I wish to annoy the nostalgia miseryguts crowd that insists on forwarding me stuff.
Remember when there was no "terror threat level"? Remember when GI Joe action figures didn't demand your papers when you pushed the button on their backs? Remember when the government pretended they weren't listening to our phone conversations? Remember when your worst nightmares weren't idiotically optimistic?
I need more of this.
Is the point to make the past seem better than it was, or worse?
I mean, you could go either way with that.
"Remember when Polio claimed the lives of thousands of kids who just wanted to go swimming?"
Remember when there were 2 different numbers at the beginning of the year and clouds weren't made extinct by chemtrails?
Remember when marital rape was allowed by law?
Remember when you didn't need your passport to come home from Canada?

Both.
Remember when we didn't worry ourselves with seat belts and lifejackets, because the leading cause of death for children under four was violence by their parents?
The good old days when taxpayers didn't have to pay for things like Early Head Start, and the crime rate was at its highest point in American history?
Remember when we weren't so goshdarn paranoid about women smoking and drinking during pregnancy?
Remember when the Government kept out of your personal business and didn't try to control whether your child had Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, was premature, or low birth weight with all these "guidelines" and "programs"?
Back in the good old days, schools warned kids about the dangers of homosexuality, instead of encouraging "acceptance". Remember when it was still OK to beat someone to death because they were gay?

There was a set of terrible nostalgia macros we did a while back, too.
Remember when polio and small pox were things?
Remember when refrigeration didn't exist and foods rotted in days?
Remember when we used leaded gasoline and the resulting brain damage in our children caused the greatest spike in crime rates in US history?
Remember when children worked in mines and textile mills?

Remember when we thought that was barbaric so started using SCIENCE and electricity instead?
Remember that we're STILL doing that to about 100,000 people a year NOW?
Remember good old fashioned torture? (You know, before it got all politically correct)
Remember the time before the War On Drugs, when heroin was less available, more expensive and of lower purity?
Remember Sundown towns?
Remember when the CIA wasn't actively involved in raising the purity of said Heroin?
Remember when the whole world was pristine forests and dense, lush grassland, beautiful and green as nature intended and the only thing you had to worry about was being eaten by a sabre tooth tiger

My god, those are so perfect I'm going to have to find whole new groups in which to post them!
These are fucking awesome. :lulz:
Blew my shit right out of the water. GO GO GO!
Bump because this is great stuff.
Seconding that. The world needs more of these.
Remember when those Micks and Wops* were the ones stealing America's jobs?
*ethnic slurs can be changed to something less hateful, of course, but I think it gets the point across better. I was just told by a Teatard that anyone who was born of an illegal going up to 3 generations should get deported. I was all like, "BYE." And he looked perplexed. Apparently illegals only come in the smudgy skin style from Mexico, and not from Europe 100 years ago.

You're talking to a half-breed Gaelic-Garlic McDago that's the great-granddaughter of an illegal immigrant who came over from Sicily to escape the mafia. According to New York in the 1930s, I'm the worst kind of person, because somebody let the Irish and Italians breed together. Funny how in the 80s, nobody gave a fuck anymore. Nobody will give a fuck about the Hispanic immigrants once the next big thing comes in. Like Aliens.
