She was one of the biggest television sex symbols of the 1980s.

An ode to boot-up chimes, digital witchcraft, and the comforting sound of a childhood that didn’t know it was ending all too soon. By Willa J. Rabideau There are few things in life as comforting as walking into a house filled with the smell of freshly baked bread or chocolate chip cookies. That smell does something to the human brain. Something primal. Something suspiciously close to witchcraft. Suddenly, you’re eight years old again. The world is safe, someone loves you, and the greatest existential threat in your immediate future is…

By @GIJoeRepairShop On August 6, 2026, this author published an article titled “‘Weird Al’ Yankovic: Bigger & Weirder 2026 Tour.” At that concert, there was one particular song that was new to both me and my spouse. That song was “Stop Forwarding That Crap to Me.” As we listened to the lyrics, we felt that it embodied everything wrong with modern email systems. Even through the song was released in 2011 as the last song on the “Alpocalypse” album, it maintains its relevance today. This says a lot about the…

By Serpentor’s Lair | October 13, 2026 There was a time when Tuesday nights meant something special to every Gen X kid growing up in the 1980s. You hurried through dinner. You finished your homework, or at least convinced your parents you had. You grabbed your favorite snack, found your spot on the living room carpet, and waited for the clock to hit eight. Because on NBC, Tuesday nights meant one thing. THE A-TEAM! The A-Team became one of the most unforgettable action-adventure television shows of the 1980s. There was…

SIGOURNEY WEAVER: The Queen of ’80s Sci-Fi — Ripley, Zuul and the Gen-X Sex Symbol Who Changed the Genre There is a reason a generation can hear the name Sigourney Weaver and immediately picture steam rolling through a steel corridor, the warning lights of LV-426, or a Manhattan apartment glowing like the doorway to another dimension.
