Other than Twitter was irrelevant and tech companies weren't yet at war with the American people, not much. Those years generally kind of sucked.

The economy was still kind of shitty due to the dot-com bubble bursting. The biggest terrorist attack in the history of the country happened, which gave the war mongers in both parties leverage to spent $2 trillion on foreign wars (that just recently ended, thanks to Trump). And then the decade ended with the housing bubble bursting, which caused a whole new bucket of shit to hit the fan.

Only someone who was a naive young kid during the 2000s would think it was good times.

Now the 90s were great. That's when I was a kid...
