I know nothing about fashion, but I also tend to find guessing the 2010s surprisingly difficult compared to be previous decades, some of which I never lived in. This does seem to be a symptom of fashion in previous decades being way more recognizable and distinct. Fashion for common people in the 2010s similar to be very general without much change. The same with cars and the design of most non-tech sector things. You basically have to see a specific reference to get something in the 2010s right.

@@panner11 I mostly look at fashion first before anything, haha! Usually things like hairstyles, shoes, or the cut of pants makes it easier to guess for any decade, really. I found the latter 70s and early 80s difficult though because there seemed to be a lot of overlap, surprisingly. I was given a picture where the people were wearing bell bottoms and wearing very 70s-esque hair -- turns out it was 1983! That shocked me lol. As for the 2010s, I find that it's very specific articles of clothing that I immediately recognize, like ballet flats or beanies. Also, the cut of the jeans makes guessing the 2010s pretty easy for me. Skinny jeans are often a pretty good giveaway.

As a kid, when our family watched old movies we'd all guesstimate what year it was made (though the year of release may be one or two years later). I'd do it by the fashion, my dad by the cars, and my mother by the age of the actors. I'm afraid my pompous self always won - maybe being one or two years out. It's harder with general photos though as real-life people don't instantly adopt the latest fashions in the way that a film costume department might; you also have regional and socio-economic aspect to consider as well.

I said it was real he said no way so I got up grabbed a dictionary and found it in a matter of seconds. He grabbed the dictionary said uh huh sure and tossed it halfway across the room.

Crewcuts/buzzcuts have been popular in the US off and on since World War II. When I was a toddler I was taken to a barber and they didn't tell him I was a girl. I just had the typical 1970s shaggy kid hair and they gave me a buzz cut. My mother cried but I got to wear my cowboy hat to cover it up so I was happy. I loved hearing Karolina's logic on her guesses and how growing up in Eastern Europe completely confuses everything...The NASCAR picture was obvious to me because I'm from the US and all of those brand logos are still being used. We live next to an O'Reilly Autoparts and that is still their logo. Also, I think the photo might have been taken in the South or Midwest, so having really brightly colorful dyed hair really has only been in the past

Drag races can also be entered by everyday people, so could be that too, OR, could be that car people go to races frequently enough to not need to take videos everytime (or a combination of the above).

omg i was thinking the same thing, czech fashion and technologies and stuff is so behind sometimes that i would have a reallyy hard time guessing the ones from 1960s and up lol, probably. like with one of the first pictures i tried based off of a 1985 czech movie where an actress had a bblown hairstyle exactly like that so i was like yess!! but the photo was 1977:'D

Welcome to NASCAR fans lmao the guy I think was holding a handheld time clock. They really pay attention to the event. People can/have died and cars go flying and they are all televised events so you can just record it when you go. I live by a racetrack and they are a league of their own.

A good tip on how to tell whether the photos of French soldiers you're looking at were taken at the start or at the end of the war is the colour of their uniform. Bright red pants and dark blue coats at the beginning of the war and pale blue uniforms by the end of it (like in the photo Karolina reviewed).

The giveaway in the race car event pic was the Sprint ad on the barrier wall. It's the post Sprint/Nextel merger logo which debuted in 2005 and pre T-Mobile acquisition of Sprint which was finalized in 2020. I guessed 2009, so I was still way off too. I watched the GeoGuesser pro play this a bunch recently and realized you really have to look for contextual clues beyond fashion in any photograph that's post 1980 really. As for the military men, those are standard issue military glasses. They're extremely durable and shatter resistant unlike normal glasses. Those are American DCUs (desert combat uniforms) which means it either has to be the Gulf War or post 9/11 but the camo isn't the digital pattern (made up of lots of tiny squares) which was rolled out heavily in the very beginning of the long conflict. So, that meant odds favored Gulf War. (And I know this stuff because most of the guys I went to HS served post 9/11 and a lot of our dads/uncles served in the Gulf or we knew someone who did)
