Will people ever miss the 00s?

You still hear a lot of people reminisce about the 80s, or 90s, but never the 00s.

Is it because it’s a decade that is hard to pin down?

Shit economy, invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, all the nastiness of the Bush administration. Not a lot to miss. Of course, things haven't gotten much better since, and actually they've gotten even worse in many respects.

I miss it though just because I was a teenager then.

The staged terror attacks were terrible to the psyche of Americans. People were on edge for another attack. Not a healthy mindset.

highly doubt it.

That they were staged? Pretty much every aspect of the official narrative doesn’t stand up to expert scrutiny from aviators, engineers and architects. Hence their associations for 9/11 truth.

Its all relative , how old you are affects which time period you are nostalgic for far more than whatever the prodominent culture etc was at the time .

Yeah, people do like the things that occurred when they were young. I used to be nostalgic for the 80s. Now that era seems so far away I don’t feel the same as I did in the 90s, when it was still touchable, if that makes sense.

I miss aspects of the 90s, like the video arcades and video stores, R & B not being sung rap (like it is today), but actual songs. Fashion? Hell no. Girls dressed like guys in the 90s.

About the 00s, I used to email friends and actually compose a letter. Now people think hitting like on a photo is staying in contact.

I used to out of contact with far flung relatives for years at a time , so a like on a photo (empty gesture that it is) is kind of a step up :)
I was about 18 at the start of the 90s , so lot of changes , good times , seems far away now , so far its fading ...
Had quite a good time the 00s too , in a different way , but i can remember it clearer , almost like it overwrote the data

I don't think they will because music and fashion was very unoriginal, and still is.

00s fashion was highlights on girls and frosted tips on guys.
Biggest artists were Usher, Beyonce, Pink.
Consoles were PS 2 & 3, 360, wii, DS.
