why can you no matter how hard you try physically and mentally reach the nostalgia? why cant things now feel as good as that moment? i can look at an image of the old internet but i cant go back there because it no longer exists.anyhow, post shit that is nostalgic to you.

I searched on my harddrive but couldn't find the "days go by and still i think of you" nostalgia video :-(

>>5920738Why do all you zoomies think that the old internet was full of goth and emo fags. Stop living off second hand nostalgia
>>5921233Only goths and emos are obsessed with their own past and childhood you retard. Normies, non-subcultured or jocks moved on with their life, have stable jobs and a family. This has nothing to do with whatever latter generation that lives rent free in your head, retard.
I remember this time when that fatass guy ranting and shoutout fuck you many times.
>>5921780core faggots are cringe af
>>5921273You mentally ill faggots are obsessed with a subculture that you see videos about online, and have convinced yourselves that they had cultural staying power. They didn't. They were mocked and bullied and became the transfags you fap to on /gif/Get help.
>>5921912> obsessed with a subculture that you see videos about onlineYou know half of this place is in their 30's right. Not everyone is a child like you. We didn't see it online, we actually were there when all these subcultures were a thing. Sure they were cringe but that's just being young and that's ok.Although I was never in the "emo scene" myself, I defenitely thought they were hot and fapped away, so yes seeing thel back brings nostalgia, what this thread is about.
>>5915257replying to a post that's several months old just to say:>you weren't there>you wouldn't know

>>5933504this one was really boring and i never finished it. also sponsored by timex (?) or some other gay sports watch thing.played them as they came out:1 - on saturn. classic.2 - on pc. really good, them creepy underwater levels, oil rig vibes, wierd chinese floaty men on those other levels... yeah cool.3 - on pc. i know it got hate at the time but i enjoyed it.chronicles - on pc. was entertaining.last revelation - on pc. no. you're just in the same boring theme all the time hence why i didn't finish.angel of darkness - on pc. lol what an experimental shitshow. still played it till the end.then there were some anniversary things or whatever (pc - can you sense a pattern), can't remember the names of them but damn lara was fit in those. think i even got some nude mods.never played any of the nu-raiders where she's young or whatever so i can't comment on those.fanx 4 reedan my tomb raider review blog x0x
>>5933918that babby is somewhat correct but clearly hasn't learnt nuance yet.you can be many things at many times. you can be in the present yet still have fond memories to look back on.what's the problem if i 'member cool shit from the 80's/90's? i can't help having those memories but i don't dwell on them, you just remember and carry on. old friends, gfs, etc, relationships or whatever that had their alotted time like ships passing in the night. doesn't mean i want to live in those decades again - they had their own problems - but it's fun to remember cool stuff as it is fun to experience new stuff and meet new people.you can't avoid memories but you don't dwell on them and get all depressed or whatever as this vid implies.tldr: stfu preachy babby
>>5933918What if I'm nostalgic because the ones I've lost have all passed away? Invalidates this entire point. Yes I could go form new connections, but I'm not interested in that.
I've got a lot of fond memories of [as] when I was a kid. There was something so special about staying up late, reading and listening to the bumps, watching cartoons and anime that I had never experienced, etc. It felt like it was a hideout for all the people who lived in the midnight hours, different from the rest of the world. Made me forgot about all the problems that daytime brought me.
>>5934081>It felt like it was a hideout for all the people who lived in the midnight hours, different from the rest of the world.yeah man, i know this feeling. still why i'm a night owl to this day, old habits die hard.you've reminded me, i remember in the 90's when i was 14/15 chilling in the tv room with tins of beer (boddingtons/caffreys/john smiths - haven't seen caffreys in ages) and watching "the adam and joe show" while the rest of the family was upstairs asleep:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWtQW8vAslc
>>5934783damn, '96 and we already had a paki/nigger problem. i wasn't a townie so i wasn't exposed to them much at all back then except via tv. and '96 was just before blair (bleurgh) got in and truly opened the floodgates for the turd-worlders

>>5920738him join me in death? sounds like it
>>5920738You can tell this video was made by someone born in the mid to late 2000s and didn't actually live through the 2000s, most of these types of zoomers are absolutely obsessed with y2k/2000s "aestethics" and shit like "big brother core" and just add "core" to the end of everything in general, pretentious y2k larping zoomers are the worst.
>>5923583i spent a shit ton of time at the hundreds of nightly rock shows around Southern California around the 90s and early 2000s, was extremely fed up with them, the goth chicks were always alright though, not as annoying. Goth chicks at least would just shut the fuck up and chain smoke. Scene girls were always just as noisy as valley/barbie/yada yada uppity bitches but they thought they were unique for god knows why.

>>5925575I bullied the girls too
>>5927953>>5929086isn't this just a sped up techno remix of A.T.C - Around the World?
>>5914895Duuuude that fucking song i forgot about thatI love being white
>>5921273>Normies, non-subcultured or jocks moved on with their life, have stable jobs and a family.Not all of them, some of them still cling on to their highschool football days, you clearly don't know very much about life in general. It really just depends on the person. >>5921912Emo/scene is still alive and well in the current year, it just evolved and changed a bit, which happens to every single subculture over the years. The fact that MCR and countless other emo/alt bands from the 2000s have all gained new found fame should be enough to prove this to your retarded ass.

>>5942034>>5944100also i know this is wsg so it wouldn't be appropriate to post it directly here but does anyone remember/have a link to the nsfw tnmt thing called something like "tnmt tijuana bibles"?it's a short (badly) animated vid. one of the turtles goes "hey april, don't cut me no slack" and she's riding him and has nunchaku in her arse and they're spinning. it ends with crang sucking someone off and he goes "come in my mouth".haven't seen that video for fookin years, think i originally saw it on somethingawful after the turn of the millenium.

>>5945870or you could be me, and watch my father sink into a depression after paying a computer guy to upgrade the family computer from XP to Win7, and he formats the entire hard drive from 2002-2009.I know that it's something that upset my dad until he died.
>>5946078maybe your dad shouldn't have been such a retard
>>5946078>vidi really didn't like xps cartoonish ui when it came out. yeah yeah i know you could use programs to change it completely but i will always prefer/miss windows 98 se because it just looked fine and functional out of the box. no stupid rounded corners on the windows etc.but xp was ok, 7 was great and then it all went to shit (thanks patel, you guys really do adore shit don't you) so in retrospect and compared to todays offerings i am somewhat fond of the xp days.
Why are y’all cursing each other under this post LMAO?? Nostalgia is a good thing
>>5946395Before Win 8, all you had to do to go back to the Windows Me/2000/98/95 era theme was to just choose the classic theme in XP, Vista and 7.They even took that away from the people prefered it.
>>5946078zoomers vehemently said this aesthetic never ever existedthey can't fathom that once we saw technology in a positive matter, we were going into a new era (or what felt like it) but now it's just a spiral downwards
>>5946404it's a good feeling, but it is also easy to get trapped in
>>5946482It's funny because you are right. I remember Frutiger Aero a lot and how everyone truly did believe with Youtube and various other Technology things we were going to be living in the future and Technology would make us happy again. Sadly I think the issue is just that everything is so flat and minimalist with no gloss and colorful backgrounds that it makes it feel like it's on a downward spiral.
>>5945847a board on altchansyou should look it up
>>5946512it’s literally the 1950's all over again
>>5946512No, it's not just flat and minimalism. It is that technology has not helped us as much as we thought, it has trapped us. We didn't want mass surviellance, we didn't want absolute degradation of morality and full-on decadence, we didn't want us being replaced through AI, we didn't want lack of purpose in life thanks to over-consumption, controlling our lives and forgetting life.All which has been brought through technology by malicious hands. There are many good things about it, but it has been overshadowed by negatives

>>5948485chris cunninghams videos were great back in the day. think the first one i saw was on mtv - windowlicker i believe.also there was some thing where you run the come to daddy track through some kind of audio analyser or something? and it shows the face that you see in the tv screen from that video.cool shit. creative. cursed
>>5948485also full vid for you if you don't know it. well worth a watch - i know i check it every few years:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ827lkktYsprobably a bit cliché to post rubber johnny but that's also a classic so look it up if you want.

>>5914889I'm a newfag and I feel nothing but contempt at seeing this. I had a friend who was younger than me who somehow managed to find this site at the age of 13, I've probably written more posts than he has, made more oc, I switched to linux and learned Japanese, whereas he did none of those things in all that time and his homeboard is present /b/, one of the worst most low iq boards on the site.But he's more welcome here than I am just because he happened to find the site first, probably through an older sibling or something. I know for a fact he contributes little, because he can't spell properly, which becomes a huge stumbling block if you're trying to have a lengthy back and forth with someone else. I hate him and I hate you people as well, he didn't even know about 4chanx or reverse image search, he didn't know how to make an exhentai account and he uses xitter, facebook, instagram and probably tiktok as well.
>>5914893boomers shirt and pissed themselves at this "fire animation"get some real nostalgia like skyrimi used to have nostalgia but then I took an arrow to the knew xD :,)
>>5951452zoomer fucking shitting and pissing himself because all he has to be nostalgic about are trannies, entire culture being taken over by blacks, being scared of empty rooms and western civilazation going into the fucking shitter with weak men whipped by feminazis
anybody got that dead internet video about pishers or something?

Every single thing you are nostalgic for is product. MKULTRA is complete.

It was completely dead from 2014 to 2019-2020. Mostly because a lot of these mainstream emo/nu-metal/hardcore punk bands disbanded at the same time in early 2010's. Either they explored all the possibilities of their genre, or became popular with the help of the industry, that didn't want them anymore.

>>5960290I talked to my wife about this and the mindset frightens her. Any oldfag who's used this site since the 2000s has obviously been exposed to a lot of the deep web secrets, and many times we learned of the conspiracies and puppet masters before it reached main stream.When I reveal some of the impossible-to-deny proof behind world wars, sandy hook, 9/11, US propaganda, she agrees with it but says it's depressing to view life that way because you can never see it the same way ever again. So for now I allow her to live innocently free so that we don't corrupt our children, and I bear the load of knowing the REAL truth and influence of what we are being distributed. It's a good balance until our kids are adults.
Can we just post hot emo girls instead

>>5921220Does the argument that this is what's it's like for every generation have legs? I feel like everything really is soulless today. Stagnation, minimum viable product, endless subscriptions, meaningless entertainment made only to tick boxes. Few things are being created to push boundaries, to bring genuine enjoyment to others, or just for fun. Now, everything must adhere to efficiency, accessibility, sensibilities, profitability, etc. It really feels like to me the world ended around 2008.

>>5967102The tide has to recede if it’s to ever come back in. You must have stagnation to recognize the flourishing that inevitably follows. It’s all cycles. Shit sucks but it’s the nature of the universe. Peace with it comes from acceptance. I’m turning 47 here in a few months and I’m just starting to really intuitively understand this.
>>5963311Sometimes I wish I had not learned what I have. Sometimes I wish I was ignorant of the things going on, of the true horrors some humans can enact, if you can still call them human. I've learned so much and it's so bad. The worst things normies can imagine, I've seen evidence of and things far worse. All conspiracies in the world boil down to the same thing: a vast, gargantuan battle between Good and Evil that's been going on since Creation. We're just caught in it when the internet thinned the veil between the unknown and known evils. The Age of Information has allowed us to know of things beyond any horror author's imagination, and it's true. Truly chilling, terrible things are going on and it's things that you can only find in two places: The most depraved mind of a raving maniac, or secret rooms visited by the highest .1% of society. I wish I could go back to when I didn't know, and prevent myself from seeing what I have. Maybe I'd just be a regular normie, but I know I can't. God directed us down the path we're on, and has a reason for us knowing what we know. May God help us pull through, and forgive us of our trespasses. My sins seem nothing by comparison but repentance is still needed by everyone and so I do. I hope the world changes and these people lose the power they have in directing nations and peoples.
