I didn’t even notice it was a zombie thread until someone on page 1 mentioned hearing Limp Bizkit on the radio. I then immediately checked the post dates. Frankly, I was surprised it was as recent as 2003. My guess was 1999.

My contribution:

The Cure: Pornography. “…I must fight this sickness, find a cure.”

Morrissey: Ouija Board. “The table is rumbling/The glass is moving/No, I was not pushing that time/It spells: S-T-E-V-E-N.”
