Why do autistic cope this hard that Blockbuster is gone? Surely the library can be a substitute for physical media renting if their autism prevents them from digital downloads or streaming.

Autistic people have a hard time adjusting from their routine anon, that's why they're autistic
Because libraries are full of hobos jacking off in the computer lab.
or kids playing roblox, libraries are basically a all-in-one homeless shelter and free babysitter that any sane person avoids
Then just pirate or stream for free, why be a sperg about it?
Not in first world countries
Sorry that was just me
It was comfy going to a Blockbuster, browsing through all the b-movie action/sci-fi/horror, finding something awesome and then getting a few snacks on the way out
we need a thread for session 9 and other lesser known late 90s-early00s horror
Be the change you want to see on Cinemaphile anon

Frick right off. c**tbuster had nothing but normie tier movies. No Faces of Death, no Toxic Avenger, no Blood Feast etc...!!!FACT!!!
You see, Zoomer. People used to go outside. This is before wireless internet, smartphones, Doordash, work-from-home, distance-learning, Amazon delivery, etc.
America was a majority White country and, without a terminally online populace, it was generally an interesting and safe place to go out, explore, and find friends/acquaintances or random activities spontaneously.
Along with community events, regular sports, clubs, leagues, congregations, and other social avenues, people enjoyed the experience of going to the rental store on the way home from somewhere, and felt genuine excitement stumbling upon a tangible flick in physical space. Sure, the movie-watching itself might be the same, but it's like comparing sex with a random hoe you found online and foreplay + sex with a girl you actually pulled in real life.
I literally suggested that the library is a viable alternative for your consumerism, sped.
which was summarily dismissed as a viable option, moron:
I bet you think doing your grocery shopping at 7-11 is a substitute too.
>which was summarily dismissed as a viable option
It's okay that you got BTFO. Don't take it so personally.
>You give a cliche reddit tier autistic sentimental rant
Your poor Mother, autismo.
Lol is this sperg literally saying he can't socialize without Blockbuster? Rofl what an autistic moron.
Lol, nope, I guess not.
What's your excuse, Zoom Zoom?
Haha holy shit, imagine lacking self-awareness this much.
The world you loved is gone and is never coming back and that is hilarious to me
not that anon but it’s definitely preferable to have experienced and witnessed a way of life pre-internet, even if you still have to life in the soulless landscape that came after.
Is it better to be born blind or have eyesight only to lose it?
You can't miss something you never experienced
Idk if he actually did this but now I’m picturing a man who looks like a homeless George Costanza walking up to random people on a block buster and inviting them over to watch whatever soft core porno he was renting.
Anyone with a life didn't have it evaporate because they got a smartphone. Rueing a life gone by of which he was never a part. How wistful.
It’s why they give them entire racks of Barney videos or cartoons. They just get hooked on one thing.
needs that weird blockbuster smell
Blockbuster was always the shittiest video store chain, they didn’t even carry porn
boo hoo, poor coomer
My dad always took me to a trailer-turned-video-store called Dalton’s Home Video. It was bright purple, and it had mostly porn and some PS2 games. Blockbuster was like forty minutes away.
Because
>Muh comfy xD
>try to rent a campsite with RV hookups
>all sites are full
>have to park in a regular spot without gas or electric
>walk around the campsite
>some autistic guy rented out the last plot with electricity to run a pop-up shelter blockbuster
>asks me if i brought children and if they would like to rent a movie
this is some of the gayest shit i've ever seen. take this to a fricking anime convention or burning man or something. don't fricking do this somewhere where families are trying to camp
>Going to a parking lot with an RV
>panties in a bunch because you don't have easy access to gas or electricity
>literally a pop-up video rental store nearby
That's not camping, get over yourself
>drive a minivan full of children to a campground
>pitch a tent
REAL camping
>drive an RV to the same exact campground
>live out of the RV
NOT camping
every wilderness cuck dreams of a fricking RV. whether it's a massive camper or a fricking tiny house in a sprinter, EVERY camper wishes they had a sweet setup. also most kids at a campground want to meet other kids not watch a fricking movie. they can just watch movies on their phones i bet they don't even have a DVD player in the fancy RV
>driving to a campsite
>REAL camping
LOL, stay in the city homosexual
stay mad loser, enjoy getting eaten by chiggers and explaining the scabs aren't from the AIDS.
>tfw Family Video died because of covid
>90-00s
>have mentally handicapped cousin
>he got money from the government every month
>spent all of it on collecting vhs, dvd and cd soundtracks
>would buy the official star trek vhs that cost like $20/episode
>lived with my grandparents
>I would try and watch as many movies in a weekend
weird timing was there was a big legal dispute in the family right when streaming started, don't know if he still has his collection
It's NPC's who never knew the joy of going to mom & pop videostores and renting grubby Horror and Exploitation films that Shitbuster wouldn't stock and Netflix shills who were trying to generate interest in their trash show about wienerbuster. If you have nostalgia for this soulless corporate chain then you can perish in the flames of Hell for eternity!!!FACT!!!
This. Locally owned rental places were always 100% better. Mine had all the classic B-horror to rent for $1 PLUS free bag of popcorn from the popcorn maker. Blockbuster was for normies looking to rent the latest Ben Stiller comedy. One thing Blockbuster was usually superior at was video game rentals. I remember every time a new game came out, my local place would usually only have 1 or 2 copies, and you had to check every day if it was available for rent. And that was only for the big popular release games. Blockbuster always had many copies of every new game, for every single console.
You just explained why blockbuster was better. Movie and game prices were almost the same and you could get a whole weekend worth of fun from a game instead of a few hours.
> Movie and game prices were almost the same.
No way, at least not where I was from. I remember the prices at my local place specifically because I was there so often:
> "New release" movies:
$3 for 2 days.
> "Old" movies
$1 for 1 day.
> "New" games
$8 for 5 days
> "Old" games
$5 for 5 days
You could rent movies for a day or two, but my place rented games a minimum of 5 days. Sometimes you just want to spend $2 for weekend movies. Plus, you're comparing two different media. It isn't an either/or thing.
don’t feed the fricking namegays
I have good memories of hanging out at Blockbuster but I don't exactly cry over it being gone.
Consumerism as a replacement for a personality, they are exactly the same as the funko pop redditors they shit talk just with slightly different expression.
