  • Cartoon Network goes on air

  • Sinéad O'Connor rips up a picture of Pope John Paul II on SNL

  • Rage Against the Machine releases their first album

  • Disney's Aladdin is released and makes a fuck load of money

Billy Ray Cyrus's daughter is born

She has a song out called "Used to be Young". She was born in the 90s and has a song out about not being young and crazy any more. WT-actual-F

Everyone over the age of 20 thinks they're old now.

Everyone older than them responds with some variation of, "Just you wait!"

Always been this way.

She's 31. Which isn't that old but older than the "young and crazy" phase I suppose

Billl Cosby won a kids choice award

What else could be there? An R Kelly CD?

It’s actually just a trap door that when opened spews slime on everyone nearby.

This might be the only satisfying and appropriate conclusion without things getting really somber really fast.

We did one of these in elementary school. One day while I was back in my hometown, I remembered it and decided to swing by the school to see if they ever did anything with it.

The school was bulldozed.

[-] Kiwi_Girl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 1 year ago

They put the school rubble in the ground for people to discover in 50 years.

It's the gift that won't stop giving: asbestos.

You know what to do: drink water, eat healthy, lift weights, go swimming, quit social media, quit your stressfull job and find the little things that make you happy, you don't need much.

The lost season 4 script for the Last Airbender. We get to find out that Toph's kid is Sokkas

[-] drcobaltjedi@programming.dev 9 points 1 year ago

I'm still mad about how dirty they did Suki in TLoK. Not even a fucking offhanded mention.

Some guy 13 years before ATLA was aired

"Did you know Toph and Sokka hooked up?"

"...wut?"

"Yeah, after the fire lord is defeated and everything returns to normal, Toph admits to Sokka that she's wanted him ever since the bull moose event in book 3."

"WUT"

I still think about this capsule every few months. I remember when they sealed it. Items include a game boy and a cassette tape of music.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

Nickelodeon studios is gone. It's a blue man show now.
