JonCole Posted October 8, 2014 I have a coworker that does the following in the bathroom - Plays a Nicaraguan radio station at full blast on his cell phone Keeps the door to his stall open for no apparent reason Chemical weapon war crimes My new office is located near the restrooms, so I've noticed that all the men in the building will actually not go into the bathroom if they hear his radio. They'll step through the door and step out within five seconds. Worst. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twig Posted October 8, 2014 I once took a Whoopee cushion into the bathroom and kept squeezing it while I pooped. Grown men laughed at it. I was a teenager at the time. Probably 15 ish? I won. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DefaultHuman Posted October 9, 2014 Also fun: We would take two movie titles, mash them together, and then come up with a premise for them. "An eleven-year old kid is left at home while his family goes on vacation and must rig hilarious booby traps and pratfalls to protect the house from Lovecraftian abominations from beyond the stars." Home Alone in the Dark "A pair of plucky children help a homeless man win on a gameshow, on the condition that he donate half the proceeds to their makeshift animal shelter." Hotel for Slumdog Millionaires "A rowdy frathouse band together to protect their toga party from a horde of bloodthirsty zombies" Animal House of the Dead "Two estranged killer cyborgs from the future travel back in time to learn about life, love, and laughter." Terminators of Endearment (Digging around in the nether regions of this thread..) Not only are those mashups amazing, but I'd pay a bunch of hard-earned buckazoids to play Animal House of the Dead. Space Galaxy Quest The same movie, with all characters mostly stationary except Tim Allen, who tries to pick up, taste and sniff everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bjorn Posted October 13, 2014 All I can think about looking through those is Brutal Legend:Eddie Riggs: Ever feel like you were born in the wrong time - like you should have been born earlier, when the music was... real?Roadie: Like the seventies?Eddie: No. Earlier... like the early seventies.

SuperBiasedMan Posted October 14, 2014 I've been listening to classic Thumbs, from episode 1, for a while now and I think I finally I looped back around to the earliest episode I had originally heard. Episode 67 - Dot Gobbler. I unfortunately didn't remember the Dot Gobbler discussion but I did remember the talk about an arcade expo sharing a convention hall with a gathering of Jehovahs witnesses, with a theme park across the road. Some memorable banter was had. They also got in a seg about Farcry (not 2, the arcade one with Paradise Lost and several other words in the title). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SecretAsianMan Posted October 16, 2014 I just spotted a package of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in a vending machine that was about ready to fall. So I bought the next package and got two for the price of one. Wooooo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dibs Posted October 16, 2014 I just spotted a package of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in a vending machine that was about ready to fall. So I bought the next package and got two for the price of one. Wooooo! On the flip side, every time I'm at a vending machine i wonder is there a word to describe the feeling just before your vend falls, when you are sure that it won't fall. also, congrats.

Merus Posted October 16, 2014 The vending machine at my last job had a sensor that detected if something fell, and if it didn't after enough time, it refunded you. Why is this not standard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

melmer Posted October 16, 2014 Why is the movie "Demolition Man" called Demolition Man? I'm probably going to answer my own question here, is it because Wesley's character likes blowing shit up and its his comic book villain nick name? I just find it weird that the film is named after the bad guy, when its not even his main motivation in the film? Isn't he blackmailing people for money The film should be called Blackmailer Bomber or CryoCop or some shit Demolition Man is a great movie name it just doesn't have a great deal to do with the actual plot INTERESTING FACT: The role of Simon Phoenix was offered to Jackie Chan who turned it down, citing he did not wish to "play a bad guy".

SecretAsianMan Posted October 16, 2014 The titular Demolition Man is actually Sly Stalone's character John Spartan's nickname. The old, aged black cop who still remembers the good old days explains that he was called that because of the tendency for things to be destroyed while he's pursuing criminals. But even with that in mind, it's still not a very fitting name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Merus Posted October 17, 2014 They've done this in Australia since the iPhone 1 because you can't sell phones permanently locked to carriers in Australia. They are bundling up something they've always done in countries with adequate consumer protection and touting it as a feature. With an incredibly stupid name!
