Stop Being Nostalgic for Things That Sucked
We need to talk about nostalgia — specifically, how people keep pretending that everything from the past was better. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t. You didn’t have freedom, innocence, or “real music.” You had asbestos, dial-up, and a clown that lived in your TV.
In this rant, I take aim at the weaponized nostalgia that’s turned “back in my day” into a personality type. We’ll talk about:
🧠 Why nostalgia lies to you harder than a 90s cereal commercial
📺 How “simpler times” were usually just worse times with fewer safety regulations
👵 Why people miss their childhood — not the world they grew up in
💩 And how maybe, just maybe, the past didn’t deserve that reboot
This isn’t about hating the past — it’s about remembering it honestly. Because not every memory deserves a Funko Pop.
🎙️ Watch, laugh, and scream into the void with me.
