    There's literally an episode of Doug where Doug's standard outfit inexplicably becomes super popular. So watch 90s Nick to learn what to do.

    I remember that one. I think he tried to change clothes and just ended up accepting the new trend just in time for it to end. He was then happy to be bland again. I think skeeters clothes were the next trend....idk I'm old some of that may be made up.

        kind of. but it's mostly character development. His edge mostly was "I'm drunk and an asshole who pretends to not care"

        He starts to actually care about his family. The ultra depressed suicidal rick got a bit tiring after a while

          Yeah, I always feel a little embarrassed to bring it up. I'm liking that there are more underground games coming out now like turnip28 and trench crusade, but they don't scratch the same itch in the same way yet.

              Punk was big in the late 70s - mid 80s, though? I thought the big boom was early 80s. It was buried under things like nu-metal and emo in the late 90s (I'm fuzzy on this because of reasons).

                When? No idea, but all the sudden it was quiet normal to see Spacemarine and Orc figures appearing on the desks of nerds...

                  if so then name your thing

                  Sort of I guess: em dashes.

                  Not to talk about, but to use when writing.
                  Now they are apparently the hallmark of AI-generated crap.

                  I've never been called out as AI for using them; but if I ever am, I have the strategy of knowing the alt code for them (0151). I even know the shortcut in word to insert one — pressing alt-X with your cursor at the end of "2014". I also have a vscode macro set up that is just an emdash, just in case I'm in a situation where there's not a way I know to insert one.

                    I'd say Space Marine 1 did a significant job in making the franchise more nerd-mainstream. Before it, it was the Dawn of War game and expansions. Slow and steady growth of awareness, I think

                        I got into anime when you had to go to shitty distributor conventions, in shitty city limits hotels, and walk through a big room filled with smoke, rifling through boxes of tapes, while greasy guys in cheap suits tried to talk you into buying shit. The other option were shoddily scanned, black and white, prints of distro catalogues you could order from. They would always be companies you never heard of, from buildings in weird places, and you could never know if you were actually going to get something, or just lose that money. The Sci Fi channel would have saturday morning anime, which would play, uncensored, stuff, but generally only the biggest hits. So it would cycle through Akira, Vampire Hunter D, Bubble Gum Crises, and about a dozen others.

                        It started to get a better at the end of the 90s, when you had a couple larger distros that came on to the scene, and you could reliably get what you paid for. They would also always have previews of other anime they were selling before the movie started, and it was likely set to some KMFDM track. Then in the 2000s is when it sorts hit a sweet spot, it was easy to get, there were multiple options on TV, and it hadn't quite yet become totally mainstream. Haven't really bothered with it much since then. Sometimes I will get recommendations from people I know I can trust to not be suggest the millionth iteration of watered down Fist of the North Star, fan service vehicles, or things that are just collages of bad anime tropes turned into a show.

                              Green day, offspring, and sum41 are all very solidly in the pop/punk genre, debatably leaning more pop...

                                    This is why I either went with Chaos (during my adolescence, mostly outgrew them) or Aeldari. I mean, they aren't that much better from a lore perspective, but at least they give everyone a chance to suffer equally...

                                    lore

                                    Let me interject with my unasked opinion:
                                    Aa far as I'm concerned the trouble started when we stopped calling it fluff and started calling it lore (and treating it with such reverance) instead.

                                        Alt-codes are for nerds

                                        - 60% gang

                                        I really think more text formatting should do as mobile devices do and just auto convert two hyphens into an em dash. Make it simple, i beg.

                                          Nazi ideology, OP OP. There was a nice little thing we had once, until you cunts took it up like a hoard of malignant nihilist pussies 😒Now we can't even bring up the Third Reich's many incredible qualities in conversation without someone rolling their eyes! n-chan numpties ruin every fandom.
