Naw, posting online can at least expose you to new ideas.

Haha, wrong. My problem with nostalgia is that pretty much any object, fad, or phenomenon associated with a time period in the past instantly becomes charming once something has replaced it, and its charm increases with time. So it's not surprising, or interesting, to me, that I find a dial tone or an AOL screenshot appealing. And in 20 years it'll be just as easy and natural for anyone to laugh at and reminisce about a Facebook login screen or a 3G iPhone.

I'm starting to miss the music of the 90s yet during the 90s I thought I'd never do such a thing.

Nostalgia isn't THAT pointless nor does it take that long to feel.
