Subject: Did The 00s Meet Your Expectations?

Written By: Trimac20 on 07/21/06 at 1:39 pm

In 1995 (if you can remember that far back), what were some of your predictions, expectations of what would happen in the new millenium? Nuclear apocalypse and holocaust? Y2K bust-out? Hotels on the moon? A totally new musical genre? How did the new decade/century/millenium meet your expectations?

Well, I was only 5/6 in 1995 so I didn't really care. But in the late '90s, I expect the '00s to be a copy of The Jetsons. ;D

lol...that's alot to expect to change in a few years. I never really thought much about the 00s myself. I thought it would be a slightly updated version of the 90s, but I knew we wouldn't see any groundbreaking developments like smart robots, space travel.etc til well into the 21st century. Well, I guess the Digital Revolution is groundbreaking enough.

I had no expectations for them. Except I thought Y2K was a giant crock of bullcrap at the time.

I never thought the 00s were going to be different from any other decade, so I had no expectations going in.

I guess I was a bit curious as to what would happen, but I really didnt expect there to be any big changes in 5 years.

In 1995 I was 10, so I was a bit over the whole "2000 = Jetson Era" mindset. So yeah, they did meet my expectation... nothing too different from the 90s IMO.
