How will this decade be remembered in History
 

We're coming to the end of the first decade of the 21st Century. A decade marked by 9/11, the war in Iraq, the first real signs of China's hidden economic might, the iPod, American Idol, etc, etc, etc. But how will it be remembered in decades to come?

Start writing for Q magazine. They care about such things.

I'm sorry but I always hate this kind of question. I don't know what the future will be like so I have nothing to compare this decade to. All I have is my own opinion of this decade, I can't speak for anyone or any time else. History is wholely retrospective. I don't feel like I have enough to speculate.

here's one, in 30,000 years this decade will look like children playing with toys

I think it will be known as the decade Brittany shaved her head.

i was having this conversation last night on the phone
ipods and myspace? :P

ipods?

who the fuck cares about those?

iPods are big now, but so was the Walkman when it first came out. Something better will come along and they will just be some old piece of junk; that is until they become vintage and tehy sell for $20,000 on eBay.

Paris Hilton.

It will be seen as a the era of stupidity, spiritual re-wakening. The era of America losing its power on a worldwide scale. It will be like its counterpart Mexico, and South America. America will be known for not having quality education. So on so on.

As the dark ages

Exactly, and with Global Warming not Global Climate Change it will be almost identical. Only wer have a huge dependency on eletronics.

Well, not much of the music will be remembered, because very little of it is memorable.

I'd say the things on 2000-2009 in the history book will be: 9/11, Iraq War, Saddam's execution, Spirit and Opportunity, the Israeli invasion of Lebanon, and the 2000 election.

A really shit and boring decade.

All the god damn school/college massacres.

Thats how Generation Y will be remembered.

not paris hilton, but the idiot hordes who watched her

I think the naughties is gonna be deemed upon a very bland period

I agree.

it'll be remembered as a decade where some girl named jade from florida conquered earth.

The last dacade BEFORE THE INVASION OF THE MOLE PEOPLE!

The Jailing Of Paris Hilton.

Peter Tatchel getting beaten up by russian police.

Dinosaur Jr Reunion !!;)

Demonrail666 writing THE definitive text on post-97 socialism, culture, society and celebrity. Either that or writing a book on hot celebrity mamas. Either's good.

Melly coming out that he likes birds.

and Yak Baks

Ah ha ha ha ha.

:mad:

can you name her weapons?

Two giants hooters that would be the envy of her peers.

I didn't know Jade was so much ambitious.

And here come those hooters:

Aaaah. Hooters.

avril?
hey Jade, what would you do if you did conquer Earth?
You'd free us all right?

The rise of the internets and plugged-in culture- cellphones, games consoles, myspace, ipods- and our increasing dependence on it all to keep a grasp on happiness. The death of bubblegum pop, the birth of hip pop and effectively the endorsement of promiscuity among young girls and boys. 9/11, the death of pope john paul 2, sonic youth showing their age, the war in iraq, BUSH AND BLAIR BFF, films with jack black in them, nobody is interested in tennis, reunions of bands, is henry rollins gay or what, he never seems to have a girlfriend, what the cock is that shit?, all the culture in the united kingdom is dead, indie is popular, the new version of AIM, global warming, israel kicking ass.

It's going to be the century of Paris Hilton. I believe the original question was just about this decade.

Oh melly, will you be my husband? I would be top or bottom whatever you want.

probably. i'm aiming to just sit in my pajamas sipping vitaminwater and end war.


haha. i guess i do keep it sort of quiet. i can't let my plans get out!


flaming swords, getting my enemies drunk, playing apple o' at full blast on repeat.. b00bz.

I had one of those in the 90's

Probably the most exciting thing in this decade.

Yeah, the most unbelieveable thing of the decade !
