Implying that this isn’t a great date night…?

Yeah. I know this is supposed to make us all say “fuck, I’m old” and all, but this just sounds like a fantastic night.

Yeah, and I don’t think you need to be in your 30s to enjoy DDR. That game is timeless.

There’s a bar near me that is crammed full of arcade machines from all the decades and it is crammed with people of all ages having a blast and so many young people on dates. Games like DDR are still insanely popular and there’s line ups for Daytona USA even though it’s older than plenty of the people playing it.

This scene was from An Extremely Goofy Movie, released on 2000.

But the point does stand…

Point me in the direction of the 30-something women who want to nerd out for hours about the Sega Dreamcast before spending all night beating Space Channel 5.

Nerdy introverted women exist, but they’re just hanging out at home playing games too.

oh I absolutely know some people, but you’re going to have to be lenient on your definition of women.

I’m not sure what’s regrettable about this information.

In the next scene where the date takes place, they embrace their old school cool, knock it out of the park, and have a blast. It genuinely romanticizes being this old and made me look up to being this old when I watched as a kid.

All this meme is telling me is, “Congrats, you made it, now go find people in your cohort and live it up with them in ways that mean things to you, even if the kids think you’re cringe,” and that’s wonderful.
