Video where YouTuber intentionally makes a very lazy “reaction” video to make a point about copyright.
In my head this was Ian Kung, but I can’t find it on his channel.
The creator was trying to make a point about how broken copyright enforcement is on YouTube by basically watching cool videos and “reacting” by saying the same thing after each one loosely tailored to the content. They were all based around the phrase “my wife” or something like that.
Like “wow, what a cute lazy dog. It’s almost as lazy as my wife,” “if you think that’s a big whale, you should meet my wife,” or something to that effect.

Youtube haiku where a guy is stuck in slow time after picking up a quarter
Im looking for a video that was posted to r/youtubehaiku years ago. In the ~15 second vid a guy walks along the street and finds a coin. He says something like "wow a coin" and then starts talking and moving in slow motion. Another man appears and says "Oh youre stuck in slow time? Its because George Washington cursed that coin, there is nothing you can do, you're fucked!" Meanwhile slowmo guy is still slowly talking and looking confused. The coin was either a dime, a quarter, or a silver dollar.

Short story about space zombies
I'm trying to find a sci-fi short story. Unfortunately, I do not remember anything about the author or title. It is at least a decade or two old, available for free online.
The entire story is set aboard a starship in deep space, and everyone has advanced technology (nanomachines?) that can repair tissue damage that would normally be deadly. Unfortunately, the ship is hit by a massive radiation burst, nearly killing everyone aboard, causing all kinds of damage, and contaminating much of what's left. Somehow, the worst affected have massive brain damage, and the nanomachines are driving them to instinctively seek raw materials for repairs--which can only be found in the brains of relatively intact survivors.
In short, the whole setup is basically an excuse to have space zombies. The nanomachines keep them alive even when their organs are falling out, but they're dumb and slow and they want braaaaains.
Other things I remember:
- The protagonist is female, and was protected by the initial burst because she was working inside a large water tank.
- The protagonist is trying to help her romantic partner, who is comatose, but it's implied they might wake up as a zombie.
- The protagonist is trying to avoid killing the zombies when possible, because there is still a chance of curing them.
- The protagonist is looking for raw materials that aren't radiation-contaminated, to help her partner and repair the ship.

[SOLVED] {TV series or movie unsure] two characters act out scene from Empire Strikes Back for young children
I think I saw this in a youtube video taken out of context so I'm not exactly sure when it was made, or if it was a TV show or a movie. And while it could obviously be from any time after 1980 because it references Empire Strikes Back it felt 21st century to me.
It seems to be a future post-apocalyptic setting, the power isn't on, everyone's dressed in rags, there's scavenging etc. and in a moment of down time two of the main characters act out the lightsaber duel from Empire Strikes Back to entertain the young children who live there, and the kids gasp at the "I am your father" bit.
What's this from?

Trying to find an old commercial
Probably around fifteen years ago, I saw a commercial set to - I think - the "Trololo" song (or, if not, a classical song). I think it was a commercial for M&Ms, but it was at least for a similar candy - lots of small bits in a candy shell. The candies were CGI and bouncing in time with the music in a sort of liquid fashion. I haven't been able to find this commercial since!
Sorry for the vagueness. It was a long time ago. Hopefully someone can give me some guidance - thanks in advance!

[SOLVED][Game] VR RPG
Game is Journey of the Gods, for anyone else looking!
I only remember the first big fight; you had a crossbow and sword, and were fighting a tentacle thing made of black ooze on a farm. The game overall was about becoming a god, with the gods being birds and you collecting feathers to ascend.
I originally played it on the Oculus Quest.

[movie] Help finding a war movie
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/15234200

Does anyone here recognize it? > > Modern (~1990s) soldiers (the heroes) are pinned down. They rig explosives for some reason and use the radio to remote detonate them. Something goes wrong, and one of the soldiers takes a walkie talkie and walks towards the explosives, without any cover, to use it to force them to go off. He has to get very close to them. He gets shot repeatedly, and just before being fatally wounded, he yells "Blow!"

[TOMT][German weapon] Name of an old German weapon. Possibly medieval. The handle I believe could be unscrewed and could be used as a club during close combat.
this was a weapon that's possibly used in medieval times (definitely long before 20th century). The main part may have been a sword and the hilt could be unscrewed or somehow used as a club. Thanks!

[Solved] What is this forum type/ template called?
No particular reason for asking, but I'm about curious the name of this forum template I've been seeing a lot lately (saw it around six months ago the first time). It's basically a linear forum template where there is a timeline on the right side of the site. You can interact with it. 'Template' is probably not the right word, but you get the idea.
Examples: Logseq's forum uses it and so does Anki's forum.

[TOMT] (song) 60s song with rock type riff
Hello.
I always used to associate this song with Knock on Wood by Eddie Floyd, because it has a similar vibe (both are great songs). But for the life of me, I just can't remember the title, artist, lyrics... barely anything from this song.
I remember it had a male vocalist, it was in E (for you music theory nerds out there), had a very prominent main riff, and I'm pretty sure it's from the 60s. It's an R&B/soul type thing of the era, but almost like a precursor of modern rock too. That's all I remember.
I would really appreciate it if someone knows it. It's driving me nuts not knowing!

[TOMT] [Book] Science fiction book about aliens telling humans to stop developing technology
Sorry I don't really have any more detail. I read this blurb about a book on either reddit or goodreads. Something about humanity discovering interstellar travel or something major like that and aliens sending a message warning humanity to stop, or else. At least that's what I remember. Any help would be appreciated. Been searching for a couple of hours and have had no luck.

[Solved] Show where guy in college calls home asking for a photo of his car's hood
The guy tries to surprise his family by asking for a photo of the car, then plans to pop out of a fake car seat. But the plan backfires when he gets stuck. The car has a toy car glued to the hood. The request was something like "the guys don't believe I glued a toy car on the hood, can you send a pic of it" or something.
The show has mystery elements, and the episode starts with the premise that the guy is missing. I forget how popular of a show it is.

[TOMT] A comic strip of devolution. Starts with an office worker pushing a copier out the office tower window, ends up as primitive group chilling around a camp fire.
I remember there being no text or speech, some fire-extinguishers sprayed all over the place, someone hunting with a bow and arrow across an office desk.
It was in a step-by-step airliner-safety-card style of art.
First saw this about 10 years ago on some other site.

[TOMT]man stretching his arms wide open (meme?)
I saw a picture of my friend today and it reminded me of this image. It is a man in a suit (white suit?) with his arms stretched open, but also shoulders raised like shrugging...? Also I think that the man had his (black) hair tied back, in some kind of man bun? Every time I see this image (meme?) the man gives me some kind of mafia feeling
Does anyone have any clue what I might be talking about? Might be out of a movie or something...

[TOMT][YOUTUBE][2012] Minecraft channel featuring my chemistry teacher
So my chemistry teacher went on a tangent in one of our lessons, and started telling us a bit about a Minecraft channel he was a part of in 2012. At its peak, the channel had either 10K subs or 10K views, but the videos were all set to private when YouTube introduced stricter copyright rules. He implied that he was challenging anyone interested to try and find the channel.
The channel itself was run by somebody else, who was not named but apparently used to work for NVIDIA before leaving to work as a kernel dev at ARM. The same guy, at some point, ran a small WoW server on one of my institution's dedicated servers.
The server and the channel would have been based in Northumberland, United Kingdom; and the players would have had northern, Geordie, Northumbrian, or Yorkshire accents.
I will not be naming my teacher, as he said that his name wasn't anywhere on the channel or in the videos; and I would prefer not to disclose the name of my institution to protect whatever's left to protect about my identity.
Does anyone know anything, or am I going to have to put my Sherlock Holmes hat on?

Funny story about the worst day ever
You guys kicked ass finding that article I was looking for.
This one I have been looking for for years.
It's a funny serialized short story about a guy(maybe British) who just keeps having a terrible day, and whenever he uses the f-word to describe a shitty event happening to him, he says fluff instead of fuck. "Fluff that" "so he took my fluffing wallet".
I know for sure at one point he ends up in the hospital, he may have been mugged at the beginning of the story but I'm not 100%, this story was so funny when I first read it and I have never been able to find it again.
Thank you

I'm fairly certain he has a whole series of videos, with this portable stove. Kinda sits so it's almost level with his shoulders.
He's got a fringe cut and glasses, and often is cooking ramen with additions to it.

[Solved] Reno 911! episode where they stop chasing a (naked?) man as soon as he crosses out of their jurisdiction.
I seem to remember this was a Reno 911! episode but my YouTube searching hasn't been able to find the episode/clip.
I think they were chasing a naked man but none of the cops wanted to touch him for obvious reasons. They made a half-hearted attempt to cuff/capture him but as soon as he crossed out of their jurisdiction (county line or something) they throw their hands up because that's not their job anymore.

[SOLVED] A scifi movie/miniseries or episode inspired by Childhood's End
I don't remember a lot of details but I remember the human race ends up allying itself with a seemingly friendly alien race that agrees to give humanity advanced medicine and technology, but with the goal of slowly wiping out humanity through slowly making the species sterile. It follows a couple that is trying to conceive but has so far been unable to and the overlords keep reassuring them thR everything is fine just keep trying but the woman does digging and figures out what is happening but it's already too late. I think there is a time travel story where humanity is prevented from either coming into contact with the aliens in the first place or is warned away from making the deal.
Thank you thank you, it's driving me crazy.

Power Rangers / Super Sentai fight sequence to the music of Ghostface Killah
I'm looking for a music video of a Power Rangers / Super Sentai fight sequence set to Run by Ghostface Killah. In the video the Power Rangers battle a group of enemies for some unidentified object about the size of a football, which changes possession multiple times throughout the fight. From my memory the production quality was pretty good, and it was all shot in one continuous take. I saw it years ago and have had no luck digging it up again.

A short video in which a guy gets slapped in the face with a heart
So I remember a very short video, it might be from before the youtube era but I'm not sure.
The guy was walking towards a girl with a heart in his hands, an actual heart, probably an animals heart, the kind you'll find in a science class.
He looks at the camera, points at the heart and says "Heart!", turns towards the lady, and tells her "I give you my heart". She then slaps the hand holding the heart on his face, and the video stopped there, I think they were laughing.
I have no idea why I thought of this video today, but I can't recall where i saw that.
I think it was either homemade, or on a ridiculous low budget show.

A vocaloid song with and animated clip starring a starving she-wolf, a injured warrior and a demonic child
It's a clip I've seen long ago, it was in Japanese but I had seen a version with subtitles. I think it was Kagamine Rin or Ren. The art style was pretty nice, the colors involved a lot of black, red and white. The story went like this : An injured woman found shelter in a cave, but it was inhabited by a she-wolf. The wolf (who could talk) was about to eat her but agreed to listen to the woman's story first. Turned out this woman was a warrior who had killed a bunch of people, and was betrayed and stabbed right when she had decided to chill. The wolf was like "yeah, very interesting, but I'm still gonna eat you", but then the woman stabbed the wolf. And then she was killed by some kind of demon that came from inside of her. Anyone knows the title ?

Someone telling a story about hiring a fitness trainer to look like Brad Pitt in Fight Club
I believe it was an interview where a guy tells a story about trying to get fit for a movie role so he hires a popular Hollywood fitness trainer. The guy tries to tell the trainer who he wants to look like but the trainer cuts him off and says "Don't tell me, I already know. Brad Pitt, Fight Club." The guys asks how did he know and the trainer says "That's what everyone asks for."

Old Japanese animation MV about a couple of musicians chasing... a ball? Thorough countryside America...late 90s I think.
So I remember this old animation video I saw maybe early 2000s? About a couple of musicians, I think a guy and a girl, and they're chasing some sort...of music sphere? That gives them the inspiration to their music? Something like that...And as they follow hints to find it, they go traveling thorough rural america. I remember at some point they go on a cargo train wagon. I don't think it helps with timeframe reference, but I watched this video on some CD included on a magazine, and it was next to On Your Mark, which is widely more famous.

A UK TV Show with a scene playing on Zhuang Zhou's Butterfly Dream...?
Every few years I try to track something down that I half remember seeing on TV in the 1990s, but I have so far had no luck finding it as I don't have much to go on. I think it was a UK made for TV production, either an episode of a TV show, or maybe a one off TV movie.
The scene I remember features the lead character in an office with his boss. The tone is generally surreal and dreamlike. The office is white and there is a big window. As part of the scene his boss tells him about the famous Chinese story of Zhuang Zhou's Butterfly Dream:
"Once, Zhuang Zhou dreamed he was a butterfly, a butterfly flitting and fluttering about, happy with himself and doing as he pleased. He didn't know that he was Zhuang Zhou.
Suddenly he woke up and there he was, solid and unmistakable Zhuang Zhou. But he didn't know if he was Zhuang Zhou who had dreamt he was a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming that he was Zhuang Zhou."
I can't remember if this is all in one scene, or maybe two scenes spread across the story. Either at the end of the scene, or towards the end of the story the main character finds a matchbox on his bosses desk with a fluttering sound coming from it. His boss is nowhere to be seen. He picks up the box, listens to it, and then opens it. A butterfly flies out of the box and out the window.
This has been driving me nuts for years. Was it a weird film/TV show? A comedy sketch? An illustrative part of a documentary? An advert?
If anyone has any ideas or pointers, please let me know.
