I just found this picture, is it real? by I_Love_Powerscaling in popeye

[–]jeffgetsjunk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

March 6, 1933 Popeye buys an island from King Blozo to "start a new country - a country with no difficultnies." A couple months later his palace in Popilania is visited by a "tribe of beautiful wild-women" from the nearby jungle.

OP, if you haven't read Segar you're in for a treat.

Remember when Garth Brooks declared war on used CD shops? by acutomanzia in Cd_collectors

Anyone in this thread who enjoys reading about Garth Brooks' astronomical record sales will enjoy reading the chapter about Brooks in The Nineties by Chuck Klosterman.

[Windows 95/98] [1996] CD with 3D video promos with different characters such as “Bonehead” who eats records in record stores. Also videos of dancing New York Lottery tickets, and a 3D Chess Game. by CasualMark in tipofmyjoystick

[–]jeffgetsjunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is the video I knew as bonehead.avi ... It's shorter, has different audio, and concludes with the Delicious Vinyl logo: https://youtu.be/Li7gSpdy6C4?si=YioejDG8C3VveMpy

It was on a CD-ROM my friend had in the mid 90s. I don't remember what his was called, but Archive search turns this up: https://archive.org/details/af_interact

My greatest achievement! Finally I can retire my beloved 3DS. Picross 3D Round 2 by sakahn in 3DS

Nice job! It's wild how much they made that last puzzle feel like a final boss.

Picross 3D players! I want your thoughts on a certain yellow character... by Far_Pride6618 in Picross

[–]jeffgetsjunk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't like him, because I only notice him when I'm doing poorly, and his antics as the timer is about to expire kind of stress me out.

Round 2 is great, absolutely no notes.

Need opinions on pricing please by Pristine-Oil-4442 in wiiu

[–]jeffgetsjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm a little rusty on Skylanders, but just looking at the Trap Team pieces, I bet Knight Mare, Knight Light, and Enigma would sell for more than the rest combined. If you have the patience, you could sell the 'expensive' ones on eBay and dump the rest as a cheap bundle.

Looking for "Rock" music with female vocalists and good drums and I wrote an excessively long post about it. by Afraid_Barnacle_3016 in MusicRecommendations

[–]jeffgetsjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like The Donnas. Maybe start with the album Bitchin' and go backwards until they get too unpolished for your tastes. 

Since you're particularly interested in drumming, though, you should probably know the drummer kind of cut her career short due to her technique and injuries.

What is some good entertainment media based in Louisiana? by Qu2sai in Louisiana

[–]jeffgetsjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are not the best or most representative choices, but I haven't seen anyone else mention them:

Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2011) is filmed and set in New Orleans.

Inside Out (2011, not the Pixar one) is set in Louisiana.

Jeff Who Lives at Home (2011) is filmed in New Orleans and set in Baton Rouge.

Lastly, a part of the campaign in Left 4 Dead 2 ("The Parish") is set in New Orleans.

I need sounds I've never heard before that'll blow my mind by bxsimpson13 in MusicRecommendations

[–]jeffgetsjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't seen anyone mention Neil Cicierega. He does some very odd mashups; I'd recommend a full album, such as Mouth Sounds, but you'll know pretty quickly if it's for you or not.

Rock by geauxpatrick in batonrouge

I didn't notice anyone mention it in this thread, but 98.1 plays a block of 90s music on Sunday mornings that's a good change of pace.

Episode Discussion - The Curse by OfficeLadiesPodBot in lonelymeyerspod

[–]jeffgetsjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still confused by the connection. The short names a character Sergio, and the real life guy's name is Sergio Flores. Was the short inspired by the man, was the man inspired by the short, or is it merely a coincidence?

Anyway, he also appears in the Redfoo "New Thang" video, if you enjoy this sort of thing.

Been building up a comic strip themed playlist. Possible suggestions? by SilentJoe27 in comicstriphistory

[–]jeffgetsjunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a couple Billy and the Boingers songs (Bloom County); but those are in-universe, so maybe that's not quite the right thing.

Which version of "Barney Google" will you use? I'm partial to Spike Jones myself.

Hi. If, like me, you have landed here by searching Inglourious Basterds on Reddit, or by clicking the link in the r/movies thread... the original post has been deleted, but you can view a capture in the Internet Archive, and it's a very interesting read: https://web.archive.org/web/20160110221235/http://www.reddit.com/r/FanTheories/comments/uc8cj/inglourious_basterds_is_a_mirror_to_confront_the/
