It baffles me how people still believe that animation is only meant for kids while there's hundreds if not thousands of adult animations out there. These must be the same people who think Adam Sandler movies are "adult" in comparison.

Thank God I was actually able to meet Steven Erikson. I'm sure all the other malazanies were excited to see him too.

Honestly a pretty overhated decade. It is a time where the internet and social media started getting more advanced and mainstream but weren't as prominent as they were during the 2010s decade. It was also a time where many famous events happened such as:
9/11, the War on Terror, the election of Barack Obama (the first black American president), the 2007-8 finanical crisis, the rise of many famous websites such as Facebook, Wikipedia, YouTube, etc., Saddam Hussein captured, the Y2K crisis, the release of many famous devices such as the iPod, Kindle, Blaclberry, Android, etc., and much, much more.
Then there's the media. Some are mixed about it but most consider the media to actually be pretty good. This was when many iconic movies, shows and video games came out.
Movies such as The Dark Knight, Shrek, Cast Away, The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Monster's Inc., Finding Nemo, No Country For Old Men, and so on.
Shows such as The Office, The Sopranos, Doctor Who, SpongeBob SquarePants, Breaking Bad, Dexter, Malcolm in the Middle and so on.
Games such as God of War, Gradn Theft Auto: San Andreas, Half-Life 2, Shadow of the Colossus, Okami, Portal and so on.
The ironic thing is that those who grew up in the 2000s complained about them and said it was a terrible decade. Now as of this year they all look back on the 2000s and say they were a much simpler and fun time.

Person 1: Man I miss the 2000s. They were a much more innocent time don't you agree?
Person 2: Uh, if I can remember 10 years ago you told me that you hated growing up in the 2000s.
Person 1: Really? I said that years ago?
Person 2: Yep. Now it seems like you and everyone else who didn't like the decade are now starting to feel all nostalgic about it since you guys constantly complain abiut the 2010s.
Person 1: Huh. Well I guess you should never say it can't get worse. At first I thought last decade was bad, but then the 2010s came and it was a lot, lot worse. Besides, maybe I was too hard on the past decade (hey at least people weren't overly obsessed with the internet so much and they actually talked to each other in person without a phone).

Any child who grew up with The Chronicles of Narnia books and movies in the 2000s (mainly the live action movies which gave a bit more exposure).
There were so much fantasy themed generations in the 2000s like Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and The Chronicles of Narnia. But which one I'm personally part of is the Narnia generation because I have the most emotional connection to the Narnia books because they were my favorite novels growing up.

Basically to assume that living a really long life is horrible and dangerous. Let's say that you were currently alive and something extremely unpleasant has happened to you that would possibly result in mental scars. Something so bad that it will stick with you for the rest of your life and you just can't wait for death.
Death is an absolutely natural part of life. You're gonna die at some point so you might as well accept it while you still can. Sometimes it would be much better for most people who really have it worse than others.

Life truly can be a fate worse than death. I know some people who have it so worse that they are just wanting to be put out of their misery because their pain (whether it be physically, mentally or emotionally) lasts the longer they live.

Not to be confused with the whiskey of the same name, this is a special alternative term to describe dimpled chins instead of "Butt Chin". Unlike "Butt Chin", this new term describes how the cleft chin itself is more shaped like an apple instead of the human buttocks, as with how the verticle cleft within the chin also resembles a vertical cut within an apple just like a Jack O' Lantern. "Jack" in this saying is meant to reference how apples are often actually used as Jack O' Lanterns sometimes instead of pumpkins.
Look dude, instead of making fun of my cleft chin and saying how much it looks like a butt, how about you just call it a "Jack Apple Chin" instead?

Basically, people (especially teens and adults) who read, watch or play something that's not really intended for their actual age demographic. One example is Harry Potter which was originally intended for children and adolescents but quickly caught on with adults as well.
Hank the Cowdog was originally written for adults, but became incredibly popular with children. That's one example of the periphery demographic stereotype reversed (the stereotype being that most think that adults always read something originally intended for kids, but now it's kids reading something originally intended for adults).
