Wonder why it looks like 1982 outside.
I can smell the engine fumes in this picture
Actually 2002 was pretty good in terms of climate change. The only big ass car was the van, the ford truck and explorer. Everyone else was barely getting into SUV space wasting. Catalytic converters were a daily thing and you had to pass smog just like today.
Someone isn’t a millennial and now made me feel extra old. They really looked at a pic of the 80’s and figured it was close enough.
This is more what 2002 looked like
2002 was 23 years ago, 1989 was 23 years before 2002, so the math checks out
There were 13 years between 1989 and 2002. Math does not check out.
“1989 is a decade closer to 2002 than we are now” is not the message I wanted to get from the internet today 😭
Everyone help with the math!

Ugh, time to commit sudoku
Coincidentally, in one of the reposts of this pic on Reddit the commenters identified by the billboards that the photo is in fact from 1979.
Save enough money to buy/mine at least 40BTC, then retire early
Don’t loose the 7btc for 7€ each Biy more, even.
It’s disheartening to know what lesson the last 23 years taught you.
What would you do?
Save my wife, father in law, cats, a dog and my home and possessions from a house fire.
I’m deeply sorry to hear you went through that, that’s awful. I guess my question is more asking for clarification on the lessons the comment OP should have learned in the last 23 years
Use the money from the Bitcoin to support a left leaning party.
Sell the Bitcoin to buy off the DNC to force them to stop backing Hilary in 2016.
Write a detailed cautionary tale about the future in the form of a cyberpunk novel that either doesn’t gets published or that is largely received as a cool roadmap instead of a warning.
Oh so you wrote “Do not invent the Torment Nexus”.
Tell people the funniest joke about who would become the president of the USA, and that the president would be a lap dog of Russia.
do I wake up in 2002 at the age I was that year or as my current age?
current age: find my family, convince them I am who I say I am, and get a bunch of preventable health issues checked out
age in 2002: play super smash bros lol
Tell everyone I know to STOP teaching old people how to use the internet!!!
So much this 😭
- assassinate an infamous real estate mogul
- turn in a well connected financier that owns an island
- expose the Pandora and HSBC papers
That well connected financier isn’t the only one, isn’t even the biggest or worst one. Why focus on him?
because he’s the one with the island of secrets that could take them all down.
Figure out when I can buy Bitcoin.
2009, so in 7 years.
Invest in a few companies, then invest in Bitcoin right from the start, invest some more,. become the first trillionaire by 2010, use my influence to become sort of a benevolent dictator to push for actual democracy, and eventually get multi millionaires prohibited by having counties simply place hard caps on net worth (app beyond a certain level goes to taxes)
You can’t be a benevolent trillionare. Now, rub yourself with the spices, you’re going to the oven
I would
I would use it to remove the rich from this world. Force hard taxes, hard caps on net worth
Try to short Enron, and then cry because I was a year too late
- Cry that I’ll have to deal with dial up internet again (my first broadband came around mid 2003)
- Be glad that we’re back to Windows XP, not as glad that most linux distros still suck for desktop users
- If it’s May or earlier, buy USD (I live in Brazil and that year the exchange went from 1USD ~= 2,35 in March to 1USD ~= 3,85 in October, due to elections)
- Wait, do I even have any money? Gotta hurry to the bank and see if my account exists and has what I had yesterday (2025)
- Fuck, paper money and coin for nearly everything
Hug my mother. I miss her.
Go back to sleep and hope to wake up in the 80’s.
Kill the man before he raped my brother.
