Trying to find a clip that I think(?) is from Vinesauce watching a Mario Galaxy video

pretty sure it’s from Vinny but it’s a guy watching the The Quiet Sadness of Mario Galaxy video, and when the guy in the video says “there are black holes” vinny says “there are black people”

I have been trying to find this clip for like a week and it even autofills on google but nothing actually comes up

After months of seeing everyone post cool new Waterloo flavors, I finally got to try these two

stores in my area carry Waterloo, but none of them every carry any new flavors, and the nearest Aldi’s is about a 45 minute drive to Rocky Mount, NC. I was super excited for the Root Beer one especially, but the Melon really stole the show for me, I can see it replacing Tropical Fruit as my daily seltzer if it weren’t an hour and a half round trip every time I wanted it. after seeing everyone hype up the Root Beer one for a while on here I was dying to try it and I’m glad to say that it lived up to expectations. I was afraid it would be like the Liquid Death Dr. Pepper knockoff (tastes like I left a cup of Dr. Pepper with ice sit overnight, weirdly flat and watered down taste), but it tastes nothing like that! You get that initial hit of real root beer, but not too “sweet” like some seltzers can be. Hopefully stores around here expand their stocked flavors, has anybody had any luck asking stores to carry more flavors? I still want to try the Banana one and maybe even some of the other Flavortown ones but I can’t justify making a trip like that too often

Is there any professionally shot video from the 1979 tour?

rewatched one of the October 1978 Capitol Theatre shows last night, and while I do love this tour and have watched these two shows countless times, it made me realize that I've never seen any footage from the (superior) 1979 tour outside of shit-quality bootlegs from Zappateers. does high-quality footage exist from this tour? Or even like photographs? I love this set of photos from the Fall 80 tour, which we also don't have any well-shot footage of(?), but I've never even seen a photo set from 79. searching "zappa 1979" is pretty useless because of how much unrelated shit he put out that year

as a teenager listening to the Mothers of Invention albums, I would always skip Nasal Retentive Calliope Music, The Return of the Son of Monster Magnet, The Chrome Plated Megaphone of Destiny, and basically all of Lumpy Gravy. but now these are some of my favorites from the 60s, and part of that is how unique they are, there just aren't many other songs like these in his catalog, and this style is basically non-existent after the 60s. so do we know why he abandoned doing experimental tracks like those?
