I feel like the 2000s is basically nostalgia-proof. Nobody will want to touch it or 2010 or 2020 or any decade after that.
What is there to remember? 9/11?
The decade the iPhone ruined the internet?
When everything became the same as it is right now?
When the entire world started to feel like one big pile of mud, mixing together like a deep dark swamp?
There will never be a nostalgic movie made about any decade past the 90s.
The 90's is the last time people were happy, so there's no point in nostalgia past that decade.
I think everyone has soured on nostalgia, they did 80s nostalgia for so long that everyone got sick of it
they won't when they realize that it was the next to the end of their happy times and young people didn't understand how good we had it
Perhaps this means people we'll be force to acknowledge that they spent more time remininscing about the "happy" times than making the present time a good place to live in.
ever wonder why your leaders keep talking about the past as if it were dark times? like the 1950s were hell? Like the 1980s were a drug fuelled mess? it's because they want you to think the only way is forward, into the actual hell. the only way to be happy is to go back to the happy times and say no to modernity.
Except the 80's were a drug-fuelled mess. Also, the media keeps reheating all the happy stuff from those times while not understanding why and how they worked (context), just treating them like a Greatest Hits or an aesthetic choice.
In the end, all of this is the same idea: Just focusing on the ups and downs of the past but ignoring the road ahead.
>I feel like the 2000s is basically nostalgia-proof
Absolutely delusional xoomer raving. There's been 2000's nostalgia for years already. PS2 and Nokia 3310 were both released in 2000. Windows XP was released in 2001
>PS2 and Nokia 3310 were both released in 2000. Windows XP was released in 2001
who tries to remember that shit? nobody. mindless consumerism that even the 80s and 90s couldn't match
Name three nostalgic things from the 90's that aren't products.
nta but
>the park next my school
>walking through the ditches during summer break
>sledding down my street in winter
>when construction started on a new subdivision and the crew built bike ramps out of the dirt they excavated
Can you even name three things you're nostalgic for that aren't products? No decade attached, just some good childhood memories.
those things are 90's related, theyre just things you specifically did in the 90's
Correct, they are 90's related
Sure, doing all of those in the 90's. You're not too bright, are ya?
>Correct, they are 90's related
Based moron
>those things are 90's related
Hey, anon, you said it not me. Next time double check that you aren't doing a le hecking freudian slip.
Those kind of memories are not decade specific, every single generation has those. Sure I can name memories of me playing with fireworks with my friends, or building a hut in the woods, but those have nothing to do with the decade. Kids did those things in the 50's, and they do it now.
Perhaps I should have been more specific, name three 90's specific nostalgic things that are not products, you still didn't do it
>Name three nostalgic things from the 90's that aren't products.
-the lack of technology in our daily lives where you weren't in front of a screen during and after work
the lack of worry about fashion and consumerism in those days; people just dressed down and didn't care about buying fancy shit to wear or show off
-the last time you and everybody you knew didn't worry about money because everybody worked but were still very happy since life was cheap to live.
-the last time you barely ever saw a non-white face in your daily life
These things are only associated with the 90's by those who were kids then. It's absolutely crazy you can list "people not worrying about money" and not realize this
That's how nostalgia works, yes.
nos·tal·gia
noun
a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations
Did you think it meant something else?
>These things are only associated with the 90's by those who were kids then.
nope. my parents felt the same way when they were 30.
lots of people who were 20, 30, and 40 that i knew back then remember the 90s fondly.
>The 90's is the last time people were happy
The 90's is the last time you were happy
nope. last time I was happy was before COVID. that ruined my happiness and I am still recovering from 2020-2022.
Saltburn just came out, bozo

Peak Silent Gen graphic design old heads doing their thing, got an afterglow of it through the 90s early 00s.
>ive got nostalgia for digging holes when i was a child, what a quintessential 2010s memory that is
More of a 2000's thing, but decent LARP
>I feel like the 2000s is basically nostalgia-proof
how frickin out of touch are you, grandpa?
The early 00s were comfy as frick anon. New computer tech was coming out every month, people had flip phones and mp3 players, life was just better back then.
Like other people ITT have said, the early-mid 2000s were good but after that it stops.
There's not a critical mass of good pop culture now and the time period itself is very dull to live through. People have this notion that after a period of time things will automatically become nostalgic and therefore good but really the stuff we hold up as nostalgic is the cherrypicked best parts of the past, there's plenty of old films, games etc from when I was younger that I don't care for. Remember all that landfull indie shit in the 2000s? No one has come around on that yet. Remember brown an bloom video games? No one misses that. Bad culture will be left behind and we are producing lots of it.
