nostalgia is a powerful thing.

this is the worst because they fucking resolved the damn problem they had with the new car. You piled in all your kids into the van you wanted to keep pristine, the lesson was learned. The episode should have ended with them fucking up saving the old van from the crusher and Leni accidentally spotlighting the resolution for everyone

Nostalgia is a powerful thing that you have to discipline yourself out of believing.

Because you're asking too much from a show that is literally an animated sitcom. Get used to the awful writing, the shoehorned humor and forced diversity.

But it has waifus, so...

I think the idea is to appreciate what you have instead of taking it for granted over the false promises of something better.

Oh yeah, I forgot the only reason this mediocre show is popular on /co/ and /trash/. And yet, they are badly written, one-dimensional characters. Now Nick resorted to pander to the fags with dyke Luna just to score brownie points and keep this show relevant, otherwise it would have been replaced by other new shows

Family Guy of all things did a subversion of this. At the end, they start using their old mattress again, but after realizing poor a condition it's in, they throw it out and go back to the new mattress.

The idea is usually that using a thing for too much time builds memories and affection for said thing.

They are special because of your history with it.

Doesn't everyone has at least one thing like this?

how much money do this two parent make a month while all of their children waste so much money ?

It's a dark world when Family Guy is the one who goes "Yeah, the new one is better.".

>>93650705
No, because I've been fucking poor as balls most of my life and practicality has always triumphed over sentimentality. Old things are what you have when you can't have anything better.

*how poor a condition

Old leather jacket my Dad gave me. It's lining is worn, pocket slightly torn, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.

If someone tore or stole it, I would shit in the gut wounds I would make in them.

>Family Guy subverts a cliche by making the characters callous assholes who don't really care about anything

That's 80% of what makes a good cartoon on /co/.
