Anyone remember this XBox ad?
Apparently it was banned, but I remember seeing it fairly regularly so it must've been around for a while before that happened...

Before he moved to the BBC, Graham Norton had a late 90s/early 2000s show on Channel 4, which (amongst other things) featured random shit off the internet.
I swear, half the weird internet stuff would be prefaced with 'So, Carrie Fisher sent me this email- '.
Edit: Youtube - Carrie Fisher & Graham Norton Search The Dark Web (NSFW)
Same here. The issue for me, I think, is that my feelings about music are the same as my feelings about chocolate; it's fine, but I don't see why everyone makes such a fuss about it.
My lack of interest in dancing is just an extension of that.
I did country dancing (essentially line dancing, but done in a circle and without the country and western theme) a couple of times at primary school in the 80s. I quite enjoyed that, but as you say, it was about following the instuctions and patterns rather than reacting to the music.
For people like this, money isn't a resource that they need to survive, it's just a way of keeping score.
It's like playing an idle game - you tweak the various settings and resources to get the most gain, and your reward is watching the numbers go up.
They're no more connected to the numbers themselves than someone sitting at their computer playing Realm Grinder.
We've only had it over here for about 10 years or so - Amazon started it and all the other companies jumped on the bandwagon.
Yeah, I'm running LineageOS with MicroG, so I tried disabling Android System Webview as a test. ReVanced seems perfectly happy to browse/play videos (though I didn't try logging out). The only apps I have that fall over without webview seem to be eBay and Amazon, so no great loss there.
Nothing recent that I can think of, so you get the kid-me version:
The BBC Chronicles of Narnia series from the late 1980s:

The Legend of Prince Valiant - 1990s

Gargoyles - 1990s

Gummi Bears - no not that one - the good one. The 1980s one sung by Joseph Williams from Toto (also singing voice of adult Simba in the original Lion King - which is a thing I didn't in any way just find out when checking his name. Nope.)
Gran Theft Auto - same as the original, but you play as an 86 year old woman named Mildred.
Andy Crush - dating sim.
Half-Lie - conman simulator
