My replay is a cornucopia of music in every style!
A screenshot of Top Artists by Month from Apple Music Replay 2025. Each month has the same picture of the members of TWICE on a blue background. Next to each picture it says TWICE, as if you might be confused.

"Is this working?"
This is Unikitty from the Lego Movie. She looks like a Lego cat with a big square head and a purple horn. She has drawn-on glasses, collar, and tie. She is standing on a conference table giving a speech. In the seats around her are shiny silver robots, in sober hairpieces and dark blue suits. Their eyes glow red. The caption reads, "Business, business, business. Numbers."

There is some kind of a mismatch here...
Drawing of a menacing-looking black-haired boy in a hood, glaring against a backdrop of flames. He has a fireball in one hand and a trickle of blood coming from his mouth. There is a jagged, bold speech bubble on the top right, with dark emphasised text. It reads "I'M GONNA WORK DILIGENTLY..."

Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons, wearing a regrettably small pair of swimming shorts in bold colours, is doing a clunky dad dance on a stone bridge thing in an obviously-artificial hot spring with a painted mountain backdrop. He has a stereotypical cocktail glass with a bright blue umbrella in his right hand. Above him we can see the studio ceiling and a large vent of some kind.

What the hell is this meant to be, it looks like a dead caterpillar.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?
The cover of the David Bowie album Black Tie White Noise, which is mostly a rather close crop of Bowie's face, forehead to just above the chin.

We are now inside the production booth. The Simpsons look on glumly as the spotty producer talks into a landline phone, with a big smile on his face. He is saying "Yes, I am interested in long-distance savings. Veerrry interested."

The replies are going crazy! One reply! It's my best ever!
The Simpsons outside a production booth in a cheap-looking public TV studio. A spotty guy has just opened the door and is saying excitedly, "The switchboards are lighting up!"

Gomez?
A picture of Gomez the cat from High School Family. He has a flat, human-like face.

This is very funny, but those are pins? 'Pinhead'. Oh well.
The movie poster for "Withnail and I" (1987) which shows Marwood and Withnail out in the wilds. Marwood is sitting on the grass and Withnail is standing somewhat defiantly next to him. There is a Lament Configuration lying on the grass between Marwood's feet. Oh, and Withnail is now Pinhead the Cenobite from "Hellraiser" (1987). The title now reads "Withnails and I".

A crowd of dorks from The Simpsons, sitting on folding chairs in a store of some kind. The guy in the middle, whose shirt reads "Genius at work", is smirking and saying, "Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder!"

Felt that pic needed just a little something?

Is it just me, or does that lion look a bit like Kenneth Williams?
Kenneth Williams in old-fashioned business attire with bowler hat. He is pulling the 'camp surprise' face that he often did, with his eyes wide and his mouth pulled down.

Me at the end of the working day as I turn off my computer:
Former president George HW Bush sitting at a desk at a basement window, using an old typewriter. He has his hands raised in a typing gesture. There's a lawnmower next to him. The caption says: "(TYPING): And since I'd achieved all of my goals as president in one term there was no need for a second."

It took me a long time to realise that most people have the equivalent of a 'be friendly' button, whereas mine looks more like this:
Part of the interior of an old submarine. Off-centre is a periscope with an uncomfortable-looking wooden seat. To the right is a wall full of dials and hand wheels and pipes of many different sizes, all squashed together and lit by a single harsh bulb.

This reminds me of my performance review!
This is a photo of a laptop screen. It came out very fuzzy so I've smoothed it a bit so it's more readable. Completely black background, at the top is half of one of those spinning progress circles. White text underneath reads: "You're 3% there. Please keep your computer on."

Age verification

I remember when “B.J. and the Bear”, starring Greg Evigan as the lamentably-named B.J., was on TV. He was a trucker who travelled with a chimp, called “Bear”, for some unfathomable reason. Of course they solved crimes. In a huge, bright red eighteen-wheeler.
The front and part of the trailer of an eighteen-wheeler semi-truck. It is bright red, with a big white stripe down the middle.

A scruffy handwritten note fills a TV screen. The text reads: “Note: Poochie died on the way back to his home planet”

Every so often I remember the Nike Magneto sunglasses, which stayed on without arms - as long as you didn’t mind gluing magnets to your temples.
A very happy looking guy with his mouth open like he is saying “whoa!” He is wearing sunglasses that appear to be free-floating, if you ignore the large magnet glued to each temple.

And so I discovered this…
It is a giant skeleton, pictured towering over a house, wearing an old-fashioned blue bikini with a floral pattern and a blue bow on its naked skull.

Ryan North: There’s Certainly Nothing Linking Him to DB Cooper.
A statue of DB Cooper, clutching a satchel full of money and by complete coincidence a 2025 Hugo Award.

I think they’ve given her a bit of a MODOK vibe actually.
A composite picture with the headline “Cheltenham Literature Festival line-up announced” superimposed on the top. In the picture itself are some lazily photoshopped celebrities presumably illustrating said line-up; there’s Graham Norton, Richard Osman, Joanna Lumley, etc. They are all different sizes because getting identically-sized photos would be a moderate amount of work. For this reason Miriam Margolyes is a huge head floating frighteningly behind and above everyone else. In this picture I have replaced her hair and neck with the armour and floating chair of MODOK, the super-intelligent (and giant-headed) man-mind created by AIM scientists through the use of advanced mutagenics.

They *do* remind me of something.
A little boy from The Simpsons sits in a very uncomfortable school chair, rubbing his back in pain.

Amazon: YOU WANT A BAR OF WAX?
A chunky rectangular bar of disgusting-looking brown wax. It has ‘LIBERON’ in raised letters across its length.
