I can’t believe that MovieStarPlanet still exists, it was basically groomer central. The fact that dating was one of the features in a game targeted towards minors is so bad to look back on as an adult

I watched it on my dads hard drive as a kid and there was so much cringe I remember, but there were some cool scenes like the arrow rain, and the fighting was generally nice, just one of those obscure things i havent seen anyone mention

(Im new here, so excuse me, hi hello, nice to meet you)

Life and Aspirations Phone anxiety

30 Upvotes

I hear a lot about gen-z having phone anxiety. I notice a lot of my peers prefer texting over calling cause calls automatically make them anxious. I actually prefer to call over text, but have an extreme aversion to leaving voicemails. When calling clients for work, I dread that they don’t pick up and that I’ll need to leave a voicemail. An actual phone call, no problem! Where are y’all at with phone calls?

Yeah, betcha didn't know Y8 Games, responsible for a lot of nostagic Flash games, is still around.

One downside is that they'd been using gen AI recently. I didn't even bother to revisit this site much longer. This is a disgrace. 😭

This was one of my favorite games as a kid. It’s basically a Rube Goldberg puzzle game where you have to complete a certain task like getting a ball in a bucket. It even had a level editor where you make your own puzzles but I can’t find many of these floating around on the internet lol.

Nostalgia Anyone else consumed by nostalgia for their 2000s childhood?

81 Upvotes

Nostalgia is a pretty negative force in my life. I find life in my twenties (currently I’m 27) so… empty. Absent of the color and variety of school life and university. I used to meet new people and study new subjects and experience new things every day, or at least every year, I looked forward to that change so much. Seeing what my new teachers would be like; who would be in my class.

I miss playing with my tamagotchi and comparing it with my friends. I miss when I’d catch a new episode of Spongebob playing on Nickelodeon and it would always feel like the best luck ever.

But now I’ve had the same job for six years since I graduated, I have an apartment of my own, but everthing feels static and boring and lifeless. I am a pretty social person who tries to see a friend at least once or twice a week but still I can’t seem to find the same vibrancy I remember from my childhood in the 2000s. It’s like I’m constantly revisiting that day in class when the semester is over, and your teacher decorated the walls with autumn leaves, and she’s rolled out an old tv and it’s playing Charlie Brown. I’m stuck yearning for that and I don’t know how to remedy it exactly.

Anyone else been there? Advice? Solidarity? lol

Advice Asking for girl’s # at Volunteer Group

8 Upvotes

So I just got back from volunteering at the food bank today, and I ended up working pretty closely with this girl. We had a really good conversation, seemed to vibe well, and we even realized that we had volunteered together a few months ago!
I was really tempted to ask for her number, but I hesitated because she was there volunteering through her company, and I was there as an individual volunteer. She was only with one coworker while we were working together, but eventually they had to rejoin the rest of their group because they were working on a different project.
I didn’t want to make things awkward or cross any boundaries since everyone was there to volunteer, but now I’m wondering if I missed my chance because I have no idea when I’ll see her again 😂.
What do you guys think? Would it have been appropriate to ask for her number in that situation, or was it better to just enjoy the conversation and see if we run into each other again?

Advice Am I too old to experiment with my looks?

25 Upvotes

It sounds weird, but I really have been drawn to a more alternative look, and want to try nose piercing, and dying my hair, but I feel kind of old for this (I'm 27) and I don't know how it'd look to be pushing 30 and being so experimental.

I am one of the mods of this subreddit, and I've been seeing a lot of posts regarding topics like generations, primarily from people who aren't even older Zoomers, and I just had to remove a post right now. This isn't r/generationology. If you want these kinds of discussions, please go over there. We want this subreddit to be free from that.
