Weren't you JUST thinking to yourself, "Man, I would LOVE to get *NSYNC with Joey Fatone's earthly possessions"? WELL YOU CAN! Because Joey Fatone is reportedly selling the contents of his Orlando home in a serious estate sale this weekend. We're glad that in this instance, Joey is CHOOSING to say Bye Bye Bye to his belongings, as opposed to the heinous incident in which fellow *NSYNCer JC Chasez was nearly burgled -- had he not been such a badass.

Among the gems for sale are Joey's Death Star replica, some antique Disney memorabilia (guess you can't be a celeb in such close proximity to the Magic Kingdom without investing in a piece like this), full-size arcade games and -- our favorite -- Joey's Sword of Omens from Thundercats. (Joey, the fact that you even own a Thundercats sword pretty much confirms that God spent a little more time on you.)

But Joey Fatone's everything-must-go sale doesn't consist of just toys -- this I promise you. Joey's also selling functional, responsible adult things such as furniture, dishes, grilling stuff and even clothing. One lucky person will even be able to buy Joey's grand piano (though it looks like he doesn't wanna part with that *NSYNC DVD).

So tell us, Buzzworthy readers: Who's buying? Is it gonna be YOU?

It's Friday, it's the freakin' weekend, and it's also Flashback Friday, in which we revisit a forgotten video from the MTV video vault.

Sure, people like to call out the '80s as the decade so unapologetically garish they made the next decade look like a Vogue spread. But the '90s had some messed-up ish happening too. Mediatate on this: frosted tips, belly chains, ribbed sweaters, cargo pants and -- worst of all -- Pogs! Granted, there were no pogs in *NSYNC's 1999 music video for "(Thinking Of You) I Drive Myself Crazy," but there was, indeed, some very offensive '90s hair (and a cameo from Elisa Donovan of Clueless fame).

The whole "One Flew Over The Cuckoo Nest" theme -- a light interpretation of the song's title, to say the least -- is pretty funny. Padded cells, strait jackets and an insane asylum where the patients are all wearing enormous silk pajamas? It's very M.C. Hammer-sanitarium chic.

The video is pretty run-of-the-mill as far as music videos from the bubblegum pop explosion era go, but it's still unsettling to see things like Justin Timberlake with that weird haircut. He was by no means the only dude sporting damp, bleach-blond curls, but he was probably the most famous. And did Chris Kirkpatrick wear beaded dreads because that was how you showed you were "weird" 11 years ago? You just know A.J. McLean was rolling somewhere in Orlando, rolling his eyes the first time he got a glimpse of that.

Nevertheless, the boys did something right. Even Joey Fatone knew how to pout properly for all the clamoring girls who would have paid in blood to join the boys inside that enormous padded cell. And, eventually, they came out with "Gone," which was not only a mature step musically, but a peek into how Justin Timberlake would quickly become a sexy grown-up solo superstar devoid of all... wet curls.

Yes! That is Joey Fatone rendered as an angel draped in Christmas lights. You are not having some sort of hallucinogenic reaction to your lunch.

The above angel-Joey image, from this oldie-but-goodie post on Buzzfeed, documenting the most grievous acts of boy band fan art gone wrong, is an illustration (hawhaw) of the fine line between fan and fanatic. Here are a few of the more disturbing, inexplicable and weird artifacts:

Fan-made rendering of Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell.

I seriously just spent an hour of my trying to figure out the connection between Littrell and Luke Skywalker's sister. So at the very least, this one was thought provoking.

Other Backstreet pieces from this collection tend to go for the more celestial angle. For instance, Kevin Richardson as a baby-angel:

And the entire group as winged spiritual beings:

If you watch REALLY closely and very carefully, it ALMOST seems like Joey Fatone's hitting on the model in this behind-the-scenes video taken at an *NSYNC video shoot back in 2000 -- from the looks of Joey's Manic Panic red streaks, I'd say they were probably shooting the "It's Gonna Be Me" video. And I know -- Joey? Hitting on a pretty girl? Crazy, right? And so subtle!

Oh, and here's some knowledge for you, the girl in the video is model Kim Smith -- Tyson Ritter's longtime girlfriend. She was also in *NSYNC's "Bye Bye Bye" video and Maroon 5's "Wake Up Call."

Dodging and weaving through Times Square on a daily basis provides us with plenty of eye candy. This past week we've spotted the Naked Cowboy, Constantine Maroulis and … Joey Fatone, who was standing on a makeshift stage this morning causing screaming girls riding by on double-decker buses to almost fall to their deaths.

Joey must count his blessings every day for the much needed career boost that came from appearing on last season's Dancing With the Stars, leading him to host the popular primetime game show The Singing Bee. But despite being back in the public eye, he's smart enough to know that he should save every penny he's making because -- barring Justin Timberlake having a momentary lapse of reason and reuniting *NSync -- he could find himself back at the bottom of the food chain at any minute … which explains why he was right smack in the middle of Times Square praising Bank of America's "Keep the Change" service that automatically saves the leftover change from debit card purchases. We hope all those coins can buy back his dignity after shilling for the man. Cha-ching!
