Retrojerking

The trend of using the 1980s as theming and aesthetic to try and invoke a sense of nostalgia in a piece of media. Particularly the use of things like VHS filters and synthwave music.

"This new analog horror video game with a synthwave soundtrack is just pure retrojerking"
"Oh I dont care for Stranger Things, it's just corporate retrojerking"

retromarking

Reading off someone else's bingo card to verify whether previous squares have already been provided and then marking your card accordingly. Some call this teamwork...others would call it dishonorable.

After reading off of Lauren's bingo card and retromarking his own, Mike and Lauren were both ineligibalized for the remainder of the game. Oooohh...
