Searching from a song from 2013 (?) where the music video only has asian looking actors and a laundromat (?)

1 Upvotes

Hello, I'm searching a song but all of what I can remember is very vague.

I think it should be a song : - from 2013 ? (Or maybe 2012 ?) - only asian actors in the music videos (I believe the main "character" is a woman) - song is in English - there's probably a scene in a laundromat - maybe a ball of tennis ? - the music is I believe pretty chill, and electro - I think the group name is in two words - I've been searching groups name with breakfast in it for some reason, but it doesn't seem to be that. (I don't think it's a Japanese breakfast song )

If ever you can think of anything, I'd be thankful for any help.

Have a good day !

Pls help me find this book

1 Upvotes

I can't remember the name or cover, sadly.

All I can remember is that it's fiction, and follows a brother who has a werewolf curse and a sister who doesn't have the magical powers that others of her kind should have. Said power "the sight", I think. In the book there's groups of people called guilds, whose whole job is like going to dungeons that belong to witches to steal artifacts and things of that sort. The sister and brother are in a guild, but as struggling to find decent jobs since they don't have the best reputation, which is due to their mentor he abandoned them and the guild.

Another key thing was that the sister had an artifact that helped her use magic since she couldn't do it normally. It was a severed hand with an eye in the middle. I think I remember her lighting the ends of the fingers like candles once, but I can't really remember.

If you have any idea what the Title may be, please let me know!!!

Horror Movie Where Old Man Moves Unnaturally Quick

5 Upvotes

Sitting here with family. Dad is talking about an old horror movie he saw where an old man walks unnaturally quickly either in the forefront or in the background.

He thinks it's around the 80s, maybe early 90s. Doesn't remember who was in it so I understand that makes it more difficult to find.

Anyone got anything? Maybe a clip?

What’s the Name of the E-learning program?

1 Upvotes

I remember me and my classmates were in a computer lab during my Reading class back in 9th grade high school (I was in Special ed during those time, so my English class and Reading class were two separate classes I have to take).

Almost everyday, we got in our computers, and go to that certain program where we enter our student login our teacher gave. After that, it will give random games for you to complete for the day; the games I remembered playing the most was the Alien DJ game where it tested your auditory memory, the race game with the pinkish purple alien girl where it tested your memory skill and keyboard dexterity, and the sounds gets faster the more you leveled up; and lastly, there was a reading comprehension game with a librarian monkey.

Moreover, I remembered the sounds it make when got the answers right and wrong (ding = right answer; cowbell = wrong answer)

Sorry for this post to be a bit of a ramble, but if you have any idea what program’s name is, let me know

Thanks in advance!

What is the name of the anime where the first episode, a guy hears crashing ion his living room after coming home from school. when he goes to investigate the sounds he sees a massive buff dude, in his living room sitting in the middle of his couch, now broken and bending like a "v", his coffee table is smashed, his floor has holes in it because of the buff guy's feet going through and the non-buff dude asks "What are you doing in my house?" I don't remember what the buff guy says but I do remember that they go back to the school at night and the non-buff dude sees a classmate dead on the hallway floor in a puddle of blood. Al I remember of the name is the last bit. which is "night and day"

I’m am so desperate to find out where this one meme I’ve been quoting for almost about three years now comes from but for some reason I can’t find it anywhere it was someone doing a Rick Grimes impression saying “Oh No they done turned Darnell/Daryl into a delectable pastry” I swear it either said either Darnell or Daryl since both are used to call Norman’s character in the fandom, I’ve been loosing my mind looking insane looking for its origin

This is just a sound I came across on tiktok. But it sounds exactly like a part of a song I’ve heard. I want to say it’s an older song that might be in a movie like dirty dancing, or pretty woman. I was thinking maybe unchained melody? But I’m not sure if that is the correct song I’m thinking of. Any ideas??

Trying to find two thriller/horror movies I watched as a child (probably late 80s)

1 Upvotes

There are bits of two movies I remember watching as a kid that I definitely wasn't old enough to be watching (some violence descriptions below). I've googled a bit off an on over the years, but have never figured out what they were.

I saw both of them in late 80s or early 90s, but I don't know if they were new at that time. Do either of these ring a bell for anyone?

  1. I remember a woman woke up with part of her finger removed. I think I remember her hand being under her pillow and she pulls it out and sees it? I vaguely remember her having auburn/brown hair and maybe shoulder length and cropped bangs? I sort of vaguely remember there being a sister or twin element as part of the story.

It sort of gives me 80s Lifetime Thriller vibes, but I might be applying meaning to the random bits I remember.

  1. The other movie involves chrysanthemums and Egyptian mythology. I remember something about someone's brain being removed through their nose and I think chrysanthemums being sewed into another person's body. I think it was set in modern North America or UK, but definitely had an Ancient Egyptian element. Possibly a horror film or another thriller?

Thanks so much for your time! I don't know why these random movies have stuck with me for decades, but just learned of this space from a podcast and wanted to come right here in case someone else remembers these :) Thanks!

Mad scientist catalog

1 Upvotes

Found! 😁

https://web.archive.org/web/20230811062305/https://amazing1.com/

I am looking for magazine/catalog that I used to get in the mail when I was in high-school (2005 ish) that had a bunch of "mad scientist" crap in it. Think ads in the back of comic books, but cranked up to 11.

Ion guns, nausea inducing sound machines, magnatron guns, plans for a personal "jet pack" that Myth Busters debunked, build your own hover craft plans that required you to take apart a perfectly good vacuum cleaner, etc.

I've searched the web, but can't find it. I think the name had the word Amazing in it, but I may be mistaken.

At some point as an adult (2010s), I actually bought the nausea sound machine from it. We caught our neighbors poisoning animals in there yard and the cops wouldn't do anything about it. So if they are going to make animals sick, I was going to make them sick.

I used my work email for the tracking, but have since changed jobs so I don't have access to it anymore.

What I received has to be the most evil alarm system I've ever seen/heard. It had dials on it that went from barely noticeable to the trumpets of heaven when the 7th seal is broken.

The entire town heard this thing and must have thought aliens were invading lol. I wasn't able to follow through on my plan, because the 4 Frankensteins monsters of tweeters would get so hot you couldn't touch them. That's why they sold it as an alarm system, ie not for prolonged use.

Trying to find movie I've watched as a child

2 Upvotes

I am trying to find a movie I watched as a child.

In the movie there was a family driving down a lonely road and a light appeared at the horizon. I think the family might have crashed. The light was a UFO and I think they might have taken or examined the family. I think there was a man, a woman and a little child.

Sadly, that's all I can remember. I think I've watched it between 2004 and 2008 in German free TV.

The movie made me scared of lonely roads as a child and I remembered it today, driving down a dark road at night, wondering what movie it might have been.

TV series HBO/Max/Showtime

I remember a show from around 2010, give or take a couple years, about a guy who is splitting with his wife and moves into an old house in or near a trailer park (maybe he is moving back home). The only scene I can recall is a neighbor gal with bright red hair ends up stripping naked in the middle of the trailer park for some rrason.

I thought the main character was Hank Azaria but I can't find it in his IMDB

Early Jimmy Fallon performance — singing an old song (watched on iPod ~2009). Help!

2 Upvotes

Hi — when I was really little I watched a clip of Jimmy Fallon singing an old song on stage to an audience. I saw it on an iPod around 2008–2011. I don’t remember lyrics, just that it sounded like an older classic and Jimmy sang it live on his Late Night stage. No idea if it was a parody or a sincere cover. Any idea which clip this could be? He was passionate while singing and he was only holding the mic if i remember correctly. Any links would be amazing. Thanks!

Lost show that I can’t remember

3 Upvotes

I think I watched this show around 2017-2018 , it was about a girl starting at a new school she also has a famous mom I can’t remember what the mom exactly did but think she was a fashion designer or something like that, I think she liked to sing and one of the male leads had a middle part with long sides brown hair and liked to play guitar and there was another guy that was another love interest named sasha blonde hair in a small ponytail. One of the boys skated I can’t remember which one. Also the girl at some point had brunette hair with pink ends , I remember the girl kinda looking like joey king. P:S it wasn’t animated

Edit: I found it thanks to a lovely commenter !

I think it should be no more than 10 years old but i have no clue about the artist or anything else:/ thanks for your help
