Things about the 2000s you despise.

[Betancore]

Music. The TV shows. Back when I was 5, the kids programs did not suck. Now they've just run dry and they're making anything and everything into a program. It's not even entertaining anymore. And social networking; at least when it's misused.

Realistic games. The most fun I have had gaming was probably mario games. If I wanted realistic I would go outside, now excuse me while I get shot out of pipes and jump on enemies that share a name with a derogatory slang for Italians.

Internet meme's. We didn't have those fucking things in the 90's.

Granted, some of them are actually pretty funny for the first 5 minutes or so. After that... dear god people, what is wrong with some of you?

Agree with this as well. We get it, there was a video that repeatedly said "OVER 9000" a few times, and it was funny. It's not funny 2 years later.

I wasn't very much fond of the gent who was in charge of my country for eight of those ten years.

Also, Twilight and Nu Metal.

 

[Deathlord665]

agreed and the bringing in of some really retarded rap artists/failwhales

 

[Randvek]

The downfall of Rock as a mainstream music genre.

The downfall of rock, the sanitizing of alternative, the rise of country... I'd toss in something about rap, but that was more of a 90s thing that's still going. Pop music has been in the toilet for some time and there's no end in sight.

....fucken new cartoons....

Oh Bush how he got elected twice is beyond me.

 

[arsenicCatnip]

The slow, painful death of traditional animation. Once Jimmy Neutron and Aqua Teen Hunger Force hit the airwaves, proving that computer animation and Flash, respectively, were both feasible and cheap, everything went down the drain. The same can be said of film as well, due mostly to Pixar's unbroken string of wild success. Don't get me wrong, I love Jimmy Neutron, Aqua Teen and Pixar... But not so much that I want to see traditional animation completely gone in a tide of crap, which is the way things are going right now.

Also, I hate most children born after the year 2000.

I miss traditional 2-D animation. It's depressing to watch the shows, and movies, that I loved as a child become washed away with Pixar's success.

I despise children in general, but I miss MANNERS. Etiquette and politeness that seems to have vanished with the advent of the '00s.

The downfall of Rock as a mainstream music genre.

So glad this was the first reply.... Although I don't think the rock genre is the problem, its the music industry IMO and we are seeing a 1980's revival, where all the popular songs are about debauchery and no longer the philosophical probing you got mainly in the 60's and to a lesser degree the 90's (eg. Tool).

Second worst thing.... the degradation of Songebob Squarepants my inner child died when the writing for that show went down hill (and it has).

 

[Devi Darkside]

Annoying internet lingo, emo/screamo, Twilight, movie remakes (Though I did like the Batman ones.), fat people in tiny clothes, the Bush administration and Sara Palin.

90% of the Music

This.

The 60's get the Beatles and Elvis.
70's get David Bowie and AC/DC.
80's get U2 and Guns n Roses.
90's get The Manic Street Preachers and Radiohead.

And what do I get? Paramore, Green Day and My Chemical Romance.

I hate you God!

 

[Egobrain]

Movies. 90% of everything made in the 2000's has been dumbed down for the youths of today.
Explosions, wild graphics, big tits. Where are the superb plots? The morals learned?
Where have the meat and potatoes of film gone?
There has been nothing in the last ten years that has tickled my intellect.
Ok, I exagerate, but its only been like 10 films in as many years.
All the rest are rubbish. It makes my inner movie snob cry.

 

[Sightless Wisdom]

Popular culture for sure, but that's difficult to discern why. I have to wonder if I would love metal music from the 80's if I had been alive when it was possible(I think I would...but hey).

Aside from that(and this is my main issue with the past decade) I despise ignorance, stupidity and worst of all complete lack of independence or character. I hate to sound like an angry old man but I have to make the point that we are seeing generations of absolutely pathetic people. Almost all of my generation(meaning the people currently my age) are not intelligent in the slightest, they are completely close minded, and they have no ability to make their own decisions.

 

[Aesir23]

Guys wearing their pants 2/3 of the way down their buttocks. I mean come on, I barely know you. I'd rather not know what your boxers look like.

 

[Jezzascmezza]

The music.
Oh God, the music!!
I swear, in 50 years time, no one is gonna remember the music that's coming out today.
Mainstream pop bullshit...
(Grumbles and shakes walking stick at young whipper-snappers walking by my front porch.)

 

[Ekit]

The childrens programming and the music.
