Looking for one of the parodies of the “Scary Rocking Chair” video (Green room)

• Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm looking for an old parody of the “Scary Rocking Chair” (Green Room) video that I came across as a kid in the late 2000s.

First, I want to mention that I saw this video on a feature phone belonging to a girl I knew, back when I was still living in the post-Soviet region. I already tried asking the Russian Lost Media community about it, but unfortunately I didn't get much of a response.

To briefly describe the video: it started with a static shot of a room during the daytime. After about two seconds, the room suddenly became dark and switched to a green night-vision effect.

What I remember most is that the camera showed almost the entire room (unlike the original video), and the rocking chair was off to one side, farther away from the camera, rather than in the middle like in the original. I can't remember whether it was on the left or the right, unfortunately, but I distinctly remember it being off to the side and farther away.

Then there were various sudden sounds coming out of the silence: a cuckoo clock, a small ball rolling across the floor, a cat, and the rocking chair moving. However, unlike the original, the jumpscare didn't happen immediately after the rocking chair moved. It appeared completely unexpectedly.

And here's the main problem: I never actually saw the jumpscare. I vaguely remember it possibly being a clown or a man wearing a top hat, but I'm not sure at all - I only caught a split-second glimpse of it. What I definitely remember is the scream/jumpscare sound, which scared me so badly as a kid that I literally ran to my family in panic.

That's basically everything I remember.

I've tried searching for it on other popular post-Soviet websites and communities, but unfortunately I haven't found anything similar.

Has anyone here ever seen a video like this, or remember a parody of “Scary Rocking Chair” with these details ?

Looking for Photos, Fight Footage, Programs & Stories About My Father, Professional Boxer John Balla (1938–2011)

• Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm hoping the Reddit community, especially boxing historians, collectors, and longtime boxing fans, might be able to help me uncover some of my late father's history.

My father was John Balla (May 15, 1938 – January 22, 2011), a professional boxer who fought from 1958 to 1975.

Unfortunately, I don't have any photographs of my father from his boxing career. I'm trying to piece together his life, preserve his accomplishments, and hopefully find photographs, videos, newspaper articles, fight programs, or even personal stories from people who knew him.

I would be incredibly grateful for anything anyone might be able to share.

What I Know About My Father

  • Name: John Balla (possibly appeared as Johnny Balla)
  • Born: May 15, 1938, in California
  • Died: January 22, 2011
  • Associated hometowns: San Francisco and Stockton, California
  • Professional boxing career: 1958–1975
  • Division: Primarily light heavyweight
  • Professional record: Approximately 25 fights; historical databases differ slightly on his exact record
  • Amateur boxing: Reportedly won the 1957 California Golden Gloves championship at 165 pounds
  • Other connections: He also spent time in New Orleans, Louisiana, during his boxing career.

Two Major Boxing Events He Participated In

  1. Muhammad Ali vs. Buster Mathis — November 17, 1971

Location: Houston Astrodome, Houston, Texas

My father fought Roy Wallace on the undercard of this event, which was headlined by Muhammad Ali and Buster Mathis.

I'm especially interested in finding the original event program, promotional photographs, footage of the preliminary fights, newspaper coverage, or any photographs of my father from this event.

  1. Joe Frazier vs. Terry Daniels — January 15, 1972

Location: Rivergate Auditorium, New Orleans, Louisiana

My father fought Walter White in a scheduled six-round bout on the undercard of Joe Frazier's heavyweight championship defense against Terry Daniels.

Available boxing records indicate that my father defeated White by knockout.

I recently found an image of the original fight program, which lists:

JOHN BALLA — New Orleans, Louisiana vs. WALTER WHITE — Tampa, Florida

Seeing my father's name printed on an actual heavyweight championship program was incredibly meaningful to me.

I'm attaching that image to this post.

Other Known Fights

I'm also hoping to locate information about these recorded bouts:

  • March 1960 — Ocie Salmon, Richmond, California
  • February 10, 1972 — Harold Glaspy, Baton Rouge, Louisiana
  • June 20, 1972 — Bill Hardney, Baltimore, Maryland
  • April 21, 1975 — Ernie Smith, Dallas, Texas
  • May 20, 1975 — Clarence Morris, Orlando, Florida
  • June 24, 1975 — Boyd Edwards, Orlando, Florida
  • July 8, 1975 — Bobby Walker, Orlando, Florida

His recorded professional debut was May 8, 1958.

What I'm Hoping to Find

Photographs: Boxing portraits, weigh-in photographs, training pictures, Golden Gloves photos, newspaper photographs, promotional images, or candid pictures of him outside the ring.

Videos and recordings: Any footage of his fights, undercard broadcasts, news coverage, training sessions, or interviews. Even a few seconds of footage would mean the world to me.

Original boxing memorabilia: Fight programs, posters, tickets, promotional materials, newspaper advertisements, boxing magazines, scorecards, or anything listing John Balla.

Newspaper coverage: Articles about his Golden Gloves championship, fight announcements, results, interviews, or stories about his boxing career in California, Louisiana, Texas, Maryland, or Florida.

Personal stories: This is especially important to me. Did anyone know John Balla personally? Did he train at your gym, work with a family member, or spend time in your community? Do you remember seeing him fight?

I'd love to hear anything about the person he was outside the ring, too.

A Few Questions for Boxing Historians and Collectors

  1. Does anyone have access to photographs or archived records from the 1957 California Golden Gloves championships?
  2. Are complete undercard recordings known to exist for the 1971 Ali–Mathis or 1972 Frazier–Daniels events?
  3. Were professional fighters commonly photographed for boxing programs during this period, and where might those portraits be archived?
  4. Does anyone collect original fight programs from the Houston Astrodome or Rivergate Auditorium?
  5. Are there boxing photographers, promoters, trainers, or journalists from this era whose collections might still exist?
  6. Does anyone remember John Balla fighting in Stockton, San Francisco, New Orleans, or elsewhere?
  7. Are there boxing archives or private collectors who specialize in lesser-known professional fighters from the 1950s–1970s?
  8. Can anyone help verify his 1957 Golden Gloves championship or reconcile the conflicting professional records?

Why This Matters to Me

My father passed away in 2011, and I have been trying to learn more about his life and boxing career.

It's difficult knowing that he competed during such an extraordinary era of boxing, including on events featuring Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier, yet I have so little visual history of him.

I'm not looking for anything valuable in a monetary sense. I'm hoping to recover pieces of my father's life that I can preserve for myself, my family, and future generations.

Even one photograph of him would be priceless to me.

If you have anything, remember anything, or know someone who might, please comment or DM me.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and for helping me keep my father's story alive.

I have searched for photographs, videos, boxing programs, newspaper articles, and historical records of my late father, John Balla (1938–2011), who was a professional boxer from 1958 to 1975.

So far, I've researched his BoxRec boxing record, Ancestry family records, historical newspaper references, and information about two major events where he competed:

  • November 17, 1971: Muhammad Ali vs. Buster Mathis, Houston Astrodome. My father fought Roy Wallace on the undercard.
  • January 15, 1972: Joe Frazier vs. Terry Daniels, Rivergate Auditorium, New Orleans. My father fought Walter White on the undercard and reportedly won by knockout.

I've also found an image of the original 1972 fight program listing my father's name, but I have not found an actual photograph or video of him.

He reportedly won the 1957 California Golden Gloves championship at 165 pounds.

I'm hoping someone might have photographs, original fight programs, archived footage, newspaper clippings, or personal memories of him. I'm particularly interested in anything from California, New Orleans, Houston, or his Golden Gloves years.

Any leads to historical archives, collectors, or people who knew him would mean so much to my family.

Missing titles from the Chinese Native 32 DVD game system.

• Upvotes

searched - I've searched on sites like Abandon Shareware, the Internet Archive,
the Wayback Machine, the backup of their website in Chinese and English, and even under every rock. y que menos exito debido a las barreras del idioma en bilibili.com

Native 32 was a Chinese gaming system that came bundled with DVD and other media players. The games, aimed at children, featured colorful graphics and simple gameplay. They were typically bilingual and could be downloaded from the web.

Because of the recent Native32Emu emulator, I'm looking for/trying to find the complete set of games. I currently have a disc NES_DISC V2 (V3.0), with most of the games and additional games, among the most recent ones they created; Baseball.7z, girl time show.7z, Travel Monopoly.7z, and AllGame070927.rar pack of games in English

Encontré también en archive, estos paquetes, que básicamente tienen los mismo juegos arriba publicados: native-32-games-v3.0, native32-en, all-game-070927

I haven't been able to download this backup from pan.baidu pswd: 6666, but it contains the same games as the RAR file.

But there are still a few missing—the ones I'm looking for:

Available for download from the website:

  • Citymaster.
  • Comic Fighter.
  • Fights Landlord.

And another 10, which were included on a CD with Philips DVD players.

  • Basketball.
  • Bubble.
  • Football.
  • Why?
  • Mole Hunting.
  • Pong.
  • Pair Match.
  • Puzzle Tetris.
  • Snowball Fight.
  • Water Park.

As for the web downloads, I don't have any games in Chinese; I suspect they're the same as the English version.

Here are some pictures of the albums I've found online:

Interestingly, the V3.0 version comes on two discs, and I only have one; maybe the other games are on the disc I'm missing.

Although I suspect they might be on this V3.2 disc and, obviously, on the Philips GAMES disc (On the right, this one has 10 games).

I would appreciate any help or links that might help me find them.

I saw these screenshots years ago. Someone had posted them with the caption “never deleting this app” or something. The four screenshots roughly said this:

- User 1: Guys will say they’re freaky in bed and all they do is eat ass
- User 2: [quote replying something horrific like:] imma nut in you suck it out and feed it back to you
- User 3: [quote tweeting User 2] lock him up and throw away the key your honor
- User 2: [selfie of him in a prison cafeteria] literally am in jail rn

I think about this exchange maybe once a month and could never find it, but i’m certain someone out there has it screenshotted. I remember i had it bookmarked on Twitter but it must’ve been deleted since then.

Heya,

I've been to Scotland in 2023 and have bought a scarf from Inverness. I lost it and wanted to buy it again, but I cannot find it anywhere.

Background: I bought it at the Highland tweeds Inverness from one of the table in the middle of the shop.

From my card expenses, I have paid 15 pounds to this shop.

I don't have an exact picture of the scarf, only some part of it (ignore my ugly ass face pls), but I can help with some examples I found online

picture 1 + 2 : My scarf (For the life of me, I cannot find a photo with a tag on it)

Picture 3 : a MASSIVE portion of the tag (kidding)

Picture 4 : This scarf from Dunedin Cashmere is very close in the blue color, but it has a strap of white in it, which I'm sure mine didn't, my purple is a bit deeper, and it's missing the pink

Picture 5 : This scarf from Heritage Of Scotland Tartan (I think) is very close as well in the pink. but once again, no white strip

I would be very grateful if anyone could help me find a website that sells it, as I'm not planning on returning to Scotland that soon (unfortunately tho)

Ancient Lego Minecraft Build Guide App

THERE IS NO MENTION OF THIS ANYWHERE. It was an old iOS app maybe android too idk. It was a building guide for LEGO Minecraft–themed builds before it was officially licensed, showing step-by-step instructions for custom builds. The app icon was an enchantment table out of Legos. I believe it was on the App Store sometime in the early-to-mid 2010s, but I don't remember the developer or exact name. Does anyone know what I’m talking about it has to be on someone’s old device I had just redownloaded it and then lost it and can’t pull it off a backup file. But it’s not on any App Store or Play Store now.
