I mean if you still felt connected to them, they wouldn't be past interests, would they?
I used to be really interested in Duck comics, and while they still have a special place in my heart, at some point I just couldn't keep collecting them.
Did you happen to hit your head?
Lightning strike?

Yes, I was a teenager. Around my mid-teens, to be precise. "Student" means I study at a university.Monoochrom said:2. I'm going to wager that 2004-2005 you were a Teenager, if not a Kid (not sure what your Profile means by Student), so it shouldn't be too surprising, you probably just listened to it too much and lost interest and you didn't develope the way they did.
And I don't say you should share my opinion. I'm just saying that right now I can't feel anything right now. I don't even have any more of their songs. Which is extremely unusual for me. Just for comparison, I still listen to some of songs from when I started developing a taste for music (instead of saying "I like everything" when I meant "I have no preferences"). I have a sample of everything I've ever felt significant. Heck, I even have a couple that utterly piss me off and have always pissed me off...and I'm not sure why I still keep them around - I always listen the first 30 or so seconds before changing to something different.Monoochrom said:I personally can't share your opinion, basically, Linkin Park has been the Soundtrack to my life thus far, which at times has been oddly specific. I can't really think of anything I don't like, although I did have to listen to A Thousand Suns twice before I really got into it. But, I also don't constantly listen to music or exclusively one Band. Linkin Park is nonetheless my favorite band.
It's like falling off a cliff.Jonluw said:"Hi, my name is Chased.

Personally, I dislike people hating a medium just out of a notion that everything produced in that medium contains the same theme.The Shadowlord said:Well, nothing great but I can't stand Anime anymore. Yeah, I wasn't a major fan even back in the day, but I tried watching Wolf's Rain and there was just so much angst it's unbelievable. Then, when I look back, I realised there was so much angst in everything I've ever watched. I realised that all anime was was different series of angst for different reasons. And I just couldn't deal with it.
Then I got annoyed by the very reason anime is so popular. I dislike whole cultures adoring a thing just for its country of origin or for the style of artwork used to make it.
Feel free to. Of course, I didn't summarise my entire reasons for disliking the medium. I'm sure I'd still be typing if I did. The whole thing just makes me feel bored, so I can't express any interest on it. But of course, this is my opinion. Feel free to think your own way.Jonluw said:Personally, I dislike people hating a medium just out of a notion that everything produced in that medium contains the same theme.
Same thing for me. And then, one day eleven years after I quit reading the paperbacks with Italian duck comics, I bought one on a whim. Now I've subscribed again.Jonluw said:Who can?
Everyone has some past interest they can't understand, no?

I sort of hope I'll reach a point where I can start collecting again, but I don't think I should.Queen Michael said:Same thing for me. And then, one day eleven years after I quit reading the paperbacks with Italian duck comics, I bought one on a whim. Now I've subscribed again.Jonluw said:Who can?

That's pretty impressive. I've got the Life and Times in Swedish, but my brother has both it and the companion in English.Jonluw said:I sort of hope I'll reach a point where I can start collecting again, but I don't think I should.Queen Michael said:Same thing for me.

I already own every issue released in Norway between 1948 and 1958 or something, collected in hardbacks, and all the issues between 2003 and 2009 in regular magazine form. Along with The life and times of Scrooge McDuck and the accompanying Companion.
And a good deal of paperbacks (Donald pocket).
I might end up buying the occasional magazine in the future though.
Cool. My examples are in English. Found them in a bookstore at an airport and I couldn't not buy them. I've always been a Big fan of Don Rosa's stories (and Barks's, but that goes without saying). I made a point of separating every issue in my collection that contained a Rosa story from the rest and put them in a separate pile. It lies at the foot-end of my bed at the moment even now.Queen Michael said:That's pretty impressive.
