Viraldice: 15 Things Only Kids Who Grew Up in the 2000s Will Remember

an anyone believe it's actually 2018? Time continually flies by at a rapid pace and you simply blink and BAM: you're an adult with adult responsibilities and you crave the simpler days of Xanga and AIM messenger.

If you grew up in the '00s, this list is for you. Warning: intense feelings of nostalgia may come up when you scroll through this list. Side effects may include purchasing butterfly clips and blasting Shaggy's "It Wasn't Me" at full volume.

This hits all of the feels.

Having socks that reached mid-calf was so embarrassing. It was always important to fold your sock or cut it to prevent humiliation.

All my curly-haired girls, throw your hands in the air!

I relate to this more than anything in the entire world. Long before the trend of incredible flat-irons and hair straighteners, we mere peasants had to literally put our head on an ironing board and go to town.

The results were…not great.

This scene is one us '00s babies know well.

The year is 2006: you’re starting up your PlayStation 2. It’s 9am and you have your bowl of cereal next to you on the living room floor. you lower your voice as much as you can and say “EA SPORTS IT’S IN THE GAME” along with the tv. Life is good.

Okay, obviously everyone still loves PlayStation. But there was just something about the early 2000’s that really hits home when you think about booting up your EA Sports games.

Cascada was the soundtrack to our youth.

if ur favorite cartoon/anime characters didn't have a music video edit set to 'everytime we touch' by cascada on youtube with at least 500k views in 2007 they really weren't valid

Should we go ahead and put that on a t-shirt? For real though, that song played on loop constantly. Whether it was at middle school dances, or at home alone in your room as you cried thinking about your crush.

It's like looking into a mirror at my own bedroom.

This is so spot on that it’s almost freaky. Also, look how big and clunky that TV is. We’re dying.

What other things scream ’00s?
