        That’s less offensive than calling them a punk band

              I was half joking, but some of Miley’s stuff does have a punk rock vibe to it.

              100% forgot about this song:

              SWMRS-Miley https://youtu.be/qgigqKtyJv4

              Also, curious what genre you would call the album, Dookie then? I didnt listen to much of greenday except for Kerplunk and Dookie.

                Pop-punk. Imo it’s too mild and overproduced for a proper punk album.

                  well yeah, punk is not punk rock, nor pop punk, or hardcore punk, or ska punk, or the other 100 punk versions out there.

      You’re close:

      The toyline expanded into a franchise with a comic book series, two direct-to-video animated cartoons, and a video game for the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, and Commodore 64.

        I looked into it more, and it looks like theres also a more recent YouTube channel with a lot of videos (animated and live action) from about 8-9 years ago.

        Did the Spectrum and Amstrad have much of a presence in the US, or was the game made for the UK market?

          I mean I can say that on MobyGames every listed review (keeping in mind this is user-generated content and could be biased) is from a UK magazine, that they only have the UK box art, and that the listed releases are all from the UK. I’d err on “UK-exclusive” given that circumstantial evidence.

      I don’t know how to switch accounts and fucked up my wife’s entire persona she was building by commenting under her account. Instead of deleting the comments when I realised my mistake, I instead just switched accounts and left those comments there for her to find when she woke up. I claim to have planned to go back to delete them, but instead I was just gonna completely forget about them.

      I am so smart 🤓

    I thought they were awful then, I reacted badly to their existence. And, 40 years later, take efforts to write this comment to express my displeasure; which gives me satisfaction.

      40 years too late to drive sales with your disapproval.

      Remember Garbage Pail Kids cards? Once I saw concerned parents burning them on the local news, I had to get them.

      Very early on in our relationship - long before she was my wife - I played this game with my wife. I didn’t know it was part of a media franchise at the time.
