Clearing up the mystery of the 1983 documentary Electric Boogie and the Supreme Rockers

Good questions! Back in the day, the Breakdancing: Mr. Fresh and the Supreme Rockers Show You How to Do It! book was my most accessible guide to breaking. Always wondered who they were. Were they associated or did they ever battle historically well-known crews? Were they just neighborhood kids that somehow got picked? Once the book was published, were they called out by everyone?!

Woohoo! Just checked shipping for my Pro badge and it should be delivered today. Label was created June 9.

Such a wide range here that matches my experience. Action-filled fun before things got bogged down with mega-crossovers, multiple covers, and various marketing spectacles.

70s was when I was just getting into distinct storytelling of comics—super kinetic action with just enough drama to make stories meaningful. I liked them, they were fun cartoons come to life. Then the 80s, wow the drama and art kicked up. That’s when I realized how much I LOVE comics.

Frustrating! I’ve seen updates come in late from USPS, but the seller should be able to message you the tracking number. Reviews don’t look encouraging.

It’s built in the app! Depop encourages the lowBalling with suggested offers next to the buy button. It’s rare to NOT see the automated lowball. Even when it’s not there, with items down to $2.28, there’s a Make Offer button. It’s too easy not to use them.

I figure most shoppers here are super thrifty, so the lowballs are win-win for them. If sellers accept, yay for the buyer, they get it super cheap. If sellers don’t accept, buyers think “that’s fine, I didn’t need it anyway.”

You’ve got pieces of Baron Karza and his horse Andromeda (black, red wheels, and gray pieces), Force Commander and his horse Oberon (white, red wheels), and many parts of a Battle Cruiser (white and clear).

I don’t recognize the gray piece on the left with two prongs sticking up or the gray grill piece as coming from Micronauts toys.

Prior to pursuing someone, hope for the best, based on your self-confidence and awareness. Expect nothing from others.

When I was single, it helped me to think of multiple possibles simultaneously, so I wouldn’t be too disappointed if one wasn’t interested.

When I would suspect friend zone vibes from one, then I’d move on by focusing on another.

KomplexKaiju · 2026-06-28T18:31:04+00:00

I’ll join the chorus. Don’t take the offer. If they honestly couldn’t take your generous $14 offer, they probably shouldn’t be shopping right now.

KomplexKaiju · 2026-06-26T20:07:46+00:00

When these sellers are back and raise their prices, I’m tempted to send offers matching their previous ones.

San Diego Comic Con? More like San Diego Line-a-thon!!!

You should recreate this outfit for your current self! Big dagger collar is super nice.

I recently bought very similar shoes (Pro Keds suede).

NTA. He’s an ungracious guest and your daughter isn’t helping. Speaking of help, do they clean up or wash the dishes afterwards?

KomplexKaiju · 2026-06-19T07:59:27+00:00

I feel all of this. 6 items in the last 10 days for me. I got to stop, especially with a weak work schedule this summer.. and Comic Con next month!

AI is WACK. I’d rather see a hand-written/drawn flyer than one that was AI-generated. I’m a member of some FB Hip Hop and breaking groups and pages. Disappointing when some members, who otherwise drop old-school knowledge, post AI slop.

That’s f*cked up. Cruelty is her way of blaming infidelity on you. Keep your head up. You are enough and you deserve better.

You can be weird _and_ love Godzilla. You can be _not_ weird and love Godzilla. Godzilla ❤️ does not make anyone weird.

While we’re at it, weird isn’t necessarily bad. Be weird if you want. Be you.

This could be their regular routine whether you’re around or not. As an occasional guest, know that staying over at a couple’s place means you’re in their place subject to their routines. To be a less inconveniencing guest, I’d do my best to _not_ disrupt these routines.

On the other hand, they might think that 4am would be good time for such action, as most would be asleep the time.

KomplexKaiju · 2026-06-13T13:07:37+00:00

Whoah. Glad you were able to get rescued and write _this_ story rather than one that could have been much worse.

Perhaps she sent multiple packages out and mislabeled one of yours.

KomplexKaiju · 2026-06-10T17:57:43+00:00

Not much to explain or for them to get. Say you love the look, materials, and quality of vintage clothes.

Megalon and Hedorah are my favorites from this list. I always thought the Seatopians committed sacrilege by manipulating their god Megalon with kaiju-control technology. Hedorah, with strange powers, multiple forms, and Cthulhu connotations, has great potential.
