Unlike nostalgia, a longing for something good from your past and reflecting on the good old days, anti-nostalgia is when you remember something shitty from your past and being glad things are better now. The bad old days.
Jake: Bro, remember back in 2010 when we used to play Halo together on the Xbox 360? Those were the good old days, huh?
Nathan: Nah dude, I remember in 2010 when I was about to get a 20 kill streak in Reach and got the red ring of death. Had to get a new system. That shit gives me anti-nostalgia.

Get the frightful nostalgia mug.Feeling nostalgic for a time which you didn't experience. Nostalgiosity is a combination of the words "Nostalgia" and "Curiosity". It is used in contexts where you would be nostalgic but it is logically impossible for you to be because you were simply not there. Your feeling of nostalgia is therefore not real, and is more similar to curiosity. What you are are actually feeling is a kind of curious nostalgia, nostalgiosity.
Nostalgiosity is by definition only experienced by the younger generation. In general, their views are do not represent accurately the times which they are referring to, and often times the things they feel nostalgiostic about are simply wrong. Hence, nostalgiosity is a very generation specific feeling that relates to how the olden times must "appear" to the newer generation. Nostalgiosity about a specific time cannot be felt by the original generation.

Get the Nostalgiosity mug.A nostalgic orgasm, fundamentally is when an individual is confronted with a bunch of items of various types (videos, video games, music, people, etc.) that all elicit nostalgia/a "sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past" (thanks Google for that) in that person (because all of these things are somehow connected to whatever that individual has experienced in the past) on a correspondingly (if not better so or less so) huge/tremendous/big/overwhelming/etc. scale, such that it resembles the overwhelmingly blissful feeling that you get when you orgasm/take drugs (which give you the feeling of many orgasms), except this particular brand of orgasm is not from sex or masturbating; it is caused by nostalgia. In simpler terms, this "nostalgic orgasm" feels like an orgasm that is caused by nostalgia on an overwhelming scale, so it is kind of different from an actual one but is fundamentally the same in that both give extreme amounts of pleasure (though they are different in their style of giving the pleasure, kind of like how Arabs and Americans are fundamentally the same in that they both are human beings who eat food, drink water, etc. but may do so in their own distinct styles).
Jeff opened up Google Chrome, went on YouTube, and then proceeded to open up a lot of tabs, on each a video containing something that he recognizes from his past, thus eliciting nostalgia in him, but on a huge, overwhelming scale, in turn causing him to have what Urban-Dictionary expert CreeperDude567 calls a "nostalgic orgasm."
