Ask Lemmy

There used to be a website with a rubber man floating on the screen. You could move him around with the mouse and make him stretch out in psychedelic colors. Hours spent doodling.

When I was a kid, I remember seeing a trailer on TV for a Captain America movie. The tone of the trailer was dark and gritty, it looked like it was a drama and you don't find out it's even a Captain America movie until they reveal him at the very end.

A board game called Off the Rails. You play as goblins in a mine, and use mine carts to collect gems. It was on kickstarter maybe 5 years ago.

Denver the Last Dinosaur!

I've never met anyone who knows what this is, even if I sing what I remember from the theme song.

My husband is slightly older than me and he had no idea wtf I was describing. It was a late 80s/early 90s cartoon with a green long necked Dinosaur with sunglasses that performed in a band.

I had to YouTube the theme song to make him believe it was real.

Stars! is a turn based galactic trade/strategy game my friends and I used to play via email in high school.

Necroville (2007) A hilarious B monster movie. Think Clerks meets Ghostbusters.

Immercenary for 3DO. Such a strange game.

Eternal lands.

Tank Girl! It's a movie I have loved for so long. Makes me cry with laughter. Got my wife and son to watch it and was promptly banned from picking movies for family viewing for like 4 months. That did not take away my love for the film.

Maybe someone here will help me find a song that I listened to with a friend (and danced a lot) during a summer in the late 90s.

It was an electronic dance song which featured a a very raspy male voice singing in Spanish and would ocasionally make the "pull snot from the throat and spit" sound.

My friend and I have been for years trying to find it to no avail... :(

There was a game from my childhood for the Dreamcast called E.G.G. (Elemental Gimmick Gear). I've never heard anyone else talk about it, but I remember it being super cool

I don't remember how we had it but when I was growing up, we had a pc game called Adventures with Chickens. I might have to track down a copy and play it again because I'm confused as to why MobyGames says the game has "shoot 'em up elements" when I'm pretty sure it doesn't.

Slashers (2001) is a fairly unknown horror / comedy from the heyday of video stores. I rented it on a marathon weekend with my old movie crew and it instantly became a favorite. The "Slashers, super-fun!!" theme song is likely problematic at this point but I still find myself and the few remaining folks from that crew saying it at random when we get together.

Outside of that group though, I've never met another human that's seen it. Albeit I'm not usually proselytizing about it like a weirdo... usually. Maybe at next year's horror-con I'll start.

I remember playing a game with my friend as a kid. I think it was around windows 95. You were a Mafioso and you could pick one of three businesses, one was a blow up doll factory. You had to plan heists by buying escape vehicles, such as tandem bikes, cars anong other things. I found it funny that only 2 people could escape in a transporter, because it had only 2 seats. The main goal i think was to steal from the comically large vault of the main mafia boss via submarine. My memory is very hazy, don't remember the name or anything else, but it was super fun.
