How do you now look back at the year 1999?

I just remember all the tv specials and cartoons that were around because we were reaching the year 2000.

he seems to be wearing a kipper.

My 11th birthday was in 1999, i got pokemon blue. That was a good day

Very mixed because it was the best year where I got my first kiss from my high school sweet heart as well as our first time at sex leading to the best two years of my life but then it's lot of pain inside me because she was killed in 2001 by a drunk driver so it makes those years very bitter sweet.

>having a comic underneath your monitor

did boomers really do this?

it wasn't abnormal to see them covered like a fridge with notes and what not.

I was 2 years old in 1999. I don't remember a thing from that year.

I was going to shit post thinking back on it it's really odd how that's the last generation that had it easy (as a whole) at finding love. Now we are entering the "lonely generation" where most kids born after 1997~2000 are lucky to have even one friend.

I spent a lot of it in a bomb shelter. It was pretty cool. I got to play with other kids, and the kids who were normally assholes were on their best behavior due to their parents being there 24/7. Also, the fear of dying might have mellowed them out. I played with other kids a lot back then. I was always an oversensitive pussy, but I didn't go full socially anxious weirdo until I was about 10 or 11 in 2002. Me and the neighborhood kids befriended some stray dogs at the time. They were the best dogs ever, very playful and affectionate, always excited when we came back from school, but none of our parents wanted to adopt any of them, and the neighbors hated having a bunch of strays in the yard, so they poisoned them all. It was pretty traumatic. My grandpa died that year and mom had a nervous break down because of his death and the bombing. It was a pretty shit year all around now that I think about it.

I watched the first Pokemon film Mew against Mewtwo. LIKE A NORMAL PERSON.
Real user.

why did you censor your mom's face?
i want to fap to her and now that you have hidden her face i will have to find and fuck her myself.

you are off by 10 years

That was the year we moved from my hometown to where I've been living ever since. It was kinda weird being the "new kid" in school for a little bit but that faded out. It was also the same year I got my first Gameboy Color and Pokemon Blue so that was pretty cool and is what helped me make my first friends here.

>How do you now look back at the year 1999?
rollerblades, lol

>I watched the first Pokemon film
This
Went to BK afterwards

Que? It's easier to find people more than ever in your niche.

I wish I was born even 5 years later.

>How do you now look back at the year 1999?
i can't remember shit because my life was boring as fuck and it still is to this day. I was 9 years old back then

Really comfy, had 3 good friends we used to play vidya on 1 computer in the living room 2 of us watched while 1 person played. Afterwards, we would hit each other with bamboo sticks and fight till one of us cried.

I wanna go back.

>Was 38 in 1999

So you're almost 60 now? How the hell do you deal with that? How did you end up here?

You pussy, I was 9.

He's lying.

I was more hype about Disney's new Fantasia movie than I was about the year. Years changed all the time and I didn't get what the big deal was. But the thought of soon watching pic related with mommy? Now that was something.

Decent enough year. I was still a year or so out from getting in good shape but wasn't a total fatfuck either. Had a good group of friends. I never really gamed or anything like they did, and yeah I was the "weird" one. I remember being bigtime into wrestling. Was a huge korn fan lol as I was fucking 14 after all. Used to get into verbal and sometime physical altercations with limp bizkit fans. Yes there was a korn vs. limp bizkit rivalry at my shitty school.

Some people were dumb enough to kill themselves because the world was gonna end due to change of the millennium.
Was pretty fun I guess

I arrived, as did so many others, as part of "The Fappening."
I found a few boards I liked and decided to stay.
I check a few everyday, usually at lunch.
I post quite a bit and can shitpost with the best.
Never married, no kids, really low level federal government job, planning to retire at 62, live in a bad neighborhood, efficiency studio.
I bought a few acres in the rural area I grew up in and have an Airstream that I will fix up and live in.
I also have a really great dog.
No gamer here, but I do like to target shoot as often as I can.
Micro prepper, even have a bug out bag.
Gave up on dating and women in general a long time ago.
I am pretty short and have lost most of my hair, still have all my teeth and since I walk to work no fats here.
I am a lifelong Mountain Dew Addict.
Except for salads at lunch I practically live on Ramen (Top not the bottom tier Maruchan), Pizza and BBQ Beef Hot Pockets.
Even though I have a lot of years behind me, my parents and 2 grandmother's are still alive and mostly live independently, so I probably have a while to go.
I get asked if it ever gets better, not really, you just stop giving a shit and it just IS, not better, not worse, just coasting along.
I accept who and what I am and don't pretend or fantasize about what might have been or what never will be.
Just doing my own thing and not caring what anyone else thinks.

Is that a picture of luke who works for linus "dick suckem" sebastian?

>3 years old
I was cute af.

>was playing the shit out of pokemon red as a ten year old
>school was actually fun and I had friends
>city wasn't a ghetto shithole yet and I'd ride my bicycle everywhere
>wouldn't start having depressive thoughts until a year later

I guess I wasn't y2k compatible.

I'd just had my first kid and was on my way to prison for 10 years.

9 years old, no friends but that was okay, I had my vidya. thought it was funny when my mom stockpiled a shit ton of food for the y2k bug that never happened.

Fuck you I was for more than half of it at least

I was born that year so I guess in the large scale of events it was the worst year of my life

based boomer. good to have you around here, old man

I remember it fondly. Especially New Years that year being the turn of the millennium. First time I got drunk, first kiss, got hit in the head with a rocket, just an awesome time. This banging tune came out for it too. Top notch. A time before I had to hate so many different groups of people.

>the fappening
He's not a true user. He's literally part of the reason Jow Forums fell apart.

>the year 1999
That was the turning point year of my life. I was 39, and I spent most of the year waiting for my fiancee (who lived 2200 miles away) to finish graduate school so that we could get married and she could come live with me. We agreed to get married in March, and we had the wedding in November. Even though I lived alone for most of 1999, it was the happiest year of my life because it was the first time that I finally belonged to someone. Prior to September 1998, I had never had a girlfriend before, and my life had been spinning out of control with loneliness and sadness and fear that I would never get the experience of having a girlfriend.

Very comfy year. I was a NEET up in alaska. Would sometimes go for walks outside and see some nature, but a lot of time I just played on the computer. I guess not much has changed since then other than my location. Nearest costco was like an hour away and didnt really have any neighbors. Comfy weather for most of the year and never got too hot.
