It's almost 2005! So far, this decade sucks!

[Gothic Sponge]

There is no culture/style defining this decade. The cars look the same as they did in the 90s. Clothing/hair styles haven't really changed. Music styles are regurgitated. The only major change is the lame president.

:shrug:

1. *Simpson's comic book guy voice* Worst. Decade. Ever.

[Skittles]

2. they need to do something to define this decade

they certainly don't want that idiot monkey face to be the one that defines "their day". :o

[NEOBuckeye]

3. I've noticed this as well.

It's like culture development has stagnated. Maybe there really isn't much left to develop?

[fluffernutter]

4. i agree. it's sad.

:(

[Neoma]

5. agreed

:(

[teach1st]

6. Yeah, but some decades don't morph...

..until mid-decade.

[St. Jarvitude]

7. 60's didn't really advance much til about '66

At least culturally, and at least as far as I know. :shrug:

It seems to me that there was a radical change right around '66 or '67 which then carried over into the mid 70's.

8. Yeah, it does feel like we are moving backwards so many ways,

socially, intellectually, economically, you name it. There is some pretty cool music, though, but I find the stuff I like the best is either from Canada or the U.K., go figure. British Sea Power's "Lately" is my personal soundtrack for '04, Which we do we go to get out of here? indeed...

[flamingyouth]

9. Yes

Yes, it does suck indeed.

10. it is becoming the decade of the magnetic car ribbon

[Gothic Sponge]

11. Yeah, they are everywhere on Long Island.

I support our troops, but i refuse to put one of those on my car.

[Gothic Sponge]

16. That one is good!

[Dem_4_Life]

18. That is a good one. I think I will nuy one for everyone for x-mas nt

21. from George Carlin

"I do not get all choked up about yellow ribbons and american flags. Symbols are for the symbol-minded."

[Lady Effingbroke]

12. And how!

I haven't heard any songs so far this century that I like. In general, pop culture and the social milieu accompanying it appears to be in a state of entropy and decay. I think I am officially succumbing to old fartitude. Hooray!

[crispini]

13. I agree.

So far, not much to like about this decade atall!

[St. Etienne]

14. The decade of the hick! n/t

[Barad Simith]

17. decades don't start to get good until they have at least a 5 or 6 in them

1966, 1975, 1986, 1995 ... in my opinion, this is when those decades started to roll

I'm looking forward to 2005, cuz this one has, as you said, sucked

[Gothic Sponge]

19. I hope you're right.

[Huckebein the Raven]

20. Well, you can look forward or rather backward to the second Dark Age.n/t

[tsakshaug]

22. Because of the naming issue

What do we call this decade
the naughts?
the oh's
the zeros?
