the forecast is for nostalgia

American Apparel brings back the 90s.

The 90s are when I was at the North American Aspirational Age (25) and thus, off limits for anyone else to plunder.

It got me thinking how people will be reviving, say, the early 2000s. I can't even think of any fashion cues or trends that really say early 2000s. Dot com crash? Invading tinpot dictatorships?

Oh I know -- geocaching. Yeah, in 2020 they'll be selling appealingly clunky GPS units, where modern models are probably going to be the size of dust particles and thus built into every hairbrush.

What else?
