2000s Affect

Noun

That weird brain glitch where anything from the late 20th century (like the ’90s) feels ancient, but stuff from the 2000s still seems brand new—even if it’s 15–20 years old.

2000s Baby

A 2000s baby is someone who was born from January 1st, 2000 to December 31st, 2009. They are not to be confused with 2000s kids, who experienced their childhood in the 2000s decade. Early 2000s babies (2000-2003) are primarily 2000s kids, while mid and late 2000s babies (2004-2009) are 2010s kids.
If you were born in 2008, you are a 2000s baby and a 2010s kid.

2000's born child

The children who, during their early years, felt that 1991 and 2008 were separated by multiple decades, even though these years are actually just 17 years apart. This perception stems from their limited understanding of time and the significant cultural differences between those years.
As a 2000's born child, I remember thinking that everything from the '90s felt like ancient history, even though it was only a few years before I was born!
