SOP at my wife's firm was a junior agent does the open to 1. help them meet potential clients, and 2. possibly keep both sides of the deal in house. That latter point was big, because dual-agency was...

It's literally shaped like Jeff Bezos

Looking at it from the point of view that asking is generally based on comps, and that the conversation goes something like, "the Joneses got 800 for their house" "yes, but ours is nicer", prices...

Oh, I am a dumbass.

When I picture David Cross, it's in Blue Man makeup, but that could just be from seeing bennymac's avatar for so long. If something was funny in the 90s (and beyond) there's a...

White Jag, and ruthlessly mocked by Brit.

Completely agree. Even Living in Darkness is a little basement studio-ish, but at least it sounds a lot more like a live band.

I was riffing on the idea that Mr. Show with Bob and David was a silly name, and that they worked together on lots of shows in the 90s (Ben Stiller Show, News Radio...) and and 00s. Plus if you ask...

The show so good even Joe Rogan couldn't wreck it.

NR trivia: Stephen Root's character is named after Jimi Hendrix

My wife said not enough penis. Musta been cold.

Yeah definitely. ILC, Kids in the Hall, that Bob Odenkirk / David Cross show whatever it was called, Jon Stewart's original show on MTV - although Stewart clearly hadn't honed his online persona, his...

lol @ subtle plague, that's beautiful

In reference to my band in high school, someone stated "you guys are new wave. There's a girl in your band and she plays keyboards. Those are the rules"

You mean The Feederz?

There's a pretty funny thread where someone here had some kind of issue with Gordon Gano irl.

Were you the guy putting "red quarters" in the arcade games?

If you were a regular at the pipeline - especially in the early days - you have for sure met my aunt Jeanne. She was at the park most...

This sent me down an internet rabbit hole. They made an album in 96! Probably would've bought it had I known. And it's actually recorded well, unlike their first two albums.



I only have it on...

Holy shit!

Krist Novoselic has said Nirvana was simultaneously perceived as "too punk" and "not punk" at all.

IMO, Black Flag for socal, and Dead Kennedys for norcal would be on the punk end of the scene,...

That would be a good name for a 90s cover band.

"Like The Village People, only sadder"

My parents could tell you exactly where they were when they heard Kennedy was shot. I could tell you exactly where I was, and who I was with, when I watched the slo-mo-white-bronco.

As for Dookie,...

Yeah, that's it. A cop car with a dummy in the seat parked where people speed is safety/prevention. A camera is pure revenue.

Solid list. I'd add Descendents, Minutemen, Husker Du, and Replacements.

Surprised to see you've heard Agent Orange. I'm assuming you haven't always been ECRC adjacent? Or maybe they got bigger...

I saw them a few times right around then as well, although not in the Bay Area - which would've been great, home turf and all. Especially Gilman.

Pretty sure they're still a band, although I think...

Yeah, it was. But I can't take credit for it, because the broth is the make or break.

Connecting the food and music theme, during the early 90s, I lived in a rented house with the guys from my...

Some things never change. Tonight's dinner (that I'm eating right this minute) consists of my wife's scratch made ramen broth from yesterday, plus stuff I found in the fridge.

Not that far north

Hmmm... if you're talking a little north of Tacoma, that is who my guess would've been.

I'm kinda amused by him being thought to be both Benny and Altasnob, considering the former is too old to care about this thread, and the latter was in diapers.

In the late 90s I drove this, but with more stripes that had been added by the previous owner.

When my cousin first saw it, he said it looked like something Beck would drive, thus The...

Absolutely.

Drop D tuning: the sound of the 90s

Oh man, I do remember that being pointed out back when when it was released, but subsequently forgot. Sucks getting old...

Held up so well Nirvana ripped it off eight years later

Solid Rockford Files reference

I have a friend in Vancouver who liked to participate in focus groups. In our younger/poorer days I joined him at the ones offering free food (and one time a free beer). He told me that when he...

Canadian nickels really did have points. Twelve of them. I had one in my coin collection when I was a kid.

You sure that wasn't Mike Tyson?

Same here.

Fun to play, boring af to watch

Yeah, it runs on everything. iOS, macOS, android, linux, chrome, and even windoze, if that's still a thing :FIREdevil

The permissions on mobile are a little onerous (because of the artwork,...

I can't believe nobody picked up on that joke. Labrador's a tool.

It's where Fred Schneider or Kate Pierson would live if they hadn't become rock stars.

There's fairly credible speculation from Toyota forums that the next gen 4Runner won't share any powerplants with the Tundra. The rumors are two 4 cylinder options: a turbo 2.4L matched with an 8...
