What were you doing on New Years' Eve 1999?

[Mr. Negative]

my girl at the time had gotten on my nerves so bad that I was hoping and wishing the world would end so I could get some relief.

 

[Mfalme_Perez]

My Step-Dad builds computers and told us nothing was going to happen. He laughed about it because nikkas really thought it was the end of the world.

I personally thought that I would wake up to flying cars and people using tubes as transportation like they do in Futurama. Boy was I mad when that bum ass car my parents had didn't start flying.


Now that I think about it, we kinda still go through tubes as transportation and it's called the Subway, lol. I was nine by the way.

2K Randy Moss was the most unstoppable player in video games after Tecmo Bowl Bo

 

[BmoreGorilla]

I was 18 and just finished my first semester of college. I was outside most of the night drinking and smoking with my peoples. Some of us let off a few shots when the ball dropped

Deep down everybody thought all the lights were gonna go out at 12

 

[Texico niggo]

Watching BET waiting for uncut to come on

 

[Daio]

I was 15 I don't remember

 

[Pazzy]

Whoops. My fault. I was wrong. Sorry. December 31st 1998 is not new years eve 1999.

As for that day, I was nervous as fukk but after the ball dropped, I went back on the dreamcast playing soul caliber. 2000 was a wack year compared to 99. That was when shyt got really corny.

 

[Bless't]

I was 17, visiting family in Cleveland.

Watched the ball drop and then...

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Locked up. Honestly I was waiting for the doors to open cause I was expecting a riot and somebody to kill me.

 

[Skooby]

Sleeping...

I was 22. It's just another day and doesn't mean much to me.

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

Eating sweet potato pie and collard greens while watching some PPV special with Prince. Went back & forth between that and playing Tekken 3 on the Playstation. Everyone in middle school was bugging about Y2K.

 

[Deflatedhoopdreams]

Stayed up watching our HP desktop computer from the couch hoping it didn’t malfunction. Had Windows 95 on that bytch

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

I was in bed staring at my clock waiting for it to hit 12:00

 

[Dilltastic VolWon(derful)]

Looking back that could’ve been one of the biggest scams in modern history based on how much money was made by certain companies. Had all of us getting y2k compatible tech, stocking up on food and people prepping for the worst

 

[newworldafro]

I think I was in church but definitely believed the Y2K hype

At church, which over 100 years old at the time.
