  • Justice League, Batman (The animated series), as well as early SpongeBob. I was surprised how many lines I remembered from SpongeBob even though it had been years since I had watched it. Dexter’s Lab still entertains my mom and I, and Courage the Cowardly dog is amazing. I alsl still like Yu Yu Hakusho and Kare Kano.

    I tried to re-watch Sailor Moon and couldn’t make it past the first season (I would still say I like the story, but I couldn’t make it to the “Good” parts). I also couldn’t do Inuyasha. I can’t seem to get Rocky and Bullwhinkle either, but for some reason I loved when that show came on during the off hours when I was a kid. To be fair, I can’t tell what shows I don’t like because they were secretly bad, or because I’m now an adult and my tastes have changed.




  • I know it’s dumb, but cellphones. They went from bricks to pretty much super computers. I’m amazed at the stuff I can do on my phone. Music, games, drawing, texting, phone, video call, camera, recorder, ebook, audio book reader, etc.

    Headphones. I’m not an audiophile so I’m sure there are varying qualities, but there are so many different headphones now, almost all Bluetooth. Most are pretty good because the base standard seems higher overall. I remember getting cheap headphones and having then sound awful. Now I buy cheap headphones and it’s really not that bad. And now there noise canceling? Like magic. Hell, getting my first Bluetooth headset made me feel like I had made it (I in fact did not make it, they just became lower in price).

    Video games. There are a llllooootttttt of issues with the gaming industry, but the variety, accessibility, and quality is nuts. My first console was a my grandma’s SNES. My first handheld device was a Gameboy. Not game boy color, just game boy. I’ve watched my grandma and I go from black and white / basic graphics, to being able to see the peach fuzz on someone’s face. I was playing a game and felt the rain from the vibration in my controller. I thought VR was something I might be able to see towards the end of my lifetime, not pretty much at the start of it. I also think how easy it is to connect and play with people is amazing. I can play with my friend across the country, and speak with her, and share my screen, and have her play like she was on the couch with me.
