Early 2020s 

The years from 2020 to 2022. This era is known for being so-bad-you-wouldn't-understand. It was full of fires, COVID-19, wars and lots of good memes

These years weren't all trash though. We had cool games like Animal Crossing, FNF, Among Us and Doom. Also Biden became the president back in 2021.

The pandemic started on 2020 and quickly became a headache to most people and we entered a quarantine. TikTok became even more popular and with that society entered in its darkest age.

In 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine and that was pretty bad. Rn the pandemic is probably ending... right? RIGHT!?!?
- Bro, the early 2020s sucked! Let's go back to the 2010s!

- Are you kidding? It wasn't THAT bad! We got the three spidermen together! Also I'm sure the Mid-2020s are gonna be lit!

Early 2010's 

A time period spanning from 2010-2014, and in some cases, 2015. This era felt quite different from 2016 and beyond in terms of music, movies, the internet, video games, memes, creativity, and politics. Also, the amount of bs from people being significantly less common back then. Why social media did become more popular within around 2014 and definitely 2015, it wasn't as prominent as it is now.
I miss the early 2010's so much. I just can't stand all this crappy music and idiots online right now.

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
