31470I'm sorry, but I just don't agree to this.<blockquote rel="DirtyD79"><b>DirtyD79 wrote :</b><br><i> Ironic thing to say on a nostalgia site but I agree with you. It just seems like these days it's all a big cash grab saying "Hey remember that thing back when?" Plus most of my nostalgia isn't really tied to movies tv shows, and cartoons from back in the day. It's tied to experiences I had, places I went to, and people I knew.

Much of the reason that the movies, TV shows, and products mean so much to us is the result of our experiences with them and the people we were with when we partook of the them. Also the experiences we had when those products and properties were in the public consciousness. <br>Vaporman87Apr 30, 2016View

31468Chernobyl<blockquote rel="Vaporman87"><b>Vaporman87 wrote :</b><br><i> Me too V. I recently watched a good doc on the subject. Very informative and lots of images of the deserted areas. </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote>I was watching some shows on Animal Planet about Chernobyl too a few days ago. I just thought it's so interesting how there's actually plants, animals, and even a few people still living there. The host from River Monsters was fishing in the cooling pond and was catching some 7 foot long catfish in there. Surprisingly though their giant size isn't really a mutation as Wels catfish tend to be pretty big already but it was still cool to see. I've also seen pictures of the abandoned city like the amusement park and the houses and it just seems so weird. It's like you see a whole city but yet no people in it and it makes you wonder what their lives were like before the disaster happened. That's why I'm a big fan of sites exploring abandoned buildings and stuff.DirtyD79Apr 30, 2016View

31466Game of ThronesNext to Better Call Saul it's one of my favorite current shows. I'd have to say my favorite characters are The Hound, Tyrion Lannister, Arya Stark, and Ramsay Bolton but most of the characters seem interesting to me in their own ways.&nbsp;DirtyD79Apr 30, 2016View
