I've had this saved since 2005,
yet there are probably 16yo zoomers on here.

I have a Nadine Jansen pic from 2006
when I was a HSophomore.

I got Guitar Hero new for my 15th b-day, half my life ago.

It wasn't very different then,
and you have shit for sense if you disagree,
except I had to save pics in a program folder on a 80gb hard-drive
because it was a shared family PC.
What's changed is that our youth is gone.

My first flash drive was a white 256mb Kingston for a career center course (fall 2006).

My job requires none of the schooling I've had since then.
I could've done it then and I'd be rich by now if I had.
The 2000s felt a thousand times longer than the 2010s,
I thought my 20s would feel similarly long.
How we just zipped through the last decade keeps blowing my mind.
