What's so funny is that nothing from the 2000s is fundamentally different. We've made staggering _incremental_ change but, they changes are in degree NOT kind. Anything from 98 and after was relatively the same as now. There's nothing you wouldn't recognize if you jumped forward 20 years, the graphics are just better now but, its nothing game changing. As someone who was born in the 80s, I was thinking back on this and I'm more shocked at how much changed in the 90s alone than the 18 years since. To be fair, things got _super_ sophisticated and polished around the 2000s and were probably at the last edge of breakthrough changes in consumer products landscape - there just isnt a lot of room for improvement now other than more if the same for less. I mean, raytracing and bloom adds some nice atmosphere but, its not groundbreaking like going from NES to Quake in sonething like 4 years. Cell phones weren't a brick, they were just shitty low res monochrome flip phones. Movies were actually better in some regards as they had perfected in on camera and practical effects but, prob wouldn't attempt something like Avatar or other heavy CG... then again, episode 1 came out around then and the Coruscant scenes were game changing. If you had a decently powerful PC, w.o. crapware, you could easily get really good graphics from Homeworld, Quake series, etc.

[@capofigo]

Wade Wilson also he was right about the friends. He needed a friend, all alone is just boring.

[@underwaterdick]

Also, in the 2000's social media was still a big thing. Most of us teenagers were addicted to talking to 30 people at once on MSN messenger, putting music on each others myspace pages and going into internet chat rooms about a topic we enjoyed. The fact that we had to restrict internet time was not due to 'it not being good' but more due to the fact that dial-up blocked the phone line and parents did not like this all night! Gaming was a huge thing, but thanks to the lack of twitch, youtube and other streaming sites there wasn't the mega money in it that there is now. The reason that he does not go out and interact with friends much anymore is not the fault of social media, it is also a thing with growing up. - As you leave school and get a job, your priorities change, and you don't want to always be out. You want to relax in your home that you pay to rent or own. Not hang out somewhere else. Also, as you have to pay your own way and earn your own money you naturally put a cost barrier on activities. When you were a child/teenager parents often cover the cost or you are content with free things to do. Some things change because you age, not because the date has changed. In the UK, it can be classed as 'anti social' if a group of more than 4 youths congregate somewhere. This gives councils and the police powers to move them on or ban them from that area in future. - They don't have to be doing anything wrong either. In my day we used to get moaned at by the police or locals for 'hanging around' but they had no power to do anything about it. - People wonder why online gaming or social media is more appealing to modern teenagers than going out? Nostalgia really blinds people to what the past was like, often with 'it was better in my day' attitude. But if you look back, things are often better in the now. An example - My first car when I learnt to drive was an old car that used to break down a lot and be a bit tatty. Now, many 17 year olds get nearly new cars here in the UK, because they are often much cheaper to insure. Cars are easier to buy on finance and the country's culture gets more on credit than ever before. Also, with the modern generation being less technical than the past, the skill of maintaining your own car has reduced, meaning reliability counts for a lot more.

[@quincena]

[@underwaterdick]

Windzu it differs day to day. Being a homeowner and parent means there are always things that I should be doing... Procrastination is a big thing though, putting off jobs because I want to play PS4 or have a lie in. Then there is all the commuting and overtime... I used to have shedloads of free time when I was a student, before having a family, when renting and when there was no overtime at work. Now I spend the free time I have enjoying as much family time as I can before they go to bed 😁

It would be easier to pretend to live in the 1950s than it would to pretend to live in the early 2000s. In the 2000s you have all this semi modern technology, but it’s the fact that it’s semi modern that makes it so difficult. Having internet so slow you want to pull your hair out is more frustrating than having no internet at all.

[@BadgerCheese94]

Trav in the Box I spent most of the early 2000s with no internet. We didn't get internet til like 2003/2004 and even then I wasn't online often until 2005 which is way past "Early 2000s" at that point. And guess what? I had a very fun childhood back then. I didn't need the internet. I mean cartoons, video games and movies were better than any website at the time (at least for someone 6-10 years old) and we actually played outside with other kids around the neighbourhood. The internet was just a past time now people treat it like it's second only to reality. It's sad. Oh, and I did have slow internet back then. Whatever. Not like I did anything important anyway unless going on Newgrounds, Ebaumsworld prank call soundboards or watching Smosh on KZbin was considered "important."

[@uhhhhyourmom]

BadgerCheese94 I’m with you on that man. For a long time the internet was not that great if you were a kid. It was just something to do if you were bored out of your skull. It was just too slow. Same thing with flip phones. They were fun to mess around on, but I didn’t take them too seriously. I remember in fourth grade when my school got the first macbooks. We were like wow, the future is truly here. The effect of how much time we have spent on the internet won’t be seen for years. We are a generation of guinea pigs.

[@BadgerCheese94]

Trav in the Box I didn't even know what a "Macbook" was when I was in 4th grade lol I just knew "This is a computer." At that age (9) my focus on computers was playing pinball or this Jimmy Neutron game for the PC wjth my cousin or occasionally the internet and looking at funny pictures. I don't think we used computers at school until middle school. For reference, 4th grade for me was 2003/2004. Scratch that I do think I used the computer once or twice in elementary but God knows I don't remember what we did on it lol. Probably some stupid computer math quiz sometime around 2001ish. Growing up though it was always these bulky PC monitors. Crazy how dated they look now. Computers in general were just a THING when I was a kid. To me they weren't as entertaining as TV, VCRs or Playstations. It wasnt til I was 11-12 that I was interested in computers and the online world.

[@uhhhhyourmom]

BadgerCheese94 Yeah I was born a little bit later than you in 97. It doesn’t seem like that would make much of a difference, but it really does. It’s almost like every 3 or 4 years is a new generation these days. Things change so rapidly.

[@BadgerCheese94]

Trav in the Box Well I consider Gen Z to start in 1998 so I say you just barely made the millennial cut lol. And yea. My main worry is that outdoor play becomes less common though where I live now I see lots of kids outside. Yet again I live in one of the most outdoorsy states in America. I am gonna be a dad in the next few years so making sure my kids get the right balance of exercise and imaginational use is super important. Unlike my dad, I won't be caveman like toward video games lol but I won't be super permissive either. At some point you gotta turn the game off and get some fresh air.

[@hiRyan329329]

Same here, I already had a slim ps2 but I wanted to be able to play my games without the discs so I bought a phat ps2 and put a 250gb hard drive in it :p

[@HamadArtie]

Yeah, that's exactly what he did. There's a lot more to that period than a PS2 and an old CRT TV. But to truly experience living in the early 2000's, you need everyone to live in that period too (which is impossible). You need all businesses revert back to their old ways, like for example, record companies releasing and promoting CD's or car manufacturers releasing old models of their cars. And then there's always the excitement of going out to buy something that was (at the time) technologically advanced (like an old Nokia phone or a CD player). And the excitement and anticipation of upcoming events (big concerts, big game..etc). And because we were all living that period together, we used to talk and have discussions about everything that was going on, whether it was a popular TV show or politics or anything. Finally, having a Myspace account in 2005 is nothing like having one in 2018. Nobody's on that website anymore, so you just can't experience it now. Anyway, it was never really half as boring as this guy made it seem.

From my perspective as a 21-year-old, you made the early 2000's out to be a time period that was impossible to live in. But dude, you could still go out, eat at restaurants, go to the mall, visit the movie theater, jam out with your iPod, play some cool Gameboy games like the Legend of Zelda, dance out on DDR, and still hang out with friends. I was just a little kid during that time but that was pretty much what I did during that decade and the time passed by fast. Honestly, I miss the days when people weren't constantly complaining about being unable to access their social media accounts, their smartphones, or their tablets. Your whole life doesn't revolve around a freaking website or an Apple product. Go out with friends and family and experience the world around you.

Living in the 2000's for a week isn't setting up an old tv and play on every console that has been releases between the 2000 - 2005 era. People were expecting more like music, tv, daily life in the early 2000's. Instead of that we only got a little tour around your room and some gameplay from ps2 / xbox games with you commentating over it. The concept of this was really great but you made it more about 2000's videogames / consoles, which really disappointed me. You really had potential in this video but didn't go all in with the sort of challenge. I was personally thinking that outside of the recording time you were just having a modern day life.

Despite being so young from a few months old to a few years old I still have a very good memory and remember all the times they carried me in my stroller, to the beach, and to play video games, it was so incredibly lovely and thinking back on it I feel so happy. I honestly wish I was a teenager in the early 2000’s it seems so incredible.

There was still social media in the early 2000s. People were connected via the Internet, but not as extreme as it is today. Email and IM sites were huge though. After school, you would go email your crush and IM your friends. Then go outside and chill til the sun went down. The internet was very slow back then though, and not everyone had computers or laptops. Especially laptops. So the biggest way to communicate would be in person or phone calls.

I think the one thing that truly made living in the early 2000s a gem, was the physical social interactions. Today you mostly interact with your friends via through a screen and microphone from long distances and such. But before that, we usually had to go to their house or they came to ours. I know people still do that now obviously. I'm just saying that THAT was what made the early 2000s so fun. I miss going to my friends house to meet up with everyone for a long night of CoD Zombies. Or to meet up at the park nearby to chill and do stupid shit. I think everyone, no matter what generation will always look back at their childhood and remember what it was like. Cause once you become an adult...life sure does do a number on you.

[@Kermitt_Frog]

I somehow partwise have to disagree. In early 2000s it was not that much of a different than today for many people. The more "social" living was like 10 years before that (early '90th), when there had been no cell phones, no real internet etc. In the early 2000s I already had been like up to 8h a day in the www in different chats, webpages and online gaming. Back in the days it was not facebook or instagram, but a "(Text) chat world" or mIRC and ICQ and you used teamspeak instead of whatsapp or line. The only big difference is the smartphone, which makes the internet more mobile, but not really makes the society less social. Its partwise the other way. For the smaller part, who already lived "digital" in the 90s a smartphone gave them freedom to go out and see people, without being disconnected. So they became part of the "normal" society again. While for the other part of the society, who had been "offline" in the early 2000s, they just became part of the online community. Maybe they lost a part of their "personal social" life. So its two sides of the same coin.

[@jamesp504]

You're the last generation that did that. Seriously. You're the last person to have grown up without a connection to the internet. I mean, the late 90s we had AOL and things started changing, and along came Myspace by 2006 or so, but even then, people didn't use the internet the way they do now. I swear, modern society is being brainwashed into mindless drones. And trying to tell them only "triggers" them. It's a lost cause.

It was like she was locked up in North Korea! Impossible to contact her and maintain a friendship much less anything more. It really sucked. But today everyone is in constant contact and that can suck as well. You can't escape from social life and just take a break from it .
