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!?!?

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.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
