The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

I'm actually quite surprised at the number of recent teen movies and TV shows that used recognizable '80s / early '90s music in their school dance scenes; either the originals, or covers. The "Wednesday Addams" school dance is just the latest.

Tim Burton is a late boomer whose tastes are on the Gen X cusp.

Basically every commercial in the 00's had one of three songs:
*"Just What I Needed" by the Cars
*"Brave" by Sara Bareillies
*"Five-Dollar Footlongs"

No baby back baby back baby back chiiiiiiiillliiiis baby back ribs chillliiiiiiis baby back ribs?

I don't mean to freak anybody out here, but you can do whatever you want in your home D&D game.

WotC doesn't have the manpower to kick down everyone's doors and tell them to stop including stuff that they might not like.

Oh, they try. No one in Renton is allowed to ever use third party content or homebrew anything, but WotC don't even have the staff to keep all of Seattle under their jackboots.

You're free! You're all free!

But it isn't just his work where I've seen this happen. Unfortunately I can't dredge up any other examples from those truly forgettable teen-based movies, but they do exist.

Forgettable teenage movies are the only place GenX filmmakers are allowed to work! It's brutal in Hollywood!

Like Chillis, I dont remember Scrubs, or much of the 90s.That was one good ad campaign tho.

P1: "So pineapple doesn't exist anywhere at all in the campaign world?!?

P2: "Nope!"

P1: "That feels really odd given that half of the pizzeria's are either run by or heavily influenced by folks from Detroit and NYC. I mean, do all of the other vegetables like water chestnuts and sardines and random toppings show up but not pineapple?"

P2: "Yup, except for Tuna. That's really bad too."

P1: "Worse than water chestnuts and sardines!?"
