Subject: What things from the 10s did you like?
Written By: NightmareFarm on 08/22/21 at 10:50 pm
It seems most of us dislike the previous decade and feel cathartic criticising it. I am not exempt from this and I could write an essay on why I hated the 2010s.
However, there has to be at least something everyone liked in the ten years that spanned 2010-2019.
As for me, I liked being a kid/preteen during the early 10s for the typical reasons. Having lots of energy, youth, no responsibility, etc etc. I was a lot happier and more energetic back then even compared to my peers. I had lots of great memories back in 2010-mid 2014 that I will never forget.
Speaking objectively, I liked the memes of the early 10s(not the late 10s, memes got soulless after 2015), the 8th generation of gaming(PS4/Xbox one/3DS/Wii U/Switch), some of the TV shows such as breaking bad, mr robot, regular show, overlord, my hero academia, the flash, arrow, etc. For media it was a decent time except for music which was terrible all throughout. Early 10s internet was also quite fun. It still felt non corporate, or at least not completely dominated by corporate control. It feels like there was more creativity back then as well whereas now popular online entertainment is so soulless, unoriginal and corporate like those gamer streamers who all act the same and say the same stupid stuff and are motivated mainly by money rather than heart.
Sorry for rambling but yeah anyways, what did you like from the 10s?

Hmm. I'm going to say, the music. And esp. the music of 2015 to 2017.

Medical technology. Its come a long way since I was just a toddler years ago.
If I had my heart attack in the 1970s or 1980s, I would not have survived, but with todays medical technology and surgical techniques, I'm still here.

A heart attack? That must have been terrifying. I'm sorry to hear that.

A few songs (Maniac by Kid Cudi, Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jaspen, and Moves Like Jagger by Maroon 5 come to mind, and actually, I might be forgetting some).
There were a lot of adventures created by people other than Maxis (although I liked their missions as well) created in the 2010-12 period in Spore Galactic Adventures that I thought were really freaking awesome.
Some YouTube Poops.
Some books, such as "Why Does the World Exist?" by Jim Holt, and others that I can't remember at the moment. I think the 2013 copy of that one book I have is nearly a carbon copy of the 2012 copies, but if it isn't, that's why I would possibly rate 2013 higher than 0/10.

Yes, thanks. I was fortunate to recognize the signs at home and shortly after took a cab to the nearest hospital. My actions probably saved my life.

The marriage equality ruling "Obergefell v. Hodges" on June 26, 2015. The ruling came out on my one-month anniversary with my boyfriend, and happened to be Pride weekend here in SF. We went down to the Castro and it was packed! It was an epic celebration. I clearly remember the pain from Prop 8 in CA in '08 so this felt amazing as a young gay person.

I didn't like anything. I have some good memories from the mid to late 2010s in my university years, but those were personal life things. There is nothing to be liked about the culture for me. Even GoT and Star Wars ended with sheer disappointment.

I thought Vine could be pretty funny, (9+10=21, Why You Always Lyin', A Potato Flew Around My Room, etc) and meme culture in general I liked, and as some people as said some music that came out during this decade, some Top 100 hits I did like, though this was mostly towards the earlier part of the decade though.
