you find yourself parched after a long day of skateboarding around your culdesac and spiking your hair with Dep10 in the early 2000's. Your older brother is blasting a P.O.D. song on his stereo. You reach into your fridge and find a Sobe and head to the family computer to play Lego Island. It is a good day.

Strangely accurate, except that I'd stopped spiking my hair up in middle school, all my friends skated but I never got into it (kept thinking roller blades would come back in style), my older brother had left for college by then, and I got an iMac in the early 2000's and still used my N64 for gaming - the computer was for porn and guitar tabs.

A far, far smaller proportion of your generation frequented these places, at least more than 10 years ago that is. I was able to fuck around on 4chan and somethingawful when they were founded because I was teenager with way too much time on my hands at the time, and it was part of my social life growing up. 4chan would have been founded in your 30's or later, the only reason I'm still on this site is because it was implanted in my brain during my juvenile years.

Almost. I want to go back to 1997-99 which was probably the best time of my life as young teen. I had the best friend I could ever wish for and we did and experienced a lot of weird shit every day and spend the hours when we weren't outside or playing creating our fake bullshit chuuni world with characters. It was basically a three year long non-stop LARP. Good times. Also finally found my style of music then and found tons of new great songs every week whereas I can maybe find one new song per month nowadays and most bands I liked are dead or became mainstream shit anyway.

I just spent a good ten minutes trying to find the original SoBe bottle, the one that said "South Beach Brew" or something on it before they shortened it to SoBe. It was the pina colada flavor I think and it had the lizard on the edge.

Please someone confirm I'm not crazy or from another timeline.
