Nostalgia vs Quality (The Lizard's 10K thread)

what a weird thing to be that kid.
"hey, i was chaka on the land of the lost"
that's like, the worst pick up line ever.

Hey, I was goth, not emo.

Of course, we didn't call it "goth" back then. I think I called it "dressing up in black and acting cool at scary dance clubs", or something like that.

Now I'm imagining Frasier as a teenager, dressed up in Goth garb.

[The Lizard]

how long've you been married now, Lizard?

Four years of marriage to my beautiful, intelligent and long-suffering wife.

I didn't trust anyone on the Hype enough to reveal personal stuff back when I got married in 2002, but I'm less paranoid about abusive online psychopaths now that I've become one.

Plus, in 2002 no one would have given a crap anyway, since the Spidey movie was opening that same month.

I misread the quote in your post and i thought I read "posted by the emo lizard" and I laughed.

Yeah, that was pretty hard on my neurons.

Nope. Even worse than that is Burt Ward. The lady that used to cut my hair when I was in college told me this story about how she was at a bar in California back in the early 80's called "The Batcave" that was done up sort of like Batman's cave from the TV show. She got approached by Burt Ward who actually came up to her and said "Hey, do you want to go back to my place?" and licked his lips really lasciviously. She goes "F**k no, you creep!" and he actually says "Do you know who I AM!? I'm Robin from the Batman TV show!" and then acted like he was super important and she should be throwing rose petals before him and kissing his feet. LOL! She dumped her drink on his head.

THAT is pathetic.

If it was Adam West, I could see it. But Robin is a fat-ass now. He looks like Richie Cunningham's dad almost.

Fat, thin, old, young....the guy's a dork no matter what. I just love the goofy sleaziness of a lascivious, aging Burt Ward actually hanging out at a bar called "The Batcave" and coming on to women with the expectation that they should not only know who he is but worship him as well. That needs to be in a movie or something.

Yeah I love all "Do you know who I AM?!?" stories, they're just better when the perpetrator doesn't even have a tenth of an ounce of charisma.

 

[maxwell's demon]

that's the saddest kind of nostalgia. for sex.

LOL, totally.
"Ahh, remember the good old days, when I used to get laid." Hahaha

This reminds me of a story I heard about Chris Claremont going to an SM club and getting some woman to dress up as Storm and fist him.

I'm nostalgic for those old Dunkaroos commercials. For that matter, I miss dunkaroos in general, do they still make them?

you hang around with people that tell stories about fisting Chris Clairemont?

 

[AllThingsComic]

In my opinion, nostalgia isn't so much the quality of the show or the toy or what ever the case may be, it's more of the feeling it gives you of the memory of that time. When I think of certain things it reminds me of when my family lived under one roof and how simple the days were. I guess since my Mom passed, I feel more nostalgic thinking back to those days.

i know. i respect Bats even more now than before.


...or is that not what you meant?

 

[JLBats]

I actually heard it in the comics forum on this site. But I hang around with people that formed a band that devotes itself to writing and recording songs about having sex with corpses and Gandhi, so I guess I'm still a sick puppy.

Man, I believe it. Some of his stuff I read in the 80's was kinky as f***. There was a New Mutants epic and a X-Men/Micronauts crossover when I was a kid with a few "scenes" that could've doubled as SM Porn lite.

Yup. And if you do just a tiny bit of digging on the real life Hellfire Club and see what it's about, you'll immediately wonder how Claremont came up with that name for the comics.
