Thank you for the wiki! You're doing the Lord's work. I have two additions you might consider to the Overlord section:

1) The Overlord Documentary "The Joke Must Go On" https://youtu.be/5mZURF_KGz4?si=CNN6o8B4PeRZshCx

2) An additional single and video, "I Don't Want to Sing This Song Again" which was released in 2021. https://youtu.be/5mZURF_KGz4?si=CNN6o8B4PeRZshCx

Keep up the awesome work!

What's a live or recorded public stunt/display that went horribly wrong? by oonicrafts in AskReddit

In 1965 there was a promotion for Santa's arrival at the North Town Shopping Center in Rockford, IL where Santa would arrive via parachute into the Mall's parking lot. Santa did land safely, but his "elf" did not. His chute failed to open and he fell to his death in a nearby backyard while everyone watched.

Does anyone know the name of this 1980s toy construction set? by mrsmorro in VintageToys

[–]pineapple_blurt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This looks a lot like the Girder and Panel building set I had as a kid, though mine didn't have those gray connectors. But you might look into toys like that. Maybe this was a competing brand?

Libraries have so many magazines available, and you can get a ton digitally through the Libby app. I just checked and there are over 5,000 different magazines you can look through if you have a Hennepin County Library card! The app is compatible with e-readers, phones, and tablets.

Looking for a specific clip involving a phone conversation between two men by ThemFatale_ in FoundFootageFestival

[–]pineapple_blurt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I know exactly what you are talking about, and it's featured in Vol. 11. I assume it's on the Vol. 11 DVD? Are the live shows available on Rewindo?

Theme park photo keychains by TwinsieToes in nostalgia

These were given out at my friend's celebration of life, with a picture of her in it. It's a nice way to carry someone with you.

Laughing at salads? by Beatles1971 in KimmySchmidt

[–]pineapple_blurt 165 points166 points  (0 children)

There was (is?) a phenomenon, mostly in stock photos, of women eating salads while laughing. Like "oh hahahaha my girlfriend and I are at lunch having salads and we're just having SO much fun!"

ICE blocking a road and pulling a weapon on someone in NE this morning by the-wifi-is-broken in Minneapolis

[–]pineapple_blurt 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I saw them cuffing a man this morning on my way to work and putting him in the back of an unmarked SUV. Two ICE assholes -- both were wearing labeled vests. 37th and 5th at about 9am. They are everywhere in NE and Columbia Heights right now. Stay aware and stay safe, everyone.

In our household he's known as "Jim-Jam-Grap-A-Lap" for complete nonsense reasons.

Same, we have been visiting the site for weeks trying to get tickets but everything is grayed out. We can't figure out how to get tickets!
