Something that makes me sad.

</div>I remember when I was a kid when I went to the playground there were zones for different age groups. Even when I was primary school age I physically couldn't do much of the section meant for my age at the time (lots of steep climbing); I remember mostly staying with the equipment intended for toddlers even as I was physically outgrowing it (despite it being at my developmental level regarding motor skills. I frequently had physical therapy appointments after school).

What makes me sad is when a piece of online media that I like gets deleted out of existence. I'm now still looking for a lot of lost media and haven't received any help for about 98% of it. If anyone can and could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Funny enough, I remember Disney Adventures (aimed at 7-14 or so) doing a "tribute top 10" thing when Friends ended. I know Friends was a MAJOR pop culture phenomena and its final episode would naturally be big news everywhere, but kids watching it, was that really a thing??? As mentioned in another thread, my parents were super strict, and so I missed out on a LOT of TV in my childhood/youth, but I would still be perplexed that kids would find enjoyment in a show like Friends. 

Ditto for the Breakfast Club. I remember my own parent trying to push their beloved "older people" movies on me when I was a lot younger than I am now, and my just trying to put on a "good face" for them (even if I was bored senseless or confused). 

Duck Dynasty was absolutely ultra popular, mainly with the conservative religious crowd which pushed it EVERYWHERE because you know, religious and conservative. There wasn't a lot of "mainstream conservative/religious content" on cable TV at the time, and whole families watched it together. So I could see kids merch being a thing for it.

My own parents remember next door neighbors just renting some R rated movie to watch as a family with their high school and elementary aged children and they thought that was pretty crazy (seeing as their kids casually told my parents this casually, it probably wasn't the first time, either). But standards are also different across families and cultures and countries-while there is nothing particularly "disturbing" about Demon Slayer IMO, the fact that it got HAPPY MEAL TOYS in Japan was still pretty crazy to me. You can also get away with airing a lot more salty content on European and Japanese TV compared to more Puritan America TV, especially prior to the 2010s. Heck, Netflix's Glitter Force showed that 4kids editing was STILL happening as recently as the 2010s!!!

Yeah I’ve seen pre teen kids wearing Friends t-shirts before. I watched Friends in passing as a kid because my parents watched it and I knew kids at school who watched it (maybe because of their parents but who knows). 

Im giving Duck Dynasty a pass because it is popular amongst the conservative crowd. 

The TFI cult indoctrination tapes are on YT kids. I also recall seeing this really unsettling Apple commercial from the 80s with the YT kids disclaimer under it.
