Place was good once, but you're not missing anything now. Trying to recapture that magic just feels like Reddit is out of ideas and just desperately trying to remind people of the one good thing they ever did. It's like Al Bundy still hyping up his high school football career because the rest of his life has been downhill since then.
Reminds me of YouTube rewind.
