Believing zodiac is "shirk", you can't believe stars determine fate, Allah SWT the only God, determines all luck and bad luck. All celestial bodies are just unliving objects, rotating and doesn't care about you. God created the laws of universe. Why whole universe spin just to make you sleep at night? the dense earth knows no sleepy human, sleepy human does not make the earth turn the sun into night. all because God created human. Praise be to Allah the lord of this world. Allah SWT is not willing with any shirk. Shirk is cautious. Many kind and small. If you die in a state of shirk, you will be in hell forever. 'Shirk' not a sin, shirk is a way of associating partners (not figuring God almighty) the only God, to be worshiped, hoped for, fate, worship, prayer, and reasons for deeds (rewards - sins). Then the claim of creator of the world, as the nature of the most almighty, and the nature of the most praiseworthy. Then those reasons make a kind of shirk. Like drawing animate creatures (rivalling God in creating living creation), may we be safe from all polytheism/shirk, then repent from sins (some sins are bleached in hell first) but after giving creed, converting to Islam, it is important to worship God, fulfill the (iman)believing pillars, and islam pillars. May our life not be missed, may our life fulfill it all. We hopefull we dont end up in the hereafter with not enough. Trying to find, study, do good deeds for a safe afterlife. May we always ask Him for guidance, take refuge in Him from going astray, and ask Him for forgiveness from all our mistakes.
Hadith: [Prophet Muhammad said: "Whoever bears witness that there is no god but Allah, alone with no partner, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger, that 'Isa is the slave and Messenger of Allah, and His word which He communicated to Maryam, and a spirit from Him; and that Paradise is true and Hell is true, Allah will certainly admit him into Paradise, regardless of the deeds which he has done." Sahih/Authentic. - [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
The Ruling of Drawing Pictures or Cartoons
The original ruling for this problem can be found in a hadith of the Prophet PBUH: مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً فَإِنَّ اللهَ مُعَذِّبُهُ حَتَّى يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا الرُّوحَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِحَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا
"Whoever makes pictures, will be punished by Allah till he puts life in it, and he will never be able to put life in it." Sahih al-Bukhari (2225) In another narration, it states: كُلُّ مُصَوِّرِ فِى النَّا
يَجْعَلُ لَهُ بِكُلِّ صُورَةٍ صَوَّرَهَا نَفْسًا
فَتُعَذِّبُهُ فِي جَهَنَّمَ
"All the painters who make pictures would be in the fire of Hell. The soul will be breathed in every picture prepared by him and it shall punish him in the Hell," Sahih Muslim (3945) and Imam Ahmad in his Musnad Right after that, Ibnu Abbas said:
إِنْ كُنْتَ لا بُدَّ فَاعِلًا فَاصْنَعْ الشَّجَرَ وَمَا لَا نَفْسَ لَهُ "If you have to do it at all, then paint the pictures of trees and lifeless things;" Drawing creatures is the most heavy 'shirk',
"Allah said, 'Who are most unjust than those who try to create something like My creation?" (Sahih al-Bukhari 7559) That is mean drawing is "shirk" to rival God in creating creation (living creature) Shirk in islam means ascribing a partner/ rival to Allah in lordship. Al-'Aini said: "Drawing any living creature (carving of idols) is prohibited, for it is worshipped in the times of the Jahiliyyah. It is prohibited even if it has no shadow or do not consist of matter (referring to drawings and paintings), to close the doors of misdeeds." Refer 'Umdah al-Qari Syarh Sahih al-Bukhari (18/162) All these prohibitions are in the form of Sad al-Zari'ah (closing the doors of misdeeds) in fear that it could be an object of worship and harming our belief.
Whoever died in shirk will be in hell forever
“indeed, Allah does not forgive the sin of syirk, and he forgives the sin other than that for whom he wills” (annisa 48)
Islamic Prohibition in Drawing Cartoon Animation (Living Being) So, all of you Muslims must know about this Prohibition, (or maybe some don't know yet...?) OK, here's the hadith.
•"from [Ibn Abbas] he said, 'Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said:
"Whoever makes a picture, then on the Day of Judgment he will be tortured until he breathes a soul into the picture, even though he will not be able to." (HR Nasai no. 5624)"
bro, don't you guys read carefully "He will be tortured until he breathes a soul into the image, even though he will not be able to." this means doom forever, eternal in hell forever.
Drawing animate creatures is also one of the branches of shirk (associating partners with Allah) in terms of competing Allah in creating creatures.
and very often we hear that Allah DOESN'T FORGIVE the sin of shirk (meaning that at the reckoning it is not forgiven, but in the world it is forgiven if you repent)
No matter how much they argue about the meaning of this ban, going back and forth about takwil here and there, or this ustad's opinion...
But actually the hadith is very clear, right? this is not just about statue, and not only for worship (meaning those who are afraid the image being worshiped) based on this audition of hadith
"I heard the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam say:
"Allah 'azza wajalla said; Who is more unjust than the one who "creates like My creation"
means "Create as I create"
and God's prohibition to make pictures by threatening to blow the spirit not because of the image, worshiped besides Him but because those people compete Allah in create being so that it is challenged to breathe in the spirit
Don't narrow your life with excuses,
"I don't have any hobbies other than drawing" "I'm already talented here" "already have a lot of followers"
GOD'S EARTH IS WIDE,
Insya Allah, if you leave something because of Allah, Allah will replace it with something better.
"Isn't Allah's earth wide, so you can emigrate on that earth?" (annisa: 97)
"And whoever migrated (hijrah) of Allah, surely they will get this earth migration wide and (provision) a lot." (annisa: 100)
"Indeed, if you leave something because of Allah, surely Allah will give you something better" (hr.ahmad)
The ruling of taking picture (photo maker/tashweer)
Taking picture or video with camera is haram, because hadith said we should destroy every picture we found, when it printed. so taking picture with camera is haram total too.. Because it producing living being picture
مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً فَإِنَّ اللهَ مُعَذِّبُهُ حَتَّى يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا الرُّوحَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِحَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا
"Whoever makes pictures, will be punished by Allah till he puts life in it, and he will never be able to put life in it." Sahih al-Bukhari (2225)
Abu Sa’id al-Khudri narrated that the Prophet PBUH said: “The angels do not enter a house in which there are statues or pictures.” (Narrated by Imaam Ahmad; see also Sahih al-Jami’, 1961)
Ali radhiallahu'anhu was once sent to an area, and among the things that Rasulullah ordered him to do was as follows:
لا تدع صورة إلا طمستها ولا قبرا مشرفا إلا سويت
Leave no image without obliterating it, nor leave any elevated grave without leveling it (Muslim)
"Hadiths that discuss the law of drawing are general, whether by painting by hand or with a tool such as a camera. Then the ulama who prohibited it refuted the ulama who allowed camera photos by stating that the reasons put forward were only logical and could not refute the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. They also forbid it on the grounds that photos taken from a camera are still called shuroh (pictures) even though they are produced using a tool, but they are still called that. Among the scholars who think like this is the author's own teacher, Shaykh Sholeh Al Fauzan -hafizhohullah-. We heard directly when he explained the law of images from the book Ad Durun Nadhid by Muhammad bin 'Ali Asy Syaukani, 18 Muharram 1433 H.

This is why they use 27 year old actors for high school movies. They used to actually look 27
They really did... I think there just more mature then people nowadays
Just googles some graduation pic from 2010-2020.
Many of them still looks 30. Especially male tho.
@@epicmetod idk, at my HS, in 2012, everyone looked 17-18. Unless you were one of the rare ones with a beard, they looked 21
@@DanRichter Its not common indeed, i too have a friend that everyone called him "uncle". Puberty is magic.
it's also cause child labour laws and shows like riverdale film at hours minors can't work at and over working a minor has consequences demi lovato is the only example of that i can think of where she graduated as a minor so they worked her like an adult and she said it was stressful and bad for her.

This makes me sad. Nowadays all the kids got their faces burried in their smartphones. Anxiety, loneliness, depression rates are up too.
I graduated high school in 2000. This was the way kids were exactly. I graduated in Minnesota. Miss this time in history.
I was class of 2006 in Florida. I was in middle school in 2000 though but I definitely miss it so much!
Damn, this guy was friends with half of the High School, including professors.

I’m in hs right now and I every time I look around in the hallway, I barely see a phone out and everyone’s just talking and laughing. Same at lunch, on the bus etc
@@zndrlol6204 literally its not that different from back then no one really uses phones unless we have lunch but people are very social.

80/90s kids got to enjoy the last slice of pre-digital life in human history.... really makes you think.
We enjoyed every bite of it wish we could go back for seconds 😂😂😂😂
The group is called "Xennials"...kids born between '77 - '83. Late Gen X and early Millennials. What distinguishes this group is that they had an analog childhood and a digital adulthood.
I'm glad I got to be a part of it. I love technology, internet, smartphones, etc, but I often miss the days when we were disconnected. Definitely pros and cons of each. This video was a nice flashback to high school (c/o 2002 🥳).
Born in 82. It was awesome.
@@jboogie6921 And if you're born between 83 and 95 ? you are Zennials ?

@boi mac I disagree. When I look back at my experience in high school everybody (including myself) look so young and physically child-like. And these people look like that probably haven't changed that much. Idk, it's weird
Does anyone else wish that they were living in those days cause they looked and seemed more fun than today
would be nice to know that nobody is on there phones and there’s no drama over the phone
WildfootTV I was 12 in 2001 and I truly wish I could go back to those days..
@@roxyfoxyyy7 yeah i know I was only 2 when this was recorded your pretty lucky
WildfootTV I will say it was pretty awesome... although I would have loved to grow up in the 80s too.
WildfootTV what was cool about 2001 was that it had a good balance of technology. At that time it hadn’t taken over our lives yet. Then, the internet was becoming more popular and you also had cell phones.. of course I sound like a major hypocrite typing this on my iPhone though 🤷🏻♀️😂
Man this video just shows how much social media has changed everything
Graduated 2000. It’s crazy that lookin at footage of my class today would be like looking at footage from the class of ‘77 back then. The older you get, the more you realize how quickly time goes by.
Class of 2000 here as well, and I feel like I graduated 10 years ago, not 23
It really does go by too fast.
Times truly a thief 😢
It’s crazy how everyone was social and full of energy compared to now..
SiR GriNdeR people say this but it can still be like that now but people idolize social media too much. I was 8 years old in 2001.
Jayy Ahmad right. Everyone’s got their necks down and heads in their screens now. No one really looks around and tries to make convo
At that time, people really got together and had real conversations, there was no social media, no smartphones like now
You are a fucking liar
Gimmie a break, I was in high school during that time and this was not normal. It was the last day of high school, of course everyone was happy and social
Is it possible to feel nostalgic about a place you've never been? I wasn't even in an American high school, but this was 34 minutes of straight nostalgia. The early 2000s were great
@Conway Twitter agreed! It was a great time to be alive lol I'm class of 2001 just like these kids.
Look up the word 'hiraeth.'
Is it possible that American's High School have their final day before the holidays
It's the beginning of summer
Same energy I´m not even American.
I remember my high school like this. I was shy and didn’t really fit in but I loved the social and friendly part no doubt. Glad I was a part of such generation especially cause it’s once in a lifetime thing.
And our movies were the bomb!
@@Michael_Chandler_KeatonFacts 💯🎯

The 2000’s are iconic. Great music, great movies, great tv shows, great memories, great times.
Honestly, the 2000s felt like they would last forever. 2000 to 2009 felt like a literal lifetime to me, by the time that decade ended I had totally forgotten about how life felt at the start of it.
This is not the case now. The 2010s and now the 2020s are moving SO much more quickly yet much less seems to be changing.
Just think of the comedy movies alone from 2000-2010 with hits such as: Wedding Crashers, Anchorman, Old School, Dodgeball, Team America, Bad Boys 2, Superbad, Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead, Step Brothers, Road Trip, Scary Movie Series, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Get him to the Greek, Pineapple Express, Paul, Meet the Parents/Fockers and the list goes on. There are so few good movies anymore, let alone comedies.
It was okay
90s better lol
Yea. 9/11. Endless wars. Barry Obama. The beginning of the end.
This was the same year as my graduating class. Back then, I couldn't wait to get out. Now, after 18 years of 9 to 5 office drudgery, I have to say I miss it. Those four years of high school seemed like an eternity back then. Enjoy it while it lasts, kids. There's no going back to it.

So much changed in 20 years. Not just technology, but society in general
In a way a lot changed 20 years before this also, would have been just out of the 70s.
We are now raising kids! Hopefully we instill some of the coolness we had then.
Some for the better, such as more acceptance of LGBTQ people.
Times were so different 20 years ago. Can't believe how fast time flies by. Now we're in 2022 and it's so different now days.
@@RB01.10 no one is accepting groomers come on
I graduated from high school back in 2001 and this is exactly how I remember kids. The school I went to had people that looked just like this. No social media yet and things were still very 90's. The mindset was different back then and from what I hear the kids today are not as happy in school.
As someone who has two HS teachers in their family, I've been given evidence to the contrary. Oddly enough, HS is a lot calmer on average these days and kids are generally better behaved. However, the drawback seems to be that a lot of them are better behaved because they simply don't have any social skills. It's just a different time, but kids are kids always.
Purely anecdotal on my part, but last year I went to visit my old stomping grounds from high school ( I graduated around the millennium too) and one of my friends' son said that a lot of kids are depressed. For whatever that is worth....
@Boston 508617 But pretty soon the workplace becomes filled with so many snowflakes that it's the new normal. I interned at a startup a year ago and the average age was like 25. No one seemed to care about their work and just showed up to get a paycheck. In ten years all management is going to be like that too.
@@sirmarshall9521 It's possible that they're more well-behaved precisely because of that lack of social skills -- which often leads to anxiety and depression. The school bullies of old were often the happiest kids in school. Being well-behaved is not the same as being happy.
@Boston 508617 spoken like a true reactionary tool
It was a great idea to decide to film these moments. These are pure gold.
23 years ago!! ffs! i swore these days felt like forever
Everyone in high school nowadays is tired and depressed lol

I graduated 1 year earlier. The hairstyles, the clothes, the cadence in people's voices... it's all so familiar. Scary to think it's been 20 years
I know like where has the time gone? Time flies by way too fast.
"The cadence in people's voices". So true. It's something I've never thought of until this post.
The early 00s were basically an extension of the late 90s
I think any time before social media still resembles the 90s vibe (up to 2004/05)
Yup. The first 2 or 3 years of every decade is generally an extension of the previous decade. Especially back then. Now not so much.
The best part of this video is the final few moments. After a half hour of goodbyes and giving each other crap, we get a silent walk off campus for the last time, with just one brief look back. Love it.
Damn I graduated HS in 2000. The best time of my life. Everything was better pre 9-11.
omg so cool
I graduated ‘01
@Kaoklai Siamratanakit thats not true dont listen to the old heads

Graduated in 2005, and never had regrets ever. The early 2000’s can never be copied
I would give away everything to go back to a time like this. No cellphones, social media. People just vibing. I genuinely wonder what has all these social media platforms have done for us.

I'm 55. I don't know why I'm watching this video, but it does look like time that's long gone...
In brief, the 80's was a pretty cool decade to live in, and although it wasn't perfect, life seemed bright. Then the brightness dimmed as the 90's rolled around and I can't say I was super happy in the decade.
After 911, it seemed a kind of nastiness was in the air and whilst things changed, it wasn't clear if things were getting better or worse. You were just waiting for things to brighten up again, like they were in the 80's. Hell, I was beginning to miss the 90's by 2004.
I've watched the past 20 years come from what you see in this video, to this weird world of selfies, superficiality, and a culture of self-interest and detachment.
I'm glad to see people fighting against racism, and for the rights of people and their sexual orientation. However, it's just hard to know if some things that claim to have altruistic intensions are really just wolves in sheep's clothing. It's weird that there's a movement against free speech, when it was vital part of my upbringing.
I was a pretty miserable teenager and I had seen teachers punch and slap their pupils - so I wasn't from anything rosey and perfect.
However, the things I'm reading from the younger posters about modern schools is inconceivable.
@@Unknown-rz1sj People who were not around a certain decade tend to over estimate it. The music didn't seem as good then as it does now. Hindsite can fool the mind into thinking things were better than they really were. There was a lot of mediocrity in pop culture in that time period too. There was a lot of time I spent watching MTV, bored out of my mind due to seeing the same old Bryan Adams video for the 15th time in a day. It was expected that pop and rock artists create good songs because that was what they were employed to do. If you were an 80's teenager, you might be free from the rubbish you have today, but you wouldn't be thinking you live in a great decade and if somebody described the 2020's to you as an 80's kid, you would want to be in the 2020's in a heartbeat. The thought of communicating with people all over the world on the internet couldn't even be imagined in the 80's. You relied on TV, movies and music for stimulation.
@Newbuild Muse WTF are you talking about?
That is a brilliant post dr T and although I’m only 39, I echo the same thoughts and concerns. I see things in the younger generations that genuinely concern me. I see some things that really need to be corrected and turned around but I don’t see it happening.
@@drt162 that’s is true but I also remember the flip side of the boredom - it forced many of us to go outside and go for a walk or a bike ride. Go explore adandoned buildings or woods, get friends to play baseball, go to the mall or gathering spot. Kids these days literally don’t have to leave their room as they can talk to friends through zoom or face-time. I see it too, I live in a small town and it will be a beautiful summer day and I rarely see kids or teens outside .. same goes for the nighttime, very rarely do I see kids walking around or riding bikes. It is almost eerie as I guess they are inside staring at their phone 😳😳
The 80s and 90s had their share of boredom but I’m so glad I grew up without social media.
Oh and we were much more ‘fit’ as kids back then compared to todays youth. The obesity problem is pretty disturbing
@@brianmeen2158 Very true... but I think the pandemic has made people even re-think things like traveling, clubbing, etc... The kids are more like the geriatrics on The Simpsons that walk back into the nursing home because they spotted some teenagers.
The summers of 00 and 01 were the best times in my life. I was 20 years old then and would give my left testicle to go back in time. Is it weird i always search for vids of people i never knew from another continent just to see how they experienced those days, to remind me how the world looked back then? Makes me feel nostalgic, quite sad, thats it long gone but its something i cant stop doing.
I just turned 41 and I keep thinking of the 2000 time period often. It is now beginning to feel like a very long time ago and I would say maybe 5 or 10 years ago the early 2000's were still current but ever since 2020 it's eerie how long ago this all was. I remember being a skinny 18 year old then just figuring things out and now I am 41. The saying is so true when people say Life moves fast. It does.
This looks like a quintessential 90's movie. Damn, must have been good times before the rise of smartphones.
It was! But take this video with a grain of salt. This is the LAST day of school, so obviously there is nothing but smiles and giggles. We went through a lot of the same struggles the next generation goes through. But we didn't have social media or phones and life was definitely simpler as our worlds were smaller.

People commenting here need to recognize that part of the reason why everyone looks happy, social, and joyful is in part because it's the last day of school. Also, when someone whipped out a camera in school back then, that was a novelty that might have caused to you perk up for the camera.
This is definitely it. I know when I went to school we often had final tests on the last day, so it didn't really look like that until after you finished your final and were just hanging around waiting for the day to end.
I remember a time when people were friendly with everyone like this too. This makes me feel really old since im class of 96 but people were just better back in the day.
Oh man the late 90s and early 2000s were the days. So much nostalgia, so much pain
got any stories?
the difference between living in reality and living in the world inside your phone
Shut up you hipocrite
Do you even know what people do on their phones? People complain about technology, yet have no idea how many things it can do. I can google the questions to lifes biggest questions and have the answer in less than a second. I I can talk to and see my family members who live a whole continent away. I can read/watch the news, watch movies, read books, study, talk with my friends, and more, just on my phone. Technology, whether you want to admit it or not, _is_ reality.
@@zbdmo4914 _"People complain about technology, yet have no idea how many things it can do. I can google the questions to lifes biggest questions and have the answer in less than a second."_
Yes, true. And you know what the majority of people look for instead? Whatever the Kardashians are doing; "reality" TV; spiritually living nearly 24/7 within the confines of social media instead of living in reality itself; or just doxxing people into oblivion for any given dumb reason. Y'know, stupid tabloid quality garbage.
What FOMH is trying to say is that so many people are _constantly_ glued to their phones rather than keeping tabs on the world around them outside the colorful 4K screen.
@@FourFourSeven I see your point. But, what do you think those people would be doing without phones? They wouldn't be going outside marvelling at nature. You sort of said it yourself. " _tabloid quality garbage_ ." Instead of looking at what the Kardashians are doing on reality TV, they would just read tabloids. Gossip columns. "Low quality news", as some would say. Without screens, those people would be doing the _exact same thing_ but just... not on screens.
To be honest, I don't think technology is the main problem. "So many people are constantly glued to their phones." I used to read a lot, so this statement is funny to me because people would often tell me that I was glued to my book. Now I hear people say that others are too focused on phones, and to me I don't really see the issue. People will find a way to distract themselves and ignore the world and avoid talking to people regardless. Phones and technology is just another method. Before phones were invented, people would read. Daydream. Just simply ignore people.
But I do understand your point.
Technology makes it easier to _access_ this, which is what I think most people mean when they complain about technology. And I kind of agree a little bit.
edit: I guess this reply was kinda useless because I started arguing against you but then just said I agreed with you in the last part. Oh well.
@@zbdmo4914 Of course it can do a lot of good but it changed everything. It brought the worst out in ppl. Nothing is the same.
I think class of 2007 was the last class like this. Smartphones came out, and everything was always in your face. Actually having to have a camera is why these moments are as genuine as they are.
07 ftw. bruh!
Yeah I was 08 and there was only a few people that had smart phones. Most kids, if they had a phone, would text. But it hadn't really taken off... High school was like this for me. I'm sure it's unrecognizable now.
I started high school in 2012, and even then not everyone had their phones at school. I didn't have mine at school. It slowly got to be more and and more though.

I graduated in 01 and honestly, I don't care if I sound old, things WERE better then. People were healthier, friendlier, and all together life was more enjoyable. The music was more diverse, you had the ability to agree to disagree and still be friends, politics wasn't shoved down your throat 24/7 and kids were allowed to live and make mistakes without it ruining their lives. I honestly really miss the pre 9/11 world. I love CZcams, I love being able to have my smartphone everywhere I go but if I could trade in the few cool things about today and go back in time before those towers fell...I'd do it with no hesitation, even if I had to be home by my 11 o'clock curfew to make it to Trig on time again 😂

Of course we realize how old we sound saying it, but times were simpler, people seemed happier, we had just enough technology to make life easier without making life more complicated.

I felt you. I was freshmen during then. I wanna look older during that time.

Well, I didn't know why reading felt so difficult. Now, reading is very easy if I read the scripts in writers perspective lol. I BAD LOT OF TEMPTATIONS. They look like older 20s to younger 30s.

For me, and it's not even close, my college years were MUCH MORE fun and meaningful. I hope most people don't "peak" during high school, as you got so many years still to live.
It depends to the person I think.. for me College days were FAR better than high school. People are more sensible but also fun at the same time.

I didn’t really have any friends in my class (01). Most of the people that I made friends with were all upper class men when I was a freshman. Every year a group of them would graduate and move on until I was left alone by the people one year a head of me. I’m not sure why this was, I got along better with the older kids than I did the kids that were in my own class. Had a lot to do with sports also, that’s where I met most of them and we became close. There were literally about 25 of us that hung out all the time. We had to take several cars whenever we went anywhere (movies, to eat, the mall, anywhere). Those were the best times of my life. Thanks for posting this and reminding me of the good times.
High schoolers used to look SO OLD. When I was in elementary and middle school, that's what I thought -- and this video proves I was right. When I got to high school, everyone looked so YOUNG. Nowhere near as old-looking as these guys.
1:49 is the most 2001 thing I've ever seen
I'm a Gen Z, and it's really hard to wrap my head around life without the internet. I think my generation has it a lot harder than people can understand, our lives are much more fast paced and dynamic than ever before in history. We're never truly bored and we're never truly disconnected from life and the outside world, which is a very bad thing. Technology isn't addicting, the internet is.
Thanks for sharing, this is way more important than anyone at the time could have guessed.
I graduated 2001. We had broadband internet then but the main difference was no smart phones with social media apps which is really what separates Gen Z. Internet back in 2001 meant you went on an actual desktop computer so there was a clear separation between that and when you left your PC.
@@vlcheish very true especially when you realize only 50% of US house holds had computer's or internet .The internet was not as pervasive in the early 2000s like how it became in the mid late 2000's. Personally I didn't know anybody with a home computer that had internet until around 2004 and then my wife in 2005 bought a Dell computer and cable internet.
not for me
I’m an “older” gen z but I disagree. If you have self discipline and boundaries than whatever is going on on the internet will have very little effect on you and ur lifestyle. Try deleting any social media that doesn’t serve you and focus on what you want to achieve in life. The internet will always be there but you will not.

The last generation to apply to college without the internet.
@FN-1701AgentGodzillaRangerPrime-El Yes, dial-up internet became affordable to the general public, say, '94 to '96. I had broadband (relatively speaking) at home since 1999.
I started college in 2000, and we could check out the classes available online, but still had to manually fill out a sheet with our desired classes, stand in line for an hour or two to register them, and if they weren't available or were full, you had to hunt down the professor and get them to manually sign off on allowing you into the class, OR, check back the day after classes started to see if people dropped out, then get permission (manually) to fill in that slot.
Then you had to stand in line again for an hour or two to add in all your classes. It was stressful, chaotic, and frustrating. Luckily the next year everything moved online (you still had to manually get permissions, but at least you *knew* you had to early on in the process). God bless the internet.
Not quite. I graduated in 2001 as well, and we had the earliest versions of online application.

No smartphone zombies. Man I miss early 00s and late 90s where we actually went out to socialize. We actually had to go to a music shop and buy our favorite artists album's and also go to libraries to do research. People were more active and alive. Technology is to advanced and in the wrong hands.
I think in your 20s, even to a lesser extent 30s, it can feel like high school was "just kinda back in the day". But once you're 38-40 and your peers have KIDS that age, the reality of how long ago that time was just smacks you in the face.
The teens here were born in 1983 (and maybe late 82), so just turned 40 or will this year.

So yes, stork, unless u had a really bad time back then, obviously it wouldn't be FOR YOU, the golden days. but for the majority, "back then", whenever it was, were apparently better days than today. Apparently any day than today was better. So you miss what life is all about. Yesterday has already gone. You can almost argue it never even happened. Tomorrow is not promised. All there is, is NOW.

One thing to keep in mind with this video: It's very easy to watch this and think that everyone was so chilled out and relaxed and fun, especially if you weren't born yet during these times. I can tell you that the cameraman is definitely one of the popular kids at this HS which is evident by all the girls coming up to him, asking him to sign their yearbook, etc. If you were one of the socially awkward kids highschool was just as painful and lonely back then as it is today.
