2000s Things Most Millennials Have Forgotten About Posted by Brian Galindo Last Updated: November 10, 2023 2000s Things Most Millennials Have Forgotten About 1. MTV’s Becoming, which was a series that featured everyday people recreating their favorite artists’ music videos: 2. Fonzworth Bentley, who was Diddy’s valet and used to follow him everywhere: 3. TBS’s delightful Dinner & Movie (and also all TBS shows starting at :05): 4. Having to adjust your eyes to the darkness inside of Hollister stores — and then having to adjust them again to the brightness of the mall when you left the store: 5. The risqué photos inside the Abercrombie & Fitch catalog: 6. Artists doing in-store appearances at Virgin Megastores, Best Buys, and Tower Records to promote their new albums: 7. The Family Guy ringtones you would buy from Jamster: 8. And the Jamster commercial that featured the super annoying singing rabbit: 9. The iPod headphones that were flat and round with wires that would rip after, like, a year of use: 10. Target’s Archer Farms in-store brand and market within a store: 11. And the video games endcap display Target had that looked so futuristic and had three different game consoles set up inside of it: 12. Catherine Zeta-Jones as the spokesperson for T-Mobile: 13. Happy Bunny T-shirts that always made you do a double-take: 14. And Paul Frank tees that were cute AF: 15. MP3s that you downloaded from LimeWire that had the wrong artist listed for the track and made you believe for years that some other artist sang that song: 16. LG’s Chocolate phone that looked very cool but had a terrible design as the track wheel would turn on when you put the phone next to your face while talking on it: 18. And Stephen Colbert, Ed Helms, Rob Corddry, and Samantha Bee as The Daily Show‘s correspondents: 19. Taking photos at concerts with digital cameras (which usually came out all blurry): 20. Knowing the skill of how to take selfies with non-front facing digital cameras: 21. E! True Hollywood Story, which was like a more dramatic version of A&E’s Biography: 22. Printing out track lists for mix CDs you would make for your friends: 23. And creating labels for your mix CDs — though it was always stressful when trying to get the sticker label perfectly on: 24. Watching The Carol Duvall Show (where she made different arts and crafts each episode) on HGTV if you were home sick from school and had NOTHING to watch: 25. Having the Education Connection commercial jingle stuck in your head: 26. The feeling of absolute panic you would get whenever you accidentally hit the “internet button” on your phone: 27. And lastly, the “don’t pirate movies” ad that played before some DVD movies and made you think the FBI would be breaking down your door if you even googled a pirating site: Source link
