WANT TO HEAR something bloody terrifying?
Most of this year’s Junior Cert students were born in 2000/2001. You know what that means? They missed an entire millennium and they have no memories of…
1. Being terrified of Y2K and the unknown havoc it might wreak
2. And the immense relief when it turned out to be a whole load of nothing
Phew.
3. The time Gay Byrne hosted Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
4. Watching quality homegrown television shows like The Fame Game
In fact, it’s safe to say that they don’t remember a time when Liz Bonnin and Caroline Morahan were the coolest gals on television.
5. Rooting for Anna Nolan for Big Brother
The whole nation being obsessed with Big Brother, full stop.
6. Mel Gibson being (a) a fanciable man and (b) a rom-com lead
Oh, how times have changed.
7. Sobbing when Tom Hanks lost Wilson :(
8. Being haunted by this child’s face in the video shop
9. The queues to buy this!
And the pressure to finish it before all your friends.
10. This being the coolest phone on the market
11. Spending hours upon hours playing this
12. What a mahoosive deal it was when these two got married
#goals
13. A time when this song wasn’t merely a nostalgic banger
And was actually number one for weeks on end.
