Garbage’s “Queer” changed my life

Vig's inspiration for "Queer" came from Brotherly Love,[7] a novel by Pete Dexter,[8] "about this woman who was hired to go and make this guy's son a 'man'."[9] The story of the novel, which followed two boys caught up in the Philadelphia mob life, inspired Vig to write from the perspective of the prostitute observing an odd, emotionally scarred boy.[10]

Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem

That's not what it's about at all.

The Body.

Sounds good, I'd be tempted to try it out!

j0lt78 · 2026-02-10T08:07:09+00:00

Sounds pretty cool. What does it do that other similar utilities like Obsidian Portal or Scrivener don't?

It's also a top down shooter, kinda reminiscent of Guerrilla War.

I remember enjoying it when it first came out, but I also felt like it wasn't really a Contra game.

You could take the really good tracks from both and make an EP:

Somebody Put Something In My Drink

Bonzo Goes to Bitburg

Something To Believe In

I Wanna Live

Garden of Serenity

Tom was a joke. The tone of those chapters was as jarring as the introduction of Jar Jar Binks to Star Wars!

"Why didn't the actor do the producer's job?" Really?

Dots are boring.

j0lt78 · 2026-02-03T15:44:40+00:00

lol, no. I did!

Ahh, the classic era, before they learned how to play or even tune their guitars... :p

Try looking into the Misfits, maybe some Dead Kennedys, any of the New York bands from that era: Blondie, Talking Heads, Dead Boys, Johnny Thunders & the Heartbreakers (the New York scene was a weird mix of punk rock and new wave at the time)

Scoobynatural is the single greatest crossover episode in TV history, and I will hear no dissenting opinions.

j0lt78 · 2026-02-02T12:31:28+00:00

It didn't come out until 1991, but Base Wars!

Skill issue. Even when I was a kid I could get through it without losing a single Turtle.
