Well, this is really a question.... "What about The Rewind makes you want to visit it so often and what makes you intrigued enough to post?"
I often wonder what is running through everyone's mind while they are here. I personally see this place as a chance to reminisce about the 80s, which I ruled btw, with others that "get" why I love it so much.
But it's way more than all that really. I see this place as like an 80's movie and we are all characters in my mind. I visualize everyone as I post and it's fun thinking how cool we all really are in our own unique way ya know.
So it's an opportunity to relive what I enjoyed the most about the 80s and I hope everyone else is enjoying the ride! Goof On Rewinders! Posted by isis9968 (Member # 1780) on :
That's exactly how I feel too. I think if there was any room left for another reality show (which everyone knows how I feel about those)-that we would make the best one ever.
That people would stayed tuned every week to see what is going on.
Because, everyone that starts posting on here, has stayed for awhile, and even the ones that either don't post anymore, or never posted very much, they eventually pop back up again, out of the blue. And sometimes it is interesting to see a name you hadn't seen in awhile.
Like Deathbystereo80- even though I still talk to her, she popped in not long ago, and posted and was gone again, and I saw Banshee posted again, and there's alot of people that go awhile and don't post and then all of a sudden there they are again.
I really miss RiverPhoenix4Life, I grew to really like her, and I wish she'd come back, and Ali, she was a big poster too.
Everyone who is here at the moment I have to say even if I don't agree with certain view points that I still respect their views and even people who it seems I might not even like, deep down know that I like ya, even if I don't show it as often as I do to others, I still think everyone has a equal contribution to this site, and I think the whole thing is awesome.
What keeps me coming back is the very deep friendships I have formed with everyone, and everyone does come up with cool things and new things to discuss all the time, which keeps everything hopping and poppin.
I like the Goofiness of everyone's humour.
I have to always check in to see how many times Valley can say cool in a thread too, or makes mention to the fact that he was cool at one time, and still is in his own mind.
I LOVE the REWIND!!!

"What Make This Place So Trippindicular"
1. IT's AN 80s SITE!
2. The Movies SmartMenu to the left of the screen
3. The Message Boards
4. The Fast-Rewind Memebers like: Nick & Paul(cause if were'nt for these awesome dudes there would be no Fast) Isis, McFly, JPL937, Valleycat, Cindymancini, DeVo, Rocksteadyflamethrower, Bionic Bigfoot, Muffy Tupperman,StevenHW,Nomisdrol,mamamiasweetpeaches, Obscurus LUPA, JULES, SamHain 666, Tres Foxy, The Horned King, Hipstermom27,

6. We don't try and hurt each others feeling and we have respect for one another.
7. Everybody really knows what they are talking about when it comes to 80's Music, Movies, fashion etc.
8. That picture of Isis, Cindy, and Muffy(are'nt they some very attractive women)

You know what C.T. , those are all of Valleycat's same reasons too, are you sure you aren't his alter ego??? Maybe there is more going on here than I could ever guess, maybe everyone on here is one person with 20 alter egos???
Posted by ValleyCat (Member # 1322) on :
Nice try Richman!
Btw C.T., I believe Deb still visits here alot. Who knows maybe she is reading what you just posted. Ya Think?
Isis I think C.T. is more your alter ego than mine, because just like you...he is always reminding us how attractive you are! Sounds like something you might post fer sure.
As if
Posted by isis9968 (Member # 1780) on :
Oh....just like how your always reminding us how cool you are...hmmmmm....very interesting....Maybe the 3 of us are all the same person, like I said....who will ever know???? Posted by jlp937 (Member # 1877) on :
If she did post here then I wish she would chime in now and then. Especially on the Valley Girl stuff.
Boy there is so much to love about this site to even mention here. But let's start with the fact that we all share a love for anything that has to do with the 80s. WOW tripendicular man! Also the fact that everyone gets a long really well with one another and is so supportive of each other.
The fact that we never get tired of talking about the same topics over and over. We welcome newcomers with open arms.
I love the fact that Devo knows a lot of movies that people can only give tidbits of info to. That ISIS is our mom and gives insight into a lot of topics that involve not only movies but regular pop culture, food, and society of the 80s.
Hey I would like to know where this picture of ISIS, Muffy and Cindy is anyway???? Someone help me with that.

I keep coming back to this site becasuse it's a place where everybody knows your name...and they're always glad you came. And sometimes our troubles are all the same. And the veal isn't too bad either.
Posted by isis9968 (Member # 1780) on :
JLP, I pulled it back up for you...
It is the Video Vixen thread.

Right BRO!! And we know how to make the best Popcorn ever!!
Posted by C.T. (Member # 2903) on :
I wish ValleyCat! besides Deb is a superstar and she does'nt even know i'm alive. And another thing how would you know if it was D.F. you are talking to. She probably as an staged name and i can't blame her cause you and i know that if everybody was to know that she was currently on the boards everybody would bombard her with VALLEY GIRL guestions. And that may get her a little annoyed. But the fact D.F. has graced her presents on the boards is COOL enough for me. Hope i did'nt pour it on to thick Posted by Obscurus Lupa (Member # 2700) on :
Well, there's not much that can be added that hasn't already been said . . .
I totally agree with what you guys have been saying.
I love the fact that you guys are so accepting of anyone who comes in. Believe me, I've been to boards that've been really rude for posting something completely innocent, even if I knew the people there.
And for some reason unknown to me, my name gets mentioned once every five threads or so. O.o

Spot on, Lupa. During my time on the Rewind, everyone has been so fantastic. Even when I've posted a topic that has been bought up in the past, no one is rude about it, as can happen on other sites.
The greatest thrill for me being a Rewinder is seeing my name mentioned in milestone posts - eg when Isis hit 3000 and she was writing about what other Rewinders bought to the site, I felt honoured to know that I was considered to be a regular.
My appreciation for the 80's has definately grown since joining the Rewind. I first joined just to find the answer to a question, but since then, I've learnt so much about music and movies I was unaware of. It's great too, to learn about life in the 80's through the eyes of people in other countries - different foods, drinks, traditions.... and that is what will always be so cool about this site
