On October 3, 1992, Sinéad O’Connor appeared as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live for the second and last time of her career. That evening, she performed two songs: her new single “Success Has Made a Failure of Our Home,” and an a cappella version of Bob Marley’s 1976 record “War.” At the conclusion of “War,” O’Connor held up a picture of Pope John Paul II, tore it to pieces, and yelled, “Fight the real enemy!” You can take a look at the footage for yourself below: SNL producer Lorne Michaels reportedly demanded that the studio’s “Applause” sign be turned off immediately after the incident, leaving the audience in absolute silence. The network reportedly received upwards of 4,000 com plaints in response and banned O’Connor from appearing on the show ever again. Everyone, from Catholic cardinal Bernard Francis Law to the Anti-Defamation League, also promptly condemned O’Connor’s behavior. After Her ‘SNL’ Protest, Sinéad O’Connor Explained the Pers...

While performing at the Punk Rock Music & Bowling Festival in Las Vegas on May 27, 2018, NO FX members Fat Mike and Eric Melvin joked about the Route 91 Harvest mass shooting that left 58 people dead and hundreds more injured. After Melvin suggested you don’t get shot in Vegas unless you’re in a country band, Fat Mike responded, “That sucked, but at least they were country fans and not punk rock fans.” Take a look at the footage for yourself right here: Stone Brewing, which created NOFX’s official beer, Punk in Drublic, and sponsored its music festival of the same name, quickly cut ties with the band over the incident, and NOFX was even dropped from the lineup of their own festival . A little while later, the group issued an apology on social media, writing, “There’s no place here to backpedal. What NOFX said in Vegas was shameful.” It went on to say, “We crossed the line of civility. We can’t write songs about how people in this world need to be more decent whe...

Released October 12th by developer Eye Blink Twice,  Time to Wake Up  blends dreams and memories into a potent cocktail of fear, offering an atmospheric psychological thriller for players to explore. After drifting off to sleep, Time to Wake Up’s main character , Alan, finds himself trapped in a dream he can’t wake up from. That’s unpleasant enough, except that’s not all. A voice drifts through the air like a sinister breeze, telling the player how much it likes their eyes, and not in a way that feels particularly complimentary.  Fortunately, the ocularly-focused voice seems willing to help Alan navigate this perplexing phantasmagorical maze. Although the voice doesn’t seem that happy to be here, it tells Alan that while he can get some shut-eye and pretend everything will be okay, it’s stuck in Alan’s “messed-up head.” Traversing memories through this dream’s twisting pathways exposes what made Alan’s head such a mess.  From a playground to a schoo...

Nothing beats your dog snuggling up with you in bed at night. Maybe you don’t let them in because you fear their midnight movements or heavy breathing will ruin your sleep. But a recent study in  PLOS One  by researchers at the University of Toronto and Duke University suggests you’re more likely ruining their sleep. Researchers strapped fitness trackers onto 25 humans and 38 huskies and malamutes over four weeks to measure who tossed and turned the most—dogs or their human bedmates. When a human and their pooch stirred in unison, the tracking data showed the person moved first 45 percent of the time. Dogs kicked off the disruption only 18 percent of the time. We humans are the fidgety sleep disruptors. Researchers Tracked Dogs and Their Sleeping Owners. The Humans Moved First More Often. What’s funny is that while about half of the participants complained in surveys that their pets ruined their sleep, especially the ones with multiple dogs, the sensor data showed th...

Scooby-Doo is one of the most recognizable IPs in entertainment, spanning generations. The various shows and films have woven themselves into pop culture in unique ways. Pamela Anderson played herself in the live-action 2002 film, but in 1999, Scooby-Doo paid homage to the most iconic found-footage horror film, The Blair Witch Project . The Blair Witch Project revolutionized the horror genre because it was the first of its kind to hit the mainstream. Instead of a polished Hollywood production, The Blair Witch Project had shaky handheld cameras and characters that felt like real people. It didn’t have a huge budget, but it proved that original ideas don’t need millions of dollars to work. The concept helped influence films like Paranormal Activity and Cloverfield . In 1999, Scooby-Doo spoofed the film by releasing The Scooby-Doo Project on Cartoon Network. It aired in segments on Halloween night during the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! marathon. The Mystery Gang M...
