Little tired of the obvious lines of dialogue that reminds us what year it is:

The professor referring to my Greek wedding in an envelope at home.

The mom and neighbor talking about this new website Facebook

Well those were normal conversation topics in 2004. If in 20 years, were watching a movie about Covid and 2020(highly likely), expect to hear at least one character mention watching Tiger King.

Man, I can't tell you how dead on balls accurate this has to be.

The Pam & Tommy series does this much more but I think it is fun to hear all those old references again. Reminds me what life was like when we were just on the cusp of the great Technology Revolution.
