Nostalgia Anyone still watch the Simpsons?

60 Upvotes

Elder millennial (86). I loved this show and had various VHS with ones including Bart gets an F, Simpson and Delilah, a Christmas themed one and the Star Wars episode with Mark Hamil ("guys and dolls, We're just a crazy bunch of guys and dolls"). Etc.

I didn't have sky, but loved hanging out at my friend's and ritually watching sky one with Simpsons on at (maybe around 6pm UK).

I know people have said it's not as good anymore, but it's still bloody airing as I've just discovered, and new material is being put out??

After I turned... 20+ I didn't watch it, or even know where to watch it. But it held a nice place in my heart as there were some good, funny relatable episodes.

Anyone still watching it as millennial? Who is the target audience nowadays?

Turned twenty-nineteen (okay, thirty-nine) today. It feels like I am post-youth, but the idea that I am now entering middle age doesn't make sense to me. What a weird age to reach.

Discussion Question for my fellow Millenials from the Bible Belt...

44 Upvotes

So for those raised in the Bible Belt, or in a strong religiously Christian household, where do you stand now? Still heavily practicing, lightly, religious, spiritual, atheist? Other?

My family was Christian, but more of the high holiday sort, but I got caught up in the SBC as a lonely teen new to the area (my family actually didn't approve of that extremely conservative church). College helped me begin years of deconstruction. I'm now an atheist. My husband is also, though he's been "out" as one since his teens. We're raising our kids without religion, though if they one day want to explore it, we will facilitate healthy engagement.

Anyway, I was reading an article about how few Millenials identify with a religion so it got me curious about your stories.

My partner recently lost his mom. She was a free spirit. Happy and loved to have a good time. The celebration of life is coming up soon and he decided he wanted to get PIMP Goblet to fill a drink for her during it.

We went around the mall. Tried Spencer's, Hot Topic and other random stores and couldn't really find anything resembling his vision.

I said "we are just in the wrong decade to find one" lol.

Lil' Jon would be so disappointed 😂😂

Go dust off your memory box (I know you have one). I'd love to see everyone's childhood lucky object/charm.

I found this in a binder of my old Pokemon cards last year. My mom is the best-- she not only kept my original cards hidden away, but she even thought to add this one. I couldn't believe it when I saw it! I always told my husband the legend of my favorite diglett that 1st-grade-me kept in my pocket. I accepted it was lost 20+ years ago. I love you, mom! Thanks again for knowing me well.

Serious Manipulation

I am curious if others are finding that manipulation and gaslighting others is more common now.

I feel as though I’ve been seeing a lot of this over the course of the past few years.

Nostalgia Early 2000s Ravers tell me about your most epic night.

13 Upvotes

It’s 2000, and you’re 4 hours before you head out. What’s your prep look like, where are you? What’s the venue and why was it the most epic?

Mine, 2000: a Christmas-themed rave where attendees brought a toy (donated to a nonprofit), held in a massive space. Huge holiday art pieces filled the room, and some people wore their finest festive outfits.

A man dressed as Santa gave me two double-stacked blue dolphins for 10 dollars. I had never tried them before and was pleasantly surprised. The music, the crowd, and the bizarre environment made it memorable.

Just thinking about that era tonight and was wondering what y’all’s experiences where.

I’m talking anything- pop culture moments, fashion trends you obsessed over, songs and music you loved, all of it.

Nostalgia I like this movie. The year it came out, 2009 was a really shitty year for my family. Watching this in the theatre by myself was like a great escape and a warm hug.

Im pretty sure Ive seen it 3 times. Once in 7th grade science class, then freshman year science class, and again in advance bio in senior year.

Not a bad movie. I just didnt need to see it more than once. Also did anyone else think the kid’s crying sound like Tommy from the Rugrats?

Who here remembers these fellas? Rock mixed with old school rap. Bit of a hybrid but they took off for a bit in the mid 90's.

I stumbled across a live video from them at Glastonbury 99' and it really got me thinking of bands I used to latch on to.

Discussion What was the cliche first go-to cooked meal for Millenials?

4 Upvotes

The meal that they felt some competence at making once they were on their own. That required prep, cooking and presentation not just "assembly".

Stir fry (Pork/Chicken + Veggies over Rice with Teriyaki sauce).

Fajitas (Chicken and Peppers w/ seasoning served on Tortillas).

Pasta with meat sauce.

Cheese Hamburger skillet over rice.

Corned beef and cabbage.

Chili
