I didn't realize it at the time cause I was only 13, but fuck, the Millenium was a fucking bust. I was re-reading some articles on all the old Y2K theories...there was so much fucking hype. They were predicting total chaos. Many religious extremist said it would be the apocalypse. But NOTHING happened. Not even a terrorist attack. The whole thing went smooth just like any other year.

Like I said, at the time this didnt mean shit to me cause I was just a kid, but had I been older I wouldve been so damn excited, and ultimately very dissapointed. The original predictions for Y2K sounded like a homegrown group's wet dream. Such a god damn bust.

Anyway, I went to Universal Studios. What did you do for Y2K?

I hid in the bunker under my house that my mum spent £30,000 building with her own hands. In the process she lost sight in one eye, 3 fingers, a leg and an arm. Looking back it wasn't really worth the effort, butn ow we have a pretty cool games room.

Nah, I dont remmber what I did, was probably at jamies dunno.

I remember it... I remember loads of Jehovah's Witnesses coming to my house saying it was going to be the end of the world for sure..... But they still keep coming to this day....

It was a big let down... the Y2K bug was meant to be big... But only thing I ever read taht happened was this guy got a million pound bill from a video shop saying he was 1000 years late with a video.

Apart from that... Nothig much would happen... everything is all normal... Same ill not get to see the next Y3K :( would prob be more fun.

went to a big hall with entire collection of family and friends. there was music and fireworks and crap.

didn't get drunk though...hadn't encountered the evils of alcohol at that stage. yeah I guess it was a bit of an anticlimax...but still something cool to say that you've lived through.

I'd just turned 10, I remember going to bed early and being woken up for it. We went up onto some hill to watch the fireworks from the skytower, but it rained so I didn't see shit.
