Get the 2000s mug.Someone who had majority of their childhood years (about age 3-12) in the decade of the 2000s. This is some born from about 1992/3-2001/2. However people born in 1993 and a few years later can remember the 90s but majority of the childhood still unfortunately resides in the 2000s. Likewise, someone born in 2002 and a few years before actually have their childhood overlap into the 2010s!, but majority of their childhood is in the 2000s. This means the main 2000s kids are born between 1995-1998
John is born on the 1st January 1997 so is a prime 2000s kid as he was age 3-12 for the ENTIRE decade. Jackie born on 22nd December 1992 is a 90s/2000s hybrid but mostly a 2000s kid like John. Jack born on August 11th 2001 is a 2000s/2010s kid hybrid but mostly a 2000s kid. Eva born September 2nd 2006 is a 2010s kid.

Shitty decade that will be laughed at much like the 80's. It is very similar to the 80's but less original.
.It is not the "hipster decade" or the decade of indie rock. Most people listen to shitty bling rap, generic pseudo emo/mall punk, stupid brain dead pop or at the end of the decade, ear bleedingly bad fusions of all of those styles a la Brokencyde.
.Everyone tends to become "escapists" which means watch there stupid reality shows, partaaay a lot and watch overrated youtube "celebrities" like Fred while the world crumbles around them.
.Gays are not becoming more accepted, if they were they would be allowed to marry in California and other places.
.Most of the decade is spent with the worst President ever George Bush who America elected TWICE just to show you how stupid America has become in the new decade.
.TV is mostly beyond stupid reality shows and teeny bopper Disney bullshit.
.Nearly every single counterculture movement or non-mainstream music style has been commercialized from punk to emo to indie.
There are some good things about 2000's however.
.In the later half of the decade movies started making a comeback from the shitty sequel and remake period early on with some will be classics like Juno, The Dark Knight and the works of Judd Apatow.
.People become somewhat more environmentally conscious although we still have a ways to go.
.Non-mainstream musical styles like indie rock have become more available via internet radio.
.In the later half of the decade, we elected President Obama who seems at least competent.
.Video games are becoming more diverse with the rise of casual games and indie games.

"The 2000s are a mostly shitty decade defined by bad music, bad movies, bad politics, bad TV and overall shallowness and stupidity. Lets hope the 2010s are better."

Get the 2000s mug.One of many Nameplates worn by the Nissan S-chassis cars. The pinnacle of the marque was in 1987-1988, when the North American Market 200sx recieved the VG30E 3.0liter V6 in the SE trim level. (Note: later model US Market cars wearing the 200sx Badge are actually 2-door sentras, and are in no way related to the 200sx or S-car line)

Get the 200sx mug.Any show from the 2000s decade. Any show that also aired in the late 1990s but continued auring in the 2000s counts too (for example, Will & Grace aired in 1998, but had more episodes in the 2000s, making it part of the 2000s decade mostly).
The most notable 2000s shows include Breaking Bad, The Office, SpongeBob SquarePants, Family Guy, South Park, Doctor Who (2005), Will & Grace, Grey's Anatomy, How I Met Your Mother, The Sopranos, Malcolm in the Middle, Six Feet Under, Dexter and Supernatural.

I hate when people tell me Family Guy is a 90s TV show just because it aired in 1999. While it technically is, it's mostly a 2000s TV show considering how it aired most of its episodes in the 2000s. That would be like saying The Simpsons is an 80s TV show even though the first episode aired in December of 1989 and the majority of the episodes aired in the 1990s.

Get the 2000s TV Show mug.A person born either in the late 90s or mid 2000s (1995-2004) who spent their childhood years in the 2000s. Your childhood is not just from 3 to 12. This also applies to those who spent most of their teen years in the 2000s.
2000s kids born in 1995 -1997 typically try to claim being a 90s kid but do not count as they were not old enough to remember anything or just started gaining the ability to remeber by the end of the decade and many of their informative and impactful years happened on the 2000s. People born in 98 and 99 are automatically 2000s kids and have no seat on the 90s council for obvious reasons (being a newborn or infant).
Depending on when a 2000s kid is born, they can be both a 2000s kid and a 2010s kid and their formulative years stretch over both decades. This typically extends to people born in 98-2004, but can also extend to people who were older teens in the early 2010s (ex: 16 in 2012; born in 96).
Many 2000s kids have never had a world without the internet or a phone. Many of their first phone were flip or touch screen smartphone. 2000s kids had the best reminisce of the 90s and the best eras of all the kid networks as well as peak of tv options compared to children born in the late 2000s or 2010s that watch the Paul Brothers, Lele Pons and get nothing but reboots and live action movies of what the 2000s kids had the original of (also extends to some 90s kids media).
2000s kids are also a part of Generation Z (1995-2012).

Get the 2000s kid mug.Someone born in 2002/2003, who actually remembers the 2000s (and even spent some of their core childhood in the 2000s yet spent half or more of their childhood in the 2010s) unlike someone born in 2006 going like ''I WUS TREE IN 2009 IM A 2000Z KID'' even though they really wouldn't remember much of that decade if anything at all (while spending basically almost their entire childhood in the 2010s).
2006 born: "IM A HONERERY 2000Z KID''
2003 born: ''But weren't you like 3 when the 2000s ended? What could you possibly remember from the 2000s?''
2006 born: ''......''
2003 born: ''Yeah exactly. You see, childhood is 2/3-12. I spent half of my childhood in the 2000s, therefore I am an honorary 2000s kid. You, on the other hand, are a pure 2010s kid.''
