2005 was not boring loll prob the 1 Summer of all time of the 2000s lol, I agree with you that 2015 was very boring. 2015 honestly is the most boring year of the 2010s. TRASH CAN status. I kind of agree that 2015 was just a faded 2014, but 2017 was much much worse IMO. It was a worse dark version of 2016. 2018 and 2019 were much more vibrant than any year between 2014 and 2017 though IMO. I agree, 2017 did have this dark vibe to it, I need to come up with a name for it "the vibe" of that year.

Fair enough. Winter 2014/2015 showed signs of staleness. Imo 2015 was a boring 2014 with less early 2010s influences similar to how 2005 was a boring 2004 with less early 2000s influences. Anyways it’s funny you mention 1999-2000 because people see 2014-2015 as peak teen poop music years. 2005 was not boring loll prob the 1 Summer of all time of the 2000s lol, I agree with you that 2015 was very boring. 2015 honestly is the most boring year of the 2010s. TRASH CAN status. 2005 was more better and exciting than 2015 pop culturally.

2018 to me is just bland
2017 is worse than bland, AWFUL is what it is: Cardi B, The Last Jedi, The Boss Baby, The Emoji Movie, Lil Pump, Battlefront II, Despacito, Jake Paul, fidget spinners, YouTubers getting demonetized. Not to mention it was post-Vine but pre-TikTok, meaning it is totally lacking in character apart from dumb fads like fidget spinners. I perceive 2017 the same way John Titor perceives 2000, just a bunch of dumb fads, but also mixed with VERY toxic culture. Unite the Right was the peak of this IMO, as well as responses to The Last Jedi.

2018, peak edgy depression-slow "moody" boring music and cringy-ass mumble rappers with tattoed face were everywhere, 2018 was the peak of anti-sjw culture aswell.
2019 was amazing.

Unite the Right was the peak of this IMO, as well as responses to The Last Jedi. 2018 was in the shadow of 2017. 2017 and 2018 felt like similar years. I remember people hyped 2018 to be the new 2008, but they got disappointed as soon as they realized late 2010s culture was to stay. 2018 screams peak late 2010s. Aside some bright moments from early through mid 2018, I prefer late 2018. Late 2018 sucked less. I hated 2017 and most of 2018. March through December 2017 shared the same calendar as 2000. 2018 shared the same calendar as 2001.

That would be 2016 and 2020. 2020 was a pretty big shift year, and so was 2016 🙃 2012 not so much, but i bet it would've been a shift year had Obama lost to Mitt Romney

I think 2024 won't be a big shift year either, but life will definitely be different by then. Covid will be under control, life will be normal again and i expect AI, VR and AG to bb blowing up (or at least bubbling under) by then

2017. Music was at it's absolute worst ever with EDM pop and the start of mumble rap domination at the end. Very few good games came out, HZD is the only great game I can think off the top of my head that came out that year, Injustice 2 was dissapointing. The beginning of the year was when I really started to notice how shitty and unoriginal memes were getting. In general it was just a really shit year for me personally and culturally.

2017 and 2019. 2019 pop culturally felt incredibly empty and unoriginal like a bad photocopy of everything in latter 2010s, like today. All 2019 felt as if someone cloned 2016 and removed its soul. 2018 isn't bad because it's a calmer version of 2017, with trump mania just starting to wane in the latter half and the earlier 2010s just starting to feel passe, and it felt like a bridge, didn't feel as endlessly souless and stale as 2019.
Early to mid 2010 felt quite a bit bland, nothing really exciting or distinct enough. 2011 into 2012 is kinda of overrated, and the manufactured 2010s feeling has a lot of its roots here, but better than some of the mid to late 2010s.

One of the key moments of 2015 that told me I couldn't wait for that year to end.

One of the key moments of 2015 that told me I couldn't wait for that year to end. Yeah I forget to add it. It's was like milktoast version of 2013-2014 sprinkled with small late 2010s elements, it felt like the 2010s were dying to be honest, like late 2009 to 2014 was the real decade. The more I think about 2014-2015 had to another massively boring and shitty 2010s year. Worst years: 1. 2015 - Fakest year - Peak commercialization of 2010s identity 2. 2017 - Worst political year - Peak Trump, normalization of right wing ideology, and ridiculous SJW culture 3. 2019 - Most unoriginal year - Peak derivative and recycled 2010s culture

I remember people hyping up 2015 because of the 1985 movie “Back To The Future.” 2015 didn’t live up to the hype. I already felt mid 2010s culture was already past their peak by the second half of 2015. 2013 and 2014 were better than 2015 imo. 2013 and 2014 seemed more diverse and well-rounded. 2015 seemed monotone. I’m starting to think the mid 2010s peaked in the second half of 2014 into the first half of 2015. 2017 sucked all the way, nothing redeemable about that year. I already felt the late 2010s past their peak in 2019. Some stuff was ending, but I felt like nothing was there as a replacement or successor. Totally. I felt that latter 2018 was this sweet spot, where trump popularity finally just beginning to loose steam it had from spring 16 to early 18, and parts of the mid to late and core 2010s were just beginning dry up here and there, only problem nothing changed enough in 2019.

I honestly don’t know what the most unoriginal year of the 2010s is. The whole decade screamed uncreative. Movies were mostly just superheroes, reboots, and sequels. I think it would have to be 2017. The Emoji Movie is peak unoriginality. It’s mostly a ripoff of Wreck-It Ralph, The Lego Movie, and Inside Out, coupled with pandering to zoomers. Not to mention all those fucking same-ish mumble rappers with names starting with Lil or Young. Also other unoriginal movies like The Last Jedi and Beauty and the Beast. 2018 and 2019 also weren’t original/creative (look at anything Disney made those years + the continuation of the mumble rap trend)
Most creative/least unoriginal year? Probably 2014 to be honest. It’s not my favorite year but movies, video games, and music seemed to actually try to be something unique and different. Guardians of the Galaxy, The Lego Movie, Five Nights at Freddys, Goat Simulator, Interstellar. 2010 is a close second (Inception, Adventure Time, Regular Show, Despicable Me).
