Prostalgia

(N.) The renaissance of culture and technology of the late 19th - mid 20th century, followed by "Prostalgia" or "Prostalgics". This culture movement is infused with modern day accommodations, and is based in the Baltimore, MD/Washington DC area, (which are major Hipster hot spots) and this movement is the classier brother of the hipster movement.

How to spot a prostalgic person;
What music they like, what they wear, and they're overall appearance tend to be that of your grandmother/father when they were young. These people tend to be confused with Hipsters, however, prostalgic people tend to uphold old values and ways of life, only using modern luxuries when strictly necessary. Prostalgic people also are connoisseurs of class, whereas hipsters have modern lifestyles infused with only a small bit of old world items.

Pure breakdown of prostalgic people to average people;

Avg. Person - 90% modern, 10% vintage
Hipsters - 80% modern, 15% vintage, 5% Starbucks
Prostalgics - +70% vintage, 30% modern

Here is an example of a Prostalgic being recognized at a cafe;
"Hey, is that a hipster over there at that cafe?" She asked.
"No, he's just prostalgia." He said.
"How do you know?"
"He's using a typewriter instead of a computer, see."

Brostalgia

A wistful or excessively sentimental yearning for return to a past period with your bro or bros.
Dude: Yo, let's steal the napkin-holder from this bar.
Widowed-Bro: . . . nah (disappointedly turns away)
Dude: You alright man?
Widowed-Bro: . . . (Thinking about a time he and his bros took a road trip to New Mexico and stole a horse-cop's horse and used it to commandeer an oxen and 12 hundred dollars worth of cattle)
Dude: Dude!
Widowed-Bro: Sorry . . . just thinking about this thing me and my bros once stole
Dude: You need to stop being so brostalgic and live in reality.
Widowed-Bro: I can't help my brostalgia. I loved Ted "T-Killa" Jones. He was my main bro . . . Goddamn it! I told him not to play 13 consecutive games of Flip Cup with Everclear grain alcohol. (A single brostalgic tear rolls down his cheek)

"By their property to induce and facilitate childbirth, increasing vaginal dilation, is that many obstetricians recommend to their patients to increase their sex late in pregnancy, specially in the days before the parturition to increase the absorption of prostaglandin of the sperm from the vagina".

Prostalgic

a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the future, typically for a vision of what is likely to happen, typically accompanied with happy personal associations.
As I helped my father learn to use his new phone, I was overcome with prostalgia as I envisioned an older version of myself needing a similar level of care to master the holodeck. These prostalgic feelings almost always catch me in moments with my parents, especially now that I have a child of my own to track these passing years against.

I had a total case of penostalgia last night, so I drunk-dialled Stefan!

Oh, I'm so down about not seeing Dave anymore, all I can think about is him and the sex we had. I think I have penostalgia.
