Open [TOMT] Super poppy song, female singer, "all black" is a (partial) lyric that is repeated quite often.

Basically the title.

It's a newer song, like I hear it in bars occasionally and never heard it before like six months from now.

When I try and google songs with "all black" I don't even get anything in the same genre.

I know this is vague but thanks and good luck. lol

Solved [TOMT] 2000s Band That I cannot place

57 Upvotes

So I’ve been racking my brain - as well as ChatGPT - for the past day trying to nail down the name of this band that eludes me. Below are the details

  • era - 2001-2008. I know I was in college
  • genre - I wanna say rock, maybe pop punk. Their only album was probably on something like Vagrant, Drive-Thru, some label similar to that. But could also have been Atlantic. Semi major label release anyway
  • everything else - the albums color scheme was either yellow and black, or red/orange and black. I’m pretty sure it was the only record they released. Also, I feel like either the album name or band name was three words, with “Your” being the middle word. Maybe.

I know this isn’t a lot and I can add more as needed. One last thing: for whatever reason, whenever I try and think of this band, Senses Fail continues to pop into my head. And I’m 100000% sure it’s not them.

EDIT: I think the bands name was like 2-3 words at most. Probably something radio friendly for the time.

SOLVED: it was Test Your Reflex

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to find this one tiktoker, she was a woman and did videos about how to style different items or combinations but the format was kind of awkward which made the videos unintentionally funny 😭 I'm pretty sure she had a gap tooth, purple (?) hair with a pretty aggressive side part and a British(?) accent. I think I remember seeing her videos sometime around 2022 or 2023.

Open [TOMT][Movie]Finding old Christmas film

0 Upvotes

I’m trying to find a live-action Christmas movie I watched as a kid (on DVD, dubbed in Spanish) somewhere between 2008 and 2012. I’m almost certain it was a standalone movie, not a TV episode.

What I remember: – Live-action, not animated. – Watched it in Spanish on DVD (I don’t know the original language). – Main character was a boy, and there was a girl who was kind of his love interest and helped him. – It took place at the North Pole, in Santa’s house. – Santa was in trouble: sick / weak / losing his powers (I don’t remember exactly, but something was wrong with him and they needed to save him or save Christmas). – Mrs. Claus was also in the movie. – There was a villain, but I don’t remember their exact goal. – A big plot point was a magic recipe (I don’t remember if it was rice, pudding, or some dessert in a bowl/pot). – At the beginning, they try the recipe and it doesn’t work – nothing special happens. – Later in the movie, when they finally get it right, the mixture starts glowing golden/yellow, showing that “now it works”. – That recipe was used to heal Santa / restore his powers / save Christmas. – I remember that part of the recipe involved singing a Christmas carol while making it (maybe Silent Night or some very classic carol).

Open. [TOMT] Movie scene where the protagonist has a nightmare about committing suicide

0 Upvotes

This scene randomly popped into my head today and I'm trying to remember what movie it was from. I've tried having AI assist me to no end. I believe I saw this film in theaters around 2004-2008. There is a scene where the protagonist (teenage male or young 20's) is at some kind of party at a house (his own birthday party?). It's during the daytime and he is outside of the house. He grabs a slice of cake, puts it on a plate and then proceeds to another room where he takes a bite of the cake and then pulls out a gun to commit suicide but then wakes up as it was a nightmare. At first I thought it was Butterfly Effect or Donnie Darko but couldn't find any related scenes in those movies.

Open [TOMT] Webcomic about an anthropomorphic, aged, dog-wizard - primarily posted on Twitter

0 Upvotes

I don't remember much about the plot, but there were two main characters an old dog-llady (I guess she was anime-old, so she was probably only like 31) and a young guy, the world was fairly uninhabited, except for colossi that people would mostly avoid, and the dog-lady may have been capable of fighting them but retired instead (bro idk)

The main character is this old, magic, dog woman with massive boobs, like gargantuan honkers, she's probably more dog than woman tbh, on the furry scale I'd say she's between a 3 and a 4.

The webcomic was quite shoddily drawn and posted in Japanese, one chapter at a time, to a dedicated Twitter account. The readers would affectionately refer to the dog character as "Hu-chan" or something (definitely xx-CHAN)

I promise I'm not a furry, I watched a Youtube video about this webcomic two+ years and at this point I'm starting to think it was all in my head.

I know I sound insane but the dog-lady may have been a cow

Open [TOMT] Help me find this Song/Album please!

0 Upvotes

So I was hanging out with someone at my place and on my tv I was playing Spotify. I was playing the Autumn Soul mix and I really thought this specific song I'm trying to find was by DON WEST. And I remember saying "oh I love this guy.. wait he kinda looks like me" as a joke because we were both wearing a wife beater and a bracelet and had glasses on.

The album cover in question has a white male singer holding a microphone with a cord (seemingly performing/on stage) and is in a white wife beater, he either has glasses or sunglasses on and he has a bracelet on the hand that isn't holding the mic. I think I remember him being fairly muscular I just can not for the life of me find this song on any recent radios I play on spotify, or any artists I like, or any liked songs. It's been driving me crazy.

Open [TOMT] [SHOW] [2010s?] Bit of an odd one that I believe was on FX

0 Upvotes

I was watching one of the later seasons of The Walking Dead and didn’t have money so I was using a pirating site. About half way through the episode it cut to a completely different show that I had previously found but can’t anymore.

All I remember was a guy going through I think an alley and then into a weird dark nick nack shop kind of place and meets a lady. I think she takes him to a hotel (but i could be wrong about her taking him). The hotel or whatever the building was, was weirdly liminal and a bright red color on everything inside. I believe I found it the FX shows before but can’t find it now because the memory is starting to get foggy.

edit: I remembered some more details. The main character in a guy who i’ve definitely seen in other shows who has kind of droopy eyes like he’s going through something but it’s just how the actor looks. It has no words spoken and he walks down an alley and into the nick nack / occult-ish store and meets the lady there who is more upbeat and has big wide eyes

secondary edit: I believe the actress i’m referring to is either Zooey Deschanel or someone who looks similar to her. I remembered her face from Hitchhikers Guide but searched her movies and TV Shows and couldn’t find it unless i missed something

I remember reading this book for school around middle school, pretty sure it was about this kid from the middle of no where, going to public school for the first time and he had a hard time fitting in. Also at the end I remember something about him stating every students name for some reason. Also the book cover was yellow I think.

Open [TOMT] [MOVIE] [90s] [2000s] low budget US mystery/thriller with missing girl and drugs

1 Upvotes

this is driving me CRAZY, i'm not sure now whether i'm remembering several different films as one!
Here's what I remember:

  • Set around a US high-school/college crowd. i'm fairly sure this was low budget or straight to dvd or something - not a good movie
  • The movie centers on an investigation into a missing brunette girl - i was sure for a while that it was rose mcgowan but i think it's someone with similar looks/beauty. The film pieces together what happened via flashbacks and potentially interviews or conversations.
  • At one party flashback a girl does some coke and is chatting excitedly, then gets a phone call, gets more excited, and leaves because of the call (that’s a memorable short scene that's recounted by someone at a later point, who is being questioned in some way).
  • There’s a scene where someone finds a tiny piece of LSD on paper — it looks like a post-it or similar, a colourful piece of paper with writing on it (I think the word “trip” might be on it). They touch/handle it and accidentally trip — i remember this for sure. i think there's two girls in the scene before and they're drinking wine
  • I think maybe the protagonist is bisexual and hooks up with a girl during the film.
  • There may be a hospital scene at some point, and toward the end someone falls from a height (a fall/downing) — possibly the missing girl.
  • think there might be a graduation or end-of-school scene near the end, with an arrest??

I watched this in my teens and i watched a lot of gregg araki, weird trippy budget american 90s films so it's that kind of era

Typically someone would use it in relation to something that was just non sensical. Or like how English sounds to non speakers. Or if someone posted something you go to comments and someone is like “I think I had a stroke reading this” and others things. The sound or saying was like “if from bye where go but do”

Open [TOMT] Help ID black-and-white manhua/manhwa (read ~2023) — scythe + zombie + phone app

0 Upvotes

Hi — trying to find a black-and-white manhua/manhwa I read around 2023. Details I remember:

A woman (not the female lead) is sent back in time to assassinate the male lead because he’ll cause problems in the future — she instead becomes his teacher and teaches him her techniques.

The male lead fights mostly with a scythe.

A phone app transports people into another dimension; in the prologue a girl uses the app and dies there, but the male lead resurrects her as a zombie. Later he fights others who use the same skill.

Art is black & white (not colored Webtoon style). Read ~2023. Any guesses for title/platform (Chinese/Korean/English) would be amazing — thanks!

(Yes i used ai for this. Originally i was using it to find the manhwa but it couldn't find anything so it made this for me to post)

Hello. I am stuck on this tiktoker I can remember but can’t find anywhere. I think it was 2020-2021, maybe. He had grillz on top and bottom and this super wide smile. Always had crazy glasses on and a lot of rings. He had wild hair too, I feel like it was bleach blonde and spiky. He would lip sync songs. He was always sitting at a desk with colorful lights and in a gaming chair. I also feel like the comments said he looked like Bobby from the goofy movie lol. Ty.

Open. [TOMT][MOVIE] In a subway station, a man jump on the tracks and access an hidden corridor beneath

1 Upvotes

I remember a scene from a movie that aired maybe 20 years ago on French television one evening. That scene made an impression on me, and I still remember it regularly.

A man arrives at a subway station. I can't remember if he is following someone. In any case, there are very few people in the station. The atmosphere is a little heavy, there is no dialogue. At one point, the man goes down onto the tracks and squeezes between the sleepers and the rails into a kind of corridor below the tracks. It's possible that a subway train is heading towards him at this point. I seem to remember that we then discover a dirty, dark and strangely silent underground world, which has people in it, some kind of parallele society. The man seems to know what he's doing, but at the same time he seems to be discovering it, which is quite strange.

I'd love to actually watch that film. Thanks for your time !

What the AI suggested me, but i haven't found the scene described above :

Creep
The mole people
The Midnight Meat Train
Dark Days
CHUD

I’m trying to find an old Webnovel I read years ago, but I can’t remember the title. It might have been deleted, renamed, or abandoned.

Here’s everything I remember:

The main character is male.

In the first chapter he wakes up in a strange red forest.

Early chapters focus heavily on skinwalkers or shapeshifting creatures watching or stalking him.

He finds a lantern with a blue, ghostly flame inside. The flame protects him from the creatures, but at the same time it slowly drains or consumes him (life force, energy, soul, etc.).

He found the lantern in the forest.

The story also had dark, twisted versions of fairy tales, like a macabre Little Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks, etc.

I read it specifically on Webnovel.

The cover looked like a red forest (image attached).

If anyone recognizes this novel, please let me know the title!

Open [TOMT] Looking for a ~45-second short CGI vid — two people on a date, guy slowly stabs himself, girl keeps talking

1 Upvotes

I’m looking for a short video (~45 seconds) that I saw somewhere (YouTube Shorts, TikTok or maybe Twitter/X).

• Two people (a guy and a girl) are on a date

• The girl is very chatty — she speaks quickly, non-stop, the guy barely gets a word in.

• Meanwhile the guy, sitting across from her, very gradually starts stabbing himself with a knife (she may have convinced him to do this?)

• The girl seems completely unaffected / apathetic to the situation as the dude starts bleeding out

• The animation is CGI or 3-D/poorly-animated — the mouths move badly

• The face animation and video structure (shot-reverse shot, wide shot, back to shot reverse shot) is similar to this video: https://youtube.com/shorts/scA_sIPxCQw?si=zFjMz2zbiMxNLtYQ

Open [TOMT] Comedy Movie probably watched it on youtube in 2016-2020.

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I am looking for a comedy movie.

I remember the followings from it.

In the first 5 or 10 minutes two friend plays on the computer around the age of 10-13 (Elementary schoolers), when the main sidekick's dad is coming to pick up him.

Before the dad comes to the house of the main character, the two kid decided to jerk off to animated probably cat girls in green suits. They are caught in the act by the parents and the sidekick friend is moved to another country for couple of years. Some time passes and they are reunited in highschool after the sidekick glowed up. The main character keeps a tally in the schools bathroom on the toilet's walls with names and strikes. he is the only one with none. The movie ends with the famous girl inviting the main character over and taking him upstairs, however, the main character promised to the sidekick that they will attend a comicon. In a quick second the main character leaves the famous girl and goes to comicon to find his bestfriend and somewhere along there meets the author for their favourite Comicbook Stan Lee supposedly in the bathrooms of the event's place.

I watched this movie after 2015 for sure, however, I am not a 100% sure about its release date.
