Y2K 

Supposedly at Midnight on January 1, 2000, all electronic devices would cease to work. Lots & Lots of people stocked up on food & household items. Y2K didn't happen tho!

I prepared for Y2K & had enuf food for a family of 4 for a year or enuf for 1 person for 4 years. I had all the food groups & lots of water too. I went up into the wilderness & came back to find out Y2K didn't even happen! Supposedly ATM machines & grocery stores' cash registers wouldn't work. The 1st thing I bought was a gallon of Hershey's Chocolate Syrup!

A short way to say year 2000. This is also used to describe a style and the year 2000 fashion era.

Paris Hilton is a Y2K icon

1)Year 2000. (Y=year, 2k=2 times k, k being short for kilo which means 1000)

2)Computers only counted the last two digits of a number, so they didn't know the difference between 2000 or 1900. This would cause various problems with dates and finances, and would cause a big mess. People were panicking and saying that when 2000 rolled around, all the computers would crash and the nuclear bombs would go off or something.

Good thing I'm Amish, Y2k won't affect me!

Short for "the year 2000." It's usually used to describe a fashion style of the early 2000's. It consists of bright pinks, purples, and yellows. Some low rise denim skirts or jeans also fit this vibe/aesthetic. Form fitting clothing is a huge staple of Y2K fashion. Buttonup cardigans, tie-front shirts, and sweaters are a huge part of the trend. It's soo cute ;p

Her fluffy pink hat is SO y2k vibes.
Marissa, your aesthetic is totally y2k.

Y2K 

biggest scam since the pyramid scheme

responsible for the biggest sales in history for generators, bottled water,
and useless computer books and software(which probably wouldn't have worked anyway)

Y2K was like the pyramid scheme in that millions of people spent a shitload of money for nothing, and a few people got very rich from it.
