Favorite: 2004-2008
I’ve actually changed my mind a lot on 2009 despite my banner. I just can’t enjoy a year where Justin Bieber and Facebook are popular and cool. Not to mention Michael Jackson’s death. It also had pretty fucking awful pop culture TBCH. At least the aesthetic and tech was still cool and late 00s feeling.
As for 2004-2008, I like this era for many reasons, namely the edgy internet counterculture of back then. All the myriad of rock genres that got big during this time. Windows XP at its prime, great video games like GTA San Andreas, Kingdom Hearts 2, and God of War 1/2. Shows like Drake and Josh, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Billy and Mandy, and Death Note.
Also favorite: 1999
Just this one year, but man, what a year it was. The aesthetic of course was super shiny and futuristic. I’m not a teen pop fan, but I do like some of the rock and rap, this was when Eminem blew up. Nu metal stuff like Korn and Slipknot. Fantastic movies like The Matrix, Office Space, American Pie, and Toy Story 2.
Least Favorite: 2016-present
Ugh. SJW/alt-right nonsense everywhere. People getting cancelled over a joke they made a decade ago. An obsession with drama and things/people getting “exposed”, false sexual harassment allegations, Big Tech overstepping its power, you have to fucking watch everything you say rest you get banned or witchhunted, TikTok, Fortnite, Donald Trump, The Emoji Movie, I could go on. It only got worse with COVID and George Floyd. This made me appreciate the earlier part of this decade more, speaking of which…
Also least favorite: 2011-2014
I’m sorry if you like this era, but I just couldn’t deal with it, ESPECIALLY when it was new. The whole YOLO/SWAG thing was unbelievably cringy. Shitty teen pop revival like Justin Bieber and One Direction. Shitty movies like Bayformers and Twilight. Bronies were EVERYWHERE. People overusing “epic” and “awesome”. The worst era for Nickelodeon, period. Not to mention the whole Facebook obsession in pop culture. Windows 8, my least favorite version of Windows (next to ME) came out in this time frame. Nintendo was awful (one perk of the Trump era late 2010s the early-mid 2010s did not have). Selfies were so big they gave birth to the Chainsmokers song, one of the worst fucking songs ever made. It perfectly represents this era: shallow, hedonistic, narcissistic, and trashy. I do not miss it all apart from the political stability of it (and even that wasn’t true for 2014).

Why do you like 2011 and not 2012? When both years are so similar? I’m not a 2012 fan either, I hated YOLO/SWAG culture, and this year pretty much kicked off K-Pop into the mainstream. But 2011 shared most of the same issues: Facebook (or Fakebook, as it should really be called), bronies, overly happy party-centric culture, and the complete lack of any real boundary-pushing subculture apart from hipsters, and I don’t consider hipsters actually boundary-pushing (unlike emos, goths, and grunge and nu metal kids). They’re more people who wear ironic shirts and wear mustaches. If that’s considered rebellion, then rebellion is fucking dead.

I thought the music in 2011 was more tolerable than 2012, also I liked the movies more in 2011 than 2012. In 2012 even more emphasis on hipster culture was placed than in 2011 and the few years prior, I hated 2012, it felt crappy.

In 2012 even more emphasis on hipster culture was placed than in 2011 and the few years prior, I hated 2012, it felt crappy. I'm the opposite when it comes to music and movies. 2011 is my least favorite year for movies, like, period. 2012 I thought was an improvement, with movies like The Avengers, Dark Knight Rises, The Amazing Spider-Man, and the first Hunger Games movie. Brave wasn't amazing but compared to Cars 2, it's basically a masterpiece. As for music, neither year is great TBH, but 2011 gave us Rebecca Black's Friday, and also had Your Favorite Martian being popular for some fucking reason. 2012 didn't have that kind of stuff, making it superior in my opinion. In fact, I think 2012 is a better year for music than the surrounding years of 2011 and 2013. But that's just my opinion.
