Farmville
An old farming game that everybody used to play back in the golden Facebook days (2009-2012). Not sure if it still exists but it was quite a chill game to play. Millennials will remember its existence, zoomers are totally oblivious.

Applesauce
Taylor: Remember back when our moms used to pack us applesauce in our lunch bags?
Jesse: Lol ye, brings back childhood memories
*Taylor and Jesse proceed to crack open some applesauce with the boys*

Minecraft PE
What "Minecraft: Bedrock Edition" used to be called for mobile devices. The PE stands for Pocket Edition, which honestly sounds like a much more applicable name than Bedrock. Thus, I will keep referring it to Pocket Edition.
Back then, Pocket Edition was basically a Lite version of Minecraft meant for on-the-go experiences. It was more for killing time (e.g. waiting for bus) than for actually getting invested in the game. Today however, the transition from PE to Bedrock Edition has basically turned the mobile game into full-fledged Minecraft (with some limitations of course).

Google Glass
Something that was once heavily talked (and criticized) about around 2013-2015 but quickly dwindled from the public's eye after that.
Almost nobody remembers Google Glass anymore, that is unless you randomly happen to stumble upon it by chance and all the memories start flushing back. And if you do remember, Google Glass was honestly quite ahead of its time. It really feels more like a futuristic tech you'd expect to see today than back in 2013.
Hell, now that I think about it, Google Glass is a MUCH more better and useful concept than Zuckerberg's lousy Metaverse.
I read some of the definitions of 'glasshole'; yes, privacy would be a central problem to the Glass, however to be quite frank, to think you can identify some random girl and instantly pull up their FB is pure science-fiction. Perhaps a bit more feasible now, but def not possible back in 2013. Today, the concern is still privacy, but it's on the other end of the horseshoe; not for the privacy of others but of yourself. Zuckerberg's Metaverse (and the entirety of Facebook) is a FAR more heinous offense to privacy than Google Glass.
But overall, the pros of the Google Glass heavily overshadows the con(cern)s. I would LOVE to have an HUD with me at all times, where I can see the time and weather. I honestly hope Google Glass can make a comeback in the 2020s. Just note that if Google made a new one, it would prove far more capable of these privacy-breaking features as todays silicon chips are over 500% faster.

Ok Google
An iconic command you say that triggers Google Assistant on your Android phone, tablet, or Google Home speaker. Saying "Ok Google" has been a thing on Android phones ever since 2013 back when it was known as Google Now. The trigger phrase has now expanded to include "Hey Google".
Friend 1: *rings doorbell*
Friend 2: Heyy come in! So what brings you h—
Friend 1: OK GOOGLE READ MY TEXTS

Fatigues
With regards to the military:
1) Menial duties, especially as punishment.
2) Military clothing worn when doing said menial tasks.

When we saw that our housemaids came all dressed up in military uniforms, we finally realized why they did business as "The Fatigues"
