Nirvana did NOT steal the riff from Killing Joke's Eighties. They're completely different riffs that use the same chord progression, something that happens in music CONSTANTLY.

Post your hottest music take. Mine is New Order is better than Joy Division.

On January 30, 1989 a man named Kenneth Lamar Noid took a .357 magnum into a Domino's and held the employees hostage because he thought The Noid was created specifically to mock him. He was arrested after the employees successfully escaped whilst he was eating a pizza he had forced them to make.

The vibes may be exciting, but if Democrats are going to win this year and in 2028, they must reject the DSA. If you’re tempted by a democratic socialist this year, think of what use Republicans will make of these victories, and ask whether you want to do favors for fascists.

Remember when Family Guy used NES gameplay footage from some Youtube videos for a gag and then Fox copyright claimed the original videos? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

A24 is issuing takedowns for all sorts of backrooms content on social media, as well as merch elsewhere right now, that have nothing to do with the movie. I feel like a lot of people were afraid this would happen. They just... own the backrooms concept now I guess. Frustrating

This is the Amnesty International report on the anti-rights groups. These anti-rights groups have immediately engaged in lawfare to bury this report. *be a shame if people kept sharing it. drive.google.com/file/d/1UggI...

Name a TV show you're positive no one remembers but you Hero 108, a comedy action series based loosely off Water Margin, a Chinese novel from the Ming Dynasty that also inspired Giant Robo: The Animation and Outlaw Star.

Name a TV show you're positive no one remembers but you Heil Honey, I'm Home! (1990) A sitcom about Adolph Hitler, Eva Braun, and their Jewish neighbors getting into hijinks. Absolute fever dream of a show that was canceled after one episode.

ARPGs (specifically Diablo and games like Diablo) get very boring very fast. They all start off okay, but about halfway through every one I've played, I get bored because I'm basically doing the same thing over and over again with very little (if any) change in strategy or overall difficulty.

On the final season of Chappelle's Show, they show a series of skits Dave didn't feel comfortable releasing called "The Pixies", which were these broad racial stereotypes that sat on your shoulder and taunted you (played by Dave himself). 1/4

My friend's a big film guy and he likes to take me to see odd films because he knows I'm down for anything. That's how I also saw 'Trash Humpers' by Harmony Korine.

Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already. Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long? Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

"F-bombs" means the word "fuck." I thought it might've the homophobic slur (which WOULD be dehumanizing), but this milquetoast dipshit is actually complaining that people said, "fuck." You can't make this shit up.

Dude wrote a thank you note to himself for his service that adds an extra hoop to jump through to get cheaper medication and he's surprised people didn't like it even though all he did was replace one middle man with another.

Mr Cuban, I just wanted to quickly thank you. My husband has XXXX cancer, a rare gastrointestinal cancer. We are between insurance right now and when we went to pick it up we were informed it was $29,000. We were able to get it from CostPlus for $990. Thank you for saving my husband's life.

If you wanted to do a right wing version of 'Killing in the Name' you'd literally only have to change, "Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me," to, "Yes sir, I'm gonna do what you tell me."

In Bloodrayne 2, in the last level, there's a section where you have to use a your hook weapon to fling enemies into a downed helicopter's still running blades. You can bypass this by going behind a nearby building which messes with the enemy AI and makes them run into the blades by themselves.

Pokemon has many unique type combinations like Bibarel, the only normal/water type; Tyrunt and Tyrantrum, the only rock/dragon types; and the Swinub evolutions, the only ice/ground types.

The tribes you meet in Honest Hearts from Fallout: New Vegas were originally meant to be multiracial, but because the tribes' body paint could only be applied directly to their base skin textures, they had to me made racially homogeneous in order to accommodate the PS3's limited texture memory.

Ulysses, from the Fallout: New Vegas DLC Lonesome Road, was originally meant to be a base game companion. You would've found his home at Wolfhorn Ranch, just outside of Nipton. In his stead, there is now a unique cleaver, in what would've been his house, called Chopper.

In Borderlands 3, there are two unique assault rifles with identical special effects you can find from killing the final bosses in Slaughterstar 3000, Lucian's Call and Rowan's Call. These are named after the children of Gearbox Creative Director Jett Sarrett who were born during development.
