Nickelodeon Clutches Heartstrings of Suffering Quarterlifers

While conducting research for our last post, it came to our attention that there are a lot of bummed-out twenty-somethings sitting around making Nickelodeon tributes to shows they grew up with. (See more here.)

Why is no one -- least of all Nickelodeon -- exploiting this wellspring of self-obsessed nostalgia? If we saw Gumby or Inside-Out Boy pushing product at us, we'd be all over that in an irrational second.

And we'd possibly (though not probably) kill to see a marathon of Salute Your Shorts or something SNICK-like. We'd even revisit Hey Arnold! if we had to. Man. Remember when TV was good? Remember TGIF? WTF happened to TGIF?!

I envision us actually loosing our physical bodies and turning into bursts of energy that had to have whatever...yesterday. Nanoseconds are going to be too long of a wait for a burger or a movie.

it floors my kids that I can sit for a few hours and read an ACTUAL book...with wood pulp pages and NARY a picture.
