anyone remember 'good an fruity' candy? it was like 'good an plenty' except it was edible.
Yes! Somebody tried to tell me I was thinking of Mike and Ikes, but I knew I wasn't crazy.
Original Special K cereal. Not the Original they call original now.
Oh, I didn't know they changed it. Haven't had it since I was a kid. That sucks. Seems like everyone giving bad reviews on it. It was the only non-sugar cereal that tasted good dry.
Camel Exotic Blend Cigarettes. Good times. cough COUGH ahhhh. Good times.
Jodorowsky's Dune.
The actual film, not the documentary.
The joyful wonder and whimsey that lived in my soul and twinkle that shone through my eyes, or at least I think it was there. It's now just a faint memory of a memory, something that I yearn for but unsure if I ever even tasted it.
Sunbeam honey buns and Sara Lee apple danishes. I have a bit of a sweet tooth.
The 4400 and Eureka
10 cent Near beer, (NA beer today), available for us kids to buy on street vending machines.
Some of my best memories was being able to get into town in the evenings after all the chores were done and playing baseball with my friends on a hot summer evening. And when we were done, we would walk uptown to the one pop machine that had Hamms near beer in it. At 10 cents for a 12 oz bottle it was amazing. So cold and so refreshing.
People today would absolutely lose their minds over 9 or 10 kids standing around on a sidewalk drinking NA beer today.
I want Arizona to bring back their piña colada. Apparently they haven't made it since 2011.
The Quest (2014). It was a random find on Netflix many years ago. My friend and I checked it out and ended up getting into it. We ended up watching 2-3 episodes back to back. It's one of my all time favorite 'different' TV shows.
"Fantasy meets reality as 12 contestants engage in epic challenges in the world of "Everealm", and compete to avoid "banishment" in order to become the one true hero that will save the kingdom."
Garbage Pail Kid cards.
I want another Splinter Cell game.
But seeing what Ubisoft has become…maybe it’s for the best we haven’t had a new one in 11 years.
Too bad they won’t let someone else make a new game.
Same for Deus Ex.
original carrot sobe
The Hotline Miami game franchise. 1 was perfect, 2 was better in every single way, and right after dropping both entries within a year of each other to wild acclaim, the creators announced that they wouldn't develop the series further, which is a shame. I'd gladly buy a new entry every single year if I could.
I remember a blue Pepsi that was hella fucking good back when I was in high school. I miss that. It was a pretty sour berry flavor; might have been blue raspberry but it was also pretty unique and one of the sweetest, yet still tolerable, sodas I've ever tried.
I also miss Dr. Slice. It wasn't a Dr. Pepper knock off; it was an official mix of Dr. Pepper and Slice. Not sure if it was orange slice, but it was better than regular Dr. Pepper and I only ever saw it at one random ass restaurant in the small town I had lived in most of my life.
Fritos original lime and Chile early 2k.
Noragami - too soon it was just getting good.
I’m very disappointed by the lack of ‘The Middleman’ here. A very fun show with a very spunky Natalie Morales. Based on the graphic novels by Javier Grillo-Marxuach and Les McClaine, but the best part was that Javier Grillo-Marxuach was the show runner so it really didn’t lose that crazy fun factor of comic books nuttiness. Seriously rock eating aliens, zombie flying fish, boy bands trying to take over the world. It only got 12 Episodes and it’s still got 100% on rotten tomatoes and even over an 8 on IMDb.
I think a remake or sequel of Samurai Pizza Cats would be golden.
