It was shite, just like every other year

2000-2009 were some darker days for me. I don't really remember much about art, culture, social life that was very good in that period.

I am misremembering? 1999 was the first tech bubble burst, then 9/11 shortly thereafter. Economy was shite, especially to those who never had a chance to reap the benefits of the good times. It was hard to find decent jobs with no experience. Then housing skyrocketed with free loans making shite unaffordable. As things turned around, all new grads were getting first dibs on entry level positions over 5 year grads slaving away in some sales based draw, pyramid scheme, subprime mortgage type "job"...then a damn hurricane hit displacing me for 8 months in another state, unable to get my car from a parking garage that was deemed unenterable while i still had to make payments on it.
All the while, fricking shitty trade school jobs start paying damn near double what an undergrad degree pays. Then housing bubble burst screwing economy again. I say screw it and take a HS degree job $13/hour just to have experience in my college degree.
Miraculously leads to a supervisor position in less than year, which then gives me experience in my degree, and all of a sudden im at 100k. Took 10 years longer than it should have. My 20s were ruined by bubbles and uplifting people who made shitty decisions.

A year before President Obama was elected the country was entering a recession, There was a period of time in 2007 when gas prices were almost $5/per gallon. And you think him becoming president ended the "good times"?

oh no. Blue collar shite birds started making bank. Low class POSs were now competition to the educated. Who do you think was wearing affliction? $120 "bedazzled" t-shirts. Trash was made to be prosperous.
Guido, plastic people, "Fancy & Fierce", dumbfricks with "new" money became your peer.
Baby boomers didnt go to school with black people, but their kids did. Educated Baby boomers didnt have to compete with grease monkeys, but their kids did. Baby boomers didnt have to live next to people who parked on their lawn, but their kids did.
Everything that a 4.0 GPA , scholarship, undergrad degree, non-felon, great credit would have afforded you in tye 80-90's went to absolute shite. You were stuck behind the 8 ball with "privledge" while knuckle draggers "deserved" opportunities.
Again, frick that decade. frick it to hell.

What a piece of Southern trash.

Graduated college in 2009 at the peak of the recession and just kinda bounced around random low paying jobs until the economy started to pick back up around 2012.
Pretty dark years for me, with some notable exceptions, and I feel like I’ll never get that lost time back.

That's when he first generation of McMansions started being built off 100% financing.
Trailer park people were allowed to buy homes with no money.
Essentially, these "programs" allowed for the "shades of gray" to dirty nice areas.
