So Retro

The phrase is used ironically in a way to describe something that tries to mimic a retro theme, but in a way that's considered lazy and/or inaccurate
This can be applied to anything that fails to be retro, like an 16 bit sprite being in something that's supposed to be 8 bit for example

There's several cases of this, and of course it doesn't just apply to video games specifically

"OH MY GOD GUYS LOOK AT THIS 8 BIT PIXEL ART THAT I MADE OF MYSELF , I AM SO RETRO!!!!"
*The art in question is likely something that is made poorly and uses more colors than what an 8 bit console could handle*

I came across Traci Lords today on Porn hub. Needless to say, it was quite the retro-spank.

retro-stanning

When you BEGIN stan someone, mainly a musical group that has already split or disbanded.

The term is inspired by the word "retroactive," which means "taking effect from a date in the past."

It's not really nostalgia, because you were never really there.

So it feels like you are stanning a period in the past, and you are mentally there.

1. Since JPop was gatekept for a million years, now I'm retro-stanning King & Prince as 5/6 members in 2025.

2. Retro-stanning *insert former famous girl group or boy band* because the hype is gone now.
