Does anyone else feel really nostalgic for the 2000's? Even taking into account 9/11 and the GWOT, that whole period of time seems so much better than the shit-ass 2020's.

I'll never forget hearing the news about Virginia Tech on the radio. I was in 7th grade. My entire street was experiencing a days-long power outage when it happened, so we had to listen to the news about it on the car radio because we couldn't turn on the TV.
