20 Things To Give You That 2000s Nostalgia Feeling

These were great fun, especially for kids like me who enjoyed reading.

The go-to program for those who wanted to download music. There was no Spotify during the early 2000s, so if you didn’t want to pay for music, LimeWire was your only option. The only problem was it often took hours just to download one song, but when it was finished and you could listen to it, there was no better feeling.

For some reason this brand of trucker cap was a thing in the early 2000s. French designer Christian Audigier helped take the brand mainstream, with celebrities such as Britney Spears, Jay-Z, and Ashton Kutcher all sporting the designer garb.

They say nothing really ever goes out of fashion and flare jeans prove that. Part of the counter culture movement of the 60s, this interesting fashion trend came back around in the late 90s/early 2000s. Along with low-rise jeans, lace-up jeans, and patchwork jeans, flare jeans are best left as a nostalgia afterthought.

This was the way kids used to communicate. Turn on the dial-up internet, log into MSN, and chat about everything that happened at school. This was the precursor to every other form of messaging app now available. Shout out to ICQ-Chat too!
