The 00s Decade is Almost Over...

[Guest Dirty Protest]

Culturally its been the best decade yet, but thats the nature of media.

Me, I just got old and im left with more questions than can ever be answered, but trying to catch up is really good for pub quizzes.

[chenGOD]

i hope i'm not pissy when i grow up

 

 

being pissy is the best part about growing up. NOW GET THE FUCK OFF MY LAWN!

[pcock]

 

 

your entire proper life doesn't start until you get out of the sheltered bubble that is school.

My advice: stay in school for as long as you can.

 

 

heh

 

entirely disagree with you there, your life from early teenagehood for the next ten years defines who you really are. being forced to work and earn your own money to live is just an unpleasant side-effect of later life, and doesnt really change your actual personality, which is, to me, what people actually are.

Wait.What do you mean by personality? My personality hasn't changed since I was old enough to have one, I've always been hot tempered, arrogant, and stubborn (which is a shitty combination) but I do have some geniality in me as well.

I'm talking about your outlook on life and your behavioral patterns...

really? i changed a huge amount beginning aged 11-12, and started becoming the person i am now.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Musically it's been pretty meh for me. No big revelations.

[Blir]

Nobody cares about the good things that happened, so I'm going to go to the trouble of highlighting some of the worst things that have happened this decade:

 

Destruction of the World Trade Centre

Hurricane Katrina

Indonesian tsunami

Recession

War in Iraq

War in Afghanistan

War in Georgia

Other wars as well

With Teeth

Year Zero

Autotune

Faded jeans

Reality TV

Skytree leaving

Weed joining

[pylonbitch]

lol.

 

i had quite a nice time, on and off.

 

 

bunch of whinging ninnies.

 

 

wehen all you've got to moan about are lifestyle, culture and political leanings then you're doing a lot better than over half the world's population who live with at least one of the four horsemen on a daily basis.

[lumpenprol]

got aids

 

lost aids

[gaarg]

My life has drastically improved in this decade, though it seems that the world in the whole hasn't. One thing I think about these days is how we live in the future, at least in the the future of a few decades ago. We use mini portable machines to talk to people around the world, we have music in them and even photography and video equipment. The internet is become a parallel world in its own, we fly with planes like nothing, and almost all luxury stuff is available to most people. Some things that used to be basic are becoming luxury, like fresh water and thats also sf in a way. Looking like that I feel like in a future novel, being debatable whether its better or worse...

So not true.

 

Well...I was thinking stupid luxurious gadgets and stuff. Everybody can get himself a radio od cellphone or tv I think, those things were gold a few decades ago. Still, those same people that may own several pc's or whatever (that they got still working from trash) still cant get decent clothing, food and especially medical support. I was actually trying to point to how things get a very different in time.

[Guest ezkerraldean]

some of it was shit, some of it was wicked.

[AJW]

It started better than it ended.

 

But I suppose that can be said of so many things

[OneToThirtySix]

it was all shit apart from analord and wanking

lol

[chim]

I dunno I grew up in this shit, it's hard to put in perspective. But I basically spent most of it longing for the 80's, then the 60's, the 70's and finally the 90's

[acidphakist]

beat cancer, got married, got divorced, fought depression, failed out of school.

 

Not bad for a decade.

Yeah, my decade was awful . Basically fought to save my poverty stricken parents while they saved me. Got depression,. Got older. lost my hair. Hopefully a better person, still kind of lost

Congrats dude!

[YEK]

nothing special. big things in the future ( oh fo sho)

[acidphakist]

thanks all, yes it was the sweaty nut kind.

[Guest inteeliguntdesign]

The 90s represented my youth so I'll always look upon it favorably. However, 00s politics: 9/11, invasion of two countries and the increase in terrorism that arose from that, islamophobia and then, thankfully, obama. Music: I stopped listening to popular music and it's no longer aimed at me so meh, although there was drukqs and analord. The proliferation of the internet was probably the best thing about the 00s.

 

What do we call the next decade, the tens?
