The Before Time

"The Before Time" is a reference to the 1966 Star Trek episode "Miri" in which the Enterprise encounters a planet inhabited only by children, due to a pandemic infecting and eventually killing all the adults. The children refer to "the before time" as the time when adults were present.

This episode was parodied in the South Park Episode "Wacky Molestation Adventure" in which the children claim to be molested and are subsequently removed from their adult guardians.

In 2020, the phrase has come to mean the time before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, when people could freely associate and go to bars and parties.
"In "The Before Time" we had a buffet lunch every day. Now we just stare at each other over zoom.

Land Before Time

To refer to a movie better than Jurassic Park

The most badass epic motherfucking dinosaur movie ever created. This movie follows the story of a tough ass brontosaurus named littlefoot and his crew of little shithead friends. These little pussyshit dinosaurs defeated a BIGASS T-Rex at the end of the movie and found heaven itself.

The Before Time

'The Before Time' is now used to reference the era proceeding the virus apocalypse of 2020.

While commonly believed to originate from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, this is a classic Mandela Effect misperception of history. No video exists of any character in the film ever using that phrase.

Rather, South Park Season 4, episode 16 parodies Beyond Thunderdome, and is the true origin of the saying.
In The Before Time we had an actual society. Jobs, parties, sports, schools, and other public gatherings were once normal and common.
