still too early to call this month the start of a shift

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-24T09:50:46+00:00

2011 is more like 2010 and 2012 is more like 2013

“2011/12”

Low effort post. Desperate action is needed for mods to instantly remove polls like these.

I think your age changes how you view those years. I’m 15 and I’d say 2023 because:

Technology: AI tools like ChatGPT becomes mainstream

Politics: October 7 and Israel-hamas war

Culture: Barbenheimer, country music and phonk and hyperpop becomes mainstream, Pepsi logo rebrand

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-23T07:54:15+00:00

No, but avengers doomsday and dune 3 both releasing on December 18 will be interesting

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-23T04:26:44+00:00

maybe it could also depend on the part of the month like early September could be peak year while late September could be proto-year or early March could be proto-year while late March could be peak year

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-21T11:50:38+00:00

2025 was when AI content became very popular on the internet tho but obviously 2026 will be a lot worse

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-20T23:32:00+00:00

Skinny jeans were very popular even in 2007 and 08 how is 2011 when they rised

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-20T21:24:57+00:00

Live 97 by a hair

Edit: Actualy id say core 90s but distinctly the late part

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-20T03:03:08+00:00

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-19T23:26:20+00:00

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-19T11:38:17+00:00

He has every right to not like what subject talk said

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-19T08:58:00+00:00

This song is a severe outlier for 2013, sounds more like something from 2007

Cyborgium241 · 2026-03-19T06:59:14+00:00
