No-stalgia

No-stalgia

In sharp contrast to PS2-era webcomics that have shambled on well past their expiry date, the wiser curators of another Gen Y nostalgia brand knew when their moment had passed.

 A reader shares this conversation which proves how deep the Pop Cult conditioning goes.The context of this particular discussion was the NFL.
