VG Virtuegen’s Journal:
Hi guys, VG here!
This is part one: 2019
Two years stick out as major years in my time on Planet Earth, and to name two of them, they are 2019 and 2023. First, with 2019, this was the last year of the 2010s Decade, and it came as things got interesting. I was in eighth grade at the time. 13 years old. 2019 was marred with problems. While I was too young to understand what Trump was doing in his first term, I DID fully understand (later, and at the time underestimated) COVID-19.
2019 has more than just COVID starting up. Not only was COVID coming, but my uncle died. Plus, I was nearly suicidal that year. Plus, Memorial Day tornados ripped through Ohio.
But hey, glass half full, 2019 had good moments. MEMES! Some notable memes that I remember as the Internet went into the Surreal Era. There were some memes I remember from back in the day, that, while being cringe now, were a major influence on things. The And I Oop and VSCO Girls things with their GODDAMN scrunchies and "sksksks" laughs were something my friends made fun of daily.
Episode 22 of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind "The G in Guts / The 'G' in Gozzo" had a popular meme that I watched when I binged all six parts of the anime and eventually read most of the parts of manga. In that episode, Narancia spills wine on a guy and the guys get paranoid and beat up on a guy. The meme that came from this was called Abbacchio Joins The Kicking, named for when Abbacchio joins in on beating up a random civilian in the episode.
In 2019, the phrase "OK Boomer" quickly became a pejorative for baby boomers used by Gen Z to insult them. Also, Liminal Spaces and The Backrooms were first talked about in 2019.
AND.....
Somehow, Palpatine Returned.
Movies-wise, I watched Avengers: Endgame, Rise of Skywalker, Terminator: Dark Fate, Lego Movie 2, Shazam! , and more.
TV was something I watched often, and shows like The Boys, The Mandalorian, Love, Death + Robots, Hazbin Hotel, Beastars, The Umbrella Academy, and more were on TV often.
Plus, AEW (All Elite Wrestling) was founded in 2019 and is the second biggest wrestling group behind WWE.
All in all, even with some major events that sucked, 2019 was still one of my most remembered years as a kid.
What did you do in 2019?
Ciao!
