I am convinced that NBC used to force Ed McMahon to do the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade for over a decade against his will as a practical joke on him and to see if he'd break down on live television

Yep - we've done the impossible (and/or ill-advised) and we've actually gone on and made a bunch of mashups which the band will hopefully not disown us for.
One of them is genuinely one of the best things we've ever done, we think. Want to judge? You know where to be.

Sorry we've been quiet. And no: it's none of your business.
What is important however is that we will be BACK in December with The ReSPRAYer, featuring all things remixed, remodelled and, er, removed from the @spraypopmusic.com catalogue, including a ton of Spray mashups from us!

I heard there was a Cohen song,
And all the Christians got it wrong,
But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?
‘Cause you see its about getting laid,
It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,
But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

Exclusive! An actual German person examines the "opera" in this week's episode....
I think it may be real lyrics?
I hear her singing „Und das will ich auch nicht“ (and that‘s not what I want either) and „Entschuldigung, oder es werde Sonntag“ (I‘m sorry/excuse me or let it be Sunday) but I may be over interpreting.
Even real Opera lyrics are hard to follow without reading along.

Having been pipped to the post by Dory Funk Jr. last year, Kendo Nagasaki has almost certainly set the record as the oldest male wrestler to ever compete, wrestling for LDN on 23rd November 2025 at the age of 84, 61 years after his debut match.

Told this many times but:
Barry Howard was one of the three top panto dames in the country for YEARS along with John Inman and Tudor Davies. All were paid well for doing dame duties for the best part of 25 years.
So to 2000. Barry has settled in Bournemouth and for the 2nd time he's in panto there

The cartridge version of NES Excitebike has a track editor, taken straight from the Famicom version. Save and load options are available in the menu, but will not work, as they expect the Disk System to be connected. The localisation team just forgot to remove them from the code.
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Happy Max Headroom signal hijacking day to all who celebrate.
#OnThisDay in 1987, Chicago TV was hit by the infamous Max Headroom signal hijacking.
A masked figure cut into WGN’s news, then Doctor Who on WTTW—rambling, distorted, ending with a bizarre flyswatter gag.
FCC/FBI investigations went nowhere.
The hijackers were never found. 📡👀
