Those who were born 2000-2004 got the perfect mix of old school and modern, it's the greatest generation of all time
My younger sibling was born in 2004. He doesn't know what a floppy disc is and the oldest OS he used Windows Vista.
>>84001867tell me one thing i missed out on by being born in 2006 instead of 2004
Nah, us late 80s early 90s fags got that. We got to experience the old world as kids and grow up with the new world as teens/young adults.
>>84001867we were robbed of any semblance of normalcy early and were semi-conscious for 08.
>>84001867Not even closeBy the time some fag born in 2000 was conscious everything was modern. Netflix, Spotify, everything in 4K quality, smartphones, plasma televisions, Xbox 360, you name it.
>>84002286What this guy said. Those born in the early 90's have the best frame of reference for it, having been young enough to have a 90's childhood free of the internet while becoming teens just in time for it to become a staple of day to day life. They also had the good fortune of reaching maturity just in time to miss the worst of the social media craze that still grips us today. A lot of them still got hooked on it as adults but their cringinest years aren't as well documented as those of zoomers and younger due to them having been young when social media was still in its infancy.
>>84002346yep, I was a '90 fag. I remember seeing payphones in places and my mom taught me how to use them in case I ever would but I never did before they were removed. I didn't even get the internet until I was 14 in 2004 because mom absolutely refused to spend any money on it, believed it was full of nothing but smut and porn (not far off the mark). My stupid teenage shit wasn't documented and no one knows about it.
>>84002365We were even lucky enough to have the biggest social media platform of the the time Myspace to actually go and delete everything before a certain year so even all of that was erased for us. The current youth will not be so lucky.
>>84002380Oh fuck yes, I hadn't kept up with myspace since like 09 so I thought my cingey emo selfies would still be there somewhere. So glad that got purged.
>>84002387I remember I lost complete interest in social media and quit it entirely once everyone started moving to Facebook because Facebook was not anywhere near as fun as Myspace. Really makes me wonder how their format fell out of favor to something so boring.
>>84001867No, I think they're still too young because they can't even meaningfully remember when Youtube came out.
>>84001867>2000-2004>old schoolYou faggots want to be accepted so bad KEK. If you were born in 2000 your earliest memories are 2006ish. Not even close to old school. You are the iPad babies we used to make fun of when I was in college in 2012. >>84002286Facts. Anyone born between 88-95 likely experienced the shift between old school (anaglog vs digital, dialup vs DSL, landline vs cell phone) to new school. We were raised before the dot com bubble and graduated college after the recession. A unique time for sure.
i was born in 1988i actually got to use a computer like you postedbut you were just a baby that couldnt use it then1950s was the best time to be alive
>>84001867As someone born in 94 with siblings born in the early 80s, they definitely got the best of both worlds. I grew up using a lot of older tech, but as soon as I became a teenager, everything changed to smart phones and social media. My time with the old world was pretty short-lived, whereas they pretty much lived it through their childhoods up to their early twenties.
everyone born after 97 grew up with console shooter slop like call of duty
i have the same monitor
>>84003617>You faggots want to be accepted so bad KEKi think its the opposite way around, millennials just want to lord all their experiences over us just to be cool because you xoomer/boomer parents neglected you/helicoptered you so hardi never cared about the fact you had all this old janky tech, you didn't even have a hand in making itthe only cool thing from that time period is the fallout games but all millennials like troon vegas
>>84002346Fellow 1990 bro here. You stated this very well anon. >young enough to have a 90's childhood free of the internet while becoming teens just in time for it to become a staple of day to day life.It was just the right amount of technology, although I never capitalized on it. Should have used aim/gotten a cell sooner to text girls and ask them out. I also missed out on peak stickam.
>>84001867>born 2000-2004 got the perfect mix of old school and modernI hate to repeat what's already been said but you're literal ipad babies who experienced nothing of the world before the internet took over everything.>>84002286Exactly, millenials. There was maybe 1 in 10 kids who had internet at home in high school, and even less than that as pre-teens, and practically none as kids.We were the last ones to experience stuff like arcades and magazine subscriptions and video rental stores and shopping malls before they became le spooky half-empty or abandoned liminal space for urbex youtubers.Gen Z is the same as Gen A in that they both grew up online but Zoomers will be like "our XBox and your Youtube was different and better" which to be fair is not wrong.
this is just utter gen alpha cope, yes you are gen alpha2004? two thousand and fucking four? dude you were a toddler when halo 3 came out, you don't remember SHIT about the old worldstop the cope, maybe like 90-2000 is this golden generation, but 2004? holy shit lol, stop trying to be us
>>84002286thisjust old enough to clearly remember the pre internet and smartphone world, it's why so many of us are fucking depressed too because we got to witness this rapid evolution and stagnation of technology and culture
>>84004588>how do you do fellow 90s kids? I was born in 2000how about you stop
