It still had a surge of popularity in the early 2000s though. It counts.

Also, what was the generic forums model that everyone was using back in the early 2000s? I remember it had circular buttons with a note icon over forums subheaders that was gray when read/marked and orange when unread/new messages appeared. I can't think of the name (PHP?) but it was used everywhere for fandoms in the same way Wikias are now.

My Chemical Romance. I never listened to them, but they were loving huge when I was in middle school. Should I post a picture of them or just a Hot Topic?

I got some very cool earrings from Hot Topic less than a month ago, so it doesn't seem totally '00s to me.

New grounds and their flash games. My favorite was the "beat up Metallica" one because Metallica had made Napster go away and I had used Napster to get many of my favorite songs and to discover tons of music :rip:

Hot topic has some cool nerdy stuff and their online store has tons of really nice clearance clothes and shoes for super cheap that don't look goth or punk at all.

They've grown with the times. But I still remember them blasting some horrible metal at levels so high I couldn't hear the cashier and me buying gigantic black pants with about a thousand pointy studs and 50 chains. Ah the memories

They still do all those things, just now with more cheap anime T-shirts in sizes no anime fan can fit in.

I went in there because they had some kind of sale on those little blind boxes that my kids like and it seems more like a general pop culture/comedy store, similar to spencer's, now. Didn't really give off a big goth vibe like the early 2000's.

This high-tech, psychological thriller is set in the shadowy world of the Internet. Sondra Brummel is recovering from a skiing accident in her boyfriend's mansion, and accidently contacts a possible killer in an Internet chatroom. She and her friend Misty enter a virtual game that that becomes all too real.

Jamie's School Dinners. I remember the tabloids printing all these pictures of kids reaching desperately through the bars of the school fence like they're in a refugee camp or something to get the stuff their mothers were delivering from the local chippy (to spare them the horror of having to eat fruit and vegetables).

I was too young to notice at the time but according to older friends, the 'twats on tiny bikes' phenomenon was real.
There was also this brief period where fold-up scooters were to be the Next Big Thing in urban transport with important businessmen whizzing around the place on them.

I used to work with two ladies in their 40s and they would only listen to nu-metal/rock all loving day.
Maybe it was their second rebellion oh no wait they had lovely taste in everything.

Now that I'm getting into my late-30's, I can say with authority that that seems to happen to women who get knocked up just as they're getting into their prime clubbing years. I've come to think of it as a defense mechanism that keeps them from realizing how poo poo their lives are.

I can corroborate this assessment. Funny how people get locked into a culture bubble. Not me. I don't have kids or a lovely life so I'm current, hip and selfish.
