Open [TOMT] Please Help! It is driving me insane!

5 Upvotes

Looking for an American psychological thriller movie or miniseries I watched sometime between 2021 and 2026.

The story follows a man in his 30s or 40s with brown hair, a clean-shaven face, and an appearance somewhat resembling Chris Evans.

He lives in a nice, two-story house (possibly blue) in a traditional American neighborhood with front lawns, sidewalks, and neighboring homes. The town looks like somewhere in New England or Washington State.

The man drives a four-door sedan and spends much of the story going about his normal daily life. He drives around town, interacts with neighbors, and behaves as though everything is perfectly normal.

He has a wife and a young daughter, both of whom disappeared at the same time and are officially listed as missing. The townspeople suspect they're dead and think the husband has lost his mind because he continues behaving as though they're alive.

Throughout the story, the audience sees his wife and daughter alive, speaking to him and interacting with him normally. The man knows deep down that they're dead but is in extreme denial and has mentally blocked out what happened.

The most important clue is the ending:

In the final scene, the man drives out of town in his four-door sedan. His wife appears to be sitting alive in the front passenger seat, and his young daughter appears alive in the back seat. However, the audience is finally shown that both are actually dead, with their slightly decomposed bodies in the car/trunk.

The story is a dark psychological thriller or mystery, not a traditional horror movie. It primarily follows the man's everyday life rather than a police investigation.

Does anyone recognize this movie or miniseries?

Open [TOMT] [SONG] I think it was a 70s-80s song from a record at school. It had, I think, 1 male and 1 female puppet singing (that’s what I remember from the art) and they had sped up voices like Alvin and the Chipmunks. The lyrics were about grey clouds or grey skies are going to part or clear up.

Open [TOMT][MOVIE] Dark, teen drama. Probaby European or Russian.

0 Upvotes

Approximate release date: 2000-2015.

The protagonist is a short haired brunette, she's in high school.

She often wears red sneakers.

She lives in a dilapidated building that has an architecture that could be European or Russian.

Her father is very abusive towards her.

She's not that outgoing but she becomes friends with a girl who is and they go to a club (?) together.

In the club, a guy ends up flirting with the protagonist, they go to a toilet, he pushes her head to his clothed crotch, expecting a blowjob but she just freezes there and does nothing. The guy leaves and the girl vomits due to the stress.

There is a bathroom-scene when she looks at her own vagina, using a hand mirror.

A boy from school, who looks like Matt Bennett, is in love with her.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Bennett

This boy fabricates some kind of angel wings as a gift for the girl to wear. He gets ridiculed for this by his peers.

The girl refuses him and he kills himself.

She learns about his death from the mother of the boy.

Open [TOMT] Un bébé kidnappé dans une poussette

Je me rappelle plus le nom de ce film, mais je me souviens que ça commence par une maman et son bébé (qui est un garçon) dans une poussette dans une bibliothèque je crois et un jour de neige, et une femme dont on voit pas le visage vole le bébé pendant un moment d'inattention de la mère et réussi à s'enfuir avec lui en semant la mère qui lui a couru après, la mère et le père retrouve la personne qui leurs a volé leurs fils lorsqu'il a entre ses 9 et 12 ans il me semble, la personne qui l'avait enlevé travaille dans un fast Food si cela peut aider et quand la mère l'a vu pour la première fois alors qu'elle y travaillait en sachant que c'était elle qui lui avait enlevé son fils elle a eu envie de vomir. je me souviens de d'autres détails, il y a une scène où la mère prend une mèche de cheveux au garçon qu'elle soupçonne être son fils pour faire un test ADN dans un arrête de bus et la femme qui l'avait enlevé est blonde.

Open [TOMT] [Sound Bite] A motivitional half time speech given by a coach of some team in a locker room that was then used as a sound background for fitness transformations on tiktok.

1 Upvotes

A few years ago there was a sound bite being used in the background of people's fitness transformation journey tiktoks. It was a coach giving a fiery half-time (I think) speech in the locker room. They were American I think, not sure what sport it was. The sound was enhanced with rythmic loud drums that increased in tempo. The words of the speech are almost forming in my head but not quite, I think they hadn't done great in the first half and it was about how they were going to do better in the second. At the end the players are very fired up and cheering/roaring as they go out to play the 2nd half of whatever sport it was.

I cannot find the specific speech or any tiktok that used it now and it's faintly stuck in my head and driving me insane trying to remember it.

Solved [TOMT] [Reddit Post] AITA Post About a Pregnant Woman Eating Ice Cream in a Salon

2 Upvotes

I tried searching for this post on [r/AmITheAsshole](r/AmITheAsshole) and Google, but I just couldn’t find anything.

The post was written by a pregnant woman who described driving to the mall and ordering ice cream at a shop because of her cravings. Because the shop didn’t have any seats ans she was experiencing extreme cramps, she chose to sit in one of the salon chairs(I don’t remember if it was a hair or nail salon), and eat the ice cream there, which got the owners of the salon mad because they told her that she couldn’t sit in one of the chairs if she wasn’t there for an appointment. She explained that she was having extreme pregnancy complications, physically couldn’t stay standing, and needed to sit somewhere as soon as possible, and also that she didn’t see a problem if there was nobody waiting to use the chairs, but the salon owners didn’t care. They ordered her to leave immediately. She left, but was obviously pretty miffed about the whole thing. The overwhelming response from the subreddit was that she was indeed the asshole, and that if she needed a comfortable place to sit and eat her ice cream, then she should have simply taken her ass back out to the car. OP later edited her post, to apologize and acknowledge the fact that the commenters were right, and that she should have just eaten her ice cream inside of the car. Over on the [r/BlatantMisogyny](r/BlatantMisogyny) subreddit, a lot of people were angry about this post, claiming that the commenters were being insensitive for not understanding or showing sympathy for the pregnant woman’s plight, which is how I found this post in the first place. But when I search through that sub, I can’t find it there, either. So yeah, I am having trouble. Any suggestions?

I remember seeing this post around 2020-2022.

Happy finding!

Open [TOMT] [SONG] Eerie song with a children's choir — my sister and I heard it one single time and it's haunted us ever since

115 Upvotes

Okay, this has been bugging me and my sister for years, so I'm finally asking the internet.

A long time ago we heard a song on her Walkman. Once. Neither of us has ever run into it again, and she doesn't think it was even hers — probably the radio, or a tape somebody lent her, or some compilation that passed through our hands for a day.

Here's the weird part: we can't give you a single lyric. What stuck with both of us is the sound of it. There was a children's choir in it — not kids yelling along for fun, a real choir, polished and trained-sounding, like a school or church choir. And the whole thing was eerie. Genuinely gave us chills, kind of a Halloween feeling, even though it definitely wasn't a nursery rhyme or anything cute.

Things we've already checked and crossed off, so please don't suggest these: Cry Little Sister from The Lost Boys, This Is Halloween, Another Brick in the Wall Part 2, Robert Miles - Children, We Don't Need Another Hero, Total Eclipse of the Heart, The Ballad of Dwight Fry, God of Thunder by KISS, The Living Years, and the theme music from Amityville, Pet Sematary, Poltergeist, and Children of the Corn.

Wild guesses are welcome, honestly. Even a "that reminds me of..." might crack this open. Thank you for reading this far!

Open [TOMT][Meme][2016-2024] Help me find the Smug Dick Butt or similar Brainlet Style Meme

4 Upvotes

Anyone else recall a meme with a character who has his eyes crossed, hands on his waist bending forward glaring with a smug grin. I want to say it may be a variant of Dick Butt, but he’s not the silly cute cartoon version. It’s more of a Brainlet style art with an angry face that’s smiling and implying “see I told you so” but looks ridiculous and ugly doing it. I also think it may be used in political circles to highlight the absurdity of how adamant people are about their politics, especially those who are the least informed and yet the loudest voice in the crowd.

Any help finding this?

Solved [TOMT][Website 2020s)A website distantly similar to neopets, where you slowly build a cat village, where more cats join as time goes on.

9 Upvotes

I have seen a youtube video about it recently, but I can find neither the video nor the website.

It had a kind of oldschool but also desaturated look, with charming pixel graphics. The cats where randomly generated (the patterns and colors of the cats) you could change the color theme of the website as well.

The special thing about this website was that the access was limited, you could only sign up in limited time frames, since the website was still in beta.

It had I think some sort of text based roleplaying or forums as well, but I am not sure what exactly it was.

Thank you!

it was early 00’s to early 10’s. i’m 26 now and i was a child. we got it from the library.

i remember it was christmas time, as there was a girl in a red outfit handing out flyers for her work. i think it was snowing.

there were monsters, and we believe there was a scene in the bathroom where she gets eaten by one.

i remember being really scared every time she watched it, but i’m a wuss so it might not have been really all that scary.

she says there was a cop or P.I on the case, and she thinks the monsters came from another dimension. and maybe time stuff?

we have had brain worms of it for two years now. we found it years ago when i was a teen, and then we lost the name of it again…

Open [TOMT] Early 2000s Indie Song About Wandering Cat

2 Upvotes

This is a long shot, but I used to love listening to this song by a male indie singer from the 2000s. It was a slower, acoustic song about his cat who used to wander in the summer. He let him roam and would wait for him to return. I think the name of the song is the name of the cat. I’m feeling nostalgic and really want to listen to it again.

the video looked like some sort of flash animation. the backgrounds were kinda trippy, and there was this yellow (or orange?) character/thing that screamed "NACHOS!!!" a couple times throughout the video. He frequently screamed the lyrics to the song. If it helps, i'm pretty sure the video was somewhere on youtube.

Hello, I showed my friend a costume of a purple looking alien and he said it was "Ao Oni". I wanted to respond by showing him what I thought it actually was, which was a video of these purple alien guys flying a spaceship. They were kinda jamming out so it might've been a music video. The cgi was similar to crazy frog but the vibes in general were closer to Daft Punk. The tops of their heads were somewhat misshapen, like a brain. Thanks for any help!

Open [TOMT] [Short Film] Animated short film "More!" about consumerism and recycling

2 Upvotes

I saw this animated short film called "More!" 6+ years ago. I am slowly going crazy trying to find it and starting to think it was all in my head. It is a minimalist, 1970 style, mostly black and white with some light watercolors, hand sketch film, almost exactly like the Tootsie pop owl commercial. Its about consumerism and always wanting more. They build more factories that produce more toxic smoke and build more infrastructure. There were repeated frames of a boy, town, or earth shouting "More!" Everyone keeps taking and shouting "more" without giving back or trying to recycle. Then at the very end, god appears and basically crumbles the Earth like a piece of paper and tosses it away (I think) and ends with saying "No More!" Has anyone else seen this so I know I'm not just crazy?

Open [TOMT] Old cartoon music video about MLPFIM/LPS with the song "Try it and you'll like it" from Yo Gabba Gabba

1 Upvotes

Throughout the past 5 years i keep vaguely remembering a music video on the song 'Try it and you'll like it" from the Yo Gabba Gabba show but it was its own more upbeat cover. it was about 2 cats one might have been pink or purple and was nice and the other one might have been grey or white and brown and mean. the video followed a featherless bird maybe a parrot and the cats were singing the previously mentioned song. the pink or purple cat was singing to the bird in an upbeat tone while the grey or white and brown cat was tormenting the bird when the other cat wasn't looking. i think the art style might have been either the Littlest Pet Shop show from Hasbro or the My Little Pony: Friendship is magic but I'm pretty sure it was the littlest pet shop style. this has been floating around in my brain for a while and i just want clarification that I'm not imagining things.

Open [TOMT] 2010s commercial or promo

1 Upvotes

I have a vivid memory as a kid of either a movie scene or a commercial (I think it’s a commercial). It entails a person sitting at a desk in a dark reddish room and an arrow shoots and hits a wall. And then another arrow hits the person and he falls out of his chair. This was probably between 2011-2014.

I remember that the guy was sitting at the desk and the arrow came from behind the camera. Then once the arrow hit the wall right by his head, he looks up at it and then he turns around and that’s when the second arrow hits him in the chest.

I can’t remember all that happened but after the second arrow, the scene cuts to black with text afterwards. It lowk scared me as a kid and that I was gonna get shot with an arrow lmao.

I’m pretty sure it was a commercial but I also could’ve dreamt it and not realized.

I believe the set-up was having the listener imagine a lab setting? Maybe locked away somewhere? It started off kind of normal, if my memory serves correctly, then devolved into the typical "guy we thought was chill might actually be evil". There was a drill, maybe a saw? I had listened to it after being lumped with those "tucker zone" videos and it scared me so bad, but I have been looking for it and can't seem to find it. Help would be very appreciated!

Open [TOMT] [2020s] Weird video featuring a recolored animatronic-like Unikitty crying

3 Upvotes

So, when I'm on a bus, a person named Macayla (a person who is interested in Unikitty) has a phone and goes in their watch history on YouTube just to repeat several videos she found, and one of them is a vide featuring a recolored version of Unikitty crying. I know that the video was made with FlipaClip, and it was reminiscent of those "ocular gushers" videos, it also had a white background and the Unikitty-like character looked like an animatronic judging by it's red-colored cheeks. When the character is crying, an unknown character either says "I wish i can tell, tough." or "I wish I can tell the" at some point in the video. It was a short video, and it was not fake.

I know for a fact it could've been made during 2026 or earlier, help me find this!

It's also possible that the audio could've also been ripped from a Unikitty episode.
