Since jonthefon brought up the topic of nostalgia in his excellent fanpost (if you haven't read it, do yourself a favor and check it out, please), I thought I would show the fun side of nostalgia rather than the futile one.
Here are some of my favorite shows that make me long for the good old days:
Jessie Spano Caffeine Pill Freakout! (via dan182) - CLASSIC...caffeine pills are hard drugs, be warned.
Steamed Hams (via SemisolidGoose) - back when this show was hilarious. Unfortunately this is just audio of the scene with a screencap, but it's one of my favorite Simpsons moments of all time. "You call them steamed hams despite the fact that they're obviously grilled."
X-Men Season 1 - Ep6 (1 of 3) (via softhard27) - they showed this episode ALL THE TIME when I used to watch X-Men on Saturday mornings. It's the one when Wolverine goes to some freezing cold place and some Eskimo guy gets jealous of him because Wolverine becomes the hero of the tribe and then Sabretooth comes in to try and kick Wolverine's ass. Meanwhile, Storm, Jubilee and Gambit go to some island called Genosha that seemingly accepts mutants.
Fun fact: I kind of hate Cyclops and Jean while Gambit is my favorite.
Salute Your Shorts: Theme Song [Season 2] (via travelsonic) - AWFUL WAFFLE...this show needs to come out on DVD now so I can relive my childhood!
Fun fact: Blake Sennett (used to be Blake Soper), who was added in Season 2, is the co-founder/lead guitarist of the now-defunct Rilo Kiley.
Powerpuff Girls - Theme (HQ) (via U4iA1972) - sugar, spice, and everything nice.
Fun fact: my middle name is the name of one of the Powerpuff Girls.
BONUS:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Best quotes from the original cartoon (via mbern45)
Sailor Moon Opening (English) (via xNaminex)
What are some of your favorites growing up?

well telling from my icon, should already clue you in on one of my nostalgia fixes.
X-men (both the original cartoon and evolution), Spiderman (pretty much every animated form from the 90’s cartoon and beyond, including the cg one that was on mtv), Batman: tas, Static Shock, and Beast Wars. I got plenty more though.
No joke
I was just watching the steamed hams the other night. Possibly one of the funniest moments on that show.
Aurora Borealis? At this time of year? A this time of day? In this part of the country?Localized entirely within your kitchen? “Yes.”
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
Batman: TAS, Original and Ninja Power Rangers, Sailor Moon, Dragonball Z, Rugrats, TMNT.
Ahh! Real Monsters, lots of stuff on nick and cartoon network. I was singing the shit out of the Sailor Moon theme song right now, I’m going to be Tuxedo Mask for Halloween.
X-Men..
I remember how the opening song seemed so cool to me back then. Then I just realized that Jean Grey kinda fainted in every episode she was in. And, Cyclops was an emo.
Gambit was suave
that french dude
Don't need another perfect line... Don't care if critics ever jump in line...
yeah, they de-powered the crap outtta Jean
every episode, if she would even blink wrong she’d pass out.
how young are we talking?
because I watched 90210 and Party of Five RELIGIOUSLY.

Neve Campbell and Jennifer Love Hewitt
FTW!
Jessica Biel from 7th Heaven too. Beverley Mitchell was a cute little thing…
Oh, and Keri Russell aka Felicity Porter…
how young, then?
Don't need another perfect line... Don't care if critics ever jump in line...
I never got into 7th Heaven or Felicity
but I was emotionally involved in Kelly and Brendan… and devastated when they broke up. And Scott Wolf? gtfo. I love him.

HAPPY ZOMBIE DAY!
Managing Editor of MavsMoneyball.com
you've offended my core values.
and this will not stand, zombie killer.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
You haven't watched very many zombie movies
and will probably be among the first to fall to them when the zombpocalypse happens.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
Then you should know that asking why you should kill a zombie will earn some hearty guffaws from your peers.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
I'm just saying...
seems like an awful lot of effort. just let ’em be.

i watched like 5 minutes of hanna, and got bored. i don't know what that says about me.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
I liked it, but it didn't meet my high expectations
A movie with Queen Cate, the hotness that is Eric Bana, and someone with Saoirse Ronan’s talent will have high expectations from me. Great soundtrack, though.

it has moments.
like a lot of will ferrell movies, it relies on his stupidity too much.

You know what other Will Ferrell movie comes to mind that should have been funny but was instead disappointing
Blades of Glory
Will Arnett and Amy Poehler made it tolerable

Yeah I forgot to drop by here to greet everyone on time.
Well, better late than never.
I’m hoping the heavens would give us a win. Just one win. No, 13 more wins.
Honey, it's not the heavens who will help
This team has to help themselves
You think I didn’t pray when we made it to the Finals…look what happened there, it was the opposite of having my prayers answered.

We need everyone to go into “super saiyan” mode to win this thing. If you get what I mean.
Of course I get it :)
I appreciate the wonderful reference

Holy crap, Game of Thrones
My heart hurts after that episode :(
See, lyrically I'm Mario Andretti on the MOMO

I won't say!
But I was legit weeping at the end…good thing I was alone, it was quite pathetic
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
I watched the episode again and I had to skip the ending :(
I really liked it; I think Jon the bastard will become prominent later…I just have a feeling. He’s one of my favorite characters, along with Daenerys and Tyrion.
I just watched the first episode of The Killing and I really like it so far. Do you watch that one?
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
Yeah, agreed, Jon will definitely come to the forefront. The mother kind of gets on my nerves...
Daen definitely had a mood swing….im scared of it, to im going to teach him how to do it…I think I’ll end up liking Arya better than Bran. And I have the feeling that Sansa is going to be like the daughter in Rome, starts off ok then eventually gets annoying.
I'm a friggin parrot..
My friend was disappointed in the scene with Dany and her maid
Apparently they were naked in the book but were clothed on the show.
I found this very helpful; it explains that whole world without giving away spoilers. I think I will start reading the book concurrently with the show.

You should be in charge of this festival and get me free tickets so I can finally see Alex Turner in person and you and I can hang out and get drunk together and you can help me stalk Alex so I can ask him if he and Miles will do another Last Shadow Puppets album because I NEED ANOTHER ALBUM, DAMN IT because such genius can’t remain stagnant.

"Losers tonight, winners in general."
that's a fisher shirt.
ugh. i really wish you knew how to resize pictures.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
Um, did not mean to post that twice, I don't know how that happened
Sorry :/
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
no worries. everyone knows you're just trying to ballon the post count.
sly chicken.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
Where's the edtior so the double post can be deleted
It’s bothering me much more than the horrible haircut itself
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
Argh
I will make sure not to tell you any more of my pet peeves or phobias because I think you will use them against me
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
mehhhhhh, the main reason i haven't deleted it yet is cause i'm lazy.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
remember that one episode of mad men where the guy gets his foot run over by a riding lawnmower?
graphic.
saw it coming though.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
That was amazing
Loved the Joan/Don moment at the end…that was her last day at SC but her husband is a loser and she still had to get a job at a dept. store and then Pete saw her…then Pete decides to maybe rape that German nanny
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
I hated Joan's rape scene
It was in Don’s office, I think
You may not like Game of Thrones then…rape and incest. The show is so damn good, though.
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
i haven't been desensitized to it.
consensual sex, decapitation, these are things i don’t blink at.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
is this happening on a television show? if so, which one.
is someone going to clean off the chicken and eat it
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
Oh my god
It’s only one of my absolute favorite Mad Men and Pete Campbell moments of all time
He and Trudy had an argument (I think it was because she put their names on a list at an adoption agency) so he threw the chicken that she made off the balcony…best thing ever
Oh, Pete…I love and hate you
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
i miss so many things about that show. i watch episodes once, then never again.
pete is a fucked up troll.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
I hated him at first...I was definitely on Team Cosgrove in the beginning
Pete was such an ass kisser, full of himself, and a whiny bitch…and he is still all of those things, for the most part
But Pete is ahead of his time and completely under-appreciated in SC and SCDP. His relationship with Trudy and how he treats her has come a long way. He also had some of the best quotes/moments on the show (“Hell’s bells, Trudy!”, the whole Chip ’n Dip thing, the aforementioned roasted chicken incident, showing up to an emergency weekend meeting in a tennis outfit complete with tiny shorts).
The scene when Peggy tells him about the baby nearly broke my heart
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
hornets have the right idea.
they’re playing 2 centers basically.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
But a kick to the nuts will get your message across much better
Or maybe a roundhouse to the face
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
huh
cam newton is gone by nine, and the cowboys shouldn’t get a qb. duh??
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
find a way to bargain with barber for a trade of higher pick cuz he sucks
imagine the possibilities though with kitna the vet, romo, and cam waiting for a couple years to play. it can happen :-p
dumb, dude. just dumb.
that team has too many holes to draft a qb that won’t see any time for a couple of years.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
its tough to say who the cowboys draft
since we’re supposed to have the best players in every position. i’m actually voting for a lineman anyway. someone like larry allen status
wut
the cowboys clearly don’t have the best players at every position, even if you are being facetious. they’re going to draft linemen and safeties. both those positions were obscene holes in the team.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
lineman it is
allan ball was aight towards the end of the season without wade. i might get me a sean lee jersey brah
that sounds stupid. go for it.

uh yeah i can stream whatever through the internet on a ps3, and there's this thing called the playstation store that sells crap.
360 is inferior to the ps3. had both, one didn’t die on me. game over.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
is that a maintenance joke? i haven't played a multi-player game in a while.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
but you have to wonder if it's really worth the money you're paying on top of what you're paying for games.
also, to have a headset and have to listen to 10 year old jackoffs talk about their pwning skillz
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
saving grace was having girls jump on to say that we have to stop playing
so that we can all get drunk and naked….and its probably past their bedtime..
I'm a friggin parrot..
oh, YOU had girls saying they were gonna get naked.
damn, i read that as you had people on the other end talking about that.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!

willie green got on the back of shannon brown while he went for a rebound, and brown turned around and swung a serious elbow at green.

i ono. got a tech for it. bet the guys in churge will take a look at it.

So LAL will end up pulling it out...
hopefully the Mavs pull it out (but even if they didn’t it wouldn’t be called an upset).. OKC will win… and SAS will be the only upset of the WC.
MEM – OKC
LAL – DAL/POR
I think OKC just became the new “hot pick” to go to the finals.

the okc vs nuggets game is going to be better
i wonder if gerge karl got in westbrook and durants head a little
they didn't stay because they didn't get the fan support.
don’t throw labels on teams just because you don’t like them. have a reason.
that doesn't make sense.
what does it matter what the city has. they have an arena and fans, that’s enough.
okay, realistically nuggets have a shot to win it in 7.
besides , its all about the grizz being the team to look out for.
haha, man portland is dumb for letting go of zachy randolph
at least keep a descent player who doesn’t get injured (roy) to build around.
decent
fucking decent
tattoo that word in your eyelids or use another adjective.

ginobili’s defense consists of watching his man get the ball, then promptly falling to the floor due to a breeze.

YOU FUCKING CALL GAMES OVER THAT AREN'T OVER.

I hope the Grizzlies won’t let this affect them mentally :(

I don't know
I was too busy flailing over the teaser trailer for Deathly Hallows part two
Just saying, the Grizzlies better not be like this
Why, Tracy? Why?

he somehow got the idea in his head that he's Dallas' premiere sportswriter....
He was on w/ Ben and Skin the other day in Portland and refused to answer any questions that required any thinking because it was too early for him.
I'm a friggin parrot..
nah, but so help me if you turn into a blazers fan.
you’ll be banned so fast, gabe will feel like he was molested.
i hear he has milk and cookies w/ ben, skin, followill, and shaun dodge daily.

Y'all wake up and watch this damn wedding with me.
It’s a nice day for a royal wedding.
I stole this from someone on twitter, chamona.
I would have kept you company had I known :(
I ended up just listening to it on the radio since I couldn’t be bothered to put on my contact lenses and actually get up to watch.
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
Aw boo.
Was Marv Albert doing the radio play by play? “And here is Kate stepping out of the car, YES! What great execution by Kate Middleton.”
I'll say...she executed that dress perfectly
And no, silly…I listen to NPR in the mornings and their crew at the scene were mostly posh sounding Brits and a couple of Americans.
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
I'm live tweeting this shit and I'm spitting hot fire.
You guyses are missing out on gold. Gold, Jerry!
Here's a good one.
Oh shit, where is George Michaels? Did anybody wake him up before they went went?! #royalwedding
That’s @Bruce182
I’m here all week.
They sang "My Country 'Tis of Thee."
The lyrics were all different though, they were talking about some queen. But Freddie Mercury is dead :(
I am all about the royal wedding today!
Kate looked stunning, I absolutely loved her gown (Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen) and she looked so happy and perfect.
I hope they make the marriage last :)

Who/what determines the scheduling in the playoffs?
We don’t play until Monday yet Memphis already plays tomorrow. BOS/MIA play tomorrow as well, and Boston hasn’t played since Sunday while Miami hasn’t played since Wednesday. It sucks that Memphis has such a short turnaround time.
"Losers tonight, winners in general."
Just saw Arcade Fire hnnnngagghghgnnnnn
SO GOOD.

What happened?
"I relish your wit."

I graduated last August from TCU
and had to get a real person job.
If I move back to FW, I might ask my station manager if I can do a weekend show for fun. It was seriously awesome.
"You're failing Seymour; what is it with you and failure?"
they still have the occasional good episode.
i thought season four was really good. and the fifth season was equally good to me minus the christmas episode. season six was very forgettable.
knock knock.. my fist up your balls!
I was pretty underwhelmed by the Nightman musical
Probably because I hyped it up so much in my head. Is the Christmas episode the one with a naked and oiled up Danny Devito…?
"I relish your wit."
"Well, I salsa...your face."
I only saw it once, as well
Unfortunately that image is burned in my memory
"I relish your wit."
"Well, I salsa...your face."
You're welcome
Besides, you didn’t have to click on it…much like you didn’t have to go to lemonparty.org when I mentioned it, haha
You could have used your imagination…
"I relish your wit."
"Well, I salsa...your face."
Hopefully the sight of Danny Devito's bare and oiled ass brought it back
How are you going to write that screenplay without imagination? Plagiarize, I suppose…
"I relish your wit."
"Well, I salsa...your face."
isn't all writing plagiarism?
i could write one of those dumbshit parodies that they keep coming out with.
