“Sorry, I got to return this video”
“Mike? I love that guy, I got him on speed dial”
“Do you have any quarters for a phone?”
“Bill Cosby really is America’s dad”
“Can I borrow that VHS?”
“Sorry, I can’t come. My favourite show is on”
“Do you know where a phone is?”

“Put that Furby away! We have to go play Neopets.”
I was surprised to hear neopets is still a thing. A friend went and checked it on a whim.
“We need to get WMDs out of Saddam’s hands”
Goddamnit no. 20 years ago was the 80s bro.
It’s 2004
Happy new year 2005!
Surly there were always people who say things like “wow, I can’t believe this thing is happening it’s like it’s 2004” or something.
“it’s literally the year two thousand and four”
“Damn, Cindy Crawford is hot!”
Go ahead, look up photos of her now, age isn’t doing her former beauty very well…
She’s almost 59 years old, and looks damn good for her age.
I did, and I would still say that. You wouldn’t happen to have her confused with Rep. Cindy Crawford, the Arkansas politician?
If you’re looking at the Wikipedia article, that photo was from like a decade ago. Age is catching up with her…
I was looking at Insta posts from August. Difference of opinion, I guess.
2024 photo. I still wouldn’t kick her out of bed for eating crackers.
That’s the problem with beauty isn’t permanent. It happens to everyone from Madonna, Dick Van Dyke and Lynn Neilson. This doesn’t apply to everyone tho. Tom Cruise, Scarlett Johansson and Dewayne “The Rock” Johnson have manage to be exceptions to this rule although it’s much easier for men to do. In general women aren’t really allowed to age. Even if there looks aren’t important. I remember when the election was happening and people were dunking on Kamara Harris for having wrinkles like she isn’t a woman in her 60’s.
For some people looking good is literally their job and cost is no object when you’re rich.
Yeah but the cost to not looking like you’re aging is going from descending a hill to falling off a cliff and landing much lower
There’s also a non-financial cost to keeping up with beauty standards via plastic surgery. Madonna is a perfect example. As soon as someone gets a facelift the ageing-clock speeds up and repeated lifts have diminishing returns until a person is left with an unexpressive piece of pleather for a face. Michael Jackson’s nose was also a good example of such issues.
Ska is forever!
Blackberry and Nokia will always be around.
Ska is forever, though.
“Ska is what plays in a 13-year-old kid’s head when he gets extra mozzarella sticks”
2004 Nokia bricks are probably still around. Them things were indestructible.
Hand me my Razor
People who want to shave still say this sometimes.
I lost one of my Diablo install CDs can i borrow your set
“What do you think about John Kerry?”
“Jared from Subway is such an inspiration!”
“Disco will never die.”
And it never did. *sips beer*
“Could you please not use the phone? Gotta dial up to connect to the BBS”
Believe it or not, I recently have to script transferring files to and from a BBS. Got to love working with state governments.
I still love telnet.
It’s more secure than uploading to AWS 🤷♂️
“I can’t believe you didn’t put me in your top 8 on Myspace!!”
Also, “w00t!!”
… People don’t say “w00t”?
I say woot. At least 2-3 times a week.
Only lol survived
That’s the saddest news I’ve ever received.
Make the internet leet again!
My roflcopter begs to differ.
And ‘lmao’ and ‘rofl’.
“The American economy is doing great!”
I think a lot of these were still being said 20 years ago. People were using Netflix by mail and Redbox in the last 20 years.
Lots of people still had brick phones by Nokia, etc which had “speed dial”. You would hold 1 for voicemail but could program 2-9 for other numbers.
Lost season 1 premiered in 2004 and you better believe people made plans around it’s schedule to watch it.
Yeah, I think the premise is actually “What did people say 20 years ago that they don’t now.”
Merely using the word mm"premise" correctly makes one sound 200+ IQ in 2025.
Damn, there’s a paper jam in the fax machine again
Sadly, fax machines are very much still in use …
There’s a disturbing number of places that still use fax machines. They won’t let you scan things and send it via e-mail, it has to be faxed. I deal with it a lot filling out my medical paperwork.
Is that available for OS/2 Warp?
