It’s wild to think twenty years ago was only 2005 when it feels like so much time has passed. There’s something about 2005 that feels like it could belong in a museum. Maybe it’s the digital cameras, the over-saturated flash, or the fact that every computer looked bigger than our heads.

These photos come from a time that somehow feels ancient, yet it was just a couple of decades ago. The hairstyles, the fashion, the tech, even the way people posed, all feel like glimpses from another era entirely. 

It’s pure early 2000s nostalgia, preserved in pixels that have aged like vintage film. Grab your stored flip phone, fire up LimeWire (mindful of the viruses), and step into a time when everything looked 200 years old.
