Remember when people in the 80-90s believed we would have at least moon bases by the 2010s or 2020s at most, instead of simply letting all of the space momentum break down and forget about it (barring the odd breakout)? Good times.

Apparently baggy clothes are coming back in style? I still have all of my oversized NBA jerseys from when I went through my wigger phase during my freshman and sophomore years in high school back in the early 2000s. Might have to break them back out again.

deviantART is celeberating 25th anniversary

A quarter century of wolves with abs and Sonic characters with human feet.

Good times.

When I was a little kid, I was thinking there'd be a manned mission to the 4th planet in the early 21st century. Instead there has not even been a manned mission to the moon in over 50 years. Apollo 17 was the last manned mission to the moon in December of 1972, and yes that's over 50 years ago. There's even no more commercial supersonic flight.

The only thing worse than a wigger is an ageing wigger. Do you really want to be this guy?

He sounds like a Beastie boy who joined the Nation of Islam.

My knees are getting cold at night. Not my legs. Just my knees.

Yeah I’m in the same boat. It’s time to just bite the bullet and buy some leg warmers like a damn ballerina.

A TV was playing some footage of a recent Avril Lavigne concert. Seeing a 41yo woman dressed in hot topic gear from over two decades ago while singing 'sk8er boi' hit me like a slap.

letting all of the space momentum break down and forget about it

That had already happened by the 90's, and by the early 00's with the shuttle fleet being retired it was definitely over.

So far I only seen women using Y2K pants and stuff.

I’ll think of something I’d like to post in this thread and then wonder, “Have I posted this before? It seems familiar” and end up not posting anything at all.

Every once in a while, I'll be bopping along throughout my day, heart as light as a feather, and then I catch myself in the mirror and see a melting wax dummy with a head full of gray hair. It's like a punch square in the face every damn time.

I'm going through the exact same shit I was 10+ years ago and I hate how it feels exactly the same. So much for progress

Do you know why, or what keeps repeating?

Do you know why, or what keeps repeating?

• Shitty neighbors
• Dumb politicians
• Getting laid off
• Dynamic relationship modes

Or...

Nothing changes, so they've been living the same life for a decade.

Talked to a 23 year old, they were born a year after 9/11. I'm only 30.
They also described a portable cd player as "oh the disk laptop things?"

Kids these days don't watch SpongeBob anymore. All my references don't make sense to the under 20 year olds
