This current decade has been scary.
Take TV. In the 90's, most of the people you saw on TV, they were upwardly mobile, they were professional, they had standards, they were someone you could relate to or had a crush on.
Even a silly show like Saved by the Bell.
Or Walker Texas Ranger. Cosby.
The 2000's have been....a sweaty, naked guy on the beach on Survivor.
I think there's alot of symbolism there.
The 90's were about professionals making gains. The 2000's, people are spent, they're dirty, sweaty, unshaved making firewood on the Survivor Beach.
When I flip through reruns of 80's and 90's shows, no one was like that. It doesn't seem real now.
Or the NBA. Even as recently as 95, 97, MJ, Pippen, Olajuwon, R Miller, Barkley, Costas, Hannah Storm, Peter Vescey on NBC.
Now it's a bunch of idiots. In 10 years! WTF?!?
Wrestling, from the early 80's, through 96/97/98, it was watchable. It's like it got turned off after that.
It's all been too quick.
