Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Well, nostalgia doesn’t necessarily mean one wants to return to the past, or believes things were better back then.

It can be quite a simple as remembering certain things fondly, appreciating details about one’s past.

@Sunsy My mom is able to remember exact conversations down to the letter from decades past, while I can't remember any of my friends' names.

@Eel Alrighty, I've seen it many times with cartoon fans. Some just want to go back to old Nickelodeon, or old Cartoon Network, that's all. Will admit, I like streaming more than traditional channels, I can go about my day and watch shows whenever I want to, at my time. Something that wasn't a thing years ago.

@IceDomino Wow. Not specific conversations, but I always have a habit of remembering when certain things happened on certain day. I don't know why that even is.

@PrimeMaxDiscord Thanks lol

@Sunsy When I was a kid I wanted to be able to play My n64 and Gamecube all day. Now I have every game for those systems I ever wanted and I get to play them all the hours I want outside of work. I agree with you I like my life better now, but I still view the old days as good nostalgic memories. But again I like life now and would not trade it for anything!

@Scooby-Doo hello, long time no see! How are you out there, everything okay?

@Eel Im 26. I used to watch E3 Presentations on the Nintendo Channel on the Wii Growing up xD

@Princess_Lilly All is fine, yeah. How've you been?

@Arcata Indeed, there's nothing wrong with enjoying games and stuff from your childhood, or even discovering classics you missed out on (me and DOS games). Just thinking about it, some things are just better now IMO, and it's some things are better now than they were years ago. Even if shirts was a silly way of looking at it.

I prefer being able to stream shows at any time, rather than tune into a show at a specific time. Thinking about times I had to stop doing something just to watch something on TV. Just shows a modern thing that made life a bit better, I can do stuff and tune in anytime.

@IceDomino you cannot bring back the golden age by accepting that it's gone.

Feeling hopeful about the future is a super strong drug and we just want to feel it once more, even if for a while. Sadly it was gone in 2010.

@Scooby-Doo really well! Work's been hectic but I found some healthy balance.

I also managed to get my hands on a rare manga, Mermaid Melody from 2002, Japanese version, a real white crow.

And now I have craving for Sailor Moon after seeing you talk about it

Luca: Bleh, the smell is getting into my fur.
Anon: Fur?
Luca: (points to his three tails)
Anon: Oh.

@Princess_Lilly Nice to hear you're doing fine.
Also, don't think I've heard of that manga you mention, what's it about?

@Scooby-Doo it's a shoujo manga about mermaids who have to gather and summon a super mermaid to calm the seas. So in reality, it's like another magical girl series, they transform etc. but it's really good.

I love the artstyle too

@Princess_Lilly I think that I've seen that name before, actually, but I didn't know what it was. Is there a reason it's so rare?

@Scooby-Doo It wasn't as popular as Tokyo Mew Mew, Sailor Moon, or CardCaptor Sakura, I think.

So, how's death note manga?

@Princess_Lilly There's a manga i want but it's really expensive cause it's old and no one bought it

@EllaTheQueen6 what is the title of the manga that perplexes you so, seeker of paper solace

@Princess_Lilly I think it was called Fluffy Fluffy Cinnamoroll? Not sure though

Nice, we got a major sale on Steam!

...except for the fact that I don't own a PC.
