"Crazes" that you were ashamedly apart of... - Page 2

ilikeplanets · 02-17-2015, 03:37 PM

no crazes for me, i'm a rebel

The exploding boy · 02-17-2015, 03:40 PM

I'm trying to think of something good.

NES i guess. Like pretty much every other kid this generation...it seems to not really count.

Wait i know, MCIS era SP.

Oh, also, Minecraft.

i was never ashamed to be a 90's manson fan, but i never bought another record after mechanical animals

i would say cs 1.6 back in '01. that was a craze for me and something i was straight into and thought too much about. my bf introduced me to it and i became friends with his sister (geo) so i was able to sleepover a lot.

i'm an early riser and he wasn't so i could play for almost 5 hours in one sitting.

slunken · 02-17-2015, 09:56 PM

no, it was a lifestyle choice

Wait a minute... I think we got the thread all wrong.

""Crazes" that you were ashamedly apart of..."

LaBelle · 02-17-2015, 10:53 PM

"apart from" would be the correct form

Trotskilicious · 02-17-2015, 11:13 PM

does d&d count cuz it seems lots of hipsters are doing it ironically or because creatives admit to playing it

LaBelle · 02-17-2015, 11:30 PM

I never played D&D

Trotskilicious · 02-17-2015, 11:38 PM

well i mean not the question really

LaBelle · 02-17-2015, 11:46 PM

well, from my perspective it didn't have a "craze" seems more like an ongoing thing that grows bigger and bigger.

Trotskilicious · 02-17-2015, 11:49 PM

i still think its only actually played by total nerds

yo soy el mejor · 02-18-2015, 09:07 AM

not in high school

ilikeplanets · 02-18-2015, 04:20 PM

i was pretty into guitar hero when it was popular, actually

hnibos · 02-18-2015, 05:16 PM

Me too, very shameful

The exploding boy · 02-18-2015, 05:18 PM

I bought into the being scared craze during and shortly after 9/11

The exploding boy · 02-18-2015, 05:19 PM

also, masturbation.

It's not dying down though. Everybody is still doing it. It was all the rage in grade school.

The exploding boy · 02-18-2015, 05:41 PM

I always win trivial pursuit but with the most bullshit questions. like everyone else gets the impossibly hard ones and i get the ones people might actually know. So i feel like a cheat every time.

I have to say though my trivial pusruit games are like from the early to mid 80s so the general knowledge stuff is severely outdated. It's asking you about some presidential races details from 1984 everyone forgot by now.

Random trivial fact: The game was invented by two montrealers. Not many things were invented in thsi province so i have to point it out every time, by law. Unfortunately though they were anglos. Still we got a french version pretty much right away and they called it (at least the one released here, i dont know in france) Quelques Arpent de Pieges (a few acres of traps) which is a wordplay on what Voltaire famously dismissively said of Nouvelle-France/Quebec when he saw it: quelques arpents de Neiges (a few acres of snow). Allegedly that rhymes. It still makes no sense to me as a game title. I used to find it genuinely weird when people would play it, like in the 80's. I'd be like WHY IS THIS GAME TITLE SO WEIRD AND STUPID?

I got a flat top when I was like 6 because it was popular in TX at the time

hnibos · 02-18-2015, 08:57 PM

Was that before or after the mullet
