A fantastic graphic novel written by Marjane Satrapi based on her experiences growing up during and in the aftermath of the Islamic Revolution in Iran. Also made into an equally great animated film.

Get the Persepolismug. Hilarious 1980 movie. After the navigator and both pilots are among multiple people on an airline heading to Chicago from Los Angeles that get sick from some strange foodbourne illness, a doctor and two flight attendants seek the help from everyday man Ted Stryker (the ex-lover of one of the flight attendants) who has trouble just going near a plane since he made what he believed to be a bad move during an airstrike in the Vietnam War.
The movie is known for it's very random humor (i.e. a group of reporters is getting info about the crisis when one of them says "Okay boys, lets get some pictures". They then walk over to a wall with framed photographs of airlines and randomly start taking them down and walking out the door).

Get the Airplane!mug. The NBA's equivalent of the Black Eyed Peas.
Once a very respected and talented player. The longtime leader of the once-lowly Cleveland Cavaliers, actually leading them to successful playoff runs, even bringing them to the finals in 2007, though they lost to the San Antonio Spurs. During this time he was on par with basketball legend Michael Jordan, even taking his number 23 as a sign of respect. However, all the success and fame went to his head and convinced him that fame and money were more important than talent and respect. When his contract with the Cavs expired at the end of the 2009-10 season, Lebron used all the damage that fame did to him and decided to sign with the already dominant Miami Heat. They made it to the finals that year, but fortunately the Dallas Mavericks beat them, giving Lebron a reality check

Get the Lebron Jamesmug. One who at one point identified as a traditional hippie, sharing the same viewpoints on politics, culture, sex, and drugs, but have since cleaned up and taken up normal lives. While most ex-hippies remain politically liberal on most issues, their views tend to be more to the right than their views in their hippie days, while several take more conservative approaches to the drugs they once did, especially involving their own children.
For most ex-hippies, the same bands they liked back in the day remain with them. More often than not it remains the only thing about them that doesn't change.
