Dumbphones.

I'm sure back in 1999, this was considered cutting edge, but watching The Matrix now makes this look really dated.
When he unlocks the phone it does a smooth as fuck snap into place. Name me one film since that has had someone unlock a smartphone in a way that even remotely approached the satisfying audiovisual experience of Neo unlocking the Nokia.

Check and mate.

Cargo shorts/pants. I had a couple of pairs in high school. I put everything in those pockets. Phone, wallet, pens, pencils and folded paper.

Oddly enough, I seen a dude at Little Caesars today who looked nearly identical to Danny McBride and was wearing black cargo pants. Took me back.

I still see young guys driving around in these Skylines. They were cool 15 years ago...

Remember shit like that lol?


The fact that I still see these by the hiphop enthusiasts in my town after moving to Japan is even more sad now that I realize how long ago it was haha. Geeze, though this small ass city in the middle of south Japan being super into rap and hiphop alone is also crazy.

I for one name low rider jeans with bell bottom styled legs... with spaghetti strap tops... and "platform shoes/sandals, ALSO I miss teen movies set in upscale neighborhoods. Basically everything about the movie "10 Things I Hate About You"

Google was barely a thing, once upon a time. Yahoo was the go-to. Hard to imagine, now.

Or you'd go on a journey of fan sites through their banner exchanges. Be sure to sign my guestbook!
You're super right, don't know how I made that mistake because I also have a yahoo email from that era that's now filled with spam haha

I still miss Rock Band drums. I love that it actually taught me to play a real set.

Yeah, I went from beginner to expert on Rock Band drums and pretty much learned to play for real. I kept my Rock Band stuff around and even bought another Xbox 360 after mine was stolen so I could have the option to play. I just invested too much in all that stuff to get rid of it entirely.

Also, Scene Kids.

I was scene adjacent. Meaning my friends were, I liked the music and girls, but I did not pretend to like Pokemon, I actually did haha. Damn the last year 2 years of high school were weirdly entertaining now that I think about it.

Van dykes or goatees always struck me as the new-millennium mullet. Robert Downey Jr. can pull it off, but few others.

DVD/VCR combo players, the CRT TVs with the built-in DVD player

Oh, don't forget those expensive Ed Hardy t-shirts with the v-neck and bedazzled dragons and what-not.

Everyone already covered cell phones. I remember when everyone really wanted that Motorola RAZR phone. It was so thin back then.
