A piece of missing media you consumed when you were very young, was extremely memorable and has left a lasting impression on you, but you cannot find it now no matter how much googling and asking people you do. You've tried for literally years and years, if not decades, to find this media, but you've not been able to find it at all.
The name of this phenomenon is inspired from one of the most high-profile searches for lost media throughout many years in the 2010s, when a man on a forum posted that for 28 years, he'd been looking for a short film, the "Clockman", he'd seen when he was 4 that he found to be extremely scary but had never been able to find or see again since. The search for the Clockman film gained traction and soon had hundreds, if not thousands, searching for it. After many years of searching and hundreds of dead leads, the film was finally found in late 2017.

"This story of two kids going really far underground I read when I was 5... I've never forgotten it, I've been looking for it for 20 years, I've never found it. It's my Clockman.

Get the Clockman mug.A small frog-shaped chocolate bar introduced to the United Kingdom in the 1990s.
This chocolate bar famously taught kids everything they need to know about inflation. Anyone born before 2000 may just about recall Freddos always cost 10p. The price was displayed brightly in big letters on the package. You'd always see them in the sweet section of any shop and try and find a loose 10p in your pocket to get your hands on 15 grams of chocolate.
But then all of a sudden, that big bold "10p" suddenly displayed "12p". And then it was 15p. Then 17p. Then 20p. 25p! 30p! Every time that big bold number increased, a part of your soul died and there was mass hysteria all over the internet.
What gives?! Has the chocolate mine started to run out of chocolate? Have aliens come to Earth and started stealing all the Freddos and they're in short supply?
Nope, you were just experiencing inflation. Through a tiny chocolate bar.

Kid: Daddy what does inflation mean?
Dad: You know how Freddo bars used to be 10p, then they went up to 12p, then 15p, then 17p, then 20p, then 25p, then 30p?
Kid: Ah I get it now.

Get the Foot mug.When you and a mate become close enough that you can gratuitously call each other a cunt as a joke, and neither of you are offended in the slightest.

Get the Cunt Barrier mug.A heavily-distorted unknown song, thought to originate from the 90s, that is supposedly recorded from a heavily damaged cassette tape. The origins are totally unknown, and are possibly just a recording of a local band jamming. The sound is far too distorted to make out any lyrics. The highly distorted sound, frequent glitches and mystery around the song make listening to the recording an incredibly creepy and unpleasant experience.

Get the gr8 m8 i r8 8/8 mug.A user on a chatroom or forum who, for whatever reason, decides they're a moderator or admin, even though they're not. These users will yell and scream at other users who they believe are breaking rules, telling them not to break said rules. They will often call on the real moderators and tell them how to deal with the supposed rulebreaker. These users are probably 10-15 years old and have a bit of a superiority complex.
These users think they mean well, but are actually just a giant pain in the ass and act as though the real moderators are incompetent. This often involves freaking the fuck out over the SLIGHTEST breach of the rules - or often when there is NO breach of the rules.
Often, the user is simply trying to get promoted to being an actual moderator. But what happens 99.9% of the time is that they get banned themselves. What is 110% certain, however, is that this user will NOT be promoted.
