Nostalgia Topic!

So when will people start feeling nostalgic for the 2000s or 2010s?

Already have.  Been nostalgic for music from the early 2000s as well as video games.

Gosh, I miss it when literally every ad had such catchy songs.  That Radio Shack song is a real hit.  It hits ALL the right notes to be catchy.  This stuff wasn't THAT long ago, but it's getting further and further each day.  It was such a simpler and dare I say, better time.

Kmart

^ Those songs are too catchy for their own good.

Oh my gosh, WISHBONE!  I never really watched it, but I remember the theme song.  Reminds me of things like Clifford, Kipper, or those Beethoven the dog movies.

Those are way better then they have any right to be.

I'm rocking out to a Kmart ad from before I was born... lol.

Remember party stores like Party City?  Well soon you will be only remembering them.  Party City just filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy.  It might not be long.  Those aisles full of costumes, various colored balloons and party supplies,  Silly plastic toys, all that might be disappearing.  So go get some nostalgia at them before they are gone for good.

I liked it when the color coordinated certain sections of the stores with colored items of said color.

I remember the massive bulk candy section too, mostly all the candy's you'd never wanna buy.   Hard candies and gummy stuff. lol.  Gimme the chocolate! 

If their restricting works out, they can still exist as a company, but I feel they would need to cut a massive footprint with so many stores.  Cut many, and downsize the stores themselves.

I don't get why people would buy stuff from those stores when all these party supplies could be bought at the dollar store for literally a dollar.  Plus Walmart and Target have party supplies cheaper.  Party City never made sense to me.

Nostalgia me!

So I was chatting with Google Gemini (after I just made one of my famous Saturday morning cartoon
blog posts, and the subject of Paulina Gillis, a.k.a. Tabitha St. Germain, came up.  Whenever a nostalgia nut like myself speaks of most any cartoon of the eighties and ninteties, chances are she, Tara Charendoff (later Strong) or Alyson Court played a part in it--The Three Divas of Canadian animation, I've dubbed them.

Note whenever Rarity gets overtired or really upset, her posh accent slips a touch and she whines just like Kootie Pie or ALF's baby sister. The poor dear's development is more arrested than [here the author of this post makes a rather ethnically-insensitive comment that might have been fine back in 1994 but most certainly is not acceptable in 2026; he is sent to a sensitivity camp=slash-reeducation center for six months, whereupon he returns to finish this post]

Ugh, it'll take a while for me. Not the most stellar time for me, what with a mountain of rejection letters from publishers, a string of lousy jobs, failed relationships, high (for the day--1.50/gal) gas prices, and the ascension/election of Barack Obama.  And let me tell you something else, me buckos--      [here the author of this post is whisked away and returned to the reeducation center to learn more sensitivity skills]
