I did magic back in college. Corporate events were the worst. They always want you to work some just-so story about teamwork or leadership or some HR nonsense into your act, some drunken manager always really wants you to do one of the bawdy tricks they saw you do at a bar with their mortified employee and gets belligerent when you refuse (not-as-obvious-as-you'd-think magician facts! we hire shills for those, that way they get to consent to being part of a bawdy trick in advance and it's a fun part of the show rather than sexual harassment), there's always the one guy who wanted to be a magician as a kid and doesn't understand why you won't sit down and talk shop with him while you're working, and everyone feels pressured to act like they're having fun because it's a work event so no one actually is. The pay is actually really good, I made $5k plus tips for a night's work once, but it's a miserable experience all around.

Panopticon. The US black metal scene was full of nazis pretty much from the start, and then Panopticon came along and now you see more RABM than NSBM. I'd love them for that even if their music wasn't great too.
Most Linux distros and FreeBSD worked out of the box on them back when you might otherwise spend weeks getting everything working. These days it's more unusual to find a laptop that that will take a lot of effort than won't, but Thinkpads got a lot of affection for being the laptop that wasn't more trouble than it was worth for a decade or so.
Funny enough, Generation X was the exception to 90s X-books having terrible art. Chris Bachelo can do no wrong.
