| 3906 | Article | ThatDudeintheHoodie | I think there were three, but I remember playing this one. | May 27, 2017 |  | |
| 4134 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I think this is a front runner for contest winner. Living vicariously through your original creation? That's just great. | Russell - The Black-Eyed Simpson | Sep 15, 2017 | |
| 2621 | Article | Vaporman87 | I think this may be my favorite article of yours so far. You're so right. It's not about the shows or commercials themselves. Like you said, they can be watched at any point on YouTube (and in some cases, HERE!) But to find all those other little details... local ads, local station promos, etc. And then to watch them all just as they aired together, like for a moment your TV has stepped back in time and is showing you what was on at any given moment, somewhere in the US. Then you start to wonder what the person recording the tape was thinking or doing while watching these shows and such play out. What was the purpose? What shows were they hoping to capture the most? Where is that person now? There just so much wrapped up in the simple act of watching the old recordings of someone else. I have a feeling Caps has extensive experience with this, as all of his video submissions seem to come from these types of recordings, local ads and all. | VHS Television Treasure Hunt | Sep 09, 2015 | |
| 3197 | Article | mickyarber | I think this may be my favorite story I've read here on Retro-Daze. I read it while Away in a Manger was just playing in the background, it it came darn close to bringing a tear to my eye. That or it's from all the saw dust in my shop today. Just an excellent read. I think I'll be reading it to my daughters along with The Night Before Christmas this year. Thanks for sharing. | Christmas Yuleogy | Dec 12, 2015 | |
| 4052 | Article | Vaporman87 | I think we all found inspiration in some form of cartoon in our youth. For me, it was He-Man and various superheroes, but for some it is something more humorous and childlike. Whatever the case may be, those first characters always seem to leave the biggest mark, even if they aren't exactly our best efforts. | Lars Dakota: The lost original character | Aug 22, 2017 | |
| 3133 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I think we all had that moment of stealing from as store, but it's always worse when you know the person. | Confessions: The Snack Burglar | Nov 26, 2015 | |
| 1431 | Article | Vaporman87 | I think we've all had at least one of those stories passed around regarding "the house next door" or some escaped murderer on the loose. Kids love scaring other kids. I was not immune to it, unfortunately. More than once, I made up a story about a little girl getting caught in hidden quicksand in the woods behind our house (DOH!). Naughty, naughty. And there was at least one house in our little neighborhood that could have easily been the subject of a scary tale (though it wasn't). One thing that IS true, and can be good for giving a kid some fright, is that the catfish in the Ohio River (a mere 10 minutes from me) can reach the size of men. I've seen pictures of some that were almost that size, caught be people I know. Tales of them were pretty regular after divers began searching for the remains of people who had died in the Silver Bridge Collapse in the town over from us (and also across the river in Point Pleasant WV). Oh, then there was that whole Mothman thing... but that's a whole other subject unto itself. | Scary Stories from the Schoolyard | Oct 14, 2014 | |
| 1255 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I think what really gave Are You Afraid of the Dark the edge over Goosebumps aside from its more cerebral scares, was it's time slot. The placement at the end of SNICK programming on a Friday night around 9:30pm was perfect for that "late night" ghost story feel, while Goosebumps was on at 4pm in the afternoon. Hard to get scared when the sun is out and birds are chirping just outside your window. | 90's Vs: Goosebumps vs Are You Afraid of the Dark | Sep 16, 2014 | |
| 4996 | Article | Benjanime | I think what ruined Saturday morning cartoons for me was when 4kids started dubbing more anime after pok'emon, I understand some edits they made were necessary, but some others really bothered me. | We Remember: Kids WB | Aug 02, 2019 | |
| 366 | Article | raptor | I think when I get some time this week I'm going to sign up and start with something as close to my old character as I can remember. Should be a fun blast from the past. | Meridian 59 Remembered | Feb 18, 2013 | |
