    I honestly believe Millenials are the biggest suckers for nostalgia shit. It's a bit embarrassing.

    Have you seen Boomers with their Disney and Beatles memorabilia? Or Forrest Gump? I think nostalgia suckers are spread across generations. And it's not like you're gonna see nostalgia marketing for Zoomers because 1) they're like 25; and 2) they don't have any money.

    Is Gen X nostalgia even a thing compared with boomer and millennial nostalgia? We haven't exactly seen a Cheers reboot or a Happy Days revival.

    Frankly you sound a bit upset over something pretty silly.

    I wonder if part of it has to do with us being some of the first to really have things like home taping preserving the near-past in a more visual way. I also kind of think about the whole "promised a place in a society that ultimately ended up tearing itself apart rather than let us in" thing, too.

    They're a lot worse than Gen X, who don't get pandered a whole lot in comparison. You could tell by how so many sitcoms that Gen X have watched haven't seen a reboot or a revival or a cinematic universe. The A-Team basically got a movie in 2010 and that was it.

    Ehhh, Gen X alt and grunge culture is still a basic mainstay in mainstream bullshit. It's a different kind of nostalgia. Like there are a lot of genres, like reality TV, which are all just Gen X bullshit for the modern era.

    It's a Hexbear rule from when /r/vegancirclejerk was going to move over here en masse expecting a ban on Reddit, and didn't end up moving over. And also didn't get banned on Reddit.

    However, it did cause a whole bunch of people getting extremely mad at each other, and this was the compromise: vegan gang sticks to calling everybody else bloodmouth carnistremoved murderers only on their vegan communities, and everybody else is banned from vegan communities but adds content warnings to posts that talk about food. We have lived in harmony under these rules for many years now.
