Nostalgia 2006, 2016, 2026

19 Upvotes

Three notable years in pop culture ending in 6 and maybe it’s because I’m in my mid twenties but aside from a few things this year (Spider Man brand new day, obsession, backrooms, Olivia Rodrigo and Raye’s new albums, etc) I always find myself gravitating towards those years more. It felt way more real and interesting than any of the soulless slop I see pushed out of the mainstream now.

2006: Cars, the devil wears Prada, Hannah Montana, high school musical (I was 4 so it was the first full year of life I remember), Beyonce - B day, Rihanna - A girl like me, Justin Timberlake - future/sex/love/sounds

2016: frank ocean - blonde, Beyonce - lemonade, Rihanna - anti, The Weeknd - Starboy, Ariana - dangerous woman, stranger things, Deadpool, La La land, Hamilton (I was 14)

Edit: I’m so happy to see elder Gen Z hasn’t been fooled into thinking 2026 and newer cars are somehow better

I don’t have a car, I’m holding on to public transit
Another 1-2 years
Another 3-4 years
Another 5-7 years
Another 8-10 years
As long as possible, new cars are not worth buying

Other Looking for an old Facebook auto-battler game

4 Upvotes

Looking for an old Facebook game from around 2008-2012. It was a medieval auto-battler with flat top-down 2D sprites (looking straight down from above, no city building at all). The screen had a square deployment grid on the left and your available soldiers on the right. Positioning was key, you could place bards in the middle of your formation to buff the morale and stats of the surrounding units. Battles were blind: you only saw the enemy army after hitting start, at which point they fought automatically. I also remember the game logo had red and white. Anyone know what this was called?
