friend told it to me once. Something about tourists on a bus, and a guessing game. It was kind of long doing this guessing game with a bunch of different nationalities. Then something about Canadians getting on the bus and they want to play, so the guys try to come up with something really difficult and the Canadian's first guess (the correct one) was "Is it Moose Cock?"
The intro is something like "There are many many different layers to reality...time to wake up!" then drops in to the song, I have tried for fucking years but have no idea wtf the song is called.

A movie/show that I saw when I was little. All I can remember is that in one scene two military men are fighting and one puts a green ball into the others mouth and that kills him.
Another movie about a terrorist. The scenes I remember are where one man has a bomb strapped to him. He has a stick behind his arms on which he has to balance a little ball which he fails to do so it explodes. In the beginning a man defuses a bomb outside the capitol and later throws up. Over a decade for both and still no luck.
Old NSYNC fan fiction from way back in the day. There was this one writer who was pretty popular and I wish I could remember her name just for old time sake (not fictionlyn). I remember she had one story where lance needed a heart transplant, and another one where Justin was in a spaceship (cant remember why), an a couple about vampires.
A game on the Apple Store where you could draw with different elements. Like you drew with grass and the drew fire on it and the grass would lit up. Think I played this on the Iphone 3s so it's a long way back but I never found it since
The same pillow I had as a comfort object for 25 years. I have the original, but it's too delicate now to sleep with let alone wash.
Small rectangular throw pillow that was a dark red color with gold twisted ropes cross crossing, the pillow had a matching gold twisted cord sewn into the boarder seams. Gold tassels on each corner.
I swore if I see it anywhere, even if I have to steal it, I will get it. No luck..
A modern, slim, dive watch with a leather band. There are some that aren't in production anymore but I haven't found one that I won't need to buy second hand and allows you interchange the band
A possibly '90s computer game set in a mansion, first person. All I remember about it is the paintings on the walls changing from normal paintings into gruesome versions, and similar horror type things. I have no recollection otherwise of any other details. It's been very hard to find any information on it!
Holy shit, I think that's it. Way less gruesome than I remember it being, but the time frame certainly fits, and would explain that, since I was quite young! The beckoning skeleton hand I think seals it as the game. Wow!

There's a rap song I used to love. The music video is a bunch of people battling the hot weather and a guy on the radio saying its going to be a hot day. I think the song came out in the early 2000's. I listened to it like 6 months ago, but then forgot what it was called and can't really remember the lyrics.
There was this show I watched as a kid. I don't remember the name, or even most episodes, but I do rememeber it took place inside the human body. Like the germs and cells talked and everything. It switched from person to person in the family as different things went wrong and what not. There was this one episode where the dad had a really bad case of pink eye and there was an entire battle scene (think duel of the fates) inside the retina of the eye. Someone please help, I will love you forever if you find this. Thanks.
The creepypasta where this group of girls invents another girl and the main character doesn't see her and then ends up killing the invented girl and there's an empty grave at the end? I read it awhile ago and it was really well written and I even found a forum page where people discussed theories about it. Google is no help.
A movie I watched once at 4am when I was 14. All I can remember are sparse details: A kid has a pretty close relationship with his neighbor for some reason. At some point, I think the neighbor character dies. In his will (or through some other means) the neighbor leaves the kid a key which is hidden in a garden birdhouse. Kid goes to the garden and gets the key, which has some sort of magical power. But there is also another kid character throughout the movie that has cancer. Because of his sickness, he gets made fun of and is disallowed from playing baseball. At the end of the movie, the original kid uses the key to cure the cancer of the latter kid.
I don't know. I'm pretty sure I'm confusing details or adding in my own.

A wonderful piece of music by a possibly Japanese pianist entitled "girls". I saw it on YouTube, video had a kid on a small bike . Lost the bookmark, can't remember the name of artist and have never been able to find it again. It haunts me
This song I really liked when I was in high school, like 2006 or 7. Definitely an emo band that had either chemical or romance in the name, but not my chemical romance. The music video took place in like a graveyard or something like that. If you have seen this video or know what band it is please let me know, it's been killing for years.
I was pretty young when I saw it, so I could be remembering it all wrong. But in the MASH episode, Hawkeye witnessed the mother kill her own baby. But who knows at this point, I might just be crazy.
They were on a bus trying to avoid the North Korean patrol, he was retelling the story to the military shrink. He kept saying it was a chicken she killed until he finally broke down and admitted it was her baby
My best childhood friend. I've looked everywhere all over social media and yellow pages and whatnot, but I cant find a single trace of her. Her name was Mia, she had blond hair, and she was awesome. :(
A song I heard at a bar once while I was in Anaheim. I know if I could hear it I would remember it.

In my old house I lost 2 rings. An engagement looking one that was really a cubic zirconia that cost about 20 quid and a lotr one ring in silver. Lost them both to either the hoover or elves. Really would love to get them back.
A book that I bought in October 2002 from 99 Cents Only Stores and then donated to a library.
I don't remember the title, author, or story. The only thing I can recall is that it was a young adult fantasy, somewhat short in length, that might have involved the main character being unable to move past an invisible wall. One would think that a book as forgettable as that should simply be forgotten, but no. I am obsessed with finding this book because I cannot find it, and the hunt thrills me.
I also remember liking the book, but it is baffling how I could forget so many details about a book that I apparently liked.
The name of the horror film Werner Herzog says he watches in the beginning of "Conquest of the Useless".
Early in the book he describes a horror film, but doesn't name it. I come through the synopsis in all my books and online, and email folks, but cannot figure it out.
A poem, I tried to memorize it as a kid, only succeeded in memorizing part of it, then lost the book, the beginning goes "loves a kind of madness or so some people say, it could be true, since I met you, nothing's been the same. I grow quite absent minded, I wander in a daze through city streets and green retreats of hill and wood and stream...." and I can't remember the rest. I've tried looking for it to no avail. It's driving me nuts.

A girl named Tanya Cooper. When I was a kid in New Hampshire there was this girl who had a huge crush on me, even telling me on a daily basis how much she loved me. Me being in the "girls are icky" phase of my life, I pushed her away and tried to just be friends with her. I was a dick to her, though, and everyone else bullied her because of her crush. I remember one day she came into class with a crown made of vines. Everyone in the class, including myself, pointed and laughed at her. She burst into tears and ran out of the classroom. I don't recall ever seeing her again, but I wish I could so I can say I'm sorry for being a fucktard as a kid. :(
A box of cereal with the cereal being modeled after a UFO(?) I only ever had one box of the stuff, but it tasted good. Kind of like Captain Crunch if memory serves me right. No idea what it's called, but I never saw or ate it again.
Information on my grandfather's WWII service. My dad never really knew his father (my grandfather passed away when my dad was 10) and his mother never told him about his father's service. We know what unit (if that's what it's called) he was in but we don't know exactly what he did or where we went. We tried writing to the National Archives but apparently there was a fire a number of years back that destroyed the section of documents my grandfather's information would've been in.
These jello cup things... I experienced them once visiting family friends, in Florida IIRC, and I couldn't stop eating them.
They were semi-spherical (or hemisphere) individually packed "cups" that you would peel the top off of and slurp the gelatin out of... maybe it was actually fruit. There were all kinds of flavors of fruits and all tasted amazing! I have looked for them since but I cannot find them - this was over 10 years ago.
So in 1993 the Cal Men's Octet made a Cal version of the Oompa Loompa song from Willy Wonka. I cannot for the life of me find a recording of it anywhere (video or audio). It's big game week so I'd really like to find it.
I live in Kentucky and I've looked in Tennessee as well. I've also been to North Carolina since then and still haven't found them. If you have them at your Kroger, I consider you a lucky person. Haha

The song I nearly went mad to while under nitrous for surgery at the dentist. The doctor said he forgave me. I assume I threatened to actually murder/do even more horrible things to him while swearing if he didn't change the station.
My only memory of the music I have left unsuppressed is "I get you get you to love you...all I know is to tell you to hold you tight..." But that is likely a slurring of lyrics. I felt like I was literally dying and it was mostly the song.
ANY recording, audio or video of the full show of "Dear Friends - Music from Final Fantasy" performed by the Chicago Pops Orchestra at the Rosemont Theater, February 19, 2005.
I don't care what it is, or where it is or what i have to pay for it, I just can't believe for one second that there exists no recording of this event whatsoever, and all I want to do SO BADLY is participate in the capitalist system and give someone whatever monetary compensation they desire to have a copy of this VERY special event in my life. That's all. There exists absolutely NOTHING that I can find. I've searched for years.

I read a book in 2007, written by a kid of about 12 years old. This was not his first book. It was written in first person (i think) about this guy that goes to war with martians. On mars?

A diagnosis for my chronic pain issue :( Year two and we've crossed several things off the list of "it-might-bes" but still no diagnosis, or treatment for the pain until I GET a diagnosis. Just sitting in extreme pain every day.
Waay back when during like 1999 or early 2000 my family finally got a computer and internet installed in our new house and there really wasn't anything to do on the web except chat and read stories that people would write up and post on various forums. I remember one story I read featured a guy stuck in a zombie apocalypse with his sister and constantly having a mysterious voice call him from various phones from the places he ends up giving him advice. At the end, it's revealed that there were no zombies after all and that he doesn't even have a sister, but was in a coma and the voice on the phone he was hearing was actually his doctor talking to him when he was inside the coma.
I just remember it having some extremely poignant ending line and being super feely and it always stuck to me for some reason. After years or trying I cannot find the slightest mention of it anywhere even with waybackmachine. I've accepted that it's probably lost forever like a lot of that old stuff back when.
Not for years, but for a while. It's actually a book I want to read for work: Quella Bottega di Via Montenapoleone by Aldo Lorenzi.
I know the publisher and the ISBN, but it's out of print. I tried an online "out of print book" eBay-type site, and no luck. No copy seems to exist anywhere near me, and I don't exactly have the funds to go to Italy to track down a copy.

I'm looking for a book that students were given when they left a school in England. It was filled with poetry. This is from the '90's. The school was a little school in Northampton, England. I can give me details if anyone can help.
The worst part is, I was given one when I left even though I wasn't in the right year to receive it. My copy had an inscription from my favorite teacher. I think my parents have it somewhere, but I don't know where after moving from England to the US and then to NZ. I just want another copy of the book.

Sometime around 2005 I was listening to one of my sister's CDs. There was this song on it that began with a rescue team finding a group of people trapped in the mountains. There were sounds of helicopter blades and a woman screaming. If I remember correctly, they were talking about how the group had resorted to cannibalism. Then the song started. Pretty disturbing stuff, but I've always wondered about it.

On Fridays, my 5th grade math teacher read from a book of riddles and wouldn't read the next one until we had solved it. It had riddles such as: a man using a block of ice to commit suicide, etc. Has anyone heard of a book like that?

I saw an anime/movie at an electronic store (possibly fry's?), where the main character had giant red wings and was flying away from a giant ball of energy (not sure exactly what it was).
A movie scene that is a cartoon (Although my friend who also has this "memory" argues that it is not), and I have a feeling that the characters are dancing on a bridge, but the biggest puzzle piece is the fact that All You Need is Love by the Beatles is playing in the background (That horn part I'm sure y'all know).
This could be a complete sidetrack thing, but I remember it being on my big old TV that used VCR tapes, and I associate it with a Tom and Jerry themed thing or Oliver and company.
The alternate ending to Fight Club.. I swear I saw an ending where the the explosions never go off.. He wakes up and says 'I won'... Happy ending, roll credits.. I'm not saying it's a better ending, just it has to exist.. I saw it.

There was a Youtube video that I thought was hilarious that I could never find again. It was stupid and just a loop of Luigi from the Mario and Luigi show, but it sounded like he was saying "latercats" over and over but if you listened to it in different ways you could hear him say different phrases. Could never find it again after hours and hours of searching:(
I've spent all my life looking for a Master. Kinda like Karate Kid, but as I'm interested in everything, he could be a master of anything. Then I'd dedicate a few years to him, mastering his art and learning as much as possible.

There was a music video I saw once - an indie band playing with a female lead singer. It ran in a weird sort of stop-motion reverse. It was set at a masquerade party. Had feathers falling down at the end. For the life of me I can't remember who it was or what it was called.

Not FOR YEARS, but I have been looking to get a copy of Conker's Bad Fur Day on Nintendo 64. I love that game so much and I miss it, it brings back memories and I want to make everyone play it with me so they can love it too.
I know there are some on eBay for ridiculous prices that I do not have the money for, so until then I will continue looking on Craigslist and flea markets and stuff. And if others can point me in other directions as to where I could find it, that'd be great!! :)

A multiplayer fighting game like Tekken or Mortal Kombat from the late 90s or early 00s. It had this one tall white dude with bright red hair you could play as. I think every other character was Asian. On the sudden death rounds, you played on a floating square and one of these sudden death rounds was set in an icy area.
It could be Tekken or Mortal Kombat, but Googling has given me nothing for the big red headed dude.
There's this game online, like a grid of squares that when you click on them, they turn white and pulse, and hit other ones. It made pretty cool sounds, but I haven't been able to find it since.
A recorded books incorporated unabridged reading of the three lord if the rings books. Each book of the trilogy was like 15 cassette tapes long and very well read, with voices and everything. My mom would check one of the volumes from the library to take on road trips, it was fantastic. Never found it again.
Crown City Rockers did a concert session of four songs for Pandora back ~2008/9. They've since deleted all of the old sessions from the site for some reason.

A book I read as a child. I remember bits and pieces. There was a kid who lived in an apartment block and he meets a weird spotty neighbour kid who kept tropical fish. He didn't want the neighbour to know where he lived so he told him that his dad owned the building or something and they lived on a secret floor that the elevator wont travel to. The kid was filling out applications for a boarding school and he decided to put details from the neighbour kid's life in the applications (like the tropical fish thing) and ends up being paired up as roommates.
There is a snl or madtv skit where an FBI agent or something knocks on a lady's door asking where her son is. She keeps replying that he has gone camping. I believe he murdered someone and eventually shows up in the scene. I have searched on and off for years for this scene with no luck.

I have this vivid memory of a movie that I have never found. It was animated. In it some evil wizard puts a necklace on a girl, which forces her to sing. When she sings it gives him power. They may or may not have been mice people.
My memories are so vague that sometimes I think it was a dream...
I read a book probably 5 or more years ago (by read a book it was just the beggining) about longboarding (possibly another sport of simular basis) all I can remember is the protagonist was female. And that when going down a hill somebody hit the side of a fire truck and died. Tried finding the book with no success. Help?
I've been looking for a short story I read on the internet years ago. I thought it was on McSweeney's, I though it was by Conan O'Brien. At this point though I've start questioning my sanity and thinking that it may have just been a dream.
The story is about a group of soldiers, possibly in Vietnam, that are really well read and philosophical to the point of being ridiculous. They have required reading and even the meat head idiot of the group tries to pipe in on the topics they bring up.
I thought it was funny. Every once in a while I'll try to find it. No luck yet. Someday... hopefully.
There was a counter-strike 1.6 frag video where the guy runs into upper B tunnels on dust2 and gets either a 4k or ace with a deagle all headshots, the video shows it all in slow mo. Haven't been able to find it in years.
When I was In Germany the first time, I ate a specific cereal that was delicious. It was little yellowish bowl shaped puffs and I haven't found it since. :'(
2 things I can't find: a bag of traditional mix munchies (it had quakers squares in it and it was delicious. And this old cartoon where a spaceship landed and there was think pink (maybe a different color) and it abducted forest creatures I think.
A video on Liveleak. It's footage shot through a peephole in the door at some apartment complex. Basically it's the old black woman shuffling back and forth calling the person filming a bitch on the other side of the door. Over and over again, I truly miss seeing this video.

There is this old anti-tobacco commercial from the 90's. It's a song and it start with "I would rather." Meaning I would rather do a, b, c, different things than smoke. The music and scenery was awesome and reminds me of my childhood... I need to see it again...
I loved playing it with my family when I was little and it's one of only a few fond memories I have of them. Occasionally there will be one listed online, but it's never in stock. To make matters worse, it's best to play with two decks.
I'm still looking for a way to download the old mechwarrior games (specifically mercenaries and black knight) but I've never been able to find a download since I had my old computer. I might try eBay soon as there's an iPad game I've been playing recently which really reminds me of mech warrior.

I know this thread is old so therefore this comment will get buried, but the only thing that i've been trying to find for years was an old program I used to play with on my old Windows 95 computer. It had a bunch of simulations on it, ranging from lightning storms to citys lighting up at night.
I remember you could use sliders to change a few things (speed, intensity, etc.) but it was soooo long ago that I might be imagining things at this point.
If anybody knows what i'm on about, i'd love for someone to at least figure out the name of it!

A recipe for blueberry-marshmallow ice cream by Baskin & Robbins.
According to my Dad, the had it when he was 8 or 9, so that would have been around 1961-3 sometime. He had it, loved it, went back for it as often as he could. It rotated out, and he never found it again.
He has tried to make it, I have searched online for it periodically since 2004, I even wrote the company. Twice. Didn't even get a generic form letter back. :(
It is one of the handful of things I look for every time I walk through the appropriate part of a store.
Tl;dr: Ice cream that my Dad loved, tried everything I could think of.

My lost shirt. It was my favorite, and my dad got it for me back in high school when he went on a ski trip with his buddies. It was a gray, long sleeved shirt from Big Sky, Montana, and the way they wrote it looked like a Coors beer logo. It was a really baggy shirt, which made it cozy, especially in the cold winter. I had it for a few months, and it disappeared. :( It was my favorite, and it still kind of is a little bit.

i haven't searched for it for years, but i remember playing an awesome racing game on my PC as a kid (windows 95) with cars that were possibly similar to nascar / touring cars, on normal-ish race tracks.. although i get the feeling one of them had a loop. i distinctly remember one car having a pink and purple paintjob but for the life of me i have no idea what game it was.
A commercial from the 90s or early 00s with an old woman and a guy in a car and the woman can't see over the steering wheel.
The dialog goes "I can't see!" "Raise the seat"raises seat "I can't reach the pedals!" "Lower the seat" lowers the seat "I can't see!" "Raise the seat", and so on.
My sister and I used to quote this all the time, but neither of us can prove its existence.
A SUPER old text-based game that I played on one of the first Macs. The mac I played it on didn't even have grayscale, just black and white pixels.
I'm pretty sure the game was called Vampire's Castle. It had pictures but it was text based, you could look at the picture of the room and write commands. There was a parapet that you had to tie a rope to. You had only a certain number of commands and then the vampire would wake up, game over. I got so far, I was in the room with the sleeping vampire but then I had to go home after the summer (was visiting grandparents) and never played it again. I played it in 1996 or so, it was old as shit then.

My wife and I were driving out of College Station, Texas, in 2008, listening to the local radio in the car. We're both pretty into heavy metal and punk, and the station was playing some rocking tunes.
Just as we hit the edge of town, this track came on that was BLISTERING neo-punk. Furious guitars, the vocalist was wavering between clean vocals and screamo, and the drums were a mile a minute. Great melody. Tight as hell. That kind of music that Rise Against has capitalized (we checked, it ain't them). We literally stopped chatting to turn up the radio and let this song blow us away.
We remember the chorus, sorta:
Now time is up my friend
And I'll see you again
(something something) defend
And I'm waiting for the end
After the song was over, the station immediately played something else that wasn't as good, and we missed the DJ naming the band later.
This song has eaten a hole in our brains, as we try to find it. The song, the band, anything, god damn it. But no - probably some college band that never got signed, and nobody has ever known which song or band we're talking about.
For the musical, the verse melody was an 8-bar 2nd E on guitar melody, kind of like what the Ramones used to do, with heavier distortion and faster picking. The chorus was: C - G - F# - A slide to G, 4 bar melody. (We both play music, and can hum the tune easily.)
[EDIT] Clarification: It was a band with two guitarists, a bassist, a vocalist, and a singer. The lyrics of the song were bittersweet loss and victory combined, an ode to someone saying goodbye to someone who has fought and won, only to die. We BOTH assumed it was Rise Against, but I own all of their discography, including extensive bootlegs, and this song is not in their repertoire - also, the singer of this song sounded like, but not identical to, Tim McIlrath. Same style, different vocal tone. Slightly deeper.

I once sent my girlfriend at the time a weird text passage a friend of mine had posted to his facebook wall. It said something about being at a restaurant with his girlfriend of three years and his mind starting to wander to what kind of underwear the waitresses were wearing. Long story short, I asked the guy's girlfriend what the passage was about and she said it was quote from a movie.
Long story short, my relationship with my girlfriend turned to shit and we broke up 6 months later. When we were breaking up, she told me that things went bad ever since I sent her that email about me thinking about waitresses. I was stunned. I realised I'd sent it to her with no context. She thought it was from me and never brought it up just let it simmer away and frame all my actions for 6 months.
Anyway, the relationship was dead and buried by then. But I've never found the movie or book or whatever that the quote was supposed to be from. Not friends with the guy anymore (unrelated) and it's been so long I'm starting to question how much of it is true.
This cake I had 9 years ago in 6th grade. It was white/yellow, moist or maybe it was the cream in the middle that made it that way. I have no idea what it could be, but I still think about it.

I will preface this with the chance that it was a dream, but I remember being in elementary school and watching a muppets movie about the dangers of drug use. All I remember was that it was a cartoon instead of puppets, and that there was a scene where the muppets became very small and were swallowed. If this is real I'd love to watch it again for the hell of it.

A video of John McCain saying the office of vice president has no real responsibility when asked if he'd take the position if GW won the election. It's the proof that he didn't have any plans for Palin to do anything.
There's a song called "Moonbeams". I can't find the album anywhere. It randomly gets posted and it is like an inside joke of indie music listeners. The lyrics are also super weird. Something like:

Okay, probably too late but we'll give it a shot: There was this painting that I saw I think at Musee D'Orsay, it was this huge canvas called something like "The fall of the old gods and the rise of christianity" and it depicted Jesus in the middle, surrounded by his disciples and the archangels as they beat the living shit out of the pagan pantheon. It was awesome, but I cannot for the life of me find it...

Ive been looking for my missing childhood best friend for about 2 years now. I can't put into words how important this guy is to me, he is 60% of my good childhood memories, and he was there for me for alot of really bad stuff that I had to endure as a kid.
2 years ago he completely disappeared, nobody knows what happened to him (including his family). I miss this guy so much that it brings tears to my eyes thinking about it.
Hopefully something turns up someday, until then I just hope he is alive and well.
Since about 2009 I've been looking for this French love song with lyrics "boum, boum" or something. Also tried looking for a few certain commercials with no luck.

2 years or so before 2012 there was this commercial on TV about this solar ray that's going to hit earth and to prepare. I've never been able to find anything about it since.
OK, so there is a movie called Erik the Viking by Monty Python's Terry Jones. When I was a kid my dad recorded it from television onto a vhs and I'd watch it all the time. It was a really brilliant movie. The current release, however (the "producer's cut") is completely butchered shit, but that's the only release I can seem to find, even on torrent sites. The bootlegged vhs is of course gone since I literally watched it to death, so now all I have are memories of a really great movie :(

An old friend from when I was a kid, Since I started using Facebook back when ever that was I would search for him from time to time but no luck.
I go to karaoke with friends sometimes. I've been trying to find Silverchair- Tomorrow. For 9 years I've looked. It's annoying because as a female, I sound just like the lead singer

I've got a couple!
1) a movie I watched in 2007, the first time I smoked. It featured separate groups of highschool kids, that all got into drugs and bad situations. One I remember vividly is a girl getting raped and walking bloody down the middle of the road. She then blew her head off (?) in her pink frilly bedroom. Another girl climbed into a hot oven and her mom found her later.
2) a techno song I heard in 2006 or so. An innocent girl goes from New Jersey to NYC to party for the night, and gets drugged (or starts doing drugs?) etc.
3) a tape I had in HS (like 2000 ish), the girl group was "red" something. Or maybe that was the name of the album?
... I lost my hard drive just after university, didn't think I'd miss all those songs so much! But now I can't remember anything for #tbt :(

A copy of OK GO's first album done in a lighter, more acoustic approach. There were one or two different tracks, and a bunch of ukulele. I pirated it off of Kazaa some time after Napster originally shuttered. I lost the CD I burned it to but I've never forgotten that album.
A large picture of Principal Onyx Blackman from 'Strangers With Candy'. In the show, there are Soviet era-style posters of him all over the school, in almost every scene. If you can help me out, would be very grateful. It's...for my bedroom. I can't say any more.

There is an Australian comedy movie called Ned, it came out around a similar time to the Ned Kelly movie staring Heath Ledger, however it was much smaller and comedic take on Ned Kelly. I have searched many times to find a copy of that movie but have never been able to.
The movie was directed and acted by Abe Forsythe.

Some old game I used to play on the computer, it was an egame compilation disk and it had games like Crazy Drake, and Wild Wheels.
It was fun as hell and no matter where I look I can't seem to find another copy.
Two things. One: a series of short story collections. I think they were called "Junior Reading Books" or something. I only remember two stories, and I think they were from different books in the collection. One about two kids with powers. One kid could DO anything they could think of, the other could KNOW anything. The other story is about a princess who says she loves her father more than meat loves salt and is banished.
Two: another book series I read as a kid about monster kids in school. All I remember is the vampire kid drank blood from a thermos all the time.

The supernatural. Angels in particular fallen or heavenly. I went so far as to walk straight into a 12 foot black angel looking demon shadow that shouldn't have been there in the middle of a streetlight. The soldiers in my platoon were shaking uncontrollably and freaking out. I had an assault rifle with me so whatever, I had to see if this was real. When I was in the center of the shadow looking out at members of my platoon it was like looking through a runway mirror. I could see them clearly, but they couldn't see me. They said I was fucking crazy and took another route around the building leaving me by myself to walk on to where I was going.
Coming back one guy grabbed onto the handle of my body armor as I walked through the shadow again. It was a shortcut. His hand was shaking majorly like he was having a seizure as I led him through the shadow.
All my life when I saw something spooky, instead of freaking out and running away, I would turn toward whatever it was and investigate it to see what it really was. No ghosts, angels or demons so far.

A painting in an art museum in Paris that was once a train station. It featured a bunch of literary characters and mythological and historical figures such as Aristotle and Zeus and Moses and all sorts of other people. It was a big painting and my friend and I sat there and tried to identify people in it for about 15 minutes. When we tried to take a picture of it or the information plate we got yelled at by security. It's bugged both of us ever since then.
These youtube videos of these college boys lipsyncing in their dorm rooms. They did some meatloaf songs and this rap song and they had neon green guns.

A YA book.
I think the teen boy witnesses a crime and has to change his name. Or something. He goes to live with distant relatives on a ranch or something. Dude meets a girl and becomes friends with her. Someone from his post life comes back and tries to kill him? There's a scene on a hill where the boy and girl look at the stars.
I think. I think those are plot aspects. It's been so long all I have are flashes of running away from danger, old relatives on a ranch, or not even relatives, just the people he moves in with, a girl, and a bad man.
An old copy of "The Escoffier Cookbook: and Guide to the Fine Art of Cookery" - Auguste Escoffier. I've searched in just about every old book store that I come across and have never had any luck. My Wife would love it and I would score some awesome husband points..
First edition or at least one that's had some love from a previous owner. You can buy it new but that's not the point. Also have tried for years to find a first edition Le Guide Culinaire by Escoffier with considerably less luck.
The earlier prints are hard to find. Super cool of you to even search, thank you. I will eventually, my wife has no idea how many random books stores I've gone into but the law of numbers will work in my favor eventually.
I hope so, after you've put so much effort into looking for it. :)

I watched some weird movie when I was a teenager. A few years ago it popped back into my mind and ever since then it's been driving me nuts that I can't remember the title of it.

A weird subreddit about a monster dude who hangs out in factories and might be an ARG for a band. It was mostly people exploring abandoned places, finding clues, posting them, and sometimes there's a monster. I don't remember anything else about it.
I'm probably really late to the party.
But there was a movie I saw a snippet of, and this kid was flaying his arms around yelling "I don't wanna" my dad was watching it but he can't remember the name of the movie.
Apparently the kid turned 13 and became a "teenager" and acted like a typical teen. The moment he turned 13.
Someone else who honestly enjoyed/enjoys the movie The Warriors of Virtue. My childhood was filled with dreams of a world protected by warrior kangaroos with elemental superpowers.,
The game where I first heard "Moonlight Sonata." I just can't find it. It probably wasn't a popular game, as I couldn't find it on any list of games with the song.
If anyone reads this it will be greatly appreciated.
Over 6 years ago I found a clip of LittleKuriboh and one of his girl pals doing a bad lip dubbing of 'Road to El Dorado' off the top of their heads, so you can actually hear them laugh at their own jokes as the movie progresses.
One line I will never forget is the girl giggles 'Ew, money!' when the two men drop into the barrels and one coin flips out of one of the barrels.
I've been searching and searching, but eventually I have given up. If ANYONE knows where I can find the original video please let me know!
This stupid book I had when I was a kid. It was about a pink unicorn that was teased for being pink, then something bad happened to the other unicorns and it saved the day and everyone loved it. It bothers the hell out of me.

a movie about foosball. I watched it when I was a kid and I can't find anywhere because I don't remember how was it called nor who was in it.

A book. I even tried on several r/book subreddits, and its infuriating me that I can't find it.
Just in case someone knows the book, here is the basics that I remember;
It takes place in Florida
Its about a girl being sacrificed by a cult
She has nightmares / hallucinations about the impending sacrifice
She moved to Florida to be with (other) family after trying to kill herself
I know thats rather vague, but I borrowed the book from my sister to read, and it got lost somewhere in one of our moves. I want to say the cover had this boat floating down a bayou at night?
I really liked the book and would like to read it again, but no such luck.
Was one of the subreddits /r/whatsthatbook? I find that one really helpful for finding old books with little info! I've been throwing it around all over this thread, lol.

Yeah I did try there a while back, but sadly there was no one there who knew which book I was talking about.
There was a commercial for the ford focus i think, it was driving around a European town. I remember the song being awesome, never could find it out. I would search all those adtunes or whatever they were forums. I did find some other good stuff as a result, for example it was around the same time as that VW commercial with the guy trying to get to the wedding to stop it, the song was "million miles away" still on my iTunes.

A detective short story that was in our high school text..
diamonds are stolen and detective is called.. he closes the door with all parties confined.. he successfully deduces the culprit being left-handed (or the other) contrary to what others think his preferred hand is.. the culprit had put the diamonds in a matchbox (don't remember how/where he hid it in the room they were)
I also remember some intro about the author that he was famous for his detective stories or for having created the genre or something like that.. I have searched online many times but no luck :D

A handful of games I played as a child. I wrote down what I could remember of them. I managed to find Castle of the Winds, but no dice on most of the others.
A cartoon that I used to watch as a kid. I remember that humans and aliens lived together in the show and during a particular episode, the main character and his classmates took a field trip to a black hole or something of that sort. Unfortunately, I don't have a good memory of any important details and will probably never know

An EDM trance type song some dude was playing when he pulled in next to me at the gas station 'you gotta keep the heater close' is the only lyric I can remember.
When I was a kid in the 90s I was watching MTV or whatever, and a song was playing and the video was weird and super creepy, kind of something like Aphex Twin would do. In the video there were two girls who were like aliens, and they were attached to each other by the head with a long, thick piece of flesh. I don't know what the song was, who sang it, when it came out or anything, I just remember that particular part of the video and that another song playing around that time was Teardrop by Massive Attack (so I would hazard that it was circa 1998 or 99). I've posted about it everywhere, including TOMT, twice, but I still haven't found it.
The name of a cartoon episode I once watched. It's about an old man who is accompanied by a dog to the beach. The old man is a total dick to the dog, and at some point their carriage is taken out to sea, where a giant octopus tries to kill or eat them, at some point the old man uses the dog as a float to try and reach the shore while the octopus chases them. It was fucking weird, never been able to find it since.

A replica of a musical clock my Grandma had in her room in the few years before she died.
I have the original clock, but I want to get another for my Mom as a surprise and I've never been able to find one.
It's a horribly cheesy clock, but my Grandma was going blind and the music was a way for her to tell that time was passing. The songs were familiar, so even as she lost her memory she could sing the words. I spent many, many happy hours with that clock.
It's a "City Scape" Melodies In Motion wall clock by Gustav Becker. I think my Aunt bought it at a religious store down south. It is gold and faux wood. On the hour the clock lights up and sings. It's the most gaudy clock on Earth. If there is ever a fire in my house, I'm saving the clock first because my Grandma loved it.

A commercial from the early 2000's where these Vikings were on a ship and they asked a blessing for the food and stuck a knife in a cheese wheel and said lets eat.
I've been trying to find a show I used to watch when I was a kid. I don't remember many details, but there was a dog/wolf who could pop his eyes out and make them float around to see in hard to reach places.
A video on youtube it was of a guy playing acoustic guitar, he was chubby with a beard and would press on the frets with both hands while knocking the body to compliment the sound from the strings
A Japanese movie from some time before 2006 involving a school, a mirror, a mirrored world, and dead athlete + his bandana. I can't really remember a whole lot about the details since I haven't watched it for so long, but it's not a horror movie.

A game called Crazyoid and all the other games from the same CD. I bought it in a pack of games called "Arcade Games for Windows" or something similarly vague at Staples when I was 8 or so. I still dream of playing this game and some of the others in that pack. I found a list of them, but can't find out how to download/buy a copy, or how I would even run a windows 95 game pack if I did.
Some sort of construction game. I vaguely remember it other than I was always so happy playing it. I was pretty young (puts the game early 2000's). Anyways i think you had to build skyscrapers but there also was this mini game where you would make sandwiches in your lunchbreak. You could put like nuts and bolts and ridiculous things in these sandwiches, it was the shit.
Another pair of my favorite dress pants from my high school years. We were poor and found them at Walmart. Most comfortable pants ever. I sometimes think Walmart secretly places amazing things in their stores randomly, but probably not.
The Silicon Graphics SG Indy and Indigo Linux OS workstations came loaded with a game that involved a first person view bouncing zen like game. The idea was to bounce on various colored, constantly moving tiles. Each bounce would take you up to the altitude of another level, and you could use the arrow keys to slew your "being" left or right, hopefully to bounce off a moving tile on this new, higher level of "nirvana". There was also some peaceful new age music that played in the background.
Anybody know a) it's name and b) if it was ever ported to any other platforms? Same question about the SGI flight simulator which utilized rasterized graphics for amazingly quick refresh rates and polygon counts.
This Cartoon Network mystery solving video game.. It was like all the Cartoon Network characters on this island and you have to solve all of these mysteries. Best game as a kid, notable for its super annoying music

I used to make mixed cds back in the early 2000's when I was younger. I had found this one song after searching for Beyblade songs, had a catchy tune and the end of the song was female voices chanting beyblade over and over. Lost the Cd and the song.
My english 101 and 102 professor. One of the smartest men i was ever in the same room with. I'm almost certain he passed away by now though...
A brown leather enyce jacket with white stitching that looked like it was made of a bunch of pieces sewn together. I had one when i was 18 and it was fucking beautiful.
There was a movie or show of some kind where someone said the words "diatomaceous earth." I remember hearing it when I was a kid. I have no idea what it's from.
Elementary school in the 1970's, one of those traveling book fairs came through and I bought a cheap book called "Gone Bananas" which was a cheaply printed paperback with newsprint paper that had single-frame comics inside.
I remember a few of them. A woman orders a pizza and the guy asks if she wants it cut into 4 pieces or 8, and she answers "better make it 4. I don't think I could eat 8"
Another one is a guy just standing in front of an escalator staring at it. Someone asks him, "what are you doing?" and he answers, "nothing, I'm just waiting for my bubble gum to come back."
The jokes were really bad, but hey, it was elementary school humor - and the seventies!

in the 80's, I sold my Commodore 64 and a couple boxes of diskettes to some guy across town in Houston, TX. A few months later, I realized that in those boxes of disks were my original source disks for a BBS program I wrote from scratch. I spent hundreds of hours on that thing. It was as close to flawless as a Commodore Basic program could be.
When I realized it was gone, I had no way to find the guy. Yup. That stuff is gone forever, for sure.

I can't seem to find this song that I heard several years ago on MTV. I don't remember the words but I kind of remember the music video.
It had the band playing in a hotel with people all around, though they were mostly in the lobby/pool area which were right by each other. That and the chorus didn't really fit. I think that maybe California was mentioned (really narrows it down right)?

A motivational poster, all text with no graphics that at one point said something along the lines of "if you're going to stab someone in the back, do it to get ahead" or a similar message. Maybe 7 or 8 lines of text. Had "fuck" in it a few times as well. Saw it back in college and have wanted it since.

Late to the party, but there's a chance someone knows what I'm talking about.
A girl named Meagan Day produced music under the name "Wisdom Tooth". Her latest album is still on Bandcamp (Somnambulist), but everything from "Cathedral Park" and before seems to be gone from the internet. I've gone quite deep into the internet, contacted some Dutch guy that she was recording with through twitter & I'm pretty sure I found her on Facebook based on some key details (her face isn't very visible on the pictures from her music days) but she didn't respond to my message.
It's so sad when good music disappears, that shouldn't happen these days. I'm sure the songs are scattered around on various peoples' computers, they're just not posted online in one place.
A movie. It was a cartoon, somewhat about a dragon. My memory is super fuzzy, all I can really remember is one part, and even that is not clear. I'm pretty sure it was a dragon egg in a castle, probably with people in the castle too. I think the people were trying to keep the egg from the parent dragons. I think they climbed up either a cliff or the side of a castle. The egg was hatching I think.
The main thing I remember was the mood. During that part it was really dark. Like, the movie (or show, it honestly could have been that) was animated in really dark colors, there was a lot of shadow, the dragons were mostly dark, like you could only really see detail on the eyes and nostrils. It may have been raining. I just remember it was really somber, kind of like the Night on Bald Mountain part of Fantasia, without the music.
I know, really not much I remember. But that image keeps coming to me, usually when I'm trying to go to sleep. I thought I almost had it once, but never got the whole thing.
I've been looking for this song for ages now. On youtube, there's an AMV of the shortened version involving Nico Robin from One Piece. The song is called "Where the clouds touch the earth" by Melies. I can't find this song for my fucking life and I loved the full version so much. It used to be on myspace, but the song was removed or some shit.
The recipe for a pflaumenkuchen where the cake part is neither too spongy or too shortbready. Somewhere perfectly in between, the way my mother made it. I've tried so many versions, I can never get it right.
My grandpa's school picture when he was in 4th grade is the cutest thing in the world. He's wearing a Roy Rogers t-shirt, and told me it was his favorite shirt for years.
I've been searching desperately for this shirt, or at least a copy of the image to print on a new shirt for him. So far, no luck.
Painting program for computer I used in elementary school, think of Paint but a step up. It was called something like Kid Pics or kid pictures. I've been looking for it, fave game as a kid.
This book I read as a kid. It was about a boy who was born with some kind of leg problem and he had to use those metal crutches with the elbow things. .. and I think he had a brace on one leg, too. It was about him and this friendship he developed with a very poor girl. I remember that she was living in a place where their furniture was milk crates. It ended with her and her family getting some sort of apartment with yellow walls. And going on that limited info, I have been not been able to find out what this book was called. I don't even remember if I liked the book. I just wanted to know what the title was! It may or may not have been British, and might have also featured a homeless man. I know that the dad in the story blamed he and his wife for the boy's disability. Something about marrying too soon?? And there was cop with a box of snuff. What the heck was this? What a weird sounding book! I need to know what the title is!
Not as recently as anymore, but when I was younger, probably like 8th grade, I stumbled upon this video, in the days of not totally knowing what porn was and just googling "sexy girls," and things like that
I know this probably isn't very lifechanging compared to some other comments, but there was a rap song my brother used to listen to sometimes, about a kid painting graffiti in a train yard and getting caught by a trainyard guard who he runs from and ends up hiding in a dumpster. Eventually the guard finds him and tells him something like, "here, you dropped this." and gives him the bag of paintcans he had left behind. I don't know if it was even that good of a song but I asked my brother about it and he can't remember what it's called and I don't have the CD that it was on. I also have no idea if it was a large or small artist who made the song.

A thin stew made of fish, vegetables, prawns, coconut milk, and four kinds of rice. I came close to madness trying to find it here in the States, but they just can't get the spices right.
Any pictures of me before I was 12, stuff about what my mom did 20 years ago, and a few friends from my childhood. I remember their names, but I don't really know how to look for them. Especially since you can't enter criteria in fb anymore.
This movie i saw when i was a kid, i have no idea what it was called but it was like a cartoon and it was trippy as fuck.
All i remember clearly about it is that the main "bad guy" was carried in on this massive podium carried by all these weird arse people.
I dunno why but i want to watch it.
Also some movie about a teddy bear who wakes up in a department store and does shit, i dont remember that shit he did but i remember he took a button off something and sewed it on his eye.
Black large boy crew socks, with grey thick bottoms that go from over the toe to up to the ankle.
My mom bought them on accident for my dad (getting boys socks instead of men's), but had them a while and couldn't remember the brand or where she got them. I'm female, but she knew I liked large boys socks because they are cheap and fit perfect, and I'm more utilitarian as opposed to fashionable.
I've had them years and they're finally wearing thin, they're great around the house socks, especially with hard wood floors in the winter. I tried to find them before even asking my mom, cause I knew she wouldn't remember. And years later with occasional searching, and now really looking as they're wearing out and getting holes, still no joy. Looking in stores (very occasionally, as I rarely shop aside from groceries), and I figure my luck with stuff they probably aren't even made anymore.

Flat Beef Jerky Sticks. I was a kid and used to get flat Jerky sticks and remember them being delicious. Older me feels like they were heavily processed, and they had a diamond/criss cross pattern. They came in a tube, but everything in a tube I find now is like real jerky, not the processed flat sticks that I used to love.
I can't remember much, I was around 5 years old so it was 15 years ago. It was about a girl who could see ghosts, there would always be some mystery to solve about it. I remember a specific episode where she was chasing a little ghost boy around in a bunch of dark hallways. That's it lol.
It's really just pissing me off cause I can't figure it out.

When I was in school, we watched this movie or tv show where at the very beginning there is this intricate contraption that has a marble that runs through it and it feeds a fish, and idk what else. That's all I remember about it and I've yet to ever find out 17 years later.
I can't remember whether it was a movie or a show, it was all puppets and all I remember is a scene where a prince or royalty of some kind was chained to a rock wall with what I guess were the main characters hiding watching, then the bad guys take a sword and kill him. I really want to know what this is from and how it ended

A music video from a rock band, from the late nineties or so. I believe the band was called Treble Clef, or something like that. The video was the band on stage, and other musicians would pop up on stage rocking out and dancing with them, like Avril Lavigne. However, it's been so many years, I'm not even sure if what little I remember is correct.
Today is my 6th cake day with this "new" account, and I've never seen this question. I'll answer: my college and high school pictures. They're all gone, no idea where they could have gone as I have all my other stuff from that era. Just one photo album is missing. I'm so fucking curious where it went, and sad it's gone. I'm almost 40, been searching for 15 years!

A guy who isn't either emotionally crippled and has mega mental/psychological issues and/or is a POS... or is a great guy but is gay. Nothing against gay guys. I've had many great friends who are, including 2 that have been my best friends at times. But for real... as a woman interested in men, it is infuriatingly complicated to find a decent guy without 10 million issues who isn't a liar/cheater/player/abusive/emotionally damaged/defective in some way, who is straight. It's like finding a unicorn. I'm looking for a mythical creature. If anyone finds one.. send him my way. sigh.
A singing and dancing James Brown doll thing. My dad had one when I was younger but unfortunately it broke. I've been trying to find another one for years.
There was a series of commercials where it was from a man's POV and he's going on and on about how he's a great giver and awesome at giving gifts and they all ended with him getting hit in the crouch and exclaiming "oooh right in the little giver!" The one I tender best is him on a good cart and someone his him with a golf ball.
I have never been able to find the commercials and only my family remembers them. I want to say it was for a brand of wine? Not very effective conceals if I can't remember the brand.
SUCCESS! After posting I started digging around again. Apparently I'm a bit more search savvy than the last time I looked. Not wine, a website called send.com

an awesome rap song i herd on college radio. the rapper was a woman. there was something about a hotel party. just not enough to narrow down the search.
A few years ago I was watching HBO or Cinemax, and this really odd cartoon came on and it seemed to be about a shoddily drawn cowboy in this really sexual world? Like the one things I really remember about it was that there were these tree things, but they were the legs of a woman, essentially moving up and down on the trunk of the tree making these sexual sucking, glorping sounds. It was the weirdest fucking thing I have ever seen, and I would love to watch it again and share this oddity with my friends.

On TV a very long time ago my mom was watching something with a weird little girl in an orphanage. She has just been admitted and a social worker of some sort was helping her. Anyway, one early morning everyone had to stop the little girl from continuously scratching herself. She had her arms crossed and was scratching her arms up and down for hours and I think they were all bloody. That's all I remember.

As a kid, I used to play this game where you were a character exploring in the rainforest. I don't remember much but I really vividly remember the many cutscenes that involved a long river.
If I recall correctly, it was animated. Think not Spongebob but like Madagascar.
I was watching some documentary on Satellite. It was about this mysterious creature that was killing people in the jungle. They never say what it was at least as far as I watched it. I think it was a Lion or Anaconda or something... But anyway my Satellite died and I missed the last 10-15 minutes where I assume they finally said what the hell it was. I could've swore it was titled Man Eater or something similar. I'm pretty sure it was on Discovery or National Geographic channel. I could never find it.. I even emailed them and they never responded back. If anyone has any idea of this program let me know. Btw this was probably 10 years ago. Btw it's NOT Man Eater: KILLER TIGER ATTACKS IN INDIA - the documentary I'm looking for doesn't even say what the creature is. They make it a mystery.
We used to play a C64 game in school 15 years ago - you were controlling some kind of tank or other military vehicle, it was a platform game and I remember that sometimes you were attacked from the air.

"You might think it's crazy,
but I'm a weather daisy,
And here's my weather song
Okayzee?...."
It was this super cheesy song video that would play on NickJr when I was little.
As an adult, I constantly get the song stuck in my head, but I don't remember all of the lyrics and it's slowly driving me crazy.
I can't find the video or the lyrics anywhere, even though I check google and YouTube every few months when the song gets inevitably stuck in my head again
I've been looking for a book I read in middle school. The story was about a boy's life between his preteen years to late high school I believe. In this story, he befriended a girl and they always hung out on a lookout of their city. The lookout had a big tree they hid behind. They were each other's firsts for everything. Then near the end of the book the girl admits not loving him anymore and moves on. The cover was a picture of a teenaged boy on a street with a lamp post.
Any idea?

There was some awesome world music channel with music videos from other countries and there was some balliwood, not sure if I spelled that right, type video I saw one night and I swear it sounded like he was singing about bannanas and it was amazing.

There was an old TF2 video titled "On Another Level", where a scout was escorting a payload through a tunnel guarded by an engineer and his level 3 sentry. The scout, being on another level hid on the farside of the payload as it slowly moved through the tunnel. NWA was blaring the whole time and it was glorious. I haven't found it since I was a little kid.
A specific pair of Adidas sneakers that I bought on a whim because they were on sale for cheap but they became my favorite pair of sneakers. Looked cool and were incredibly light and comfortable. By the time I realized I should be looking for another pair I had worn off any naming, labels, etc. to identify them. They were black, red, and yellow and kind of looked like a track shoe because they were very slim and had "spikes" on the bottom made of rubber. The spikes came up on the side towards the front a bit. I'm not good at describing things.

A game that gave me a level of fulfillment like mass effect did, the characters, the universe, the decisions, the whole thing. Chasing that high
A video I recently saw on Creepypasta about a human in a room. The human in the video had skinny body ,arm and leg,with a head like a newborn baby. He tried to stand up and fall everytimes. When fall ,he cried,which also sounded like a baby. The video is filmed in a living room. That video scarred me for life. The Creepypasta page deleted that video after too many comments
On the Newgrounds game section, I remember an electronic type song blaring at ear splitting levels every time I opened it. I have no idea what the song was but I'd know it if I heard it today.
There was this type of chip when I was a kid....Not sure who made it...probably lays. It had a shiny metalic bag that was orangish- I think it was called "loaded". Was the most fantastic chips I've ever had....been looking for them and can't find them.
Two things actually: the name of a band that redditors claimed to be actually 'known for being bad', 'funny because they're so bad' or something similar. There was a song included in the thread too but I could never locate it.
Also, I turned on the TV in a hotel once and it was playing a movie/TV show where a man was just sprinting (fully clothed, not porno) and repeatedly shouted "fucker, fucker, fucker" etc. Been trying to know what that was for 5+ years.
Anything that'd be a half arsed equivalent, to the taste of Pepsi Blue(discontinued in the US after the early 2000s, but allegedly still is sold in Mexico if I believe a report another Redditor said in another thread). Have tried looking for a lot of things to replicate the taste of Pepsi Blue(i.e. slushies at gas stations/7-11), but I've never found anything that quite totally satisfies that Pepsi Blue taste I loved.
And honestly, ways to better my luck with applying for jobs. I do all the normal ish when applying(i.e. dress my best, act polite to people who work in that company, even do at least occasional eye contact in interviews with hiring managers/supervisors, despite that I'm an introvert who in reality isn't very comfortable with eye contact), and it seems whatever I try to impress the person interviewing me for those jobs, it never works. :( They'd probably behind the scenes rather hire those with some sort of inside connection(i.e. family/friend of someone) to the person in charge of hiring, and it's sad. LOL, my curse on applying for jobs must be almost as bad(though not quite as bad, I've had a few rare successes like applying for the 2010 Census), as the Billy Goat curse with the Chicago Cubs!
Speaking of that, are there other decent applying for jobs tip subs on Reddit besides /r/jobs , and I guess one could also ask on /r/advice ?

Gonna repost this from a earlier thread
A TV series or a movie, where the only plot i remember was that they opened a room and there was a naked man with lots of red writings on him, in blood or red paint. They also found a dead person in a house during a summer day if i remember correctly. I saw it around 10 years ago, my parents had it on a VHS.
A picture from a swedish book about monsters around 7 years ago i think. It was a man sitting in a small wooden boat while fishing, and behind him there was this HUGE sea monster rising up from the water, i believe it looked either like a brown Serpent with a dragon-ish head, or like a gigantic seahorse, im unsure.

YEARS ago, christ, must be 5-10 years now there was this flash video of an oddly shaped creature, it was just a floating head with hands that were in no way attached, just floated with him, and had fucked up (mismatched sized) eyes and crooked teeth, that would chase this pink bunny and if memory serves me right, things got kinda industrial throughout the flash with gears and such, buildings and all. Anyway, this floating head guy with floating hands would go crazy, chasing the bunny with a hammer and such till ultimately he nuked the place, killing himself but not the bunny? I think? either way, near the end it showed the image of the skull of the creature that was trying to kill the bunny and one of the lyrics in the song that persisted through the flash was "Kill! THE FUCKING BUNNY!"

I had a stuffed animal/plush when I was younger, and I loved it. It was a Bunny, it had a little puff of hair between it's ears that I cut of (I was a kid...) and when we got it, it was on easter so it was holding a carrot. I cut that off also.
He had the little bean things in it's feet but it's body was mostly plush and such.
I loved him so much. His name was Babushka. I lost him and I cried and cried all day... I've been looking for his type for over 4 years (since I lost him) and I haven't been able to find one online anywhere. I ask random people quite a lot, still on the search for him.
While I look for what type he was, I've just also been looking for a substitute. I think I have about 40 or so plush bunnies I've bought over the past few years while looking for one, none of them were perfect like him. Just where to buy him online or something, or who made him, anything, I need him back... Maybe one day my search will come to an end...
Shit, looks like I missed this one, but if anyone knows what I'm remembering, I'd appreciate some tips. I'm going to describe it as best I remember it, though some details might be a bit off. I'd appreciate any leads because this has driven me nuts for years, and I've never been able to find out the name.
There was this old video game for Windows that took place in a jungle. It was a 2D game with old graphics; I probably last played it around 2005 or 2006 on an old friend's desktop computer. I want to say you played as a ninja. There were multiple platforms per level, each higher than the last, and you could climb ladders to get between them. (There may also have been vines to swing from platform to platform, but I'm not sure.) The enemies were little devils that you would have to defeat.
If any of this rings a bell for anyone, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks.

I'm devastated about it and my family don't know I lost it. It mostly has me singing lots of songs I learned at nursary and then I repeatedly ask my grandma if she will "record me now" which I thought meant 'play the tape back'.

I loved it because every time I looked at it I saw something new. . I thought it was Salvador Dali but I've flipped through pages and pages of his work and have never found it.

This one song, like a ballad or slower rock, I think it was acoustic and for some reason I think it's by Kiss. I listened to it many times in the radio, but never got the name of the song or the real artist. I don't even remember how it sounds, I've been looking for it for more than 6 years now.

I book I read as a teenager. Can't for the life of me remember the title but I remember it was a paperback and the cover was a blue sky and fluffy clouds. Swear there was a blurb about "unexpected" on the front cover.
Science fiction /cyberpunk theme.
Random shit I think is part of it:
Had to do with creating dreams. Think the main guy was being hunted. I think the hunters were thugs with motorcycles. Believe people could load into a virtual reality world and the main guy was one of the first to create the virtual world?
I had this awesome Nike sport like jacket, think of a fitted biker jacket without the leather and so many zippers and it had a neat textured rubber like ribbon going from arm to arm. It was stolen in senior year of high school, about seven years ago and my mom might have bought it the year before that, while I was rehearsing for a talent show. I set it down on the seats in front of us for 5 minutes during our dry run and then it was gone. People are the worst.
I remember seeing a movie when i was younger, It was 3 kids in a sewer climbing up a ladder, an next thing i remember was one of the kids joking push the other kid off the ladder and then i see the sewer hatch exploded I think they were escaping a monster or something

I am still looking for all Catscratch episodes in Dutch. They are nowhere to be found. English? It's available, here and there. Dutch is nonexistent. Nickelodeon has broadcasted them back in the day, but apparently they only have the broadcasting rights and not the distribution rights. They are not aware who do have the latter rights, though, and I can not find out. RIP favourite TV-show from childhood.
This music video of with scary people, like with monster make up, dancing around a house in the woods. The drum beat was dominant in the music. I believe it has the word "day" in the lyrics or title.

Video collection of 1969-1970 Minnesota Vikings season games.
I am looking for years a book to learn English. All I can remember is that the book is old, and it consists of 100 short stories, and each story will teach you one English lesson, like for example, story number 1 is about present tense, story number 2 is about past tense, etc.
I have been looking forever at all libraries I can visit, and I can still cannot find it! The only one had the book was the old teacher I attend at evening to learn about English, and they already passed away....

Song from mid-70's perhaps sung in British accent on fairly heavy rotation in the midwest US. Included lyrics spoken/sung while background music low in volume "blah in compromising tones... blah blah" <massive guitar solo>. Never heard again after that year - what the hell was it?? Rare Cream thing?
Trying to find out the name of a toy from my childhood.
They were little plastic animals (fits in your hand).
They were heat sensitive so if you rubbed them on the freezer door etc. their paws would turn red (like blood) & when you warmed them up it again the red disappeared.
They were marketed for kids who wanted to be vets when they grow up/help animals. I have tried every combination of words on google and can't find them. ANYONE remember the name of the toy/where to find-even a picture/are they still made? Might have come free with a magazine or something?

Carpe diem gingko. its a drink by a small company and they stopped producing it in 2009, i have been searching for a remaining bottle since then. if anyone has one PLEASE CONTACT ME!!!
My very first online friend. I cared dearly for her and all I would like to know is wether she's still out there, still alive or wether my online search was in vain all these years.
Me and her, we had a rather small fight but I took it personal and cut ties for a while. When I wanted to get in touch again, there was no way to contact her. Neither through ICQ nor via phone and I lost my old cellphone with her number. I still remember her ICQ number though, the city she lived in 7 years ago and partially her full name. Several attempts at contacting friends we shared went unfruitful and I honestly doubt that she's still alive - she was kind of unstable mentally.
If, by any miraculous chance, you read this Oiichi, please please message me. I miss you :(

As interesting as it is, I'm skeptical as shit to that - since I've never found trace of the series ever getting an official DVD release. Of course things might have changed since last I checked around, but even so... skeptical.

A British TV advert. It's a cartoon of a bird running around looking for something. I can't remember anything about the ad other than that fuckin bird and the fact that I loved the music. It had a kinda fast paced happy electronic tune. I really want to know what that song was, and I occasionally look for the ad, but since I can't remember who put the ad out I never have any luck. It was shown on TV about 15 years ago.
It was a flash game that allowed you to play as Godzilla or other monsters as you went through the stages and game. 2D scroll along sort of thing. It had a retro style like Nitrome games but it was something from before 2012 for sure. Scoured the net since I was a kid.

Late to the party...but hoping this gets read and poss solved.
Looking for the recipe to a "Wine and Spice" marinade from Freedom Meat Locker in Freedom, Ca.
They won't give it out, they won't sell it. They used to sell the marinade but can't now due to state law. I have tried copying it, but I'm always off.
I would buy their marinated flank steak and tri tip, but I live in Texas now...and it's extremely to ship.
I've found links and forums from people looking for it, even found some links that looked like it was the recipe, but they were 404'd. I even tried looking at those links thru wayback machine and nothing.
help.

There's this movie I watched as a child that revolved on something disgusting coming out of faucets and showers that looked like pasta which would then enter a person's body. And I remember the last scene being they got out of that place via helicopter where almost everyone was brain-dead only to realize that the baby they were carrying had been infected. I think they had to throw him/her out.
Was it darkly humorous and violent? If so, then it was probably Slither (2006).

This spoken word song / artist, found it on MySpace years ago and it has since been lost to time.
Iirc the song is about a guy who sees a 'for a good time call' and he talks about getting change and then using the store's phone booth to call and I think the girl answers and maybe someone calls back saying they're the husband...it gets fuzzy on the particulars. I've tried googling for years to no avail. I think the story or artist are in Texas....

An album of jazz music that I never had the name for. I thought it was so beautiful. I can hear the chord progression of the lead piano in my head, but it doesn't translate well to humming and even if it did I can't imagine anyone would know what it is. It seems strange to feel a sense of loss over music!

I searched for this song for years with nothing but a vague recollection of the words. Finally found it in Sam Goody (They went out of business.)
A comic, I made a post about it at TOMT but no luck: I think the comic starts with the rich folk replacing body parts with robotic enhancements, and slowly the middle class and poor people do the same. then they turn themselves off, so they would wake up in a better future.
but it turns out everyone has the same idea so they all wake up to a barren earth because everyone was deactivated for so long.
I once saw this stand-up comedy of this (British; shaved-head?) guy comparing the tickly, satisfactory feeling of a Q-Tip in the ear to a blowjob, and described how he was once receiving a blowjob when he found some Q-Tips next to him and proceeded to twist it in his ear while moaning, then pretending to hold the girl's head moaning, to then note that she was frustrated, hyperbolizing her frustration by putting the mic in his mouth and making a feral, aggressive stance, hissing like some sort of reptile.
There were these ads in Australia around 10 year ago. 2 kids were sitting on top of a hill eating a snack when one of the kids asks "What's with the twist?"
However, every one of the ads had something different. A voice would always be heard shouting "Never mention the twist!" and something bad would happen to the kid who had asked the question e.g gets kicked by a walking shrub. The commercials were hilarious when I used to watch them on TV with my siblings, but I've never seen the ads since then.
My favourite YTP of all time got taken down for copyright infringement. It was called Marge and the Funny Whelk and it was just a YTP of the first harry potter film. I've tried so hard to find it hosted on another website but I just can't find it anywhere.

its kind of late into the thread now, but if someone can find this song I will give them gold. I've been looking for the song for YEARS and once found it on a MySpace page like 3-4 years ago but haven't found it since. I can't remember the name or band but I know that the first line of the chorus is "your favorite song is on the radio, and.." and its pretty upbeat. it must have been done by some small band because it was on MySpace but not Youtube at the time..

I really hope someone sees this post and is able to give me an answer, so I can finally have closure after all these years.
It's a music video of a boy band singing with a blue background behind them. Blue, as in there's probably a pool behind them reflecting the sky or something. It's probably night time in the video.

I once knew a lady called Liz, who I went to uni with, and who I lived with for a year after uni. I tried to stay in touch with her, but she was the sort of person who would lose her mobile phone every couple of months and just get a new number, or forget her email password so just make a new email address. As such, I lost touch with her. I have successfully tracked down so many people from my past using information from their digital footprint, but I have never been able to track her down because her digital trail goes blank in around 2009. I have no compelling or urgent reason to find her again. I just want to say hello and see how she is getting on in life, cos she was a good friend.

Never found it again.

The scan of a really old Silver Age Superman comic where he broke his legs falling down the stairs.
A book. I don't know the title, but I had it when I was a child. It's about pirates and piracy, with loads of etchings and woodcuts, and detailed pages of biography and history. Detailed pages of flags. One image especially struck me, of a Chinese man blowing himself up with a little etched speech-bubble (banner, in this case) that says, "since I cannot conquer these wickede pyrates, I shall blow myself up!" I have literally searched for years.
A place to buy figures from the Fistful of Aliens toy series. My brother and I loved them as kids and I've wanted to get some for him as a gift for ages. However, the company making them went out of business and the only place I've been able to find any is ebay for way too much money.
A book series I read in my pre-teen years. I can't remember the author, title, or anything helpful. Just that the covers all had an area on them that was a shiny silver and I spent a long time going from library to library in the area trying to finish the series (which I don't think I ever did).

A facesitting video on youtube years ago. It two lesbians with the one doing the sitting was wearing jeans. The sub was wearing pink I believe. I think that there was more than one video, or that a single video that was broken into a couple of parts.
There was this in-browser game that I used to play. It was completely in Japanese, but your goal was to upgrade things in a different order so that you could get the best result. It was an island and if you made the right decisions your little character would fall in love and have kids, or he would build a circular road, go to space, etc.

A website that people can play Tetris against each other, I've found a similar one but not the one I'm looking for
There was a video back in the early 2000's of a girl doing a striptease to the Paula Cole song "Feeling Love". It was a really good striptease but, I cannot find it anywhere anymore.
That one game from my childhood. It's from around '99 I think maybe early 2000ish. It was a point and click adventure and the main character was a cartoonist. It was a strange shuffle between 2d comicy animated style and real life filmed sequences. The main character switched between world's, the real life and his own comics, I think. I think you started in a castle where you get a backpack with unlimited space. I don't remember more.
Someone who has seen the movie, Monsters In My Pocket. It was a shirt straight to VHS cartoon movie. It was about a child who has monsters in his pocket. I ask an inordinately amount of people if they have seen it.
The source of this image I used as a portrait for Baldur's Gate back in the day. I had a friend that said it was from a book and he told me the name, but we have both forgotten it since. The site that hosts it doesn't provide sources so I have no clues from there either, which is a shame because they have a lot of good portraits there. I would love to read the book and get a higher res version of the picture so I can use it in BG:EE, not to mention the fact that the original sources should be cited regardless.
Wow, thanks. I guess it wasn't a book but the picture as a whole looks great and I'm glad I finally know who to give credit for a picture I used for at least a hundred hours of gameplay.
2% chocolate milk. I had it once in a pizza place on a road trip about 10 years ago. I don't even know what city it was in, and I haven't found that chocolate milk since.
A commercial from the eighties. I think I've probably mentioned it before.
I think it was a pain reliever commercial. The only thing I remember about it is that symptoms treated by these meds were circled in red on the back of its box.
It was very similar to this, but I'm not sure this is the exact commercial that I'm trying to find: https://youtu.be/YimkwPu_oMc?t=8s
This commercial may be one of the first ones I remember.

There was a toy helmet I had as a kid. It was mostly green, with yellow accents, large grey tubes that connected to the sides and red bubble lenses. It looked very insect-like. I had it in the mid-1980s and have never seen another one.
There was this one game I played in my early teens, maybe 2005-2006ish where you played an alien in a suit with a jetpack. You had a little blaster gun. You could jump around really high with the jetpack and explore the world, occasionally shooting guys. It wasn't very linear. I got to a point where you rescued more aliens and began building little buildings, but didn't get further than that. I loved the hell out of that game and haven't ever been able to remember the title.

Anyone know of this game? I need it for my ultimate nostalgia trip...
Ugh, well, there was this music video I saw ages ago that I simply can't find today. Anywhere. I've been looking and looking and it's driving me mad. I only remember bits and pieces, but it started with some guy in a mohawk in a black background licking a pane of glass :P
Later on in the video there's some guy with colorful hair a colorful suit which kind of stereotypes and exaggerates disco fashion. The mohawk guy and the disco guy end up getting in some fight of the ages or something.
A Playstation One game or demo I remember it was on a playstation one demo disc, it had a few other games on it. I'm pretty sure it was like a pink haired guy or girl, a cavemen going around on rocks jumping up and killing bugs I think.
Mellow Yellow Melon. I had a bottle of it once when I was a kid and it was the best pop I've ever had. Only ever found it once, and no one else even remembers it.
That is very strange. Perhaps there was somehow a bottle left over? Good luck finding it!

I'm still searching for that music video where a man dressed in a chicken was hunting another man, eventually captured him (The other man fell) and eat him with ketchup.
A TV program about some guys who fought each other in robot suits. (Mech warrior type of things). If I recall correctly it was in some kind of arena. Still not found the program I'm after...

My best friend who moved out of state with his family in the 5th grade. Every few months I do a cursory search (Facebook, Google, etc.) but I'm not expecting anything. I asked my parents about this several years back and their response was "we don't know but wouldn't you rather reconnect with [insert rando I barely knew]?" No, rando doesn't know where my friend went either.

So there was this song I heard on LGBT day on tumblr back in 2013 and all I remember was "You got the spark, kid" "But change he to she". The song was about how love songs have to be heteronormative to sell.

The track list of a cd called Total Hits Vol. 1 released by the Colombian record company Sonolux. It was released around 1995 and had tracks such as Saturday Night by Whigfield and Everybody by DJ Bobo. I've been looking for the track list for almost 15 years.

A Birthday Cake (from the mid 80s)
I grew up in a very small town with only one mom & pop grocery store. The nearest chain grocer was 45 miles away. Our little town didn't have a bakery, only one restaurant bar and three gas stations. Each year on our birthday, my mom would buy us a birthday cake from the frozen food section of our little grocery store. This was a tremendous treat because we were used to having box cake each Sunday at the church potluck.
Even though this cake was frozen, it was a remarkable treat! The cake was white with white frosting, double layered and approximately 8-9 inches round. The top was decorated with 5-6 edible sugar candy flowers that were yellow, blue, and pink. Also on the top was a white, plastic, decorative plate with the words "happy birthday" written in red cursive. There were also 3 plastic smiley faces --2 blue and 1 pink.
I can't remember how the cake tasted, but I've searched for it for years because sharing one with my kids would bring back some special childhood memories.
This is probably really late, but there was a computer game I used to play as a kid called "Jump!" on addictinggames.com.
It was the coolest 3d platformer about a vacuum cleaner trying to advance to the next level.
But one day I went to play it and it was gone. The link was there, but it redirected to a different game. I started looking on other websites to see if maybe addicting games just simply took it off but had no luck. I even found the website that originally made the game and sent them an email asking about it years later. They never responded.
I don't think I'll ever find this game. It was the best damn game I've ever played and I didn't even get to beat it. If anyone knows anything about "Jump!" any information would be much appreciated.
This one fucking TV show I watched a long time ago.
Seriously, I've been searching for it for so long and never seemed to come across it. It's some kind of horror/weird psychological show that really had me hooked, and the endings almost never satisfied me. The show's main thing was that there is this beautiful white vacation house that different people would rent or whatever every summer. However, every time people would stay in that house, weird [usually supernatural] things would start happening. For example: in one episode, some witch kept kidnapping people from the house and the next day, nobody except the main protagonist would remember that person.
Please somebody help me figure out what this show was called. PLEASE!
EDIT: If it helps, I watched the show in Arabic, but idk. I feel like a show like that should come in English, too.

A videogame, mid 90's, early 00, which i think it was a point and click adventure or platformer (2d), with a blonde kid standing in front of 3 doors/portals wih different colors in a castle like room. And i think one od he doors led to a pier thing, with a lighthouse.
This freakin' violin song. It's one classical song out of the millions out there. It sounded so pleasing to my ears. It was a bit like hearing those sad violin songs when a heroic person dies. It helped me fall asleep so many times, and it had "Rainbow" somewhere in the title and something similar to "JJ" as its artist. I hope one day I hear it somewhere.

I'm late to the party but I saw an illustration of lumpy people in t-shirts that read, "T-shirts are flattering to all body types."
Still makes me laugh when I think about it. I've never been able to find it again, though.
when i was a little kid (in the 90s), my little brother and I had this VHS tape. In retrospect, I guess it was an instructional yo-yo videotape. But for us as kids, it was magic. The Yo Master could do all sorts of yo-yo tricks and he could do them IN SPACE! For some reason it was really formative for both of us, and I just know the internet would love it. But I haven't been able to find the video anywhere, nor any reference to the Yo Master at all.
Any ideas on how to dig this up?

Back in the day in Canada we had a show. It was called Short Circutz. It was on YTV and was a computer animated series of different little films to fill in the gaps between Reboots or whatever. I loved those. I remember a few, one with fish, one with a dancer. I've found a couple but there must be dozens. I hope I can find them all someday.
This book from when I was a kid. It was an illustrated book of short stories and I can only remember one story from it.
There was this beach with a bunch of tall standing stones. Sometimes for whatever reason the stones would get out of their places and walk away and then come back.
Under the stones was a treasure that this greedy magician wanted. He waited until the stones started walking then jumped down in the holes and started to take the treasures. It was during a big storm and he couldn't get out of the hole with the treasure fast enough and the stones came back and they crushed him while he was still in the hole with the treasure.
I would kill to know the name of the book, or ever of that one story.

There was a short film I saw once, back when the internet was new. A guy's friend sends him a link at work, and when he opens it, it's horse porn, right as his boss is walking by. He gets fired for being a horse cock fanatic, goes home, hurts his dog accidentally. Tries to give it cpr, right as his gf walks in and she think's he's molesting the dog. She throws him out, so he goes to his parents. Despondant about his shitty luck, he decides to hang himself in the basement. As he's doing so, his parents walk in and interrupt what appears to them to be a the ol' choke n stroke instead of a suicide attempt. They are DISAPPOINT.
A story on reddit about bad roommates, where the bad roommate is a good roommates girl friend, i think one of the roomies is an amazing Cook and lives in the basement portion of the house, bad roomie keeps eating food she's not supposed to and Cook roomie kicks her ass out, not sure if it was a college roomie situation or not but i loved it and it made Cook roomie out to be a badass
Meaning in the modern world, something I could be serious about without people laughing at me behind my back. Nothing so far.

It was a PlayStation one game :(
All I remember is that it was loosely based in space and it was a racing game. It was kind of cartoonish and there was different characters to play as. There was like a rocket dude and other such things. And each car was unique to the person :'(
This will probably get buried but I have been looking for a flash game where you start as a grey mannequin but evolve into different creatures as you go through different environments. If I recall correctly I believe it was french.
An artistic collaborator. Someone prolific with traditional commercial and industrial design illustration skills who can keep up with me intellectually, sharing my futurist interests. I long had dreams of creating the Man Will Conquer Space Soon! for the 21st century, maybe developing a video and a traveling walk-through exhibit, but it's just not possible. The artists for such a thing just don't exist anymore. They don't have the interest or the science-literacy. I've largely given up, banking any possibility for this on the advent of future AI based image generation technology.

Also this sci fi book series. I was probably reading it around 2005 or so but it was already older then that.
It had the fates, time death all as a person, intertwined in the world. I literally can't remember much else then that. It was super cool
A picture of a Platinum blonde girl with these incredible blue eyes, mouth open in shock, and a smattering of cum on her chin and cheek. Probably the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. I saw it on some porn site in the early 2000's and was never able to find it again. Teenage me forgot to right click and save. I'm 31 now and still try some porn-fu every now and then but have never been able to find her. She is to me what Moby Dick was to Ahab. I hope and dream to see her again someday but with the limited keywords available I'm afraid it will never happen...
The full video of the 1995 Oscars ceremony. What a fuckup...Letterman KILLED it and no-one notices, while an embarrassment like Forrest Gump sweeps and ppl rave.
The year was 1968. We were on recon in a steaming Mekong delta. An overheated private removed his flack jacket, revealing a T-shirt with an ironed-on sporting the MAD slogan "Up with Mini-skirts!". Well, we all had a good laugh, even though I didn't quite understand it. But our momentary lapse of concentration allowed "Charlie" to get the drop on us. I spent the next three years in a POW camp, forced to subsist on a thin stew made of fish, vegetables, prawns, coconut milk, and four kinds of rice. I came close to madness trying to find it here in the States, but they just can't get the spices right!
I want an office phone (or any phone) that has a keypad in the order of a 10-key, like on a computer or a calculator. Years ago, I did a lot of cold calling and 10-key data entry, and having them opposite each other was the bane of my existence. I no longer am in that boat (still do data entry, not so much cold calling) but it's still my white whale.

Okay, this'll probably get buried, but whatever, worth a try.
It was an anthology of comics. It was a large book, very thick, like think a good 600-1000 pages thick and maybe the size of your standard comic book. It was put together and sold for charity, though I can't recall which one (this would have been back in the early 90's, possibly even the late 80's since I got it second hand, I recall seeing images of kids in Africa, so think one of those charities, I bought it in the UK). It had a tonne of comics in it, a batman, a superman, an Archie, a Tintin, loads, all from different publishers.
Would love to know if anyone knows the book I'm talking about.
There is a short story about a boy who is abducted by an automated alien vessel. He goes on to explore a bunch of alien worlds that are empty. there is a robot that transforms into a companion to keep him company. It was a short story in a collection that I read randomly in the school library in college. It was an old book but I don't remember if it was an anthology of a specific writer or a collection based around a central idea. I thought the author was Heinlein but I have had no success finding the story either as if it was written by him or just on its own.
The Starman Tin Badge mentioned in this post. I was a HUGE Starman fan when DC released all this merchandise, and I got the watch, the pin, and the action figure, but I was never able to find the badge ANYWHERE. This link, which was four years old when I first came across it and is now from almost seven years ago, is the closest I've ever come to even seeing one.
And while we're on the subject, I lost my Starman cloisonne pin years ago. I haven't been able to find one of those, either.
It was on television though; I was flipping through the cartoon channels (I was 7 at the time so I only go through cartoon channels) when suddenly in the channel where Disney was supposed to be, it were a white couple fucking in a public bathroom instead. I was confused at first, but I was suddenly aroused. Maybe it's just me wanting to feel like a child again, or just me chasing the feeling of nostalgia.
I saw this now photo on Ifunny that was a short comic about a big guy getting bullied at work and just looking miserable. He then comes home and reveals there is a woman tied up in his closet, he then eats dinner with her and snuggles her in bed before putting her back in the closet and going back to work. I could never find it
I can't find this 90's music video I saw where the band was performing in an apartment and using a phone as the microphone. It was hanging from the ceiling and they kept hitting it so it was spinning around. Idk it was pretty rad when I was a kid but yeah, can't remember who performed that song or what the song was called.
Also can't find the name of this book I read in junior high about a young man who's in the military during World War II I think? Becomes a spy alongside this real hot lady spy. I think it was young adult fiction, possibly based on a true story. It was very well written but definitely can't remember what the actual plot was.

I saw this floating around a few years ago, but looked like it was much older. I think it was a newspaper advertisement for art supplies, maybe Windsor & Newton (but I'm not sure on the brand)? The advertisement had an older man who looked like Doc from Back to the Future (but in a suit or something) sitting/lying on the ground with his head in his hand, and detailed how art is bad for your health - things like "Wasted muscles from standing at gallery openings", "Oily skin from too many canapes", ".... drinking wine", etc. I believe it finished with "So do art!" or something like that.
I remember really loving this picture and thought it was funny, but lost the link and have searched everywhere but haven't been able to find it.
Back in 2007 my husband and I had a bottle of Red Zin from Elyse Vineyards. I believe it was a 2004 maybe 2005 anyway I have been looking for this bottle forever and unable to find any.

A jazz song I heard in college. I know it's old but I don't know who wrote it and only remember one piece of the song. I am not musically talented nor versed in jazz music. Sometimes I YouTube "famous jazz song" and click tons of links trying to find it to no avail. I hope I stumble upon it one day....
I read a novel when I was a teenager that I always wanted to find again, not sure why but I do.
It was the story about a girl who moved to California to become a fashion designer and she was really struggling, but then she decided to take two pair of differently-colored tights/pantyhose and sew one leg of each together to make a pair with one leg one color and the other leg another color.
I remember a scene where she's in a public restroom and someone reaches in over the door of the stall and swipes her purse.
And then another scene where she's a paparazzi to make money and shouts "down in front, dickhead!" to another paparazzi.
It's so weird, the things I remember about this book, that I've always wanted to re-read it. I think the name of the book might have been her name which was something weird like "Jazzy" or "Goldie" or something like that.
Feh.

I am still looking for a commercial I watched many years ago. Think it was the TNT channel. The commercial starred a boy looking through a glass at some monkeys and then the monkey attacked the boy or something -- really dark stuff, can't remember more, though.
A copy of the picture of the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. It's in a forest trail, the woman is sitting on the back of a Vespa looking back at the camera. Poker straight brunette. Just lovely.
One of the people from the group I used to play runescape with. She went by Whisperer43 and when everyone quit runescape we lost contact. One of the other guys I played with managed to get in contact with everyone apart from her and I'm just curious how she's doing
Ross the Intern on the Jay Leno show going through a haunted house. It was seriously one of the most hilarious things I've watched. Can't find it anywhere. I even linked it on my fb years ago but the link doesn't exist anymore :(
I'm kinda late but there was an animation video that I saw several years back. It was like a video version of Evoland where the character was a green guy and he transformed from a dot to 8-bit and continued until he became a full 3D rendered character. He would transform every time he collected a star. And I'm pretty sure I saw it on vimeo.

I've posted several times on /r/tipofmytongue and nobody has really answered.
It's a website from about 2007 and I think it was called scary.com. There was a point and click sorta deal where you could explore a haunted house, creepy forest, zombie marsh, etc. There was a bedroom with a recording of an evil clown that used to scare the hell out of me. If you "walked" into the wood during the "day" there was a guy caught in a bear trap that asked you to free him. If you didn't, next time you came back, it would be night time, and he'd be a werewolf.
The website doesn't seem to exist anymore. It's not a dream because my cousin remembered it. I really want to find it again. It was so cool, and actually was the thing that got me into Web Development. I learned that there was more to websites than text boxes and simple flash games.

A book.
It's a tale of high fantasy, with a prince sent on a quest to find a dragon because something is wrong with magic, and then a big war happening.
It's not 'Eyes of the dragon' by King.
I remember a passage where the prince is ambushed by goblins while relieving himself. Later on those same goblins join the princes army and cover their weapons with dung so they cause infected wounds.
I remember a group of Dwarves that are lost because they can't agree on what way west is.
I remember the dragon being in a magical slumber, and something going horribly wrong when he teleports everyone back to the princes castle, with them arriving months later.
I remember the prince beating his older brother in a duel, which leads to him being brutally beaten by the swordmaster of the castle, because he should have let the future king win and look good.
At the end of the book, the prince has lost an eye and decides to fight with an axe instead of a sword from then on.
I really wanna know the title and author of the book, but any description I can come up with is so generic that I get tons and tons of search results.

The Girls. When I was 11 my alien sister and several young ladies came to live in my head and talk to me. We became friends. They were always with me - talking to me. When I was 14 my sister took all the other girls away. She put them somewhere I can't find. She has yet to bring them back. When she does speak to me, she refuses to speak of the Girls.

So about ten years ago i was in a math class at college with this really cute girl. she came in late the first day, and took the seat next to me (since it was the only one left). over the next ten weeks or so we talked casually, hung out after class, talked about this and that. turned out we were both dating people, so we just remained friends. near the end of the semester, this guy in our class comes up and whispers something in her ear. she explained (after he left) that he had hit her car in the parking lot on the way in that day. so we walked to the parking lot after class, said our goodbyes and that was that.
she didn't show up to the next class. or the next one. or the next one. i started fearing the worse. mind you, this was before facebook was popular, so nobody had an account. myspace was around, but i couldn't find her. i googled her name, asked around, everything i could think of. i even questioned the teacher who gave me this kind of strange, "i don't know who you're talking about" kinda thing. it was eerie.
anyway, every once in a while i'm reminded of her and i google her name to see if she's around. i saw this post and decided to try again. as luck would have it, something came up: an obituary for her boyfriend, from last year, stating they had a daughter together. ah, man. that made me feel bad. i did a little more digging and finally found her on facebook. i just sent her a message to see if she remembers me. let's see if she thinks i'm just a creep or not. wish me luck.

My 4th and 5th grade teacher.
I want to thank her for the effort she put in and helped get me on the right path in life. I've tried contacting the district, the school, but I never get a response back. I fear she may have passed away.

Idk if you can, have tried googling the years you were at that school plus the school name? The district might have it archived or another student has a yearbook, have you talked to any former classmates? I know it only elementry, but I still see former 6th grade classmates on Facebook.

I moved a lot growing up so I don't remember many of my classmates full names.
I tried looking up the school year but this was in the 90's, can't seem to find digital records online anywhere for the school.

Try the states dept of education website, usually they have a license lookup and you can see what district they are teaching in, and when they last renewed.

Even if you can't find her, she found you when you needed it. Consider paying it forward, and help someone else who reminds you of little you. If you can't thank her in person, thank her by helping someone else who is in 4th or 5th grade who is struggling with whatever you were.
On a related note, I heard a speaker one time talking about how people are only masters of something when they have "grandchildren" in it: if you've taught someone well enough that they teach someone else (a "grandchild"), that's when you can feel fulfilled as a mentor.

Ok, so I found mine by checking Whitepages, you can do a person lookup on it and it will give you their address along with their home phone, so long as you can assume they lived near where you went to school and you can assume their age.

I'm still missing one quarter from my fifty states collection.
EDIT: So I made a mistake. Thank you so much, especially u/frexels, for trying to track down a Nebraska quarter for me but I was mistaken about which quarter I needed. When I posted my first reply I was about 60% sure I needed Nebraska and the post didn't have many upvotes yet so I figured it wouldn't matter too much. Upon closer examination of my collection I actually need a Utah, Denver mint quarter. whoops.

I used to collect them with my grandparents by going through my grandpas large jars of coins. By large I mean a couple thousand dollars worth. It only took us a day to find all of them and put them in a little book which had each state and a hole for the quarter.
rhandyrhoads ยท 12 points ยท Posted at 04:21:19 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Are you sure it's that much worth of coins? Assuming it's all quarters and it's only 2000 dollars that's 181 kg worth of coins
GotHamm ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 04:30:24 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
When he passed away we got rid of all of the coins and it was around $950. He always had change from a hotdog place that he ate at everyday. He had a slight hoarding problem so he never went through it and he kept every coin in the house in a jar.

And that's most likely because you live on the east coast!
There are two major mints of coinage in the United States: the Philadelphia Mint and the Denver Mint, designated by the 'P' and 'D' marks you see on coins. On the east coast, you're see dramatically more 'P' coins, and the opposite on the west coast.
There's also the Sacramento Mint, designated with an 'S'. They mint proof coins: coins that are stamped twice to ensure fine detail and put in collector's sets.

About 8 months before my mother died she bought a book for collecting a bunch of different 50c pieces in Australia. She started it and I didn't really do anything with it until a couple of months after she died until I decided to finish it. It now sits in my top drawer of my desk at work. Hold onto that collection, it's always the little things that matter.

AriMaeda ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 05:32:14 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
The quarter is kind of nice. It's made of mostly silver, so it's worth about $3.50 right now in terms of its silver content.
Problem is that melting down currency is illegal, and it's a process that, even if you wanted to, would be very difficult to recoup that value. You'd need the tools to melt it, separate out the silver from the rest of the metals in there, then cast that silver into something salable. And after doing that, you've only got three and a half bucks worth of metal.

There was a Yellow Pages commercial from the mid-90's where an older chinese guy is describing, in great detail, to a sketch artist, the appearance of a guy that robbed him.
"He was 6'4", his nose... was definitely broken..."
The sketch artist, busily sketching away, finishes, and with a great dramatic flair, asks "Is THIS the man that robbed you?!"
He turns around his sketch book and it's a stickman with a crudely drawn gun, with a sun and clouds doodled in.
"YOU CAN'T DRAW!"

In summer camp my camp councilor used to tell us scary stories at night before lights out. One story in particular scared me to death and I have never been able to find it since.
It was the story of a boy who had headaches. He hated school, he hated his parents, the only things he loved was his hero, the President of the United States, and the nice nurse at school. At night the things in his room would move. The story was just details of things getting progressively worse. At some point he murders his parents off-page and he describes their bodies rotting (mom's lips were blue). The objects keep moving. He gets worse headaches. He can't be safe anywhere. The story ends with him losing his mind, he's trapped in his room, begging for "Mr. President". I remember it ending with the line: "Then everything moved."
It scares me to this day, this story.

Basically he is having blackouts and he's the one moving stuff and when he comes to it looks like everything moves suddenly. The story is of a person losing their mind and a glimpse into that horror.

It's a physiological response.
The child is actually shaking from excess caffeine consumption. If he presumes he is still, then the world around him is shaking and moving.
It all stems from his coffee addiction, where twice a day he goes to the barista down the road and orders a jumbo coco.

In the sixth gen games it becomes a 1/4096 chance. I got my first shiny while playing Black. It was a Woobat. It really sucked, but I kept it on my team because I'd always sworn to use the first shiny I ever caught. Keep up the search, friend! They are out there.

Yeah I know that's why I more or less put the old games as with horde battles a 1/4096 chance becomes 1/819.2, with the shiny charm that also becomes a 1/409.6 chance. Which while rare isn't that rare and doesn't hold the same meaning as the old 1/8192 chance.
The closest I've ever gotten to that was when I chained back in Gen 4 where I snagged a couple Ponyta and ome Pinsir.

My first ever was a Shiny Heracross in Pokemon Y, bright pink, and it was female.

"Chaining is the act of essentially encountering a certain Pokรฉmon many times in a row using an item called the Pokรฉ Radar. When the Pokรฉ Radar is activated, several patches of grass shake and/or flash, which means Pokรฉmon are hiding there that can be encountered by entering the patch. Chaining can be done in any field of grass in Sinnoh large enough to sustain a successful chain, which turns out to be about a 9 by 9 square of patches. Conveniently, there is a chaining-ready field of grass on nearly every route in the region, allowing for a great variety of Pokรฉmon to encounter, allowing you to chain a great variety of Pokรฉmon."

Why do you consider it illegitimate?

Because you can get the numbers down to 1/409.2 with Horde battles and the shiny charm compared to the orignal 1/8192

I lose interest in things and reset pokemon or make new characters in Skyrim all the time. By biggest regret is resetting my fire red with my first and only shiny pokemon. It was a shiny mankey and was one of my most treasured pokemon.

To my memory I've only ever gotten 2 or 3. I only distinctly remember 2 though: my first ever was a shinx (now Luxray) that I got shiny hunting with the pokeradar in gen 4. Second was a random makuhita in emerald that I just bumped into at the beginning of the game

I've only captured 2 in the wild: The first was a Numel in Ruby, and the second was a Woobat in Black. However like a fucking idiot I deleted that save on Ruby and forgot that I had the shiny Camerupt (it had evolved). Never seen another since :(
I am not counting the Red Gyarados because that's cheating.

Please explain what a shiny pokemon is. Are these in yellow version or pokemon snap?
AriMaeda ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 05:15:32 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
No, they're not in Yellow or Snap.
I think they were rolled out in the second generation (Gold/Silver), and each encounter has a ludicrously low chance of seeing an alternately-colored Pokemonโa shiny Pokemon. The odds are 1 in 9000-ish, and I think those odds also apply to your starters and legendaries.

Not sure about previous generations but in the latest (ORAS) if you complete the national pokรฉdex the professor gives you a "shiny charm" with increases your chances of encountering wild shiny Pokรฉmon by 300%. Of course that still only gives you a 1 in 2,730.6 chance, but better than nothing.
It's also reported that if you chain find specific Pokรฉmon using the DexNav then the chances increase even more, but I haven't seen any concrete evidence of this.

In my own games I've come across one shiny - a Druddigon. I freaked out, since I've been playing the games since I was like 10 (24 now). The freaking thing used Dragon Tail first move. I nearly cried.
My fiance is a poke-streamer and has the shiny charm. Twice I've been shiny hunting on his stream and I found a shiny - first was a Zigzagoon (we were hunting for Poochyena) and second was a Tauros.
But I still feel the loss of that Druddigon so hard.

The first time I ever played Pokemon it was on my friends DS. It was sapphire I think. 10 minutes into the game and I came across a shiny sableye. I asked my friend why he was different colored, and she yelled "holy shit!" And got it with a master ball.
I played that game on and off for so many years after that and I have yet to come across my own shiny Pokemon.

one in 1/4096
double that one with a masuda method (breeding with a pokemon of another state) to 4/4096 this translate again into 1/1024.
my first shiny was a golden geodude in the original silver
later a mesprit with shitty IV
now i have a lot of them.
double again if you have a shiny bell (pokedex complete)
this raise up the chance

How about citations that are not from social media. Drives me batshit when my local news bitch reads a tweet out load on the air. If social media is intrinsically involved in the story, OK then.
If I am reading a newspaper article on the city budget process, I don't want to read about what people are posting on social media - I will go to social media myself if that's what I want to read.

If I see a website that has the blue product links in the middle of the writing, I don't use that as a credible source for information because their motivation is to make money, not to spread useful information to the populace.

My local news station reports tweets about the fucking weather. There are precise instruments used to report the measure in various places. It's clear that they are just using their phone's weather app thing, which is stupid because the weatherman/news station has the exact same information and potentially more.

I think it was an interactive flash game/video on ebaums way back in the early 2000's. It played music and would make different sounds and animations when you clicked on certain things. I think it was all black and white and followed a little man as he floated through some really bizarre stuff. Pretty sure it was a drum heavy beat.

You could pick them and leave them around for people. A four- leaf clover someone had laminated into a wallet-sized card fell out of a box at the video rental store once when I was small, and that was pretty awesome.
You could do that and leave them in library books and restaurant benches and make a lot of people smile.

A fan vaporizes it, the cycle goes round and round. There is a pan at the bottom that collects it, but the level doesn't rise more than a few millimeters. ACs don't add cold, they just subtract heat.

Ahh, people not understanding how Air Conditioning actually works, right? For the rest of you, they're basically just de-humidifiers with a big fan, and hooked up to your wall. The moisture in the air holds most of the heat, since air is a better thermal insulator than water. The higher the humidity, the higher the potential thermal energy the air can hold onto. AC units extract the moisture from the air and it condenses on the outside parts of the unit. They're supposed to do that. If you've ever seen a de-humidifier, you'd know that they either have a huge bucket-like water tank that you have to empty every so often, or there would be a hose system leading to a drain pipe. This is a pretty basic explanation, so I'm sure there's some finer details glossed over here.

My friend and I in kindergarten found this little patch of what we believed to be, and could've been a different breed of clovers, but there were dozens of clovers with fairly tall stalks (maybe 5"), and upwards to 18 leaves! They looked like you stacked a bunch of 4-7 leaf clovers on top of one another.
All the leaves were in a ring, just like a regular one, but seperated into groups of 4-7 leaves, about 1/2" to 1" apart. It was neat

I found my first four leaf clover the hard way.
When I was about 6, I was riding my bike on a hill with a narrow path. The front wheel slipped and I wiped out face first and hit hard on my chin. Right directly in front of my eyes 3 inches away was a four leaf clover.
If you try my technique, I'd recommend a helmet and a mouth guard.

Sure, four leaf clovers are real! When I was around 12, I began to find them all the time, for some reason. Usually if you sit down in a clover patch and look for a few minutes you can find one. I had a collection for a while...at least 15 four-leafers, a few five-leafers, and one six-leafer! I don't know what happened to that collection. Maybe I'll begin looking again.

I have a friend who legitimately is really good at finding these consistently. during the sprint/summer she sells them on etsy. I've tried finding them and I couldn't find a single one, but she churns 'em out like nobody's business. she's actually got a 5-leaf clover for sale right now.

I don't know if it has something to do with the specie.....but almost all clovers I've found had four leaves. I live in Costa Rica and maybe we got a different type of clover here.

My mom's ex boyfriend's house had a bunch of clovers in the front yard and we found about 7-10 four leaf clovers. I wish I knew to dry them out before trying to seal them, but I was too young to know better and they rotted in the plastic. I sometimes try to remember where that house is so I might find some more.....

I've found a few. Found one at our regular campsite one time, then next time we were there I was telling someone about it, "It was a fluke, I just looked down at the ground like this, and I spotted it. Haha holy shit, there's one right now! ".

They are very real, I found a small patch of them once when I was little and pressed them in a book I always had with me.
Once I got older and learned they were kind of common mutations it lost the charm a little until I realised that they were mutant plants. Which was cool.

Are there seriously people that think they aren't real....? It's just a genetic mutation in a very simple plant. I've got one in my wallet right now, and I've had it for over 15 years. It's laminated. It's not a unicorn.

It was always the joke porno from back in the day that my friends would make fun of me for having. It was one of those mislabeled videos I had downloaded from Kazaa or something. They were tan women. Somewhat potato quality. It was hilarious so I kept it for a while.
I'll never forget the champagne shooting out all over the place.

You ever see the one with the blonde chick and it's made to look amateur though I remain skeptical, but she rides the dude and gets off pretty hard (and says so) and they switch positions a couple times and she keeps getting off (and saying so). At one point she sort of laughs and says "give me a second" and the dude pauses for like 1 nanosecond before putting it to her again?

A canvas print of "A Portrait of Things to Come" by Marc Davis. It's famously the painting hanging over the bar in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.
The highest resolution image of it I've been able to find online is this one, and I am on the verge of having it printed onto canvas (anyone have any idea how large I could make it before it starts to look low-res?) but would much rather have an officially licensed print.
And it doesn't look like Disney has ever made any available.

LordPizzaParty ยท 42 points ยท Posted at 21:30:20 on November 17, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
The image is 109 dpi and 7200 pixels wide. I converted it to 300 dpi (the bare minimum for printing) and kept the width at 7200. I show an image that you could print at 24 x 14 inches without losing too much quality.
That said, I'm not entirely sure how accurate that is because I think the image might have been "blown up." When I zoom in on it it gets a little blurry, so I think at some point down the line someone took the image and made it bigger, which is causing a drop in quality.
space_gator ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 04:08:47 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
If the long edge is 7200 pixels wide you can print safely at at least 36"x21" really.
It mostly depends on how far away you're going to be looking at it but at that scale you'll really only notice the pixels if you're standing super close to it. If you want to hang it above a bar you have even more freedom. If you're going to hang it in a hall way or something you probably won't be able to get away with blowing it up that much.

Tried it, no luck. OS/device picker does not work on archive.org.
edit: also, I looked at the files section, they simply do not have the driver package saved.

Shot in the dark before I go to bed here; I did find one particular x64 driver in the archives. I have no idea what device that is, but it's probably worth giving the download archived from August a try.
alienpirate5 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 08:55:10 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
That is the DuoSense 2 driver, for the Surface 3 digitizer.

Damn. I'm doubting it's even in their archives.

Hey man, just wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten, but I'm really not having any luck.
I hate calling it quits on shit like this, but I'm honestly beginning to question if there are any mirrors left. This is just a really unfortunate situation with the company.
alienpirate5 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 00:15:00 on November 19, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, I stopped looking about a week ago. Everything I find is either about WinTab or they say "Got the drivers from the company website, thanks for the help." This is really horrible. Also I had Ubuntu on my XT in a second partition until about a week ago, then I went "Fuck it, it doesn't work anyways" and deleted the downloads folder on that partition. That folder had the W8 x64 drivers in it. I'm still mad about that.

Later, the apprentice finds a town ruled by an evil glass blower who has made slaves out of everyone. I don't really remember more than that, sadly.

If it's Shazam you're talking about, it doesn't work for humming. It recognizes specific digital patterns in the music that are unique. It's signal processing and more of a feat of mathematical approximation, even though it seems like magic. Human speech and humming are so varied that it would be entirely different to be able to do that.

There used to be a website where you could enter the up/down pattern (not the actual notes, just whether the next note was higher or lower) of the notes and it would give a list of songs with similar patterns. IIRC, it wasn't very good with modern songs though.

Yea, I have a song stuck in my head with very iconic saxophone riffs. I cannot remember any of the words to save my life. I've heard it on soft rock stations every so often, but that was before I had Shazam and the radio station has doing a back-to-back, so they didn't stop to announce it. I may have to try /r/tipofmytongue to figure it out sometime.
EDIT: Figured it out, it's Baker Street by Gerry Raferty. Don't know why I couldn't remember the lyrics, but for me the Saxophone stands out so much that it's all I could remember, but I love this song. Makes me wish I had joined band in school so I could have played the Sax.

Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve. My mom used to play it when I was little, but I hadn't heard it in years. Finally, when I was around 15, I heard it in a Krogers. I freaked out and repeated the few lyrics I could remember incessantly until I could get home and google them. What a serendipitous success.

I also had an anime that I always saw on this one single AMV ages ago and it turned out to be Shamanic Princess
Finding both was so satisfying; never give up taylortob it's worth it if you find it.

I've posted this before to /r/tipofmytongue with no luck. It's basically a creepy Music Video from the mid-00s.
I saw the music video only once around October 2008, possibly on Bravo Canada. If I remember correctly the music was set to an image of an old fashioned sepia photo. Everything at first appeared normal then the camera would suddenly zoomed to reveal an unsettling detail, such as a monster lurking behind a terrified family. I think it was set near the beginning of the 20th century.

I don't know if this helps, but as a girl I have never once thought badly of someone who has asked me out. I usually feel genuinely bad when I turn someone down and respect them for having the courage to ask. So if you were embarrassed, she probably wasn't. Unless she sucks as a human. If so, who cares.

What do you think is the best thing for a guy to say?
penelope-taynt ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 06:24:11 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
I don't think there's really a winning formula, and I think it depends on the girl. But for me I think I prefer if someone just talks to me as a human being and is genuinely interested in me as a person and not just as a girl. Girls are just people who feel awkward and insecure sometimes, too. But 1) don't be overtly sexual, 2) try not to make a huge deal out of it. Some guy said something on here once that stuck with me -- confidence isn't knowing that they'll like me, it's knowing that I'll be okay whether they like me or not. The second type of confidence is super attractive. Not being arrogant or assuming the girl is going to be totally into you, but being confident enough that she doesn't feel like your emotional stability is resting on her answer.
[deleted] ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 06:35:03 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Way to put it into words. I agree. I have been successful on molly because I approach a girl with genuine curiosity and interest in their lives and I could care less if they walk away or say no. When I'm sober I am so damn nervous because I know I will be so embarrassed if they say no.
penelope-taynt ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 06:39:43 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Yeah, I get nervous too but I guess I feel like I've come to the point where I'm trying not to care. So what if someone says no? There could be a whole host of reasons that she said no that have absolutely nothing to do with you-- in a relationship, not looking for anything, she feels insecure, etc etc. And even if it does have to do with you, then so what? So one person in the whole world doesn't want to date/hook up with you. All of the positive qualities that you possess still exist. Your life is still going to be fine. And if you're not embarrassed or phased by it, then it won't be weird for anyone and she won't think badly of you at all.

Nah, that is really out of the blue. An easier, much more successful way would be to invite her to a party you would be going to sometime. You can get a vibe for her there, try to hang around her and see if she is in to you. If you can't really tell you can just pop the question and worst case scenario she says no. You wont really care if she says no either because you can just party the bad feelings away after.

Then at the party she starts talking to some really buff guy who seems super chill and you realise that you will never have the guts to ask her an she seems really into this new guy who talks to her so you feel worthless and leave the party alone and goes home to eat icecream and cry while watching porn.
DONT FUCKING MAKE EXCUSES JUST ASK NOW. RIGHT NOW, NOT LATER, NOT TOMORROW. JUST.DO.IT.
ASK HER OUT.
Then do it with ur next girl.
And the girl after that.
And the next one aswell.

So I went to this school get away with food, airsoft, and wrestling. It was great. Well, we talked about being men and becoming good leaders. One of my friends made the good point that "Hopefully you wouldn't judge a guy by how he looks right?" They also talked about other stuff in the same category.
Ok, she is a human being just like you. Possibly prettier but just think about that. Why would you be scared to talk to a guy? Plus chicks dig confidence.

Even if you think she'll say no, at least know that you don't have a shot. Then you'll stop thinking about her so often. It sucked, but it was a huge relief when I finally asked out this girl I'd had a crush on for the longest time, only to find out that she just wasn't ready for a relationship at the time. I asked her out again, but from what she and what some of our (trustworthy) mutual friends have told me, she felt like I was family based on our experience. It fucking hurt, but at least I can move on knowing that it wasn't just a missed opportunity.

Similarly, my old GBA, my old GameCube, and my old crappy CRTV, along with my copy of Pokรฉmon Emerald and an old copy of SSBM. I just want to play Melee without HD lag, goddamnit. Luckily I found a crappy CRTV for $5 at a garage sale, so I didn't have to spend ridiculous amount of money on a decent one. It gets the job done, and it feels so much better to play Sega Genesis, NES, and sometimes GC games on it than on an HDTV.

Finding, more specifically. My buddy lost his parents last year both to cancer within a couple months of each other. We took some time off from work together and recreated the trip he took through Europe with his family 15 years prior. It's been pretty difficult finding some of the small B&B'S and boutique hotels that they stayed at during that time, some of which no longer exist. The past 2 months have been some of the most profound, painful months for both of us, but I'm glad we're doing it. He really needed this

Only happened to me once, when I was on vacation in Prague. Middle of the day, in the same square as the astronomical clock. Literally came up to me and asked if I wanted some marijuana. I was so suprised that I instinctly answered "no".
Probably good though. My friend bought Ecstacsy down there, and it was the weakest shit she ever did. Damn Czech quality drugs.

Do you live in a city? It should be easy enough to find weed at least if you do. Try hanging out at some bars and chatting up some folks who look like they might get high. Wait til somebody mentions pot, or casually bring it up yourself, and make an offhand comment about how it's been a while for you and you don't even know where to get it these days. Someone will eventually hook you up, especially if they've seen you around before.

No problem dude. Good luck in your quest!! I have been there myself, and it sucks. I spent some time traveling across the US years ago, and I got really good at finding weed in strange towns. I find that most stoners are friendly people and they want to help out as long as they feel they can trust you.

I've been searching for a semi-motivational comic I read somewhere, possibly reddit, a few years ago. If I remember right, it is about a wolf, who comes upon some lambs and is planning to kill them (I think) until he discovers their mother has been killed by some hunters. After speaking with the lambs he leaves and then he has a change of heart and the last panel is the wolf deciding to protect the lambs against a hunter with a gun. I only read an English version, but the language made me think it had been originally written in Japanese and translated.
Don't know why I care so much but I found it kind of moving and would like to find it again, if it rings a bell for anyone. Might have messed up some of the details since it's been awhile.

Love this. It's actually a Chinese comic though - or so I assume from the Chinese characters in the illustration.
The Japanese character for sheep, ็พ - ('hitsuji'), is the same as the Chinese word for sheep, ็พ - 'yรกng'. However, here you see a little square next to it - ๅฃ - which gives it away as Chinese (it means 'mouth').
Japanese would be ใกใผใกใผ ('mฤ mฤ') for sheep sounds. Chinese is ๅฉๅฉ ('miฤ miฤ'). In the comic all of the Chinese characters are backwards - I reckon it's probably scanned from a kid's textbook and the English superimposed on the top.
Also, the Chinese character in the 19th panel(่บ - 'dรก') is a traditional character rather than simplified, meaning it's most likely from a textbook in Hong Kong rather than mainland China.
(BTW the character in the first panel means 'knock', and the one in panel 5 means 'cough/cry out'.)

Try to envision this scene:
There's an enormous pile of human skulls, set against a dark background. Ominous music is playing, and as you watch, still more skulls tumble into view, each of them falling in slow motion.
I witnessed that when I was about five years old, and to this day, I have absolutely no idea what I was watching. (It was a scene from a television show, I know that much.) Based on the things I was allowed to view at that age, it had to have been from one of the following programs:
"Sesame Street"
"Mister Rogers' Neighborhood"
"Reading Rainbow"
"Superman"
"F Troop"
"Today's Special"
Most of those don't seem like they'd include images of disembodied brain-cases tumbling through the air, but I can't rule anything out at this point. Unfortunately, nobody yet has been able to find the clip in question, and I'm beginning to wonder if I hallucinated it. The thing is, I can remember going to find my mother immediately after watching the scene, and asking her what the hell it had been. (She, of course, had absolutely no idea.) That seems like it would have been an odd course of action if I'd simply imagined everything, and for that reason - as well as how vivid it was - I remain convinced that somewhere out in the ether, there's some familiar footage of falling skulls waiting to be found.
TL;DR: I've never been able to find a specific scene of slowly falling skulls.

Instead of focusing on how you can't get a girlfriend, just focus on being the best single guy you can be, just for the point of having a great single life.
After a couple months, you'll probably meet a cool girl and hit it off- if you spend time trying to make yourself better instead of putting the burden on other people, you will suddenly find yourself much more wanted.

Hopefully someone can help me, as this is kinda serious.
When I was younger, around 10-11? We went camping at a place called Barkcamp, it's in OH. My little sister & I found these two girls to hang out with, they called themselves "Hollywood" and "Ashtray". I figured it was some sort of sister thing for "Holly" and "Ashley", we never got their real names. We played with them for two days, swimming in the lake, sitting by the fire at night while their parents and mine smoked weed and drank and my annoying uncle played guitar really loud until park rangers told him to cut it out. They slept in our tent one night and we decided to have some girl talk. This is where it gets serious.
My sister asked their real names, and was told they weren't allowed to give them out. We thought this was weird, and answered accordingly with "You know ours!", and gave our full birth names. The little one of the two girls says "he might be listening, don't do that", so we turn to the bigger sister hoping to find it was all a scary campfire thing. Nope! Turns out some guy has been trying to kidnap them for years, he always finds them, they have to change their names frequently. The oldest one says they live near this camp, which so do we, and this guy won't leave them alone.
Enter us completely freaking the fuck out, asking how he would know we gave our names, and deciding on nicknames. The littlest says he could hear us somehow, at this point it becomes a fun game, "MY spy name is Rosebud, what's yours?" All night we talk about this guy, he's younger maybe a few years older than us, I'm thinking 16 at this time since he drives, so 5 years older than I am. What kind of car does he drive? A black blazer. That kind of thing. We get desensitized. Eventually, we all say goodnight via our new nicknames and pass out. Morning comes, I'm awoken to someone screaming bloody murder. I leave the dewey tent and see Hollywood and Ashtray's mom pointing and screaming at the girls that it's time to go, now. A black blazer is creeping towards our little cul-de-sac, and immediately I realize these girls weren't fucking around. They run away, them, their mom & dad, leave their dog behind with us, and we never see them again. We kept the dog, he was mean as shit and hated people, eventually had to put him down for attacking my sister's friend and giving her 32 stitches. I wish it ended there.
I'm 24 now, was at work when I get a message on Facebook, some guy asking if I wanted to make money. I don't know him, I don't answer. He asks me to send him nudes and he'll give me $5K. I ignore him. He sends me 25 messages, I start to get curious.
HE STARTED CALLING ME FUCKING ROSEBUD. I NEED TO FIND THESE GIRLS.
ETA: He also says he's going to meet me in a black blazer to give me the money if I would send him pics. He's been making new accounts to get in touch with me. The cops think it's a made-up story, but it's not. The reason I think they still live near me is my cousin had a un-in with some girls near me, that called themselves Holland and Aspen. They fought my cousin, and filed a police report saying one sister saved the other from kidnappings when she was younger, and that she was protecting her sister. I have screenshots of this. Not making this shit up. I cant find the girls on Facebook, my cousin doesn't know them, this guy IS STILL CONTACTING ME.

No power won't help if you can't look for the girls to find out more info about the guy that's stalking me. And now he's somehow accessed private pics too, which is a huge issue. But the cops keep blowing it off even though this dude has pics of me that were only on my phone and my husband's. Couldn't make the shit up if I tried.

I know a way he might possibly be able to get the pics off your phone, but I'm not completely sure if it's possible because I don't know what's required to set it up. If you have an iPhone, it's possible to hook that phone up with an iMac so that all texts received and sent on the phone go to the computer as well, it can be done with iPads too. But they would need your apple email and log in info I think. Idk that's the first thing that came into my head when I read this. If you texted those photos that might be home he got them
EDIT: this is like some r/nosleep shit hahaha

I would imagine if he had that information he could access it, so I've stopped using the cloud and now I dont have room on my phone for anything because I don't have an SD card. I really need to get more info about this guy and those girls can provide it. That's why I want to find them.

I don't have schizophrenia.. Promise lol. I took the proof to them, and they agree that someone is harassing me online, but they don't think it's the guy from before. If someone sends me an SD card I can take the screenshots, but right now I dont have room to save anything on my phone. I only have what's already on here, which is the girl saying she saved her sister from kidnapping when they were younger. I can PM you that and another account the guy has messaged me from, that's all I have on here.

It really sounds like you're experiencing some sort of schizophrenic episode; I'm not trying to be an alarmist or patronizing, or anything of that sort, but the story you've written here really doesn't make much sense, and not in a "It's too much of a longshot to be true" kind of not-making-sense, but more of a "This is a stream of barely related and nonsensical events being presented as a story" kind of not-making-sense.
Who knows, you could just have a quirky writing style and that's fine, but I would think about maybe talking to someone that you deeply trust and honestly ask them what they think about how you're doing. It doesn't hurt just to be sure, you can laugh it off afterwards :)

I didn't go into full detail because it was a comment on a story, not my own story being presented. I need to find these girls to see if they learned anything more about this guy, that's all it is. Because I know this is true, and I know that my sister is freaked out by it too, so much so that she asked me not to have her listed as my sister on FB so the guy wouldn't realize it was her.. I doubt we're both schizo

It's the nature of schizophrenia to not feel anything out of the ordinary, and when you're trying to be sure, you can't rely upon your past memories. I really mean it, it wouldn't hurt to share this story with someone you trust and ask them what they think. Maybe I'm just being overly worried for you, but it really wouldn't hurt to be sure, wouldn't it?

I trust my sister, I trust my parents. They were present for the camping trip. They knew about what happened with those girls. I let my mom log into my Facebook to read the messages, and she called the police station I've been working with to tell them this is a real situation, not something to play around about. My sister called crying asking me to please be careful after she read them.

Do you mind posting the conversations of the guy calling you Rosebud? You don't need an SD card, your phone has internal memory.
We aren't trying to attack you, it just sounds a little off, that's all.
People are mentioning Schizophrenia because it seems like you are creating a story line for two people you may or may not have ever met, and you also mention that someone is following you, which is very common with schizophrenia.

I met them, as I commented below, I let my mom log into my Facebook and read the messages from this guy. She was there for that trip and contacted local police after she read that conversation, telling them that this isn't something im fucking around about. My sister called me crying begging me to be careful. My internal memory is full I would show you that if I could save anything to my phone.. But I can't. So believe me, im not some delusional person my mom was there, my sister was there, they both know what's going on and we all can't be delusional right? Maybe the guy wants to get to the girls, I don't know. All I know is im being harassed and wondering if he knows where I live. I never said anyone was following me, I think the guy remembered my name and saw it on Facebook.

I actually finally got this a few weeks ago. I've attended national FFA (Future Farmer's of America) convention every year, since Freshman year. In the back of the book, there's a spot to collect signatures, one from every state, and also spaces for Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and occasionally Guam. I've managed to almost completely fill my book out every year. Sometimes I'm missing a few, but usually, i'm just missing one. I was never able to get a signature from Maine. It was killing me. I set up stake-outs, searched constantly, all to no avail.
This year was my senior year, it was my last chance. I walked in, determined to not rest until I had a signature from Maine.... and off I went. I was wandering the halls of the sales booths, when I saw it. It was the equivalent of looking for a rainbow, and finding a rainbow with a unicorn covered in gold at the bottom. Alaska AND Maine walked side-by-side, right in front of me.
I SHOVED people out of the way, sprinting with the speed of a thousand determined hippos, and desperately, with tears in my eyes, begged them for their signatures. I walked away victorious.
And STILL didn't get a signature from Vermont.....

I'm from Idaho, but instead of flying, we load a bus full of students from our chapter and other local chapters, and drive. The. Whole. Way. To. Louisville. It takes us 11 days total, and we stop at all sorts of cool places. This year, I won a scholarship from Culver's that got us $10,000 to go, and it only cost everyone $100 to take the trip. We also got to go to the concert that opened with Maddie and Tae. Did anyone else go to that? I have a whole separate story if there's anyone here who did. :)

I was always in search of Extra Innings on the Super NES system. Could never find it locally and eBay people wanted more than I wanted to spend (last time I looked). I just got a PS4 and was in the demo area of the store and saw Super Mega Baseball. I thought to myself let's give it a try. Started playing it and it is very close to Extra Innings. Went ahead and bought the game because I was like, "Yea I can get down with this!" After purchasing there was a button for DLC, clicked on that and it turns out you can download the stadium(s) from the old Extra Innings game. This leads me to believe maybe same developer possibly! Thought it was awesome though!!!

You should visit a doctor friend. I had the same kind of feeling for the longest time, and I just decided it was part of my life. I could never understand because I love my life, I have an awesome job, girlfriend, and everything is going well. But I've always had a really empty feeling. I went to a doctor, and while I'm not saying anti-depressants would help everyone, or even if that's what you should expect if you go to a doctor. But that's what happened with me, and while I've always been cynical when it comes to prescription medication, I have been feeling so so much better recently. I know it's not something that helps with everyone. But if you haven't already, go to a doctor. I've felt that way before, and probably will again, and it's the absolute fucking worst.

Happiness
chickendinosaur ยท 43 points ยท Posted at 21:21:03 on November 17, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Hey, I was just reading SuperBetter by Jan McGonigal and she mentions the idea that if your goal is to achieve happiness, you usually end up sort of off track and unhappy. However, if you try to 'sneak up on happiness' or try to achieve happiness adjacently, your success rates will be much higher. Instead of making the goal happiness, you make the goal(s) things that can contribute to happiness. These things usually include socializing with friends and family, interacting with animals or children, helping others, learning new things, trying new skills, etc. Helping other people tends to be a huge contributing factor in happiness.
So, instead of thinking to yourself 'I wish I was happy' or 'things would be better if I was happy' try and focus instead on a specific action you can take sneakily towards happiness.
Some things that I try include: trying out a new baking recipe and giving the treats to a friend or neighbor, texting someone I haven't talked to in a while and asking how they are doing on a scale of 1-10 (instead of just 'how ya doin') which I then follow up with how can I help make your [whatever number they say] turn into a [their number plus 1], volunteering at animal shelters or picking up trash in state parks, taking a walk downtown and trying to genuinely compliment at least one person per block.
I hope you sneak up on happiness :)

That is a great recommendation. For those times when depression sneaks up on me, I use the SuperBetter app on my phone. Small things, but it actually works if you slow down and do them correctly.

A better way of putting that would be more like "happiness isn't the goal, you derive happiness from doing things."

why this year? Is this when Leo Fender seceded and started G&L? Btw, sc-2 is my favorite model of G&L. I used to have an ASAT tribute model and it was on par with fenders american models (the build, not the electronics).

First year of the series. They were using solid slab alder bodies during the original run. They feel more substantial than the reissues, and still have the old headstock shape.
I have three SB-1 basses, all pre-lawsuit. It'd be nice to have a matching SC-2. Plus I'm a sucker for that Tele Deluxe sound, but I never liked the look of a Tele.

It's a longshot, but try the G&L Discussion Page. Forum activity is virtually non-existent.
Their guitar registry has a handful of 1983 entries for the SC-2.

A good friend/boyfriend that I had for a few months while I lived out of state.
My mom told my sister, step sister, and I that we were moving states..the day before we moved. I was not allowed to tell my dad, my grandmother (both of who I was very close to) or anyone else for that matter. They had no plan. We went to this particular town because his sister lived there. The five of us lived in a tent for two weeks until they found a house.
I became friends with my next door neighbor. There were 3 girls, fairly close to us in ages. Their cousin became my "boyfriend" for those few months.
We moved at the end of the school season so we spent all day outside hanging out/playing/walking around town (very small town). His mom was very kind to me and let me come over to their house. He had family come in to visit from up north for a short time. I had no idea he was gonna go back with them for a few weeks.
I woke up to knocking on my door one morning about 6am. When I finally got to it (everyone else was asleep), I saw him getting into a car. I thought no big deal, they're going to breakfast. Nope.. he was going to visit his family.
This would not have been an issue except.. during the time that he was gone (about a week later), my grandmother found us. She had legal rights to us for the summer, so we went back to our home state with her (I cannot explain how happy this made me).
While we were gone, my mother missed us/home and convinced her husband to move back.. so they did.
I never got to say goodbye to him. He was just really kind to me and that was a really difficult time in my life.
I just wonder how he's doing, where he ended up, how his family is.
I know his first and last name (quite common), his brother's name, and his mother's first name. I know how old he was at the time but not his birth date. When I first got mIRC/ICQ/Myspace/Facebook, I did some general searches but didn't have any luck so I don't bother anymore.
If you're somehow reading this, I hope everything turned out the way you wanted it to and I hope you are all well.

A lot of 'people search' sites are pretty ratty and want you to pay for info, but the last time a thread like this came up I had some luck finding people through Spokeo, PeopleLookup and Intelius. They list known relatives, but I don't know how reliable the info is.
Edit: some more sites to try

If you're really wanting to find him you could potentially get access to the birth/family records from the library/town hall of the place you two were staying. Hell, since it's a really small town people probably knew each other you could probably just look up some older residents in the Yellow Pages/Internet and ask them.

I think that view is oversimplified. Plenty of people try to follow that path. You can get better at all kinds of things if you can sustain interest for a little while, but even without frustration, at some point putting in lots of effort on something just feels pointless. Why am I doing this? I've already proven this is something I can be pretty great at if I keep trying. But why bother? The novelty has worn off and it's boring now. Besides, nobody cares. What am I gonna do with it, just show off how great I am and try to make people jealous or something? Ick.

A little late to the party, but my half sister. She's about 16 or 17 years older than I am. My dad and his girlfriend at the time had her when they were teenagers and put her up for adoption and never spoke of it again. I would love to meet her and tell her that she has five younger siblings that have been looking for her for years now and that she's very much loved by all of us.

chickendinosaur ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 18:13:31 on November 19, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Yes, sort of. How your brain works is that things and thoughts and feelings you experience regularly have stronger neural connections - whatever you practice regularly your brain gets better at doing. Things like feeling confidence or anxiety can both become basically habits for your brain. So in the case of empathy, practicing going out of your way to understand why and how people do/say/feel the things they do will increase the speed and skill at which your brain will do those empathetic things in the future.

Oh my god, if someone could help me, that would be awesome. It's music. A long time ago I downloaded Black & White, but not from any reputable source, so it came with an interesting install program. But the game isn't the important part, it's the install screen. I remember it had a spinning, flipping 3 1/2 Floppy disk and there was some techno music playing. There were about 5 songs and you could skip through them. I'd love to hear those songs again, but I doubt I ever will.
Has anyone run into this?
EDIT: It seemed to be music of choice by the person who ripped the game and made the game downloadable. It's not game music.

Probably won't be able to find it unless you can somehow track down the specific cracked version you had. It's called a crack intro and the music would usually be made by the group who cracked the software. You can still hear examples of this in modern keygen software.

The fact that single is a category points to the fact that SOMEBODY somewhere has a girlfriend that is HOT and SANE, therefore, she is not single. It's possible, just more likely that someone is holding onto her, so she'll probably never be single again.

The motivation to get a model's body. Every time I attempt to diet and exercise I stop just short of this goal and get stuck at a mediocre, healthy weight for my height, when my dream is to be skinny. I am a male, BTW.

I'll be honest. Been there, done that. It's kind of a let down. "Oh, I have a sexy six pack, single digit bodyfat, and my back looks like a topographical map of Colorado. Now what?"
It really doesn't get you that much more attention, and you start to get anxiety about being able to maintain it. The worst part of the deal is, if you happen to get injured, and start to deteriorate, holy fucking depression Batman, what a terrible feeling.

Look, I went out looking for motivation to work out and lose some weight. I tried everything. Motivational songs, movies, texts, pics, everything.
Then it dawned on me. You don't FIND motivation at the click of a button. You get up, and you make working out a part of your everyday routine. You're not gonna wake up every day and go "Yeah! I'm so motivated!" You need to trick your mind and your body into assimilating it to your daily schedule. So get up, and go work out. I lost 17 kilos over the last 6 months this way. You can do it. Just get up and do it, don't look for reasons or motivation as to "why?"
Pagan-za ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 12:00:52 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
I also struggle with motivation in the beginning, but sticking with it makes it easier and easier.
Honestly, I'd recommend just starting a supplement course to go along with it. Something simple like a pre-workout load or fat burners or whatever. If you've spent money on the supplements and are taking them, then it really motivates you to put it to good use and not waste it. And you get better results.

If you have a picture of it, you might be able to have someone recreate it. I found this company from a quick Google search that makes stuffed animals based on drawings and pictures. It's not cheap (starts at $89), but it could be worth it if it's that sentimental to you.

When I was a kid I saw a cartoon that had a bunch of dragons in it and some dude took over one of the dragons, beat the bad guy and saved the say. That's all I remembered from it and only ever saw it ones and never again until last weekend after spending close to two decades trying to figure out what movie it was.
I was describing it to my coworker one morning, he had the brilliant idea to try and look it up on IMDB. within minutes he found it. It's called "Flight of the Dragons" and it's still a good movie in my 30's as it was when I was 9.

My dad was getting his first tattoo at age 50 just before he died. A full back piece of 13 samurai. He had 7 finished when he died. I've always wanted to share the last 6 with my brother as tattoos. I've never been able to find the art work he used for it. He died 11 years ago. I remember him saying it was called 13 ghosts of samurai or something like that.

Sorry, I'm very much female, so I doubt they could help me there, but thanks anyways. And my jeans are essentially never high enough in the waist that my butt doesn't show, and high-waisted jeans (like mom jeans) fit around my legs and butt, but are always wayyyy too loose around the waist area. It's basically because nobody on the planet has ever thought that girls could have thick thighs and a big ass and also have a small, thin waist. Like wtf

I feel your pain but in a different way...I'm male and I have wide hips for god knows what reason, so pants always fit me weirdly.
But keep the search up for that perfect fit, it's out there :)

This shitty, MS - Pinball tier game. It was on the old laptop of a friend of my fathers, probably about 2002 ish, so most likely running on XP or Windows 2000. The game was very simple. You chose either a male or female character, and have to get as drunk as possible before time runs out. You have an ugly date and the drunker you get, the hotter your date becomes. The mechanics were very basic, your hand moves back and forth along the bar, automatically, and the bar tender randomly drops drinks at random points on the bar. You'd hit space bar at the right time to take the drink.
I absolutely do not expect to find this game for the rest of my life, and all I want is to know what the fully hottest date looks like. 7 year old me was blown away by a blonde starting to lift her skirt up. :(

A belt buckle.
I don't care about belt buckles, but this has been one of my biggest regrets for the last decade.
Having dinner with some friends at the Irving Big Stop, take a walk through the various tourist junk and stop to laugh at the ridiculous belt buckle display. Then I see it...
It's a buckle with a truck driving toward you, with an eagle soaring behind it. I assume it's meant to be patriotic or represent the freedom of the road or something like that. What it actually looks like is an eagle giving it to a tractor trailer.
Didn't buy it, but went back a week later to get it as a gag gift for one of my friends. Never saw it again. I've looked at every belt buckle display at every truck stop, mall kiosk, flea market... I even asked the original Big Stop where they get their buckles from in there hopes of buying straight from the distributor.
Other problems just don't compare.

A show i think it was a cartoon though may of been an anime. It was on cartoon network in Australia im not aware of the year. It was about someone who travelled to a universe with demon like creatures that competed in a game like battle where they would duel each other. There was a guy that after he slept would turn into a dog and after the dog slept for 3 days would turn into the human again. And the main character had a talking ball on a stick like weapon.

Rameez.
I don't know if that is how you spell your name or what your last name is, but I met you when I was in Grade 6 visiting Karachi, Pakistan from Canada. You were my family's neighbour and we always played soccer in the streets.
Before my flights back, you ran up to my taxi with an enclosed envelope and told me to only read it when I boarded the plane.
I know I was just a kid but that letter made me cry the entire flight back home. You talked about yourself, our brief friendship and included your contact info and a small picture of you. You told me to never forget you and I never did.
If this sounds like you, please PM me. I've been waiting my whole life to catch up with you.

The names of two games which I played ages ago but can't seem to find again:
The first was a PC game. One of the first to do 3d graphics. It was an action-adventure game, and it had a third person perspective with a fixed camera. You live in a post-apocalyptic world. The only surviving cities are situated under beams of light emanating through the clouds (think nuclear winter) and everywhere outside the city is total darkness/chaos etc. The character himself has two 'sides' a light side and a dark side. One fights and the other communicates/interacts etc.
The second was an SNES game and my memory of it is VERY hazy. Side-scrolling with RPG elements in it. I remember that there was magic but I didn't get to the stage where I could actually use it. It was insanely difficult. In the first stage you descend into this cave --- that's all I remember because that's as far as I ever got!
Edit:- More on the SNES game: you're going up these rocks inside the cave and there's this one bad-guy very early on who kills you dead, every time.

Just a bit of back story. I'm a guy, I am trans, and when I transition I want to be called Sarah.
The weirdest thing happened the other day, I met another girl named Sarah, now that's a common name so its nbd right? But after a while I realized we have almost EVERYTHING in common, music, mannerisms, sense of humor, taste in movies etc. She also calls me her soul sister but has no idea that I'm trans! She refers to me as a girl sometimes and me and her just go with it but she doesn't know!
I don't know why I put this here but I think I have been looking all of my life to find somebody I can actually confide in, and I was starting to think I wouldnt find them, and now I really think I have!!!
If this is too far from what you were asking for just let me know and I'll remove it :)

I don't know what they are called but it's basically you telling a story while drawing on a piece of paper. At the end of the story you end up with a drawing of a turkey or something.

When I was a small child, I always carried a stuffed bunny around. I lost it in a mall when I was 3yo. According to my family, it was a tragedy that left me incredibly shy and detached. It's really easy for me to drop relationships without any distress, and I can't help but wander if it's because I lost my best friend when I was little. Ever since, I've always searched the stuffed animal section of every store I go to. Especially during Easter time. But, even after 19 years, no luck.

My mother's favorite stirring spoon. It's one of those old rubbermaid ones with a flat handle with a little dent in it and perfect circle holes in the relatively shallow spoon. It's perfect for everything but I can't find more just like it. I'd get a dozen if I could, some for her and some for me.

So, it's discontinued but some people sell them.
There's also a clear enough picture, and stated dimensions, to fabricate a replica if you were so inclined.
A simple mold could do it without any advanced skill.
You could also print one of you had a printer capable of heating to over 400ยฐ
So try one of the manufacturing/3d printing subs and see if you can't commission a replica with that picture and the dimensions on the site.

No problem.
Try something stiff and reasonably cheap covered in cooking silicon.
Then you just have to mill/carve the structural part and dip it (or parts of it) in the silicon.
Probably safer for you than whatever plastic they originally used.

4 leaf clover
Avatar_Of_Brodin ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:49:32 on November 17, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
I've got your back.
Step 1: Find a patch of clover. I know, how obvious.
Step 2: Don't get on your hands and knees to look for them, stand up straight and scan the patch. Why? Because your brain's pretty decent at spotting things that don't match the pattern, such as a clover with an extra leaf.
Step 3: Move a few clovers around and repeat step 2. Just run your hand or foot through them real quick and scan again.
Late summer is the best time to find them, and if you find one in a patch odds are very good you'll find more. Some varieties are more likely to mutate than others too. My parents have one that grows up to 8 leaves pretty regularly.

An animated show I watched as a kid. It was probably from the mid 90s. The Only things I can recall is that the sat around a round table and had a big screen on the wall. The got a mission and helmets dropped down from the roof, one for each of the guys who sat around the table. Then the like drove away in big cool trucks and kinda saved the day.
Somebody who knows which show it can have been. It's a long shot but still worth a try.

So I was on reddit a few years ago (yeah I know big surprise) looking around when something caught my eye. It was this comment about someone wanting to be a parent, and all of the things he or she would do as a parent to try and make his child's life as best as he could possibly make it. I was reading this going "God, this is exactly what I want to do as a parent when I'm older." After doing this I unconsciously closed reddit. That is one of the top 5 worst things I have done in my relatively short life. As I was a fairly new to reddit at the time, I never knew about a save button. I wasn't smart enough to take a screen-shot or to try to record it in anyway. Remember reading that comment, outlining everything I wanted to do as a parent, even things I was never able to put into words before. I was absolutely stunned reading it. This wasn't some cookie cutter buzzfeed crap. It conformed to my ideals and values in almost every way I could've imagined at the time. The problem is I never could find that comment again. I searched for days and days, asking anyone I could find for help, but it was all in vain. I was mentally kicking myself in the balls for a week or two after that, I was so pissed at myself. Seeing what you want to do as a parent outlined for you in almost perfect detail, when you yourself don't even have a concrete idea as to what you want to do yet. That sounds almost impossible. Yet, it happened to me. I'll never forget that damned comment. It is what inspired me to become a parent. It inspired me to look for someone special in my life. To this day there is very little I regret more than passing by that one comment, that one piece of inspiration and hope, that I could one day have someone who loved me as much as I loved them, and a special someone to call my own.

The title of a short story my dad read me as a kid. It was in a collection of old stories. Basically it's about a man and a rat shipwrecked on an island and competing through the whole plot for food and survival. At the end a ship comes and picks the guy up but leaves the rat, but he throws bread overboard for it. The last scene is the rat gorging itself on a pile of bread.
It's been bugging me for years. I really want to read it again.

Could it be "Three Skeleton Key"? I'm only familiar with the Vincent Price old-time-radio version of this story, but according to Wikipedia it was a written story first. Not exactly what you describe but at least has some similar elements.

I'm gonna go with something more obscure here. Translations to all the non-English dialogue in episodes of The Simpsons.
Simpsons Archive does not have all translations, and I don't know of other fan site that might. But then I can finally answer questions like: What did the angry French ticket clerk say in Euro Itchy & Scratchy Land? What were Apu and Manjula arguing about in their native language (sorry Homer, I doubt "Manjula" is some kind of a spaceship)?

A photography book. Interference by Nick Rhodes. I know two people who own a copy but they have never dug it out of their parents basements for me to even see a copy. I purchased one from EBay when eBay first started, some guy in Brazil, sent the money and never ever received the book and then he disappeared.
Every used book store, thrift store, record store, I always look. I probably always will. I've been looking since the mid 80's.

Long ago McDonalds used to have a promotion where they gave tiny packages of flavoured powder with their fries, and you could put the fries in a bag and add the powder, shake them up and have flavored fries. They were so good... I miss them. I have tried buying popcorn flavoring and doing it myself but it was never the same.

There was a movie I watched when i was younger and I have no idea what the name of it is. Its some kind of comedy about these criminals? and they rob a bank. When they ask the teller to hand over a bag for the money but there is a big plexiglass sheet separating them so he throws it over and it gets caught in the fan. The teller tries to free the bag but he is crazy short and is jumping with a broom and not getting anywhere near it.
I think there is also a baby in the back seat of the getaway car?
I've never figured out what the movie is called and I've been looking on and off for years.

My grandfather's military records.
He served in WWII in the Signal Corps. Unfortunately it seems his records were lost in a fire a few decades ago, or at least that was what my brother was told the last time he tried to file a formal request for them.
He died when I was 2 1/2 years old. My grandmother passed about five years ago and I was a fool and never asked her about Grampa when I had the chance. I'd like to know more of his story.
What I do know: when he was shipped out he started in Africa and then moved north into the European theater via Italy. I know his unit was the first into Dachau to take care of the survivors after the liberation. But that's it: a rough outline. I'd like to know more.

Also a recipe that actually replicates the noodles from Manchu Wok. They always get the sauce wrong or the type of noodle wrong, and I'm too chicken to ask the ladies who work there what type of noodles they actually use. I've tried shitloads of copycat recipes and even tried making Yakisoba thinking that might be what I'm looking for, but something was still off :(

A book, I read years ago..I cannot even find it on Google. A man on a boat is trolling along a cliff, and finds a small statue embedded in it. The statue is of a humanoid with webbed hands and feet, if I can recall correctly. He takes the statue and learns somehow that it belongs to an ancient race of beings under the sea. I remember the story ending with a lot of fire, and lava, under the sea or near the earth's core. Great book. The cover was a picture of the statue, and the sides of the pages were red in color.

A video game, I've posted it up on /r/Tipofmyjoystick before with no luck... here goes anyway!
[PC][Early to mid 90's]
submitted 1 year ago by Nettychan
Platform(s): PC
Genre: Seemed to be a type of murder mystery, or at least you progressed the story by moving around, collecting items and talking to people.
Estimated year of release: Early to mid 90's
Graphics/art style: Pixelated, the parts I remember were set in a city. The play options were located at the bottom of the screen at all times.
Other details: The most prominent thing I can remember about this game was a scene where you go up stairs to the roof of a building and a man shoots you. You are given an option to use an item and to survive you've to use a bible to absorb the shot.
This has been bugging me for a long long time so I appreciate the help! What's worse is it wasn't my game but a friends and they can't remember it either -.-

Costco in Canada used to carry this tomato soup by the brand of Johnny's. I bought a pack and it was the best tomato soup I'd ever tasted. Went back to Costco a few weeks later to buy more and they discontinued it. :(
I emailed them and even posted on a gold giving sub and offered a year of gold for anyone who could find this soup available to ship to Canada. Nobody could find it.

Why are car headlights on a (constant 12v) circuit where they can be left on? Your car radio, your wipers, your seat heaters, these are all on the switched 12v circuit. You turn your car off, all these things turn off automatically. I think it's a conspiracy by big battery.

So, picture this. It's midnight. You're at an intersection and just as you want to turn left, your motor stalls (word?). Oops wrong gear.
Would you want oncoming traffic, or traffic from behind, to know you're there, or would you rather save some battery? (tbh I'm TRYING to find a situation where it would make sense)
Dudestorm ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 23:35:57 on November 17, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Reasonable circumstances. However, if your motor just stalls, without you moving the ignition switch, your radio, wipers, etc don't turn off. In the situation that you've mentioned, where I would definitely want to have headlights, I don't think it would turn off the headlights in either case, as a constant 12v (how cars are wired) or a switched 12v (how I think it should be wired).
I_press_keys ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 23:59:47 on November 17, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
And then you restart the engine, during which it does. (though newer cars seem to have better ways to do this than to turn the key both ways, and with newer I mean the common car, by now, I guess)
Either way, you're probably right.

My Subaru turns the headlights off if you take the key out even if the switch is on. I usually just leave the switch on all the time so that I kind of have automatic headlights.

With modern cars, the lights do go off when you turn the car off. With mine, if I need to leave the lights on, you have to turn them off and back on again whilst the car is off.
In some circumstances, you do need to leave your sidelights on when parked. Main lights on are useful for foggy situations or if you want to get out of your car and use the lights to see something.

Most movies have super long cuts early on in the process.

I jumped schools a lot as a kid. Divorces and custody battles, you know. Anyway, at one of the schools the teacher starts to read us a story. His friend was writing it, and it was to be a children's fantasy novel. Whenever a chapter was finished, the teacher would read it out loud. It was amazing. Unfortunately, since I jumped schools a lot, I only got to hear the first few chapters. I was in the 2nd or 3rd grade so I can't remember the title or main character. But it was a girl, and she lived in a cottage thing with her parents and shed befriended a fairy. The fairy had to go fix some shit, so she wanted the girl to come with her cuz she was wicked smart. Of course, magic was kind of outlawed and crap too. It was way better than I'm making it sound. But yeah, I would love to find that damn book of it ever got published. Or at least somehow remember the name.

Copied from my (obviously unsuccessful) post on TOMT:
I'm looking for a music video that I saw around 2005 - 2007 I believe, though I am pretty sure the channel it was on was one which played a fair bit of older music, so I am not sure on release date. The entire video was just a car driving forward in the desert until it eventually passed where the camera was, and the video ended. I don't remember anything about the song at all, which leads me to believe there may not have even been any words. This video also seemed to go on for 10+ minutes.

So about three years ago my wife and I saw a necklace in a store window, and she said, "Something like that for Christmas would be nice."
I promptly forgot about it or where we saw it, but then when Christmas was approaching I remembered and tried to find it, and nope can't find it or anything quite like it.
It is basically a silver necklace with hammered rings/hoops where each section has a large ring and a smaller ring overlapping and each connected to a small link... really simple actually, but kind of hard for me to explain. Basically a chain with small links alternated with hammered rings with two overlapping rings, then another small link, then two more overlapping rings...
I think it had about 7 of the hammered segments, and a chain around the back.

Every year I spend a couple of days looking before her birthday and Christmas. I've found some that were close, but none that were close enough.

One night I was driving home from work. on some college radio station a blues singer did a cover of Billie Jean that blew my mind. (It was a guy, the song was slow, he played guitar and sounded black...so basically a blues singer)
It was awesome and I have never heard it or found it again. I've listened to many bad covers on YouTube trying to find this one.

That is close but not the one. I heard it about 6-8 years ago.
I imagine my singer could have heard this version or the other way around. It is the right speed and kind of the right feel.
The version playing in my head has a true blues guitar and a more soulful singer. My search continues...

All I can remember is a family helped her family of Jews (or vice versa) and a vividly described scene about German shepherds raiding her house or something. There were psalms and maybe a necklace involved in the story?
Also a movie about WWII called like Saints/Soldiers or something. A group of misfit soldiers band together in the woods or something. I can't remember but I know I'm not crazy.

I vaguely remember some old PS2 game. I don't actually know at this point if it really exists or if I made it up in my head. I vaguely recall exploring some castle in an open 3D environment as some pink haired girl. It seemed mostly empty. Then I recall switching control to a blonde guy with a sword in what looked to be the same castle, but heavily run down, suggesting playing through different time periods.
That's literally all I remember of it, and everyone I mention to has never heard of anything like it. Will note before anyone mentions common guesses: Not Dark Cloud (or the sequel, Dark Cloud 2/Dark Chronicle), probably not Star Ocean.

A film/tv show. It was about some people in a desert or western? All i remember was there was a character with a leather mask because he was burned but he was really funny and outgoing character. He has long brown hair in a ponytail.
Another character was this gupsy girl her parents were escaping in their caravan when she fell off and met up with the masked man and his friends. She took off the masked mans mask in one scene and started making out with him in front of the campfire. I always wondered what this film was.

Around 10-15 years ago I saw a music video for a cover of Nena's 99 Luftballons. It was by some obscure British rock band, in English, and the singer was this teenage-yong adult girl with long, black hair and, I think, she was wearing a black leather jacket. The video was mostly shot in black and white, with footage from some music festival/concert.
It wasn't a great cover. And the girl wasn't particularly hot. But she reminded me of my first girlfriend and for a long time I wanted to see that video again.

Happiness.
chickendinosaur ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:23:44 on November 17, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Hey, I was just reading SuperBetter by Jan McGonigal and she mentions the idea that if your goal is to achieve happiness, you usually end up sort of off track and unhappy. However, if you try to 'sneak up on happiness' or try to achieve happiness adjacently, your success rates will be much higher. Instead of making the goal happiness, you make the goal(s) things that can contribute to happiness. These things usually include socializing with friends and family, interacting with animals or children, helping others, learning new things, trying new skills, etc. Helping other people tends to be a huge contributing factor in happiness.
So, instead of thinking to yourself 'I wish I was happy' or 'things would be better if I was happy' try and focus instead on a specific action you can take sneakily towards happiness.
Some things that I try include: trying out a new baking recipe and giving the treats to a friend or neighbor, texting someone I haven't talked to in a while and asking how they are doing on a scale of 1-10 (instead of just 'how ya doin') which I then follow up with how can I help make your [whatever number they say] turn into a [their number plus 1], volunteering at animal shelters or picking up trash in state parks, taking a walk downtown and trying to genuinely compliment at least one person per block.
I hope you sneak up on happiness :)

A song I heard roughly 10 years ago. At this point I don't remember any of the words words from it.
What I do remember is the primary instrument is a piano. It starts off as a man singing a line, then he is joined by a woman in singing that same verse, and it becomes a group singing that verse. However, when he does the duet with the woman, there's an additional instrument in the background that I don't know the name of (I swear it sounds like a triangle).
Does anyone recognize this? (I'm pretty sure it's an obscure song, because I've tried google searching back when I did remember some words from it, but got nothing of the sort)

Those Japanese dried hermit crab snacks. They are kind of like a salty, smelly, crab jerky.
A friend I worked with had a wife from Japan. He brought in some of the snacks and they were great, but he quit shortly there after and I have no way to ask him about them.
Internet searches tell me they are called Tamagogani, but I can't find them in any Oriental grocery, and the only person I found selling them on the 'net (on eBay) wanted an absurd price for a bag, like $30 or something for a very small amount.
They are a common snack in Japan, from what I understand, but no one seems to import them. Sure I can still get dried squid at the Asian grocer, but it's just not the same.

Damn that is hard to find except for http://www.theswissbakeryonline.com/ where a pack of 24 comes up to over $140 USD shipped. I couldn't find anything. A possible option is to ship it to a US address using http://shiptotheborder.com/. Best option I could find. If your not located close to the border or dont have access to a car, then it may be out of reach.

There's this song my dad sings sometimes but we can't find it anywhere online. The lyrics are, "Sur la mer, il y a un bateau qui vogue, bateau qui vogue, bateau qui vogue..." We know that it's from the 1970s or earlier, it was on a record, and the singer was from Quebec, so it may have been a very local song.

Happiness.
2 years ago I was in a relationship, happy, making myself better with every day. When it ended I fell apart and for the past 2 years I've been trying to get back to that state but I've had no luck. It gets to the point where you wonder if you'll ever be happy again. Maybe it's normal to not be happy and I'm aiming for something unattainable. I don't know...

I have his full name and former address, but he moved (wrote him a snail mail letter once a few years after camp and it got returned with "recipient no longer at this address, no forwarding address known" written on it).
unfortunately, he shares the exact same name as a celebrity, so trying to find him on social media/Google has proved fruitless.

A Game that was on either windows 3.1 or something that old.
You have to put booby traps (bombs ..something slippery ..etc on a 3 floor view and then you start the game. The aim was to go to the door with your hero character and the enemies pass through those traps ..
The emimies looked like hooded people (might look like this but white http://www.darkknightarmoury.com/images/PRODUCT/large/100298_2_.png )
and there is a small man character that you go up the 3 floors with ladders.

Only other bit I can really remember is that you get outside and there's a fight with 3 guys and one of them has a slightly better shield...
Have tried to find it for years but to no avail.

This is going to sound silly, but after my wife an I got married this commercial always came on TV that she found hilarious. Neither of us can remember what it even was for, all we can remember is the wife asking her husband what he's doing, and he replies, "Taking off that dirty sock!". Maybe it was a fabreeze commercial. I have no idea. Really not sure why she found it so funny.
Zabunia ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 10:43:29 on November 18, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
Sounds like this:
"But, my all time favorite has to be the new Summer's Eve Commercial. A man is shown rifling through some dirty laundry in search of a pair of socks. He finds a sock, sniffs it, crinkles his nose at the stench, but still determines it is good for use and begin to put on the sock. His wife walks into the room and indignantly says, 'What are you doing?' to which he replies, 'Taking off that dirty sock!' Funny. Until I found out it was douche commercial."
It's from a blog post made in 2006, so that might narrow it down a little.

A documentary. It was about elite athletes who sometimes have one perfect performance (e.g. at the Olympics) and what's going through their head at the time. It was a really interesting insight into their mental state and the psychology of athletic performance. Being "in the zone" was a term employed repeatedly.
I was watching it on a plane years ago and I didn't get to finish it, but I didn't remember the title and my googling was fruitless.

They weren't made out of yarn or anything, but just some sort of soft cotton thread. I have been looking for probably over 10 years now because it'd be so special to me to find one but I have a feeling they must not be made commonly anymore :(

None. It would have made it easy if there were even a couple words I could have remembered so I could google, but there were no words in the song. Just a beautiful melody that sounds irish with a techno-y background. There were the words "Techno House" written on the tape, but my friend told me directly that the words had no connection to the song whatsoever, she just never knew the name of the song.

Back in Junior high my best friends and I made this stupid home video with an old video camera. One friend was the "dead" guy we just dragged around, and the rest of us just played out ridiculous scenarios. From the very beginning we found this old plastic penguin that was about 12-18" tall, translucent white on one half, and transparent on the other. Right at the end of the "movie" the penguin broke during one of the takes, and the next day my friend's mom threw it away. I have been trying for 10 years to find duplicate penguins for all my friends as a Christmas gift, but have never been able to.
I believe I found one on Ebay earlier this year, but by the time I found it it had already ended. If I'm remembering correctly, it was the penguin on the left in that picture, the largest one. I need four of those and my life's search would be complete.

It was so freaking funny at the time, because the dude edited the fuck out of it, using the ROFL face on almost everything, and adding little edits here and there that me made me laugh. No audio, but he used subtitles to make comments, that were so freaking funny to me.
I want to see this let's play again so badly.

A video game where you're trying to save your kidnapped daughter from zombies? I think you're a scientist in an old building. I remember one part where you have to play a piano but some of the keys are broken and you have to play the scale without hitting the broken keys? It's been bugging me forever.

I've tried to find it for years but as the old school MP3 player had no screen, I never knew the name and all I have to go on is a couple lines I think I remember correctly.

I remember watching a Bill Nye video during middle school. During the show there was this brief preview of a fake tv show about this family who has a son who is a unicellular organism. It was quite amusing because the lone cell was his face. All I remember was the dad playing catch with the sun, and throwing it into the glove, and it stayed there in the glove next to the son/cell who never stopped smiling.

Two things really.
1) a copy of Judas Priest covering Joleen. Think I saw it on channel 4 (UK when we only had 4 channels) in the late 80s or early 90s. Might have been on the tube (Friday night TV show of the era). It was a live performance. Was brilliant.
2) This one I might have imagined. I think I read a short story (children's book) aged around 5, so circa 1978 or 9. Story was basically alomg the lines of god was creating all the creatures in the world, the devil watches and wants to try but god says nah. Devil still wants to create something so he mines and mines and gets enough clay together to make the bumble bee. Never forgotten that story. If I just imagined it I should probably write it (could do from memory).

This book, it was kind of depressing I think. It was about a boy, I think he lived in Brooklyn. And the only scene I remember is that he met this other boy, and they went skinny dipping, and I think the other boy hurt him because he finds bruises later? Or something like that.
I want to find it because years ago I was in a bookstore with my dad, and I was too shy to ask him for a book bc my mother could never afford to buy us things, and he told me he'd never mind buying a book for me. So I picked that one out.

In the 1970s or 80s, there was a commercial/public service announcement by the US Postal Service. The upshot was , if you received a package in the mail that you didn't order, you got to keep it. For comedic effect, they showed an Eskimo holding an electric fan and giving the camera a thumbs-up. A few years ago, I mentioned this commercial to my friends, and they roundly mocked me for blathering about a commercial that, in their opinion, clearly never existed. I have been looking for the commercial online for gloating purposes ever since. Someday . . . .

A weird David Lynch series on ABC called "On The Air." It was right after Twin Peaks, and ABC wanted to do another series with him. He came up with this weird idea for a sitcom about a radio show trying to transition to TV or something like that.

A pub I used to go to as a child in the mid 80s. It may have closed down by now, but I'd love to know what happened to it.
At the time, we lived near Camberley in Surrey. I remember referring to the pub as "The pub in Hatch" but I would have been about five at the time, so that may not have been anything to do with the name.
Things I remember:
I don't know where it was, but we lived on the Surrey/Hampshire/Sussex border. My dad had friends around Basingstoke, but it wasn't necessarily there. I think it was far enough away that we went relatively rarely - it wasn't our local - but I could be wrong.
I don't believe it's the Hatch Pub in the Ashdown Forest.
If anyone has any ideas at all on where this pub is or might have been, I'd love to know. This has been bugging me for years - my dad remembers the pub but not where it was and I can't ask my mother, so I've no way of finding it and I really have looked everywhere.

A friend told it to me once. Something about tourists on a bus, and a guessing game. It was kind of long doing this guessing game with a bunch of different nationalities. Then something about Canadians getting on the bus and they want to play, so the guys try to come up with something really difficult and the Canadian's first guess (the correct one) was "Is it Moose Cock?"

A movie/show that I saw when I was little. All I can remember is that in one scene two military men are fighting and one puts a green ball into the others mouth and that kills him.
Another movie about a terrorist. The scenes I remember are where one man has a bomb strapped to him. He has a stick behind his arms on which he has to balance a little ball which he fails to do so it explodes. In the beginning a man defuses a bomb outside the capitol and later throws up. Over a decade for both and still no luck.

Small rectangular throw pillow that was a dark red color with gold twisted ropes cross crossing, the pillow had a matching gold twisted cord sewn into the boarder seams. Gold tassels on each corner.
I swore if I see it anywhere, even if I have to steal it, I will get it. No luck..

A possibly '90s computer game set in a mansion, first person. All I remember about it is the paintings on the walls changing from normal paintings into gruesome versions, and similar horror type things. I have no recollection otherwise of any other details. It's been very hard to find any information on it!

It switched from person to person in the family as different things went wrong and what not. There was this one episode where the dad had a really bad case of pink eye and there was an entire battle scene (think duel of the fates) inside the retina of the eye. Someone please help, I will love you forever if you find this. Thanks.

It's just generic enough of a setting/video that searching for it is all but impossible though.
Just once more I'd like to furiously snap one off to that video.

A movie I watched once at 4am when I was 14. All I can remember are sparse details: A kid has a pretty close relationship with his neighbor for some reason. At some point, I think the neighbor character dies. In his will (or through some other means) the neighbor leaves the kid a key which is hidden in a garden birdhouse. Kid goes to the garden and gets the key, which has some sort of magical power. But there is also another kid character throughout the movie that has cancer. Because of his sickness, he gets made fun of and is disallowed from playing baseball. At the end of the movie, the original kid uses the key to cure the cancer of the latter kid.
I don't know. I'm pretty sure I'm confusing details or adding in my own.

A book that I bought in October 2002 from 99 Cents Only Stores and then donated to a library.
I don't remember the title, author, or story. The only thing I can recall is that it was a young adult fantasy, somewhat short in length, that might have involved the main character being unable to move past an invisible wall. One would think that a book as forgettable as that should simply be forgotten, but no. I am obsessed with finding this book because I cannot find it, and the hunt thrills me.
I also remember liking the book, but it is baffling how I could forget so many details about a book that I apparently liked.

I have not heard it since, and needless to say I love this song. I have a feeling it may be in some private recording reserve that the station has, but it it is too good not to be available somewhere.

A girl named Tanya Cooper. When I was a kid in New Hampshire there was this girl who had a huge crush on me, even telling me on a daily basis how much she loved me. Me being in the "girls are icky" phase of my life, I pushed her away and tried to just be friends with her. I was a dick to her, though, and everyone else bullied her because of her crush. I remember one day she came into class with a crown made of vines. Everyone in the class, including myself, pointed and laughed at her. She burst into tears and ran out of the classroom. I don't recall ever seeing her again, but I wish I could so I can say I'm sorry for being a fucktard as a kid. :(

Information on my grandfather's WWII service. My dad never really knew his father (my grandfather passed away when my dad was 10) and his mother never told him about his father's service. We know what unit (if that's what it's called) he was in but we don't know exactly what he did or where we went. We tried writing to the National Archives but apparently there was a fire a number of years back that destroyed the section of documents my grandfather's information would've been in.

These jello cup things... I experienced them once visiting family friends, in Florida IIRC, and I couldn't stop eating them.
They were semi-spherical (or hemisphere) individually packed "cups" that you would peel the top off of and slurp the gelatin out of... maybe it was actually fruit. There were all kinds of flavors of fruits and all tasted amazing! I have looked for them since but I cannot find them - this was over 10 years ago.

A flash game from addictinggames where you played as what was essentially a futuristic space slingshot, slinging balls of plasma at enemy vehicles on Mars. I think it's been almost 8 years since I played it but it was the best flash game I've ever played.

A computer game from the late 90s or early 2000s. You had to help this little robot do a bunch of crazy tasks to defeat this bratty blonde girl with pigtails..I think she was the daughter of a scientist or something? You had to help all these other robots that she had stolen and reprogrammed. I think the setting was a big lab. This has been bothering me for years.

An online game about talking yourself out of a mugging. It was illustrated/cartoony. You're at an ATM and a homeless guy comes up to you and asks for money. You have decisions like offering to buy him a meal, or give him some money. Then he'll say that's not enough, or ask for more and more money, etc. I beat it once, and then promptly lost it.

The song I nearly went mad to while under nitrous for surgery at the dentist. The doctor said he forgave me. I assume I threatened to actually murder/do even more horrible things to him while swearing if he didn't change the station.
My only memory of the music I have left unsuppressed is "I get you get you to love you...all I know is to tell you to hold you tight..." But that is likely a slurring of lyrics. I felt like I was literally dying and it was mostly the song.

I don't care what it is, or where it is or what i have to pay for it, I just can't believe for one second that there exists no recording of this event whatsoever, and all I want to do SO BADLY is participate in the capitalist system and give someone whatever monetary compensation they desire to have a copy of this VERY special event in my life. That's all. There exists absolutely NOTHING that I can find. I've searched for years.

Waay back when during like 1999 or early 2000 my family finally got a computer and internet installed in our new house and there really wasn't anything to do on the web except chat and read stories that people would write up and post on various forums. I remember one story I read featured a guy stuck in a zombie apocalypse with his sister and constantly having a mysterious voice call him from various phones from the places he ends up giving him advice. At the end, it's revealed that there were no zombies after all and that he doesn't even have a sister, but was in a coma and the voice on the phone he was hearing was actually his doctor talking to him when he was inside the coma.
I just remember it having some extremely poignant ending line and being super feely and it always stuck to me for some reason. After years or trying I cannot find the slightest mention of it anywhere even with waybackmachine. I've accepted that it's probably lost forever like a lot of that old stuff back when.

I'm looking for a book that students were given when they left a school in England. It was filled with poetry. This is from the '90's. The school was a little school in Northampton, England. I can give me details if anyone can help.
The worst part is, I was given one when I left even though I wasn't in the right year to receive it. My copy had an inscription from my favorite teacher. I think my parents have it somewhere, but I don't know where after moving from England to the US and then to NZ. I just want another copy of the book.

Sometime around 2005 I was listening to one of my sister's CDs. There was this song on it that began with a rescue team finding a group of people trapped in the mountains. There were sounds of helicopter blades and a woman screaming. If I remember correctly, they were talking about how the group had resorted to cannibalism. Then the song started. Pretty disturbing stuff, but I've always wondered about it.

This could be a complete sidetrack thing, but I remember it being on my big old TV that used VCR tapes, and I associate it with a Tom and Jerry themed thing or Oliver and company.

I know there are some on eBay for ridiculous prices that I do not have the money for, so until then I will continue looking on Craigslist and flea markets and stuff. And if others can point me in other directions as to where I could find it, that'd be great!! :)

A multiplayer fighting game like Tekken or Mortal Kombat from the late 90s or early 00s. It had this one tall white dude with bright red hair you could play as. I think every other character was Asian. On the sudden death rounds, you played on a floating square and one of these sudden death rounds was set in an icy area.
It could be Tekken or Mortal Kombat, but Googling has given me nothing for the big red headed dude.

In the UK back in 2001, Alistair McGowan did a spoof of Harry Potter called Louis Potter and the Philosopher's Scone. It was hilarious and even had the proper actors of Snape and Hagrid in it. Ron was played by Anne Robinson. Help me Reddit.

I downloaded this App called tunein radio for android. Basically I found this station called something like "The best jams - Mix shows and Mixtapes"
It was god tier, absolutely amazing hip hop. But the stream went down and I can't find a single song from that playlist
Here it is actually : http://tunein.com/radio/The-Best-Jams---Mixshows--Mixtapes-s167771/#
But its been offline forever

A book I read as a child. I remember bits and pieces. There was a kid who lived in an apartment block and he meets a weird spotty neighbour kid who kept tropical fish. He didn't want the neighbour to know where he lived so he told him that his dad owned the building or something and they lived on a secret floor that the elevator wont travel to. The kid was filling out applications for a boarding school and he decided to put details from the neighbour kid's life in the applications (like the tropical fish thing) and ends up being paired up as roommates.

No one believed me later in my childhood when I said I knew where the lamp was from when they first released their movies, or how long ago I had seen it.
No matter how hard I look, I can't bloody find this demo set.

I've been looking for a short story I read on the internet years ago. I thought it was on McSweeney's, I though it was by Conan O'Brien. At this point though I've start questioning my sanity and thinking that it may have just been a dream.
The story is about a group of soldiers, possibly in Vietnam, that are really well read and philosophical to the point of being ridiculous. They have required reading and even the meat head idiot of the group tries to pipe in on the topics they bring up.
I thought it was funny. Every once in a while I'll try to find it. No luck yet. Someday... hopefully.

I know this thread is old so therefore this comment will get buried, but the only thing that i've been trying to find for years was an old program I used to play with on my old Windows 95 computer. It had a bunch of simulations on it, ranging from lightning storms to citys lighting up at night. I remember you could use sliders to change a few things (speed, intensity, etc.) but it was soooo long ago that I might be imagining things at this point. If anybody knows what i'm on about, i'd love for someone to at least figure out the name of it!

A recipe for blueberry-marshmallow ice cream by Baskin & Robbins.
According to my Dad, the had it when he was 8 or 9, so that would have been around 1961-3 sometime. He had it, loved it, went back for it as often as he could. It rotated out, and he never found it again.
He has tried to make it, I have searched online for it periodically since 2004, I even wrote the company. Twice. Didn't even get a generic form letter back. :(
It is one of the handful of things I look for every time I walk through the appropriate part of a store.
Tl;dr: Ice cream that my Dad loved, tried everything I could think of. Edit: Wrong year

It was a gray, long sleeved shirt from Big Sky, Montana, and the way they wrote it looked like a Coors beer logo. It was a really baggy shirt, which made it cozy, especially in the cold winter. I had it for a few months, and it disappeared. :( It was my favorite, and it still kind of is a little bit.

"Halleluuuuuu I am here to stay. The song didn't make any sense but I would love to hear it again! Every now and then it gets stuck in my head 20 years later!

A commercial from the 90s or early 00s with an old woman and a guy in a car and the woman can't see over the steering wheel.
The dialog goes "I can't see!" "Raise the seat"raises seat "I can't reach the pedals!" "Lower the seat" lowers the seat "I can't see!" "Raise the seat", and so on.
My sister and I used to quote this all the time, but neither of us can prove its existence.

A SUPER old text-based game that I played on one of the first Macs. The mac I played it on didn't even have grayscale, just black and white pixels.
I'm pretty sure the game was called Vampire's Castle. It had pictures but it was text based, you could look at the picture of the room and write commands. There was a parapet that you had to tie a rope to. You had only a certain number of commands and then the vampire would wake up, game over. I got so far, I was in the room with the sleeping vampire but then I had to go home after the summer (was visiting grandparents) and never played it again. I played it in 1996 or so, it was old as shit then.

My wife and I were driving out of College Station, Texas, in 2008, listening to the local radio in the car. We're both pretty into heavy metal and punk, and the station was playing some rocking tunes.
Just as we hit the edge of town, this track came on that was BLISTERING neo-punk. Furious guitars, the vocalist was wavering between clean vocals and screamo, and the drums were a mile a minute. Great melody. Tight as hell. That kind of music that Rise Against has capitalized (we checked, it ain't them). We literally stopped chatting to turn up the radio and let this song blow us away.
We remember the chorus, sorta:
Now time is up my friend
And I'll see you again
(something something) defend
And I'm waiting for the end
After the song was over, the station immediately played something else that wasn't as good, and we missed the DJ naming the band later.
This song has eaten a hole in our brains, as we try to find it. The song, the band, anything, god damn it. But no - probably some college band that never got signed, and nobody has ever known which song or band we're talking about.
For the musical, the verse melody was an 8-bar 2nd E on guitar melody, kind of like what the Ramones used to do, with heavier distortion and faster picking. The chorus was: C - G - F# - A slide to G, 4 bar melody. (We both play music, and can hum the tune easily.)
[EDIT] Clarification: It was a band with two guitarists, a bassist, a vocalist, and a singer. The lyrics of the song were bittersweet loss and victory combined, an ode to someone saying goodbye to someone who has fought and won, only to die. We BOTH assumed it was Rise Against, but I own all of their discography, including extensive bootlegs, and this song is not in their repertoire - also, the singer of this song sounded like, but not identical to, Tim McIlrath. Same style, different vocal tone. Slightly deeper.

I once sent my girlfriend at the time a weird text passage a friend of mine had posted to his facebook wall. It said something about being at a restaurant with his girlfriend of three years and his mind starting to wander to what kind of underwear the waitresses were wearing. Long story short, I asked the guy's girlfriend what the passage was about and she said it was quote from a movie.
Long story short, my relationship with my girlfriend turned to shit and we broke up 6 months later. When we were breaking up, she told me that things went bad ever since I sent her that email about me thinking about waitresses. I was stunned. I realised I'd sent it to her with no context. She thought it was from me and never brought it up just let it simmer away and frame all my actions for 6 months.
Anyway, the relationship was dead and buried by then. But I've never found the movie or book or whatever that the quote was supposed to be from. Not friends with the guy anymore (unrelated) and it's been so long I'm starting to question how much of it is true.

I will preface this with the chance that it was a dream, but I remember being in elementary school and watching a muppets movie about the dangers of drug use. All I remember was that it was a cartoon instead of puppets, and that there was a scene where the muppets became very small and were swallowed. If this is real I'd love to watch it again for the hell of it.

Okay, probably too late but we'll give it a shot: There was this painting that I saw I think at Musee D'Orsay, it was this huge canvas called something like "The fall of the old gods and the rise of christianity" and it depicted Jesus in the middle, surrounded by his disciples and the archangels as they beat the living shit out of the pagan pantheon. It was awesome, but I cannot for the life of me find it...

2 years ago he completely disappeared, nobody knows what happened to him (including his family). I miss this guy so much that it brings tears to my eyes thinking about it.
Hopefully something turns up someday, until then I just hope he is alive and well.

OK, so there is a movie called Erik the Viking by Monty Python's Terry Jones. When I was a kid my dad recorded it from television onto a vhs and I'd watch it all the time. It was a really brilliant movie. The current release, however (the "producer's cut") is completely butchered shit, but that's the only release I can seem to find, even on torrent sites. The bootlegged vhs is of course gone since I literally watched it to death, so now all I have are memories of a really great movie :(

I've got a couple!
1) a movie I watched in 2007, the first time I smoked. It featured separate groups of highschool kids, that all got into drugs and bad situations. One I remember vividly is a girl getting raped and walking bloody down the middle of the road. She then blew her head off (?) in her pink frilly bedroom. Another girl climbed into a hot oven and her mom found her later.
2) a techno song I heard in 2006 or so. An innocent girl goes from New Jersey to NYC to party for the night, and gets drugged (or starts doing drugs?) etc.
3) a tape I had in HS (like 2000 ish), the girl group was "red" something. Or maybe that was the name of the album?
... I lost my hard drive just after university, didn't think I'd miss all those songs so much! But now I can't remember anything for #tbt :(

Two things. One: a series of short story collections. I think they were called "Junior Reading Books" or something. I only remember two stories, and I think they were from different books in the collection. One about two kids with powers. One kid could DO anything they could think of, the other could KNOW anything. The other story is about a princess who says she loves her father more than meat loves salt and is banished. Two: another book series I read as a kid about monster kids in school. All I remember is the vampire kid drank blood from a thermos all the time.

The supernatural. Angels in particular fallen or heavenly. I went so far as to walk straight into a 12 foot black angel looking demon shadow that shouldn't have been there in the middle of a streetlight. The soldiers in my platoon were shaking uncontrollably and freaking out. I had an assault rifle with me so whatever, I had to see if this was real. When I was in the center of the shadow looking out at members of my platoon it was like looking through a runway mirror. I could see them clearly, but they couldn't see me. They said I was fucking crazy and took another route around the building leaving me by myself to walk on to where I was going.
Coming back one guy grabbed onto the handle of my body armor as I walked through the shadow again. It was a shortcut. His hand was shaking majorly like he was having a seizure as I led him through the shadow.
All my life when I saw something spooky, instead of freaking out and running away, I would turn toward whatever it was and investigate it to see what it really was. No ghosts, angels or demons so far.

A YA book. I think the teen boy witnesses a crime and has to change his name. Or something. He goes to live with distant relatives on a ranch or something. Dude meets a girl and becomes friends with her. Someone from his post life comes back and tries to kill him? There's a scene on a hill where the boy and girl look at the stars. I think. I think those are plot aspects. It's been so long all I have are flashes of running away from danger, old relatives on a ranch, or not even relatives, just the people he moves in with, a girl, and a bad man.

I used to always get them when I went shopping with my Grandma in PA and now I can't find those little delicious cakes anywhere :(

A weird subreddit about a monster dude who hangs out in factories and might be an ARG for a band. It was mostly people exploring abandoned places, finding clues, posting them, and sometimes there's a monster. I don't remember anything else about it.

I'm probably really late to the party. But there was a movie I saw a snippet of, and this kid was flaying his arms around yelling "I don't wanna" my dad was watching it but he can't remember the name of the movie. Apparently the kid turned 13 and became a "teenager" and acted like a typical teen. The moment he turned 13.

These chocolate peppermint truffle bars they used to sell in Milk Bars in the 90s when they would sell from an open box (not individually wrapped).
I've found other chocolate peppermint truffle bars but they just aren't the same.

If anyone reads this it will be greatly appreciated.
Over 6 years ago I found a clip of LittleKuriboh and one of his girl pals doing a bad lip dubbing of 'Road to El Dorado' off the top of their heads, so you can actually hear them laugh at their own jokes as the movie progresses.
One line I will never forget is the girl giggles 'Ew, money!' when the two men drop into the barrels and one coin flips out of one of the barrels.
I've been searching and searching, but eventually I have given up. If ANYONE knows where I can find the original video please let me know!

A book. I even tried on several r/book subreddits, and its infuriating me that I can't find it.
Just in case someone knows the book, here is the basics that I remember;
It takes place in Florida
Its about a girl being sacrificed by a cult
She has nightmares / hallucinations about the impending sacrifice
She moved to Florida to be with (other) family after trying to kill herself
I know thats rather vague, but I borrowed the book from my sister to read, and it got lost somewhere in one of our moves. I want to say the cover had this boat floating down a bayou at night?
I really liked the book and would like to read it again, but no such luck.

There was a commercial for the ford focus i think, it was driving around a European town. I remember the song being awesome, never could find it out. I would search all those adtunes or whatever they were forums. I did find some other good stuff as a result, for example it was around the same time as that VW commercial with the guy trying to get to the wedding to stop it, the song was "million miles away" still on my iTunes.

A detective short story that was in our high school text..
diamonds are stolen and detective is called.. he closes the door with all parties confined.. he successfully deduces the culprit being left-handed (or the other) contrary to what others think his preferred hand is.. the culprit had put the diamonds in a matchbox (don't remember how/where he hid it in the room they were)
I also remember some intro about the author that he was famous for his detective stories or for having created the genre or something like that.. I have searched online many times but no luck :D

When I was a kid in the 90s I was watching MTV or whatever, and a song was playing and the video was weird and super creepy, kind of something like Aphex Twin would do. In the video there were two girls who were like aliens, and they were attached to each other by the head with a long, thick piece of flesh. I don't know what the song was, who sang it, when it came out or anything, I just remember that particular part of the video and that another song playing around that time was Teardrop by Massive Attack (so I would hazard that it was circa 1998 or 99). I've posted about it everywhere, including TOMT, twice, but I still haven't found it.

The name of a cartoon episode I once watched. It's about an old man who is accompanied by a dog to the beach. The old man is a total dick to the dog, and at some point their carriage is taken out to sea, where a giant octopus tries to kill or eat them, at some point the old man uses the dog as a float to try and reach the shore while the octopus chases them. It was fucking weird, never been able to find it since.

A replica of a musical clock my Grandma had in her room in the few years before she died.
I have the original clock, but I want to get another for my Mom as a surprise and I've never been able to find one.
It's a horribly cheesy clock, but my Grandma was going blind and the music was a way for her to tell that time was passing. The songs were familiar, so even as she lost her memory she could sing the words. I spent many, many happy hours with that clock.
It's a "City Scape" Melodies In Motion wall clock by Gustav Becker. I think my Aunt bought it at a religious store down south. It is gold and faux wood. On the hour the clock lights up and sings. It's the most gaudy clock on Earth. If there is ever a fire in my house, I'm saving the clock first because my Grandma loved it.

I still dream of playing this game and some of the others in that pack. I found a list of them, but can't find out how to download/buy a copy, or how I would even run a windows 95 game pack if I did.
Here's a list of all the games, if anyone could help me get even one of them, I would be so happy!

Anyways i think you had to build skyscrapers but there also was this mini game where you would make sandwiches in your lunchbreak. You could put like nuts and bolts and ridiculous things in these sandwiches, it was the shit.

The Silicon Graphics SG Indy and Indigo Linux OS workstations came loaded with a game that involved a first person view bouncing zen like game. The idea was to bounce on various colored, constantly moving tiles. Each bounce would take you up to the altitude of another level, and you could use the arrow keys to slew your "being" left or right, hopefully to bounce off a moving tile on this new, higher level of "nirvana". There was also some peaceful new age music that played in the background.
Anybody know a) it's name and b) if it was ever ported to any other platforms? Same question about the SGI flight simulator which utilized rasterized graphics for amazingly quick refresh rates and polygon counts.

Elementary school in the 1970's, one of those traveling book fairs came through and I bought a cheap book called "Gone Bananas" which was a cheaply printed paperback with newsprint paper that had single-frame comics inside.
I remember a few of them. A woman orders a pizza and the guy asks if she wants it cut into 4 pieces or 8, and she answers "better make it 4. I don't think I could eat 8"
Another one is a guy just standing in front of an escalator staring at it. Someone asks him, "what are you doing?" and he answers, "nothing, I'm just waiting for my bubble gum to come back."
The jokes were really bad, but hey, it was elementary school humor - and the seventies!

in the 80's, I sold my Commodore 64 and a couple boxes of diskettes to some guy across town in Houston, TX. A few months later, I realized that in those boxes of disks were my original source disks for a BBS program I wrote from scratch. I spent hundreds of hours on that thing. It was as close to flawless as a Commodore Basic program could be.
When I realized it was gone, I had no way to find the guy. Yup. That stuff is gone forever, for sure.

It had the band playing in a hotel with people all around, though they were mostly in the lobby/pool area which were right by each other. That and the chorus didn't really fit. I think that maybe California was mentioned (really narrows it down right)?

Late to the party, but there's a chance someone knows what I'm talking about.
A girl named Meagan Day produced music under the name "Wisdom Tooth". Her latest album is still on Bandcamp (Somnambulist), but everything from "Cathedral Park" and before seems to be gone from the internet. I've gone quite deep into the internet, contacted some Dutch guy that she was recording with through twitter & I'm pretty sure I found her on Facebook based on some key details (her face isn't very visible on the pictures from her music days) but she didn't respond to my message.
It's so sad when good music disappears, that shouldn't happen these days. I'm sure the songs are scattered around on various peoples' computers, they're just not posted online in one place.

A movie. It was a cartoon, somewhat about a dragon. My memory is super fuzzy, all I can really remember is one part, and even that is not clear. I'm pretty sure it was a dragon egg in a castle, probably with people in the castle too. I think the people were trying to keep the egg from the parent dragons. I think they climbed up either a cliff or the side of a castle. The egg was hatching I think.
The main thing I remember was the mood. During that part it was really dark. Like, the movie (or show, it honestly could have been that) was animated in really dark colors, there was a lot of shadow, the dragons were mostly dark, like you could only really see detail on the eyes and nostrils. It may have been raining. I just remember it was really somber, kind of like the Night on Bald Mountain part of Fantasia, without the music.
I know, really not much I remember. But that image keeps coming to me, usually when I'm trying to go to sleep. I thought I almost had it once, but never got the whole thing.

This book I read as a kid. It was about a boy who was born with some kind of leg problem and he had to use those metal crutches with the elbow things. .. and I think he had a brace on one leg, too. It was about him and this friendship he developed with a very poor girl. I remember that she was living in a place where their furniture was milk crates. It ended with her and her family getting some sort of apartment with yellow walls. And going on that limited info, I have been not been able to find out what this book was called. I don't even remember if I liked the book. I just wanted to know what the title was! It may or may not have been British, and might have also featured a homeless man. I know that the dad in the story blamed he and his wife for the boy's disability. Something about marrying too soon?? And there was cop with a box of snuff. What the heck was this? What a weird sounding book! I need to know what the title is!

Bit late to this, but here goes
Not as recently as anymore, but when I was younger, probably like 8th grade, I stumbled upon this video, in the days of not totally knowing what porn was and just googling "sexy girls," and things like that
http://youtu.be/BuaQMbJH6-M
Since then I was trying to find some sort of part two, moreso anything of the blonde, but have been totally unsuccessful.

I know this probably isn't very lifechanging compared to some other comments, but there was a rap song my brother used to listen to sometimes, about a kid painting graffiti in a train yard and getting caught by a trainyard guard who he runs from and ends up hiding in a dumpster. Eventually the guard finds him and tells him something like, "here, you dropped this." and gives him the bag of paintcans he had left behind. I don't know if it was even that good of a song but I asked my brother about it and he can't remember what it's called and I don't have the CD that it was on. I also have no idea if it was a large or small artist who made the song.

Also some movie about a teddy bear who wakes up in a department store and does shit, i dont remember that shit he did but i remember he took a button off something and sewed it on his eye.

Black large boy crew socks, with grey thick bottoms that go from over the toe to up to the ankle.
My mom bought them on accident for my dad (getting boys socks instead of men's), but had them a while and couldn't remember the brand or where she got them. I'm female, but she knew I liked large boys socks because they are cheap and fit perfect, and I'm more utilitarian as opposed to fashionable.
I've had them years and they're finally wearing thin, they're great around the house socks, especially with hard wood floors in the winter. I tried to find them before even asking my mom, cause I knew she wouldn't remember. And years later with occasional searching, and now really looking as they're wearing out and getting holes, still no joy. Looking in stores (very occasionally, as I rarely shop aside from groceries), and I figure my luck with stuff they probably aren't even made anymore.

A music video from a rock band, from the late nineties or so. I believe the band was called Treble Clef, or something like that. The video was the band on stage, and other musicians would pop up on stage rocking out and dancing with them, like Avril Lavigne. However, it's been so many years, I'm not even sure if what little I remember is correct.

A guy who isn't either emotionally crippled and has mega mental/psychological issues and/or is a POS... or is a great guy but is gay. Nothing against gay guys. I've had many great friends who are, including 2 that have been my best friends at times. But for real... as a woman interested in men, it is infuriatingly complicated to find a decent guy without 10 million issues who isn't a liar/cheater/player/abusive/emotionally damaged/defective in some way, who is straight. It's like finding a unicorn. I'm looking for a mythical creature. If anyone finds one.. send him my way. sigh.

There was a series of commercials where it was from a man's POV and he's going on and on about how he's a great giver and awesome at giving gifts and they all ended with him getting hit in the crouch and exclaiming "oooh right in the little giver!" The one I tender best is him on a good cart and someone his him with a golf ball.
I have never been able to find the commercials and only my family remembers them. I want to say it was for a brand of wine? Not very effective conceals if I can't remember the brand.

Or something like that then the beat drops and the song gets even buzzier and sawier. Have been looking with no luck. :(

A few years ago I was watching HBO or Cinemax, and this really odd cartoon came on and it seemed to be about a shoddily drawn cowboy in this really sexual world? Like the one things I really remember about it was that there were these tree things, but they were the legs of a woman, essentially moving up and down on the trunk of the tree making these sexual sucking, glorping sounds. It was the weirdest fucking thing I have ever seen, and I would love to watch it again and share this oddity with my friends.

Anyway, one early morning everyone had to stop the little girl from continuously scratching herself. She had her arms crossed and was scratching her arms up and down for hours and I think they were all bloody. That's all I remember.

I was watching some documentary on Satellite. It was about this mysterious creature that was killing people in the jungle. They never say what it was at least as far as I watched it. I think it was a Lion or Anaconda or something... But anyway my Satellite died and I missed the last 10-15 minutes where I assume they finally said what the hell it was. I could've swore it was titled Man Eater or something similar. I'm pretty sure it was on Discovery or National Geographic channel. I could never find it.. I even emailed them and they never responded back. If anyone has any idea of this program let me know. Btw this was probably 10 years ago. Btw it's NOT Man Eater: KILLER TIGER ATTACKS IN INDIA - the documentary I'm looking for doesn't even say what the creature is. They make it a mystery.

As an adult, I constantly get the song stuck in my head, but I don't remember all of the lyrics and it's slowly driving me crazy.

I've been looking for a book I read in middle school. The story was about a boy's life between his preteen years to late high school I believe. In this story, he befriended a girl and they always hung out on a lookout of their city. The lookout had a big tree they hid behind. They were each other's firsts for everything. Then near the end of the book the girl admits not loving him anymore and moves on. The cover was a picture of a teenaged boy on a street with a lamp post.
Any idea?

A specific pair of Adidas sneakers that I bought on a whim because they were on sale for cheap but they became my favorite pair of sneakers. Looked cool and were incredibly light and comfortable. By the time I realized I should be looking for another pair I had worn off any naming, labels, etc. to identify them. They were black, red, and yellow and kind of looked like a track shoe because they were very slim and had "spikes" on the bottom made of rubber. The spikes came up on the side towards the front a bit. I'm not good at describing things.

Also, I turned on the TV in a hotel once and it was playing a movie/TV show where a man was just sprinting (fully clothed, not porno) and repeatedly shouted "fucker, fucker, fucker" etc. Been trying to know what that was for 5+ years.

Anything that'd be a half arsed equivalent, to the taste of Pepsi Blue(discontinued in the US after the early 2000s, but allegedly still is sold in Mexico if I believe a report another Redditor said in another thread). Have tried looking for a lot of things to replicate the taste of Pepsi Blue(i.e. slushies at gas stations/7-11), but I've never found anything that quite totally satisfies that Pepsi Blue taste I loved.
And honestly, ways to better my luck with applying for jobs. I do all the normal ish when applying(i.e. dress my best, act polite to people who work in that company, even do at least occasional eye contact in interviews with hiring managers/supervisors, despite that I'm an introvert who in reality isn't very comfortable with eye contact), and it seems whatever I try to impress the person interviewing me for those jobs, it never works. :( They'd probably behind the scenes rather hire those with some sort of inside connection(i.e. family/friend of someone) to the person in charge of hiring, and it's sad. LOL, my curse on applying for jobs must be almost as bad(though not quite as bad, I've had a few rare successes like applying for the 2010 Census), as the Billy Goat curse with the Chicago Cubs!
Speaking of that, are there other decent applying for jobs tip subs on Reddit besides /r/jobs , and I guess one could also ask on /r/advice ?

Gonna repost this from a earlier thread
A TV series or a movie, where the only plot i remember was that they opened a room and there was a naked man with lots of red writings on him, in blood or red paint. They also found a dead person in a house during a summer day if i remember correctly. I saw it around 10 years ago, my parents had it on a VHS.
A picture from a swedish book about monsters around 7 years ago i think. It was a man sitting in a small wooden boat while fishing, and behind him there was this HUGE sea monster rising up from the water, i believe it looked either like a brown Serpent with a dragon-ish head, or like a gigantic seahorse, im unsure.

YEARS ago, christ, must be 5-10 years now there was this flash video of an oddly shaped creature, it was just a floating head with hands that were in no way attached, just floated with him, and had fucked up (mismatched sized) eyes and crooked teeth, that would chase this pink bunny and if memory serves me right, things got kinda industrial throughout the flash with gears and such, buildings and all. Anyway, this floating head guy with floating hands would go crazy, chasing the bunny with a hammer and such till ultimately he nuked the place, killing himself but not the bunny? I think? either way, near the end it showed the image of the skull of the creature that was trying to kill the bunny and one of the lyrics in the song that persisted through the flash was "Kill! THE FUCKING BUNNY!" Only veteran NG users may even know or have heard of this. but every so often it pops into my head and drives me nuts because I want to watch it again.

My bunny ...
I had a stuffed animal/plush when I was younger, and I loved it. It was a Bunny, it had a little puff of hair between it's ears that I cut of (I was a kid...) and when we got it, it was on easter so it was holding a carrot. I cut that off also.
He had the little bean things in it's feet but it's body was mostly plush and such.
I loved him so much. His name was Babushka. I lost him and I cried and cried all day... I've been looking for his type for over 4 years (since I lost him) and I haven't been able to find one online anywhere. I ask random people quite a lot, still on the search for him.
While I look for what type he was, I've just also been looking for a substitute. I think I have about 40 or so plush bunnies I've bought over the past few years while looking for one, none of them were perfect like him. Just where to buy him online or something, or who made him, anything, I need him back... Maybe one day my search will come to an end...

Shit, looks like I missed this one, but if anyone knows what I'm remembering, I'd appreciate some tips. I'm going to describe it as best I remember it, though some details might be a bit off. I'd appreciate any leads because this has driven me nuts for years, and I've never been able to find out the name.
There was this old video game for Windows that took place in a jungle. It was a 2D game with old graphics; I probably last played it around 2005 or 2006 on an old friend's desktop computer. I want to say you played as a ninja. There were multiple platforms per level, each higher than the last, and you could climb ladders to get between them. (There may also have been vines to swing from platform to platform, but I'm not sure.) The enemies were little devils that you would have to defeat.
If any of this rings a bell for anyone, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks.

I've been looking for a toy duck like the one my grandmother got me when I was like 4. I still have the duck, but after 18 years (and a particularly sneaky puppy) it's pretty messed up. At one time it was a simple yellow duck with a green bow that played a common lullaby /melody. I'd love to find the company to buy one for my daughter since it got me through a lot.

A song my sister and I had on cassette tape when we were about 6&7 with the lyrics "I had a dream, I followed a rainbow over the clouds and under the sea" No idea who it's by. Googled lyrics but to no avail. :(
I also lost the only tape we have of us speaking as kids. It has my grandma's voice on it too (she's dead now). I think it may have gone to the charity shop by mistake. I'm devastated about it and my family don't know I lost it. It mostly has me singing lots of songs I learned at nursary and then I repeatedly ask my grandma if she will "record me now" which I thought meant 'play the tape back'. I know the memories I have a what's precious but what I wouldn't give to hear my darling grandmas voice once more. :|

They were little plastic animals (fits in your hand).
They were heat sensitive so if you rubbed them on the freezer door etc. their paws would turn red (like blood) & when you warmed them up it again the red disappeared.
They were marketed for kids who wanted to be vets when they grow up/help animals. I have tried every combination of words on google and can't find them. ANYONE remember the name of the toy/where to find-even a picture/are they still made? Might have come free with a magazine or something?

My very first online friend. I cared dearly for her and all I would like to know is wether she's still out there, still alive or wether my online search was in vain all these years.
Me and her, we had a rather small fight but I took it personal and cut ties for a while. When I wanted to get in touch again, there was no way to contact her. Neither through ICQ nor via phone and I lost my old cellphone with her number. I still remember her ICQ number though, the city she lived in 7 years ago and partially her full name. Several attempts at contacting friends we shared went unfruitful and I honestly doubt that she's still alive - she was kind of unstable mentally.

Looking for the recipe to a "Wine and Spice" marinade from Freedom Meat Locker in Freedom, Ca.
They won't give it out, they won't sell it. They used to sell the marinade but can't now due to state law. I have tried copying it, but I'm always off.
I would buy their marinated flank steak and tri tip, but I live in Texas now...and it's extremely to ship.
I've found links and forums from people looking for it, even found some links that looked like it was the recipe, but they were 404'd. I even tried looking at those links thru wayback machine and nothing.
help.

there was this old dragon ball z rpg pc game, probably an early ROM hack or something. Leveling random encounters etc. Started as gohan with android 18 in the hyperbolic time changer then you leave and its like snake way and you run into Vegeta next. It was odd
My mom downloaded it off Kazaa or Bearshare. Risky click apprently in those days. It wasn't a virus apparently.

There's this movie I watched as a child that revolved on something disgusting coming out of faucets and showers that looked like pasta which would then enter a person's body. And I remember the last scene being they got out of that place via helicopter where almost everyone was brain-dead only to realize that the baby they were carrying had been infected. I think they had to throw him/her out.

This spoken word song / artist, found it on MySpace years ago and it has since been lost to time.
Iirc the song is about a guy who sees a 'for a good time call' and he talks about getting change and then using the store's phone booth to call and I think the girl answers and maybe someone calls back saying they're the husband...it gets fuzzy on the particulars. I've tried googling for years to no avail. I think the story or artist are in Texas....

An album of jazz music that I never had the name for. I thought it was so beautiful. I can hear the chord progression of the lead piano in my head, but it doesn't translate well to humming and even if it did I can't imagine anyone would know what it is. It seems strange to feel a sense of loss over music!

A comic, I made a post about it at TOMT but no luck: I think the comic starts with the rich folk replacing body parts with robotic enhancements, and slowly the middle class and poor people do the same. then they turn themselves off, so they would wake up in a better future. but it turns out everyone has the same idea so they all wake up to a barren earth because everyone was deactivated for so long.

I once saw this stand-up comedy of this (British; shaved-head?) guy comparing the tickly, satisfactory feeling of a Q-Tip in the ear to a blowjob, and described how he was once receiving a blowjob when he found some Q-Tips next to him and proceeded to twist it in his ear while moaning, then pretending to hold the girl's head moaning, to then note that she was frustrated, hyperbolizing her frustration by putting the mic in his mouth and making a feral, aggressive stance, hissing like some sort of reptile.

There were these ads in Australia around 10 year ago. 2 kids were sitting on top of a hill eating a snack when one of the kids asks "What's with the twist?"
However, every one of the ads had something different. A voice would always be heard shouting "Never mention the twist!" and something bad would happen to the kid who had asked the question e.g gets kicked by a walking shrub. The commercials were hilarious when I used to watch them on TV with my siblings, but I've never seen the ads since then.

I can't remember the name or band but I know that the first line of the chorus is "your favorite song is on the radio, and.." and its pretty upbeat. it must have been done by some small band because it was on MySpace but not Youtube at the time..

It's a music video of a boy band singing with a blue background behind them. Blue, as in there's probably a pool behind them reflecting the sky or something. It's probably night time in the video.

I once knew a lady called Liz, who I went to uni with, and who I lived with for a year after uni. I tried to stay in touch with her, but she was the sort of person who would lose her mobile phone every couple of months and just get a new number, or forget her email password so just make a new email address. As such, I lost touch with her. I have successfully tracked down so many people from my past using information from their digital footprint, but I have never been able to track her down because her digital trail goes blank in around 2009. I have no compelling or urgent reason to find her again. I just want to say hello and see how she is getting on in life, cos she was a good friend.

It was about two kids and a parrot, who went to a different universe or something where there was a land that had four different sunsets (so you could pick which one you wanted to see) and that had fields of roots that, when dried, had a recipe for all kinds of different food and if you followed them that food would come out of it. Never found it again.

Detailed pages of flags. One image especially struck me, of a Chinese man blowing himself up with a little etched speech-bubble (banner, in this case) that says, "since I cannot conquer these wickede pyrates, I shall blow myself up!" I have literally searched for years.

A book series I read in my pre-teen years. I can't remember the author, title, or anything helpful. Just that the covers all had an area on them that was a shiny silver and I spent a long time going from library to library in the area trying to finish the series (which I don't think I ever did).

That one game from my childhood. It's from around '99 I think maybe early 2000ish. It was a point and click adventure and the main character was a cartoonist. It was a strange shuffle between 2d comicy animated style and real life filmed sequences. The main character switched between world's, the real life and his own comics, I think. I think you started in a castle where you get a backpack with unlimited space. I don't remember more.

The source of this image I used as a portrait for Baldur's Gate back in the day. I had a friend that said it was from a book and he told me the name, but we have both forgotten it since. The site that hosts it doesn't provide sources so I have no clues from there either, which is a shame because they have a lot of good portraits there. I would love to read the book and get a higher res version of the picture so I can use it in BG:EE, not to mention the fact that the original sources should be cited regardless.

There was a toy helmet I had as a kid. It was mostly green, with yellow accents, large grey tubes that connected to the sides and red bubble lenses. It looked very insect-like. I had it in the mid-1980s and have never seen another one.
EDIT: Holy shit, I found a picture.

There was this one game I played in my early teens, maybe 2005-2006ish where you played an alien in a suit with a jetpack. You had a little blaster gun. You could jump around really high with the jetpack and explore the world, occasionally shooting guys. It wasn't very linear. I got to a point where you rescued more aliens and began building little buildings, but didn't get further than that. I loved the hell out of that game and haven't ever been able to remember the title.
EDIT: One Month later I have learned that this was Giants: Citizen Kabuto

A old pc game i played on the school pc around 2000-2002.
It was a platformer where you were a small dino. You could chance the color/dino to a different one and it had other agilities, there was a red, yellow and green i think? I remember there was a level where you should surf in a dessert.
Anyone know of this game? I need it for my ultimate nostalgia trip...

Ugh, well, there was this music video I saw ages ago that I simply can't find today. Anywhere. I've been looking and looking and it's driving me mad. I only remember bits and pieces, but it started with some guy in a mohawk in a black background licking a pane of glass :P Later on in the video there's some guy with colorful hair a colorful suit which kind of stereotypes and exaggerates disco fashion. The mohawk guy and the disco guy end up getting in some fight of the ages or something.

A Birthday Cake (from the mid 80s)
I grew up in a very small town with only one mom & pop grocery store. The nearest chain grocer was 45 miles away. Our little town didn't have a bakery, only one restaurant bar and three gas stations. Each year on our birthday, my mom would buy us a birthday cake from the frozen food section of our little grocery store. This was a tremendous treat because we were used to having box cake each Sunday at the church potluck.
Even though this cake was frozen, it was a remarkable treat! The cake was white with white frosting, double layered and approximately 8-9 inches round. The top was decorated with 5-6 edible sugar candy flowers that were yellow, blue, and pink. Also on the top was a white, plastic, decorative plate with the words "happy birthday" written in red cursive. There were also 3 plastic smiley faces --2 blue and 1 pink.
I can't remember how the cake tasted, but I've searched for it for years because sharing one with my kids would bring back some special childhood memories.

This is probably really late, but there was a computer game I used to play as a kid called "Jump!" on addictinggames.com.
It was the coolest 3d platformer about a vacuum cleaner trying to advance to the next level.
But one day I went to play it and it was gone. The link was there, but it redirected to a different game. I started looking on other websites to see if maybe addicting games just simply took it off but had no luck. I even found the website that originally made the game and sent them an email asking about it years later. They never responded.
I don't think I'll ever find this game. It was the best damn game I've ever played and I didn't even get to beat it. If anyone knows anything about "Jump!" any information would be much appreciated.

This one fucking TV show I watched a long time ago.
Seriously, I've been searching for it for so long and never seemed to come across it. It's some kind of horror/weird psychological show that really had me hooked, and the endings almost never satisfied me. The show's main thing was that there is this beautiful white vacation house that different people would rent or whatever every summer. However, every time people would stay in that house, weird [usually supernatural] things would start happening. For example: in one episode, some witch kept kidnapping people from the house and the next day, nobody except the main protagonist would remember that person.
Please somebody help me figure out what this show was called. PLEASE!
EDIT: If it helps, I watched the show in Arabic, but idk. I feel like a show like that should come in English, too.

This freakin' violin song. It's one classical song out of the millions out there. It sounded so pleasing to my ears. It was a bit like hearing those sad violin songs when a heroic person dies. It helped me fall asleep so many times, and it had "Rainbow" somewhere in the title and something similar to "JJ" as its artist. I hope one day I hear it somewhere.

The Yo Master.
when i was a little kid (in the 90s), my little brother and I had this VHS tape. In retrospect, I guess it was an instructional yo-yo videotape. But for us as kids, it was magic. The Yo Master could do all sorts of yo-yo tricks and he could do them IN SPACE! For some reason it was really formative for both of us, and I just know the internet would love it. But I haven't been able to find the video anywhere, nor any reference to the Yo Master at all.
Any ideas on how to dig this up?

This book from when I was a kid. It was an illustrated book of short stories and I can only remember one story from it.
There was this beach with a bunch of tall standing stones. Sometimes for whatever reason the stones would get out of their places and walk away and then come back.
Under the stones was a treasure that this greedy magician wanted. He waited until the stones started walking then jumped down in the holes and started to take the treasures. It was during a big storm and he couldn't get out of the hole with the treasure fast enough and the stones came back and they crushed him while he was still in the hole with the treasure.
I would kill to know the name of the book, or ever of that one story.

There was a short film I saw once, back when the internet was new. A guy's friend sends him a link at work, and when he opens it, it's horse porn, right as his boss is walking by. He gets fired for being a horse cock fanatic, goes home, hurts his dog accidentally. Tries to give it cpr, right as his gf walks in and she think's he's molesting the dog. She throws him out, so he goes to his parents. Despondant about his shitty luck, he decides to hang himself in the basement. As he's doing so, his parents walk in and interrupt what appears to them to be a the ol' choke n stroke instead of a suicide attempt. They are DISAPPOINT.
I don't know how to google that safely, however.

An artistic collaborator. Someone prolific with traditional commercial and industrial design illustration skills who can keep up with me intellectually, sharing my futurist interests. I long had dreams of creating the Man Will Conquer Space Soon! for the 21st century, maybe developing a video and a traveling walk-through exhibit, but it's just not possible. The artists for such a thing just don't exist anymore. They don't have the interest or the science-literacy. I've largely given up, banking any possibility for this on the advent of future AI based image generation technology.

A picture of a Platinum blonde girl with these incredible blue eyes, mouth open in shock, and a smattering of cum on her chin and cheek. Probably the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. I saw it on some porn site in the early 2000's and was never able to find it again. Teenage me forgot to right click and save. I'm 31 now and still try some porn-fu every now and then but have never been able to find her. She is to me what Moby Dick was to Ahab. I hope and dream to see her again someday but with the limited keywords available I'm afraid it will never happen...

The year was 1968. We were on recon in a steaming Mekong delta. An overheated private removed his flack jacket, revealing a T-shirt with an ironed-on sporting the MAD slogan "Up with Mini-skirts!". Well, we all had a good laugh, even though I didn't quite understand it. But our momentary lapse of concentration allowed "Charlie" to get the drop on us. I spent the next three years in a POW camp, forced to subsist on a thin stew made of fish, vegetables, prawns, coconut milk, and four kinds of rice. I came close to madness trying to find it here in the States, but they just can't get the spices right!

I want an office phone (or any phone) that has a keypad in the order of a 10-key, like on a computer or a calculator. Years ago, I did a lot of cold calling and 10-key data entry, and having them opposite each other was the bane of my existence. I no longer am in that boat (still do data entry, not so much cold calling) but it's still my white whale.

Okay, this'll probably get buried, but whatever, worth a try.
It was an anthology of comics. It was a large book, very thick, like think a good 600-1000 pages thick and maybe the size of your standard comic book. It was put together and sold for charity, though I can't recall which one (this would have been back in the early 90's, possibly even the late 80's since I got it second hand, I recall seeing images of kids in Africa, so think one of those charities, I bought it in the UK). It had a tonne of comics in it, a batman, a superman, an Archie, a Tintin, loads, all from different publishers.
Would love to know if anyone knows the book I'm talking about.

There is a short story about a boy who is abducted by an automated alien vessel. He goes on to explore a bunch of alien worlds that are empty. there is a robot that transforms into a companion to keep him company. It was a short story in a collection that I read randomly in the school library in college. It was an old book but I don't remember if it was an anthology of a specific writer or a collection based around a central idea. I thought the author was Heinlein but I have had no success finding the story either as if it was written by him or just on its own.

The Starman Tin Badge mentioned in this post. I was a HUGE Starman fan when DC released all this merchandise, and I got the watch, the pin, and the action figure, but I was never able to find the badge ANYWHERE. This link, which was four years old when I first came across it and is now from almost seven years ago, is the closest I've ever come to even seeing one.
And while we're on the subject, I lost my Starman cloisonne pin years ago. I haven't been able to find one of those, either.

The first porn movie I've ever saw.
It was on television though; I was flipping through the cartoon channels (I was 7 at the time so I only go through cartoon channels) when suddenly in the channel where Disney was supposed to be, it were a white couple fucking in a public bathroom instead. I was confused at first, but I was suddenly aroused. Maybe it's just me wanting to feel like a child again, or just me chasing the feeling of nostalgia.

I can't find this 90's music video I saw where the band was performing in an apartment and using a phone as the microphone. It was hanging from the ceiling and they kept hitting it so it was spinning around. Idk it was pretty rad when I was a kid but yeah, can't remember who performed that song or what the song was called.
Also can't find the name of this book I read in junior high about a young man who's in the military during World War II I think? Becomes a spy alongside this real hot lady spy. I think it was young adult fiction, possibly based on a true story. It was very well written but definitely can't remember what the actual plot was.

I saw this floating around a few years ago, but looked like it was much older. I think it was a newspaper advertisement for art supplies, maybe Windsor & Newton (but I'm not sure on the brand)? The advertisement had an older man who looked like Doc from Back to the Future (but in a suit or something) sitting/lying on the ground with his head in his hand, and detailed how art is bad for your health - things like "Wasted muscles from standing at gallery openings", "Oily skin from too many canapes", ".... drinking wine", etc. I believe it finished with "So do art!" or something like that.
I remember really loving this picture and thought it was funny, but lost the link and have searched everywhere but haven't been able to find it.

I read a novel when I was a teenager that I always wanted to find again, not sure why but I do.
It was the story about a girl who moved to California to become a fashion designer and she was really struggling, but then she decided to take two pair of differently-colored tights/pantyhose and sew one leg of each together to make a pair with one leg one color and the other leg another color.
I remember a scene where she's in a public restroom and someone reaches in over the door of the stall and swipes her purse.
And then another scene where she's a paparazzi to make money and shouts "down in front, dickhead!" to another paparazzi.
It's so weird, the things I remember about this book, that I've always wanted to re-read it. I think the name of the book might have been her name which was something weird like "Jazzy" or "Goldie" or something like that.
Feh.

I'm kinda late but there was an animation video that I saw several years back. It was like a video version of Evoland where the character was a green guy and he transformed from a dot to 8-bit and continued until he became a full 3D rendered character. He would transform every time he collected a star. And I'm pretty sure I saw it on vimeo.

I've posted several times on /r/tipofmytongue and nobody has really answered.
It's a website from about 2007 and I think it was called scary.com. There was a point and click sorta deal where you could explore a haunted house, creepy forest, zombie marsh, etc. There was a bedroom with a recording of an evil clown that used to scare the hell out of me. If you "walked" into the wood during the "day" there was a guy caught in a bear trap that asked you to free him. If you didn't, next time you came back, it would be night time, and he'd be a werewolf.
The website doesn't seem to exist anymore. It's not a dream because my cousin remembered it. I really want to find it again. It was so cool, and actually was the thing that got me into Web Development. I learned that there was more to websites than text boxes and simple flash games.

A book.
It's a tale of high fantasy, with a prince sent on a quest to find a dragon because something is wrong with magic, and then a big war happening.
It's not 'Eyes of the dragon' by King.
I remember a passage where the prince is ambushed by goblins while relieving himself. Later on those same goblins join the princes army and cover their weapons with dung so they cause infected wounds.
I remember a group of Dwarves that are lost because they can't agree on what way west is.
I remember the dragon being in a magical slumber, and something going horribly wrong when he teleports everyone back to the princes castle, with them arriving months later.
I remember the prince beating his older brother in a duel, which leads to him being brutally beaten by the swordmaster of the castle, because he should have let the future king win and look good.
At the end of the book, the prince has lost an eye and decides to fight with an axe instead of a sword from then on.
I really wanna know the title and author of the book, but any description I can come up with is so generic that I get tons and tons of search results.

The Girls. When I was 11 my alien sister and several young ladies came to live in my head and talk to me. We became friends. They were always with me - talking to me. When I was 14 my sister took all the other girls away. She put them somewhere I can't find. She has yet to bring them back. When she does speak to me, she refuses to speak of the Girls.

So about ten years ago i was in a math class at college with this really cute girl. she came in late the first day, and took the seat next to me (since it was the only one left). over the next ten weeks or so we talked casually, hung out after class, talked about this and that. turned out we were both dating people, so we just remained friends. near the end of the semester, this guy in our class comes up and whispers something in her ear. she explained (after he left) that he had hit her car in the parking lot on the way in that day. so we walked to the parking lot after class, said our goodbyes and that was that.
she didn't show up to the next class. or the next one. or the next one. i started fearing the worse. mind you, this was before facebook was popular, so nobody had an account. myspace was around, but i couldn't find her. i googled her name, asked around, everything i could think of. i even questioned the teacher who gave me this kind of strange, "i don't know who you're talking about" kinda thing. it was eerie.
anyway, every once in a while i'm reminded of her and i google her name to see if she's around. i saw this post and decided to try again. as luck would have it, something came up: an obituary for her boyfriend, from last year, stating they had a daughter together. ah, man. that made me feel bad. i did a little more digging and finally found her on facebook. i just sent her a message to see if she remembers me. let's see if she thinks i'm just a creep or not. wish me luck.
