If decades had their own persona.

So here are MY takes on it

1950s: Traditional patriotic good ol boy who loves his family and America. He never cusses, and he always says please and thank you. He always does what he's told, and blindly trusts what the media and authority figures tell him.

1960s: Counter-cultural hippie who loves weed and LSD. The only thing he hates more than war is meat. He hates his parents and calls them squares for not being rebellious. Despite his constant "peace and love" rhetoric, he also thinks it's justifiable to use violence for political causes.

1970s: Pretentious middle-aged guy who loves classic and especially progressive rock and New Hollywood movies. He's constantly bragging about his supposedly superior taste in pop culture. He's also promiscuous as hell. He thinks Pong is the most fun video game ever made and that Scooby-Doo clones are the pinnacle of animation.

1980s: Rockstar who embodies the "sex drugs and rock n roll" lifestyle to the extreme. Says "rad" and "totally" every 5 seconds and begins every sentence with "like". When he's not busy drinking, doing cocaine, or getting laid, he's either playing obnoxiously loud heavy metal in his garage or in the arcade trying to defeat people's high score. Though overall fun to be around, he clearly has a drug problem.

First half of the 1990s: Sarcastic teen who says "whatever" as a response to almost everything. He worships Kurt Cobain and is also a heroin addict. He's also a slacker who's constantly sitting on the couch watching TV and playing video games. He loves all the latest alternative bands and hates anything mainstream, yet his resistance to the mainstream and conformity is what made him popular.

Second half of the 1990s: Teen girl who just got the internet hooked up for the first time. She is obsessed with pop groups like Spice Girls, N Sync, and Backstreet Boys. When she's not busy "surfin' the net" or desperately trying to get tickets to see Hanson, she's playing either collect-a-thon platformers like Banjo-Kazooie and Spyro, or playing Pokemon and "trying to catch em all". She one day hopes to become a web developer to make lots of money.

First half of the 2000s: Cynical teenage dude who loves Newgrounds, South Park, and Adult Swim cartoons. He is basically what you'd classify as an "edgy nerd", one who loves video games and technology, but also skateboarding, adult cartoons, and crude humor. He is constantly seen playing Halo on his Windows XP computer in his spare time, or messing with people on MSN chat rooms. His main hobby is making Flash animations whilst listening to pirated Linkin Park songs on Winamp.

Second half of the 2000s: Emo girl who is constantly checking her MySpace and text messages on her BlackBerry phone. She is obsessed with anime, ESPECIALLY Naruto and Death Note, although she also loves Avatar: The Last Airbender and thinks it's anime. She is often seen making AMVs of her favorite shows with Three Days Grace and Daughtry playing over them. If she's not doing that, she's making fanfiction and drawing fanart. Her MySpace page is heavily customized with emo and bling imagery.

First half of the 2010s: Obnoxious dudebro who always says "YOLO" and "SWAG" and is constantly posting selfies like there's no tomorrow. He loves playing Call of Duty and thinks Nintendo games are for little kids. Ironically however, he LOVES My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and masturbates to porn of it. Has the worst taste of music you can think of: Justin Bieber, One Direction, dubstep, electropop. He thinks that asdfmovie and Annoying Orange are the pinnacle of comedy. He is also obsessed with Facebook.

Second half of the 2010s: College-aged social justice warrior who is constantly preaching about racism and homophobia, and thinks it is pervasive in every single aspect of culture. She gets extremely easily offended, about as non-chill and non-laidback as you can get. When not doing this, she is constantly playing the victim card about how oppressed she is and is constantly bragging about her status as a homosexual transgender black overweight disabled female. She's a minimalist to an unbearable degree: no posters, no decorations, nothing. She also thinks superhero movies and Disney remakes are the pinnacle of cinema.

ik a girl who’s exactly like this

That literally sounds more like the 80s/early 90s than the 2010s, with all those anti-drug PSAs and the "Just Say No" campaign. And we ALL KNOW how drug-filled that era was.

LOL my personality is basically some kind of amalgam of these.

This makes 0 sense

All these things you listed contradict each other, you're just naming cultural movements

A personification doesn't need to be specific like that, you only need to describe the general vibes of the time

The hipsters of the 2010s were obsessed with bacon, the quintessential food of the 2010s.
This current decade is more vegan-oriented than the 10s if anything.

That was such a 2010s trend in general.



Just looking at these pictures is reminding me of that shitty American Authors song, which may very well be the most 2010s song ever made.
