Personalized NCCA Florida State Seminoles Christmas Sweater

September 12, 2023

Nothing sums up 00’s era writing in any medium more than this line. Books, comics, games, movies, everything was grimdark, the grimmer and darker, the Personalized NCCA Florida State Seminoles Christmas Sweater and it was passed off as “mature” and “realistic”. Personally, I think it has to do with people who were teens and early 20’s going into adult-hood into the 00’s and just getting severely disillusioned with the world. Bush, 9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, wealth inequality skyrocketing, inflation, school costs, constant African genocides. Everything just seemed to be going to shit so quickly from the 90’s and it was rough for people who went from 90’s teens/young adults to hitting adulthood in that era. So for them, that level of shocking grimdark was what they felt reality was like, because reality in the 00’s was pretty fucked up when that was your first taste of the adult world. That’s my take at least, and why this kind of shock value and grimdark writing was so popular in that era, with lots of terrible decisions by companies to chase that trend, incredibly poorly more often than not.
