1. Some Band Called Eiffel 65

Everybody loved this song!

2. The Original Razr Flip Phone

You were kind of not cool if you didn’t have this phone but I kinda wish we could go back to this tbh. It was the perfect phone to SLAM shut when you got mad at someone on the other end. Now you just touch a button to hang up, a.k.a. laaaaaaaaame. How are our friends and hook ups supposed to gauge our anger now?

3. Gas At Bargain Bin Prices!

Remember when you could fill up your whole tank with a $20 and still get some McDonald’s or something? RIP, ever having a life savings!

4. TRL

5. A Little Game Called Pogs

Before Tivo and DVR you did whatever you could to hop off that school bus and get in front of your TV at 3:00.

6. This cultural Artifact

And you knew when one of your friends was on the internet because you’d call them (when people still did that) and get the busy signal.

7. Limewire

Hello, being in college between 2001-2008!

8. Digital Pets!

Tamagotchi Tamatown Pink and Green Tama-go with Kuchipatchi Gotchi Figure Charm

If you don’t feed him when the alarm goes off he will die.

9. AOL Instant Messenger

I still have my AOL screen name from way back when. You don’t want to know what it is.

10. XY Magazine

If you were a gay male person in the early 2000s you relished XY, probably the first place you caught a glimpse of other gay dudes your age making out with each other on the pages of a magazine!
