00s nostalgia thread

I've been debating for a little while now if I wanted to make a 00s nostalgia thread on one had the 00s don't conjure up as fond of memories as the 80s or 90s but on the other hand we are half way through the 10s in just a few short years the shroomery will be gaining members born after the millennium and it might be interesting to see what artifacts will be carried into the future

Could just be that my childhood was pretty much coming to a close when the 00's rolled around, but I don't really have any nostalgia for the 00's. I can't really recall much that would really define the era for me. Majority of that decade is just a lot of getting high and getting drunk and constantly working towards the next time. I wasn't out playing flashlight tag, exploring wooded areas, digging in creeks for tadpoles/turtles, watching life altering TV shows or any of that shit..

I was born in 85 as well. 15 is nearing the end of childhood which is really the only nostalgic memories I have. I shoulda listened to all the old people telling me to enjoy my childhood because they would be the best years of my life.

Yeah, I'm kind of at a loss to think of much that really was distinctive to that decade as well. Farscape I guess?

Damnit now my wife is going to post stalk me, see that and bug me to download the series for her for like the 20th time 
I'm not positive when I finally got around to watch Farscape, it was either at the very near end of the 00's or it was like 2010+. When I finally watched it, it was already old as hell and only did because reruns were regularly airing.

I think I first heard about Farscape on the Shroomery while it was still airing. I remember downloading the episodes from some Farscape IRC channel.
Some other cool shows from that period: Stargate Atlantis (kind of felt like a knockoff of Farscape in some ways but cool in its own right)

Black Books (semi-surreal UK workplace comedy)

Nostalgia threads are very Wordsworthian. Looking back always reminds me of the "Innocence v. Experience" ideology of the Romantic era.
I was 20 when y2k rolled around. I feel like I've grown as an adult at least a few times. 20-24, 25-30, 30 to present.
It'd be nice to be younger again (who doesn't want to be in the grand scheme of things), but there's part of me that doesn't feel nostalgic at all about events or pop culture.
It's certainly an interesting period of time. I'll likely change my mind in a few years. 90's were better anyway.

There's a 20-year technological delay in Australia. Kakashi doesn't know what the rest of the world is like outside that floating rock.

Sure he does. He can't in all good faith go around constantly saying Americans are oblivious to anything that isn't American when he's oblivious to the rest of the world..
