Get the Beer Goggles mug.A metaphor for someone viewing something in the past as much better than it actually was refusing to remember how bad something may have been.
People wearing nostalgia goggles usually wanna go back in time & live in a certain period again, forgetting everything wrong with that time period.
Nostalgia goggle users often prefer old crappy versions of TV shows & movies they grew up watching rather than the new & improved versions.
Ex 1: a Dragonball fan who grew up with the Ocean Dub that hates the Funimation dub for being different is wearing nostalgia goggles, refusing to admit the Funi dub is much more professional & authentic than the amateur sounding Ocean dub.
Ex 2: a woman who grew up watching My Little Pony who hates Friendship is Magic for being different has a bad case of nostalgia goggles.
Ex 3: an old person who thinks the 1950s were much better than the present day in every way & wishes to go back is wearing nostalgia goggles, forgetting that we had half the conveniences, technology, development, infrastructure, movies, etc we do today.

Old Russian: our motherland isnt what it used to be. I miss the Soviet Union & I think we should go back. Turn full communist again & take back the republics.
Normal Russian: I agree some things were better back then but take off the nostalgia goggles. We were like North Korea back then. This was a terrible place to live, we were just more unified & patriotic then.

Get the googlewhack mug.Google+ is a social networking site by Google. It was created sometime around when Youtube was sold to Google. When Youtube was sold to Google, all hell broke loose. Youtube became more and more worse and at least 75% of people that currently use Youtube would agree. Basically, Google is slowly turning Youtube into a social networking site, instead of an anonymous video sharing site.
Thanks to Google+, the following has happened:
- The comments section was completely revamped. (They're biggest mistake)
- Channel layouts are changed frequently, and nobody is happy about it.
- People are almost physically forced to link their Google account, and know there is no way to sign-up for Youtube without signing up for Google+
- Google now has a worse name, which is sad, knowing that it's the best search engine.
Thanks, Google+.
