Nostalgia Ninja

Something from the past you never knew knew existed, but realize as an adult you know everything about them.

Air Supply? Never heard of them. Oh, yeah, I recognize that song. Hey, I know all the words to this one. Wait, I know that one too. Holy crap, they also sang this one?! How do I know all the words of 11 of their songs and never knew who the hell they were?!?! That snuck up on me like a nostalgia ninja!

Nostalgache

Nostalgache is when you get so nostalgic that it hurts. This may be due to several reasons such as missing your past, too many memories at once, or simply just feeling nostalgia over a horrible phase you had. This sensation may stay with you from months to weeks.

Person 1: I'm playing Club Penguin rewritten

Person 2: I played that too. It gave me major Nostalgache

nostalgia crash

The overwhelming feeling that life was better in the past and the inescapable feeling of wanting to go back to that time.

I found an old video game I used to play with all my friends when we were kids. The nostalgia crash took up the rest of my day.

nostalgiacore

a segment of aging rock music that elicits longing or affection for the past, typically performed by an artist that has continued making music but is most associated with the era of their early or hit songs

Green Day's totally nostalgiacore now because I can only listen to their old stuff. Dookie makes me miss the '90s.
