A few days ago someone posted to Reddit looking for a Dopplerganger and I had a spot on response. The only issue being that I couldn’t figure out what movie or TV show I knew this person from. So I now will do my best to describe this person. It was a Mclovin or Squints (sandlot) type character. Dark hair, no glasses, i vaguely remember they had like a smug type of personality. The type of character that the humor comes from dry sarcasm instead of hamming it up. Think Daria. I’m fairly certain that they only had a very small role in possibly only one movie. I’m completely puzzled on how I’ll ever figure it out and it might just be something that lives festering in the back of my mind slowly rotting away whatever last shred of plausible sanity I have left. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance either way.

I can’t remember any verse, cause I could find it this way. I only know the beginning, it’s a pretty famous pop song with a guitar strumming.

Here’s a vacaroo

Updated vocaroo, hopefully this one is better:

Ok so l'm trying so hard to remember a show that would be on very late at night l'm guessing on WB. I would wake up and the show was on after falling asleep watching tv with my dad. I swear there was a man that had a very chiseled almost boulder-esque face who was maybe an alien working on the ship?
And I'm nearly positive there was an episode where it was revealed this boulder man had a detachable penis and in one episode he loses it.
Even further, I once went looking for this show and found someone asking about it on Reddit. I can't find that now.
Please someone remember or know what l'm talking about

Around 5+ Years ago I saw this show, its an zombie survival show that fallows 4 survivors that come across eachother and have to travel somewhere, I don't recall their names or much of what they looked like except they were all adults and the main character it followed was a strong black guy that didn't talk much. They had weapons and tools and were already in the apocalypse in the first episode. The only other scene I vividly remember is from the first couple episodes, they travel to a school and get stuck in a near pitch black school gymnasium that starts to get overrun with zombies and they have to find a way out.

I've been looking it up and some shows that are very similar but aren't it are Black Summer and FTWD.
Its also not Z nation, but its very similar to the spin off Black Summer

Heard the beginning of a song on a radio on a job site where the beginning riff sounded very similar to the opening riff in Green Grass & High Tides by the Outlaws. A little different but similar guitar tone. There was also a kinda upbeat fast, high notes piano riff as well. Male singer, unfortunately I couldn’t hear the lyrics very well. I’d guess this was played on a radio station, heard in southern Ontario Canada.

EDIT: Adding vocaroo for the piano. The notes and timing are probably incorrect as I’m trying to remember how it sounded. But similar to this style of sound, notes were really high

Back in middle school (2001-2003), a classmate introduced me to a fantasy/sci-fi book series. I really enjoyed it but never finished it and for the life of me cannot remember the name of the series or how many books there were. I've tried searching over the last couple of decades but have not been able to find it. This sub started showing up on my feed and thought I would see if maybe anyone here could help me.

The series followed 3 main characters from different worlds and are eventually transported to a new world where they meet. One was a street kid from like NY or some other similar urban city that did card trick scams or something. The next was another guy from a world where everyone never went outside and only interacted through a virtual reality program. The last was a girl, I think her name was Helene, and she was pretending to be a boy at first. I'm pretty sure she was princess in her home world but wanted so badly to be a knight.

They eventually meet another character that I think was called The Oracle that would help them in the new world they ended up in.

Names are very important in this world. So much so that you should never give your real name to people you do not know or trust.

There is also another written language (might be a coded language) that three characters have to figure out. The VR guy figures it out and realizes it's the normal English alphabet but reversed.

Thanks in advance to anyone that knows or can help me figure out the name of this book series!

Im looking for a song that is quite popular on tiktok but genuinely I have no clue how to search for it. It starts with a twinkly/sparkly sound and is usually played over like 'classy' or 'money' videos and then a (maybe french)? womans voice kicks in.
I would be able to recognize it in an INSTANT but I don't speak the language of the song and obviously can't just type 'sparkly sounding song' on tiktok T_T

Please help me find a French arthouse film probably from the 1960s. My memories are vague and if I remember correctly there is no linear plot, rather scenes from the life of the main character.

Main character is a young guy, maybe a university student. I think he has semi-long brown hair.
I remember clearly the opening scene: this guy is explaining to other young people (other students?) how most people are walking incorrectly and it’s shown on the soles of their shoes: the abrasions on the sole are at the wrong place. He somehow connect this fact with some kind of philosophical theory.

Later he joins to political movements but I think he changes his perspective frequently. I think he also has a girlfriend but they argue a lot (?) and they’re not completely monogamous (not sure about this).

There are a lot of political and philosophical arguments in the film, like about communism, capitalism etc.

And of course, as it’s a French film, many cigarettes are smoked lol

I've heard an edit of this song today and can't remember the original. I think it's an electronic song with deep male vocals. Not exactly rapping, more like speaking over music. Most likely African American singer. The song or the chorus begins with a loud LET'S GOO.

I know it was a pretty big hit in the past.

Edit: Although I'm almost 100 percent sure it's an African American singer from what I remember, the song has a sort of Pitbull quality to it. Or maybe even flo-rida. It's a very 2010-coded club song.

I remember literally nothing else about the song. It's just an earworm from some time ago and I just have the part where a guy saying something like, "(implied women) yellin me so hoooooornay"

I want to say it might be one of those songs categorized as both comedy and earnest at once. 

I think it's from a movie, but the main character gets mad at all the people fussing around them trying to be overly helpful

My SIL saw this and is trying to remember it

Movie where woman is a psychic. a man is on horseback sees a Native American woman with braids with a basket in her head and jumps on her and opens her blouse, possibly assault her her.

Psychic Woman has a big old house.

Visually similar to “the missing” and is not the 70s film “Haunted”

This one has perplexed me for years. There was a comedy where in one particular scene, there were several guys I believe maybe in a locker room. They were all snooty business types and supposedly were discussing business in the background. But, if you listened closely, they were just rattling off business words like "stocks, bonds, GDP" I believe it was a movie from the 80's or early 90's but have never seen it again. Any ideas?

So, there was this series I watched as a kid, and I can't find it anywhere. It was about a family of screws (4 I believe), and they had a friend who was a kid. I believe that the color of the screws were, Teal, Blue, Orange and Pink (But I'm not sure). uhh that's all I have rn ;-;

I remember in the late 2000s/early 2010s seeing a picture of Dev Patel and Freida Pinto in a magazine of them laughing. I believe that he was in a tux and she was holding his arm. Her dress was dark red/purple, and her hair was in a messy updo. The background was white.

i sound like a schizo trying to explain this but uhh i’m pretty sure i played this with my brother maybe 2014ish, it most probably might’ve been on friv, but i can’t guarantee that. I don’t remember much, but i remember vividly that we could collect these candy wrappers, i think they were pink. I’m not sure if they would go into our inventory or they would add to a counter. Anyways i remember it was a game where there were didferent places you could explore, i’m not sure if you could walk about, but im pretty sure it was a point and click game, also it was a 2d drawing of a setting, there may have been some animation but i can’t remember. Also i have this one scene engraved in my mind, pretty sure it was this pool area, but it was all dark and gloomy and sorta moldy, the whole game was like that i think. It’s a really vague description, then again im trying to remember 12 yrs ago 😭😭 also, i don’t even know what the whole premise of the game was, but there was def a creepyish aspect towards it, so uhhh pls help me find this game, i’ve randomly remembered it and it won’t leave my mind

I remember this song from when I was a teen (I think) so I'm gonna say from 2010 to 2014-ish. I have no idea what the lyrics could be because English isn't my first language, but I remember it having the exact same beat (maybe a sample?) of I Gotta Feeling by the Black Eyed Peas, if not the same then extremely similar. It was a man singing too, and he sounded softer than the original song.

Please help me find out if at least something like this exists, I'm going crazy trying to remember

I have no clue what movie it is from. I remember it had some sort of fox/wolf and her relation to another animal. the dog became some sort of mini celebrity and was used to record some videos. It's not fox and hound and at this point i have no clue what movie could it be.
